Beijing Garden

Great service, food is consistently good, unique dishes that no one else in the area does. They have an extensive tiki drink menu with great prices. This is a wonderful venue for its closeness to the hockey arena and clemons center performances.

Kountry Krullers

Reviewed By CraigLyman - Pine City, NY

Their apple fritters and eclairs are out of this world, but when they're gone, they're gone, so get there early. Coffee comes with a free donut, but I'm not a fan of the coffee. Donuts are good though. Really good bagels that they'll toast and put cream cheese on for you. They have several different flavors of cream cheese, so ask. There is no menu board or prices listed, so if you don't know what they have, or what it costs, you have to ask.

Lib's Supper Club

Reviewed By BudGirl17 - Elmira, New York

Our first Wednesday Night Date Night of the New Year and weren't disappointed. We had Matt waiting on us and he's wonderful! He's very personable and friendly and always willing to help if you have questions. I had the Chicken Down Under, my favorite, and my boyfriend had the chicken and eggplant. It's his new favorite. The food is delicious and cooked to perfection. Even on busy nights, the food is always worth the wait. Their beer is chilled to peak temps and is always ready at the bar, with Shannon, before dinner. This is a family favorite for sure and always will be!

Vincenzo's Pizzeria

Reviewed By Sharon V - Santa Fe, New Mexico

We ordered a medium pizza but someone misunderstood and we received a large at no extra cost. It was fair, but the crust was thicker than we like for a so-called New York style pizza. The edges were especially thick, would have preferred the sauce and toppings had been spread out a little more evenly. It's in a strip mall with a counter overlooking the parking lot. There are some tables and booths although they're a little too close together for a private conversation. We ordered large drinks, but they were way over-sized. Probably wouldn't go back there again.

On a clear August evening sitting out on there deck having a scrumptious cocktail while waiting for dinner is just so relaxing and inviting. Then when your delicious dinner is served to perfection. They have anything from steaks to mouth watering seafood. I've never been disappointed with each and every meal I have ordered. They are sure to please, so come and enjoy both atmosphere and delicious dining at it's best.

Though my family and I love these hot dogs, the political spewing from employees was not appreciated. On one occasion, my family left before ordering so they didn't have to listen to it further.

Panera Bread

Reviewed By JM17522 - Ephrata, Pennsylvania

We received a friendly welcome upon our arrival. After viewing the menu, our cashier was very courteous and helpful. The food was delicious.

My only recommendation is do not sit near the side door near the back of the restaurant. We had several staff going in and out for their catering business.
