Donna Ng Namaste, Namaste! So happy to have a good eat-in Indian restaurant in the area. We enjoyed the food and service. The decor is not much changed from the previous falafel restaurant. Its very clean and comfortable if not atmospheric. We had the fried calamari appetizer, which came with butter chicken sauce. Id prefer a lighter batter but they were tasty. My husband and I loved the tandoori shrimp, a generous portion, and the dal makhani. I asked for medium spice on the lentils and would call it more on the hot side. Not too hot for my taste, but next time Id get mild. The whole adds up to more than the sum of its parts, so 5 stars, and I look forward to enjoying more meals here!

Dana Sullivan Neat little place with a gluten-free store and coffee shop. Aptly, the whole place has a rustic feel, and the coffee shop area even has a fireplace with armchairs. The market has locally made crafts like jewelry, candles, and jam, a small selection of fresh produce and meat, gluten-free pantry items (not a huge selection, but more interesting options for pasta and cereals than you can find in a mid-sized grocery store), spices/tea in bulk, and locally roasted coffee beans. For the size of the store, they really have a good variety and strike a good balance of basic groceries vs gourmet items. The coffee shop has the standard coffee and tea drinks with some seasonal specialty drinks plus a moderate assortment of baked goods. I tried the blueberry muffin, lemon lavender scone, and a matcha latte from the coffee shop. The baked goods were great. Both had great texture (none of the dryness that cheap GF baked goods often suffer from) and nice flavours. The scone was closer to the dessert side of the baked good spectrum (sweet and almost a shortbread cookie texture), but the muffin was less sweet and wholesome-tasting. My matcha latte was pretty good, easily the best matcha Ive had in the Binghamton area. I was with my mom, who got a black tea, and while I didnt actually have any of her tea, I know and like the tea company that they use. The vibe was friendly and welcoming. Id like to come back here next time Im in the area!

Brandon Marshall The family meal is a great deal. So much food! Everything was delicious. Ribs fell off the bone, the mac n cheese was some of the best ive had. Collard greens go great mixed with the mac! Great service as well. You feel right at home.

Peche Peche “Peche” Piattini Cafe restaurant was an absolute gem in Little Italy. Parking was easy to find, and the space itself is small and very comfortable, which made the experience feel warm and inviting. From the moment we walked in, the customer service was excellent very polite, welcoming, and attentive. We were seated right away, which was a plus. The food was phenomenal. I had the white wine steamed mussels, and they were perfectly cooked with an amazing balance of flavors so fresh and delicious. Everything about this visit was enjoyable, from the service to the atmosphere to the food. Highly recommend and will definitely be returning! The bonus was running into the owner such a humble Italian lol This was a true Bronx Tail

James Farina Are you looking for an authentic dive bar experience in a small town in upstate NY, well this is your place. The food is actually quite good. I had a grilld ham and cheese and a PBR. Try to go when there is a football game on for the full experience.
