About this restaurant

  • Neighborhood gem
  • Charming
  • Great for happy hour
The Cedar Hollow Inn has been a local favorite for over 18 years. The building, which was built in the mid 1800's, lends an old-fashioned charm to an unpretentious atmosphere.

Chef Stephen Guiseppe of the Culinary Institute of America adds personal flair and imagination to a delectable menu of American Continental dishes. The daily Chef's Specials are creative and unpredictable, energetically inspired an hour or so before the menu is finalized.

Indulge yourself, family and friends to a casual fine dining experience in any of the three dining rooms, including an enclosed sun porch and a large bar area. Tucked away in the middle of everywhere, the Cedar Hollow offers an experience that keeps you coming back.

    First time at Cedar Hollow Inn and we were very impressed. Our server Izzy (spelling?) was great and enjoyable to work with. The different food options were very good and tasty. The desserts we tried were fantastic, coconut cream pie and carrot cake. The one disappointing part was we asked for 2 glasses of house pinot noir and was charge $15 per. Very nice and we will be back.

    The food was delicious and the service was good. The only complaint is that the coffee was room temperature and not hot.

    We took Mom for Mother's Day dinner. Not sure what to expect as this was our first experience at Cedar Hallow Inn. We were seated up on arrival and served our choice of cocktails. For dinner we ordered wild mushroom bisque, lobster bisque, Caesar salad, half roasted duck, salmon, and pork osso bucco, all of which were totally delicious and presented so beautifully. For dessert we ordered cheesecake, cannoli cake and lemon tiramisu. They came in huge portions and were absolutely the best finale. We will be sure to return to Cedar Hallow Inn as our experience was very, very good.

    Went for Mother’s day. I ordered the short rib with 2 eggs. Asked for eggs to be on well done but came out undercooked and the piece of short rib was very small. The price of $17 was not worth the dish. Maybe a second piece of rib would have made the dish worth it. Then because use of cc was charged a fee. Nothing in menu that I could see indicated an upcharge for use of cc. Have eaten at this restaurant 1/2 dozen times and this was really not up to what we have experienced in past. Doubt we would go back

    A delightful dinner, 3 college friends celebrating a birthday. We had Manhattans, calamari, brussel sprouts, oysters, pork osso bucco plus dessert! All was delicious, our server was charming and adorably attentive and we were able to linger for close to 4 hrs as it was a quiet Sunday. All was juuuuust right!

    Always enjoyable and delicious. My friend and I enjoyed the mushroom bisque (a positive must), tuna appetizer and avocado - shellfish tower. Finished with a shared cheesecake. Great service, delicious food, pleasant table on the inside patio. A favorite!
