    The Krebs is amazing and the atmosphere is adorable, chic and mildly upscale. Our sever John was great and the staff worked really well together running food and pre-bussing the table for us. The food was superb! We tried several different restaurants while visiting Skaneateles and this was my favorite place by far. The curry & pumpkin soup was delicious. Both flavors were combined perfectly and tasted decadent. It may have been my top meal of the weekend. The ribeye, filet, and scallop entrees were all amazing and have great flavor and were cooked perfectly. If you're in the area and want a romantic date night or sweet dinner with friends this is the place for you.

    Found this spot off of Tiktok. Great location especially if you are at the Sherwood Inn as we were. Decor is elegant. Beautiful bar area. Food and service were on point. Would definitely recommend if you are in the area.

    This was our second visit. The first time was 5 stars but this time it was much busier. Although the food presentation was excellent, the food was not prepared as well. We were seated at a center table which killed the normally intimate environment.

    My bestie and I had dinner at this very fine establishment on a Wednesday evening. It is very easy to find on Genesee Street and the outside of the restaurant is a beautiful nod to all of the other beautiful homes lining this street. We were greeted and seated right away by the hostess. The decor is a wonderful mix of past meets present with an eclectic mix of dining room and lounge furniture. There are actually 4 dining areas! Two have fireplaces and they add warmth to the restaurant. Our server, John, was very friendly and knowledgeable about the specials and the menu items. I had the soup special, the curried pumpkin with kick of spice, shaved coconuts lightly sprinkled into the soup and walnuts (?). I wanted another bowl because it was that good! For my main course I had the Roast Maitake set upon a mixture of great northern beans, leeks, fennel and a cashew cream sauce. I've never had a Maitake mushroom but this was seasoned beautifully and roasted making it so tender. The addition of the vegetable mixture was genius. My bestie had the Lobster Risotto which contained large pieces of lobster on top of the risotto with brown butter, butternut squash, delicate and lobster oil. She loved it! It was her birthday so they gave her a small scoop of housemade Vanilla Bean ice cream and wrote "happy birthday" in chocolate the ice cream plate. The Krebs does offer a Sunday Brunch.This was a wonderful dining experience and everyone made us feel very welcome and comfortable. We loved our dinner and would definitely go to dinner there again!!

    Braised short rib

    I went for dinner with two friends and the staff was very hospitable. They ensured we were comfortable, explained ingredients, swapped out a drink when my friend didn't love it, and were super friendly. I dine out a lot in CNY and it was clear this staff was putting in effort to provide an above-average service. Much of the staff seemed pretty green (unfamiliar with menu, dish prep, cocktails) but our waitress would immediately seek information and come back to us with answers. The food was good! We ordered a cauliflower app special which was so delicious that we ordered a second on. The gin fizzes I ordered were perfectly made. The salad was delicious but very small for the price. My friends and I enjoyed our meals, though I expected my braised short rib to fall apart. Instead it required a steak knife. A large portion of it was fat as well which was a bit disappointing, especially for the price. Great flavor though. We were in a room near the bar, with a fireplace. Unfortunately the fire place was very hot and we had it turned off eventually but it was a pretty background while it lasted. The overall vibe was very country clubby. Though there is definitely room for growth, I still give it 5 stars as it was among my top 3 overall dining experiences in CNY in 2023.

    Poached pear dessert.

    Staff were friendly, food was good. The interior is dark, and curtains were nearly closed. Walls are a dark color, as is the ceiling and the floor. A bit oppressive rather than cozy and warm. The bread choices were delicious- cheddar chive corn muffins and onion focaccia bread. I started off with a cocktail called The Belmont. It's a bourbon drink. It was my favorite part of the meal! For my entree, I ordered the blackened salmon. The veggie purée and the zucchini ribbons were delicious. The salmon was a good size portion and the flavor was wonderful but it was dry. I had to cut it with a knife, rather than simply use my fork. For dessert, I ordered the poached pear. Atypical for me, but they were out of cheesecake, which always calls my name. The pear and accompanying sides were all delicious. Overall a good meal, not spectacular. Staff were great, attentive and friendly, not obtrusive.

    So this wasn't necessarily a planned stop however it worked out very well. We were in Skaneateles for the day to attend the "Dickens Christmas thing" as I like to call it. I looked into maybe going to this restaurant a few days earlier however not knowing if we would meet the dress code or not we weren't sure, plus we didn't make reservations in advance. It worked out well though because it wasn't as formal as I thought it might be and I was able to make reservations for 5:30 at 4:45 that day. The atmosphere was incredible in this place. It looked very upscale and the entire wait staff and hostesses were very friendly. The food itself was very good, Some things like the lobster bisque for example, although tasty, were not as expected in comparison to lobster bisque we have had at other places. I don't mean this as a bad thing as a kind of gives this particular restaurant its own identity.

    We had such a pleasant time at The Krebs! We were worried we weren't going to be "fancy" enough, but we were treated with such respect and courtesy from the wonderful staff! The ambiance was cozy and beautiful. We came at the very end of brunch, and they didn't seem annoyed or tried to rush us out. They have an excellent selection of wines. Their brunch menu we felt was very reasonably priced. Everything was fresh and delicious. Some of the best chicken and waffles I've ever had, as well as the fries! Very nice experience and we will be back.

    Absolutely love this restaurant!!! the food here is so good. I've tried almost everything on the menu already and nothing has disappointed. Very great espresso martinis and appetizers. Such a perfect vibe for date night or with your best friends, and it's super classy. The service is excellent and the servers are extremely kind and helpful. One of the best restaurants in the Syracuse area. Love coming to Skaneateles and coming here

    My husband tried The Krebs for the first time to celebrate our anniversary and can't wait to return! The staff and service were wonderful and on par for fine dining. The interior felt a familiar cozy atmosphere with a sense of fine design. Being pregnant, I appreciated having a dedicated mocktail section of the drink menu with options that were truly both visually appealing and incredibly tasty. Each dish of our experience was delicious and extremely fresh, high quality ingredients.

    The best burger in Skaneateles. Their fries are incredible and not greasy. All the food is reasonably priced for the quality. The restaurant is decorated incredibly well, it's cozy and the fireplaces are a bonus. They have wonderful bar tenders who make the best cocktails, each one is carefully made and unique. The servers are tentative, friendly and informative.

    Excellent meal and service! Beet salad was one of the best…read moremy wife has had in our dining out. Calamari was very good and I would change NOT putting the calamari on top of the marinara as it made the coating soggy. Gnocchi and braised short ribs were tender and delicious, well cooked and seasoned perfectly. Seared scallops and lemon pasta were excellent. Great sear and wonderful citrus flavored pasta. Affragatto for dessert was a wonderful finish to the meal. Service was excellent, well intentioned. and not intrusive.

    I was really disappointed. I'm going to try to be nice here, but I cook at home for 5 almost every…read morenight and don't eat out often, so when I do, I'm looking for the whole experience. We were in town for an event and had one night to eat out. I wish I had picked a different place. The atmosphere was warm and our waitress was very nice but the food was mediocre, at best. The calamari appetizer was bland and chewy. The three of us didn't finish it and that's saying something because my gaggle is usually fighting for the last piece of any good calamari appetizer. The tastiest part was the bed of red sauce with spicy peppers but it lacked cohesion with the calamari. I had the braised beef ribs. Not only was it not fork tender, I've made better pot roast. I had to ask for salt and I can't remember the last time I've needed salt in a restaurant for a dish like this. The potatoes were the consistency of a thick sauce. Two stars because my husband said the lasagna was delicious, I enjoyed my wine, and the Caesar salad was good, but wait until I tell you my pepper story. So the pepper story... our waitress was very nice, but table service was a bit slow and when I asked one of the other staff for fresh ground pepper for the Caesar, she acted as if I asked for moon dust and responded, "I can bring you...pepper". Um ok, thanks, if it's not too much to ask. Our nice waitress came later with a little dish of coarse ground pepper which was appreciated by all at the table. My son thinks I should give it 3 stars because he enjoyed his pasta and meat balls but I think he's being generous because he's 12. I would have preferred dirty dishes to be cleared before new plates arrived. I don't want to shuffles plates around the table to make room.
