   We, a party of 3, were seated by our ad hoc request in area further away from the impending musical entertainment in the bar area. Server Tori was affable and accommodating. Pink/red (tomato-based?) lobster bisque was heartier, meatier, and more interesting than standard white puree preparations. "Starter" sesame tuna was big enough in portion to be a modest size entree. Chile chicken and halibut entrees were tasty, nicely plated, and reasonably portioned. Bar music wasn't excessively loud (even in the bar area itself) and also completely benign in the adjacent dining room.

   Our first experience at Main Deck and we were very impressed. We plan to come back soon. The food was top notch, service was excellent and the atmosphere superb. Great job everyone!

   Service was extraordinary and, with the romantic ambience of this restaurant located on the shores of Keuka Lake, I can definitely say we’d come back in a second and to check it out for yourself! Servers Tori and Kayla did an excellent job with a moderately busy (though not overly crowded as there’s plenty of room in this establishment) dinnertime crowd and we were very pleased with their service and hospitality. The food was also delicious and with a wide and varied selection for everyone…I highly recommend getting many appetizers and small dishes to share with your table! The drink menu was delightful as well, with many local wines and plenty of other drink types of beer and spirits for non-wine drinkers as well! Cheers!

   The food was good but several pans of food were empty and never got refilled. We had a 2pm reservation and the buffet ended at 3pm. The waitress was great.

   The brunch buffet was excellent - beautifully prepared and displayed, with a lot of variety. All the dishes we tried were delicious. The view of the lake in the dining room is lovely and in addition, there was live music from Marye Lobb which added to the ambiance.

   Main Deck has a new chef who has developed an excellent new menu. Great small bites and tasty new salads and entrees. We had the butternut squash soup which was amazing. The beet salad was excellent. This new menu will definitely be a hit this spring and summer. Vanessa was our server and she was friendly, informative and made for a quiet winter evening.

   Our server, Vanessa, was wonderful and the place was packed so she was busy. Great recommendations and she was hustling to keep everyone taken care of. Will go again and sit in her station.

    The menu was somewhat limited and pricey the smash burger is gone which was amaxing and the main reason I would choose to go there we had dinner, but we also looked at the brunch menu and it’s not something that will make me want to come back anytime soon
