Really decent coffee at 10 cents a cup and unending refills are frosting on the cake. Add in one terrific waitress (Sherry) and other staff that ensured we always had a full cup of joe and that our table lacked for nothing and it adds up to a great outing. Decor may be dated but Flo's delivers where it counts.

Stopped in for breakfast at Flo's after hearing about the famous 10-cent coffee, which is…read moredefinitely one of the most unique things about the place. Breakfast itself was very basic diner fare -- eggs, toast, and the usual staples. Nothing fancy, but it was inexpensive and filled the plate. The atmosphere gave me strong old truck-stop diner vibes. Some people may appreciate that nostalgic roadside feel, but for me the restaurant felt a bit dirty and very worn down, like it hasn't had much maintenance or updating in quite a long time. One of the people dining with me ordered a lunch special of beef and mashed potatoes, and unfortunately it was extremely greasy and didn't seem freshly made. It was bad enough that they couldn't finish it. Another downside for me was that the diner is cash-only. We rarely carry cash, so we had to use the ATM, which added extra cost to the visit. Overall, Flo's is definitely a very old-school diner experience -- cheap food, tiny coffee prices, and a truck-stop style atmosphere. I'm sure that works perfectly for some people looking for a quick, inexpensive meal, but it just wasn't the right fit for me.

We were so impressed! It's very clean for a bar and the outside is beautifully finished. We had a blue moon and a burger-- it was one of the best burgers i've ever had from a restaurant. The bartender was extremely friendly and welcoming. Nice vibes all around from this little hole in the wall spot... can't wait to return on a date night :)

This was our first time to The Nest. We were interested in checking out their outdoor concert…read morearea. We arrived just as a local band was getting ready for a three hour set (4-7pm) on a Sunday afternoon. Cover charge was $5.00 each. There were quite a few people there, but there was still room to sit in the spacious outdoor deck/stage area. There's also an outside bar area to grab a drink, instead of having to run inside to the regular bar. Food was available, but we did not try anything. The indoor vathrooms were pretty small, but served the purpose. The music was very good, the sound was loud enough, without blaring out of the speakers. There's a roof over the outside deck, but it's in different sections, so the sun does shine though in areas, making it a little hot when it's hitting you. Our only complaint would be the amount of people that were smoking. There is no way to get away from the cigarette smoke wafting in your face. Other than that, it seems like a great venue to enjoy some live music, a drink and a bite to eat. We definitely plan on going back.

My buddy and I walked in to a rather empty bar with a very nice bartender who greeted us. Started with a Sierra Nevada Hazy IPA which was cold and in a chilled glass. They had 50 cent wings so we ordered up a dozen hot. They came out, looked pretty good but were not hot. Temp wise they were great but not hot so I asked what other sauces they had. They bought out: Hot sauce Gojuchang Pineapple jalapeño vodka hot sauce Mango habanero tequila hot sauce I tried all the sauces but kept going back to a combo of the mango habanero and gojuchang, it was addictive. These were so good that we got another dozen and I ordered a switchback ale to wash it down. The bartender and her mom the owner did everything to thoroughly show us a great time and we appreciated their good company and some great beer and wings. Try this place if you haven't, try it again if you have. If the wings were hotter (spicier), I could see myself going 5 stars, they did a great job

Calling it a diner may not be fair, but based on the prices and the food, I would say it is closer to diner fare than anything else. This is not to say it is not good. The garlic bread served before dinner was excellent, and was refilled with no problem. I tried the haddock dinner. The fish was meh and served with a side of pre-packaged tartar. Everyone else at my table had some variant of italian: chicken parm, stuffed shells, and ravioli. The chicken parm was basically chicken fingers covered in a red sauce with some mozzarella cheese...not very inspired. The cheese ravioli and stuffed shells looked and tasted very good. Two of my compadres ordered dessert - french silk pie and apple dumpling some thing or another - both looked good. For 4 of us, with 2 beers, a round of sodas, and 4 meals (including salads), and 2 desserts it came to $67 - not bad. If you're looking for a hole in the wall in Canastota (not known for fine dining anyway), the Three Pines will suit you just well.

Food is 5-star quality, the service is always top notch. We know each other on a first name basis. The fricken Chicken fricassee is their flagship meal. The fried haddock and rib eye steak are my second favs. You can tell how good this place is, by the huge waiting line, each evening. We always go early, early bird dining, and they never mess up! Reasonable prices, and great place to dine.

Note that Theodore's is at the old Rusty Rail location on Route 5, but owned and staffed by blending the great team from the former Delphia's in Chittenango with Rusty's unbeatables, a great move! Notably Famous for Chicken Fricassee with the Kopp's Canteen recipe, Theodore's outperforms with consistently flavorful home cooking and excellent service. Specials with buffet service are another winning area & the recent Comedy Club buffet was no exception. However, in view of the 'open bar' leading to a few unfortunate loudmouths and heckling, we recommend requiring a visible security presence in future 'open bar' affairs.
