The Old Library

Reviewed By audpr

I cannot fully express just how grateful I am to the owners and employees of this establishment. I have a wonderful wedding here! The food was out of this world delish!!! They are beyond accommodating for those picky eaters and will make a special plate for them. We had a "smore's bar" and it was beyond my expectations. It was simply amazing! They really pull out all the stops and create the most magical and enchanting event. Now, on to the B&B....This place, on a scale of 1-10 is a 30! We rented the whole house for our bridal party and it was worth every penny. The ladies that cared for us in the morning, and made us all breakfast, and treated us like family! I cannot wait to go back for an anniversary and spend the night. A giant thank you! XOXO

Applebee's

Reviewed By MDI_McCandless

I know this is a chain restaurant but we are always impressed and amazed at the quality of the food at Applebee's. We went again tonight. Just great food - again. There are several high quality but low-calorie offerings. Craft beers available on tap. This restaurant always feels local.

A meal (or two) at Red and Trudy's is a tradition every time we are in town. It's a great value and delicious. I always get a cheeseburger with everything. The fries are outstanding! Milkshakes are thick and yummy - just the way they've always been made. Prices are quite reasonable and great value for your money.

We enjoyed our visit to the Grand Slam Grill. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't great either. Just average. The upside: the service was good, and my son loved his Grand Slam Burger. Our waitress was very attentive and helpful. Our drinks were never empty.The downside: my wife didn't enjoy the chicken salad wrap. There wasn't much seasoning on the wrap. It was pretty bland.The average: Today's special was a chicken strip sandwich with blue cheese dressing. It was okay. Not outstanding, just okay. The prices were a little higher than we would have liked. Not unreasonable, just a little high for the quality of the food.We wish the Grand Slam Grill all the best. They seem like great people, but they need to step up the quality of the restaurant.

Had breakfast with my husband and Mother inlaw and it was delicious as always. Perkins is one of my favorites to visit for just good tasting,good choices of food,and especially because you can still get breakfast afternoon and in the evening. Staff is almost always pretty pleasant and helpful.

Century Manor

Reviewed By coralsgot2go

We had a lovely meal. Everything was cooked and seasoned perfectly. The chef did an amazing job. Started with the calimari appetizer. Fresh, light, seasoned nicely. My husband had the broiled scallops, which were perfect. I ordered the Captain’s Platter, which was broiled Haddock and scallops and a lightly breaded and well seasoned shrimp. Both platters were served with fresh vegetables and drawn butter. Choice f soup or salad, we each chose one. Salad was fresh, seafood chowder had fabulous flavor. We were very impressed with the food we were served. There was a piano player, who was very good and it added a very nice atmosphere to our dinner.

Green Acres Cafe

Reviewed By coralsgot2go

We were looking for a quick meal before a movie. This place is mostly a breakfast and lunch spot, but is open for dinner Friday nights. We were pleasantly surprised by the quantity and quality of dinner selections. We both settled on Cajun Baked Haddock with cole slaw and cottage cheese (we’re doing low carb). It came out surprisingly quickly and it was delicious. Our waitress was a delight, and we were in and out in plenty of time to make our movie. They had a tempting display case with lots of desserts if you’re in the market. Cute place, would highly recommend.

Quaint town of Olean! Must be at least 3-4 roundabouts up the middle of main street. This little cafe is on a corner, has inside and outside seating. Loved the vegetarian and vegan options for lunch. Serve Breakfast and lunch--soup, salad's, sandwiches and dessert. Many people walking, jogging and biking. They have over 100 blends of tea. Ice tea choice: black, white or green! If I lived in this area, this would be a place I would frequent often!

Excellent rack of lamb, terrific tzadziki. Our server, David, was great- fast, friendly, able to answer questions about the food, make good suggestions. Rainbow trout was good, bruschetta caprese was also good. EVERYTHING we ordered was good! Easy parking on street. Reasonable prices for what we ordered.
