Eden
Price: Expensive•Farm-to-table•4.9(895)An entirely wood fired, upscale-causal, dining experience in the heart of Central New York.
Our mission is to highlight the best food producers, farmer, brewers, distillers, and foragers in New York State.Phoebe's Restaurant & Coffee Lounge
Price: Moderate•Contemporary American•4.8(647)Originally known as Phoebe's Garden Café, the restaurant has a long and colorful history in Syracuse. Local lore claims that the building was originally a brothel, and Phoebe was its madam.
In the summer of 2004, Phoebe's experienced a refreshing makeover with a bright new look in the atrium dining room with fresh paint, new upholstery, and artwork. The coffee lounge also opened that year, and it became an instant hit with the surrounding university and business crowd. Those changes also warranted a new name to reflect the updated attitude and ambiance: Phoebe's Restaurant and Coffee Lounge. Classic elements of Phoebe's remain untouched—the French onion soup and enticing crème brulee, for example, but other menu items change seasonally.
The Lounge also has its own seating area and free wireless internet capabilities. Phoebe's old world charm is right at home in a revitalized area of the city.
The Tailwater Bar and Restaurant
Price: Expensive•American•4.7(822)For the finest food on the river, look no further than the Tailwater Restaurant & Bar, where rustic atmosphere meets metropolitan flair. Thoughtfully prepared seafood dishes and satisfying comfort-food favorites fill our menu, perfect for savoring after a day outdoors.Krebs 1899

The restaurant has been a popular landmark in Skaneateles for over a century, serving presidents, dignitaries and celebrities. The Krebs was re-opened after undergoing a complete renovation while carefully preserving the history and ambiance that visitors have grown accustomed to.
