Great atmosphere, somewhere between fancy and chill . The service is really good and the food is alright.

Great Thai salad and grilled salmon ❤️ definitely recommended! But not a great service though.

If you go on a nice warm day (rare!), try to get an outdoor table or else just settle for a table indoors with a view !

Rachel Clark

Lovely spot with great views . The arugula and feta salad is tasty and surprisingly filling.

Alexa Stern

Go on a nice day and sit on the back deck. Beautiful view of the water!

The Gutenberger, topped with shredded cheddar and crispy onions , is named for a former Ithaca mayor.

Get french fries with whatever you have. Best tasting after Bandwagon's, but much more crispy .

not great with large groups, even if your party has a reservation and pre-ordered food. food was ok, but the hamburgers were all undercooked. the apps were great though.

If you can stand the heat and weather is nice, get a seat outside on the dock.

Idiots! Did't sell beer , because they did't like my documents (they are not US). Anyone who is not an US citizen will not be able to order alcohol here. I'm 25 years old from Russia!
