Scott Hall The BEST Italian fare you will get literally anywhere. Old school, la famiglia! I literally cannot recommend it any more strongly. If you are in the area, it is a MUST visit!

Tabatha Miranda Lexi was a great server. She gave great recommendations and had our food and drinks in a timely manner. Desert was delicious. Though they were extremely busy however, she was very attentive. Would absolutely recommend anyone to come here again.

sorangie sanchez Very calm, good vibes with Spanish music. Made me feel at home with my mom. Food was great. One of the best mangu I had in a long time. Waiter was quick and attentive, he was also the only one on the floor.

Mar Ta The service amazing. For 2 people they offered a 2 person table, outside or inside, they sat us right away. The food was Fast and tasted fresh. Eggs were done perfectly, soft scrambled, bacon crispy, potatoes were a little too salty, and the shakshuka was a little disappointing, like salsa with pouched eggs, but the bread was crisp and yummy when dipped into the bowl. However, the Sunday pancake was amazing. It’s was like a mini fluffy yellow cake with delicious buttered maple all over. not a maple taste but like a chocolaty buttery nutty flavor. “It was like a reward”. We enjoyed it the most. Overall we understand the hype and definitely recommend to try it for yourself.

Jaume Stopped into Front Street Tavern for a late meal and was surprised to see schnitzel on the menu—not what you’d expect, but it was very good and super filling. Fresh mushroom gravy and mashed potatoes. It’s a nice local spot, especially if you’re looking for something casual and easygoing later in the evening. Everyone was friendly, and getting a table was no problem at all.

Bill Jones Classic Elmira wing place thats a must stop whenever I make it back to my hometown. Wings are classic. Burgers perfect. Fried food heaven. They get backed up quick during dinner service, but be patient its worth it and drinks are more than reasonable. A lot of regulars, but newcomers are welcome with "open arms."
