I was in Ithica for a day and found this place. Almost an hour drive. It better be good, I thought…read more It was a nice drive up. I found it and parking easily. I went in and ordered the fried chicken chunks, Chicaron de pollo. Nice dish. Allot of food. I don't know if they use chicken brest for the chunks. It would have been better, but it was still good. The rice and beans were also good. Except for my drive, I would come here again, next time I'm in town. I recommend.

I found this establishment while searching for food during a weekend visit. I ordered the beef stew…read morewith yellow rice and salad (large is the only option), along with the stewed chicken and plantains. I specifically asked if the plantains were fresh and was told yes, but unfortunately, they were hard and lacked flavor. The entrées were okay, but I've had better quality elsewhere. I also ordered a pineapple soda, but it was accidentally left off my order. Overall, I would have given 4 stars if the plantains had been fresh and my soda had been included.

Go to here! We need to support small businesses like this spot. Served up very similar to other…read moreplaces like this I've been to, lots of big steam trays of stewed/braised meats and veg. I got the oxtail with rice and beans and cabbage. Everything was excellent. I just wish I had asked to have more gravy added over my rice. The lady behind the counter was super nice, helped me decide what to get. It's pretty bare bones inside, just a couple tables, plastic utensils, etc. I'd be fine eating in again but I might get take out next time. Either way, go here and get some great Latino/Caribbean style food, expand your horizons. Oh before I forget. Add the pickled onion on top, it's a great counterbalance to all the rich flavors.

Would give them 3.5 stars. Agree with some other reviews that the view and atmosphere is nice but…read morenot worth the upsale price. We came as a larger group and they were nice enough for us to order from the breakfast menu as they switched over the lunch menu at 11:30am. Our table enjoyed the food but all agreed it wasn't worth the price point. I tried the chocolate croissant with homemade butter and maple bacon jam along with the Canadian bacon Benedict. The chocolate croissant was nice with the maple bacon jam but definitely not worth the price point of $12. The croissant was quite smaller, like the chocolate croissants you can get from Costco or Starbucks. The Canadian bacon eggs Benedict however was delicious and I really enjoyed it! I just am not sure again it was worth the high price point. However I definitely felt the service was missing. As we were the only ones in the dining area, I felt the service was missing the mark. The server saw we were carrying a baby in the restaurant but didn't ask if we wanted a high chair. My mother-in-law spied it in the corner and then we had to ask for it and we proceeded to set it up at the table. As I was with 2 young kids, I ordered some simple items before the main course like their chocolate croissant and fruit cup. I assumed the server would ask if we wanted those ahead of time but that didn't happen. He also had forgotten my son's drink order and which my son actually had to ask him after some time "where's my juice?" My older son had ordered the s'mores waffles and it looked good when it was delivered but as I cut some of it for me to try later on, I soon realized the batter was uncooked in the middle of most of them. I was thoroughly disappointed he had eaten some of it before I discovered it was uncooked. The server throughly apologized and they remade the order which in the end, we ended up taking home with us. They also didn't take the order off the check for us which normally that would happen. For such a classy restaurant, we would think they would know how to make waffles and for more top-notch service. I think next time we will just enjoy the nice views and choose to eat somewhere else when we are in the area.

We got the Brussels sprouts and arancini for appetizers. Both were so so. I got the 180 mocktail, which was good. The shrimp naan pizza was pretty basic but good. Our waiter seemed very nice. Based on his recommendation, we tried the banana cheesecake dessert which was terrible! Honestly, there's not much to talk about the food. But, if you want a cool space to hang out, this is your spot! They also outsource dishes from the neighboring Italian restaurant, Sagra. I probably won't be back.

809 Takeout in Greece, NY is a slice of heaven, and as a Dominican, I can say with full confidence…read morethat this place is the real deal. If you are craving authentic Dominican food, look no further. Every dish is made with love and tastes exactly like home cooking. The menu covers all the classics: pollo guisado, arroz blanco, habichuelas, pernil, moro, chicharron, and frituras, just to name a few. And if you do not see something you want, just ask! The staff goes out of their way to accommodate you and will do their best to make it happen. Speaking of staff, they are consistently friendly, warm, and welcoming every single visit. That kind of hospitality is rare and it makes the experience even better. One thing to keep in mind: the space is small with limited seating, so takeout is the way to go. But trust me, the food travels beautifully and is absolutely worth it. If you are in Greece and looking to try something new and exciting, do yourself a favor and check out 809 Takeout. You will not be disappointed!
