We stumbled upon this place, leaving 1911, wanted another drink before heading to our destination…read more The parking was easy and the lot was huge! The inside is very nice and big, we took sat at the bar because we were just having a drink and appetizer. They didn't have a drink menu, which I thought was odd. However, the bartender made us a delicious drink she said her version of Bay Breeze was a Sunset Pines, and we got two for $15. They were amazing!! We just went with the mozzarella sticks for $9 for our munchie and they were good.

I was very disappointed with my meal at The View today. I ordered the open-faced steak sandwich…read moremedium-rare, but the steak came out well-done, tough, chewy, and lacking flavor. The mushrooms were barely cooked, and the sandwich was dry. I even requested au jus in an attempt to salvage it, but unfortunately that didn't help. To make matters worse, my side salad was initially forgotten. To the server's credit, she removed the sandwich from my bill and offered to bring me something else. However, by that point I had lost confidence in the meal and declined. I ultimately ended up eating only the side salad. While the service recovery was appreciated, the food itself was a major disappointment. In the end, the only thing I ate was the side salad, which cost $8 on its own. While I appreciate the server's efforts to make things right, the food quality and execution were far below expectations. I left hungry, disappointed, and unlikely to return.

We visited The Nest Tavern and it was very good!…read more We were on a mission to take a long and winding ride through the country to see some early fall foliage, and I had been wanting to check out The Nest Tavern, located in the quaint area of Apulia Station, right near Lafayette. there was plenty of parking available on the right hand side, and we walked into the VERY RUSTIC and cozy bar/restaurant. A very busy, but friendly bartender informed me that they didn't have waitress service, but customers could simply order at the bar and then be notified with a convenient little remote buzzer that their food was ready. We both ordered the Mushroom Swiss Burger, which had nice sautéed mushrooms and melted Swiss cheese on it along with lettuce, tomatoes, and pickles. We took a walk on the wild side and ordered tater tots along with our burgers and they were very tasty with a little ketchup drizzled on them. Yes, we normally opt for slightly healthier sides with our meals, but the tater tots sounded and tasted really good! We both devoured our meals and finished every bite and truth be told, did not eat another thing again that day because we were so full. One thing I liked about the is that the restaurant has these nice little, square stainless steel mesh, condiment caddies with everything you need in it that you can take right to your table. Another great feature about this establishment as that they routinely have live music performances every week from May through September and have a tall, covered, wooden pavilion for the bands to perform under with ample seating, tables, and bar service available. Our bill came to just $30 plus tip and we thought that was very reasonable, considering the friendly atmosphere, good food, and quality service. We will definitely be back, perhaps in the spring when the trees are blooming, and the first band of the season is ready to hit the stage. Food: Service: Atmosphere:

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.

On Saturday June 9th,2018 I met the NEW bartender named "maam".Yes that's RIGHT "maam" is her name,…read morebecause after I asked for her name she refused to give it to me........... I am a regular at knoxies, usually 4 times a week. My wife and I asked for sour cream and steak sauce to go with our wings and fries. She said they had no sour cream and steak sauce was 50 cents extra. I said that because I was never charged in the past for steak sauce I didn't want it. The sour cream apparently doesn't exist there anymore she said. She said she had already poured it and I had to take it. I said throw it out. After that she was the rudest person I have met . She was demeaning and disrespectful , we tried to explain why we didn't want the sauce and she wouldn't even let us talk she just keep screaming at us.She was being so rude and mean, I didn't even want my wings anymore! We just wanted a refund and she refused to give it to me!!!!! My wife and I were nothing but polite and respectful , we love this bar!! We go there 4 or more times a week and are so heart broken that we were treated like this.Bottom line is. If your predecessor gave out free sauce, its not the patrons fault!!! Our experience was uncalled for and just plain wrong . YET, we love this bar, the owners, and the employees who treat customers the way we've been treated at knoxies in the past. That is why, despite this ignorant lazy UNPROFESSIONAL woman. We STILL rate Knoxies 5+. Just not when "maam" is there. Sincerely, Marcus And Joni R

Probably the worst pizza I've ever had. I mean way below Pizza Hut or little caesars. It was so greasy that me and my coworkers tossed our slices after the first few bites. Honestly it was straight up disgusting, I would take a frozen pizza over the one I got anytime. Yuckkkk. Is all I can say.

Came up for Cortland's Parents Weekend and had an awesome time. The whole town was buzzing... great…read moreenergy everywhere, but still felt welcoming and easy to enjoy. It's one of those weekends where you get to step into your kid's world a bit and actually see why they love it here.

Definitely a weekend worth making the trip for... we'll be back.

A Hidden Gem at Song Mountain -- Exceptional Cuisine and Impeccable Service!…read more What an incredible dining experience at Heuga Restaurant at Song Mountain in Tully, New York! From the warm, inviting atmosphere to the impeccable service and extraordinary food, our evening was truly memorable. The love Executive Chef Ramone puts into his menu can be tasted in every single bite. His creativity, passion, and attention to detail shine through in every dish. This isn't simply a chef preparing a meal; this is someone who genuinely loves his craft. The fig and Brie crostini was an incredible combination of flavors. Every bite was bursting with the delightful pop of fresh pomegranate seeds, perfectly complementing the creamy Brie and sweetness of the fig. Such a thoughtful combination! The pistachio-crusted halibut was absolutely delicious. And the butternut squash purée? Unbelievable! I normally don't even like butternut squash, but I genuinely couldn't stop eating it. When a chef can make you fall in love with an ingredient you typically don't enjoy, that says something about his talent! What also impressed me was the quality and thoughtfulness of the dishes. No unnecessary fillers like potatoes or bread to take up space on the plate. Just exceptional ingredients, beautifully prepared and bursting with flavor. Even the cocktails were special, including my sour apple margarita! A special thank-you to Andrew, our waiter, whose service was absolutely impeccable. His attentiveness and professionalism contributed so much to our wonderful evening. Exceptional service can elevate a dining experience, and Andrew certainly did just that. We also had the pleasure of meeting Executive Chef Ramone when he personally visited our table. It was wonderful to meet the talented person behind such an extraordinary meal and have the opportunity to take his picture. Heuga is so much more than a restaurant at a ski mountain. It's a culinary destination worth experiencing. Congratulations to Chef Ramone, Andrew, and the entire Heuga team for creating something truly special.
