    This is one of the only places we eat out. Emmet makes every experience fantastic. They are very careful about vegan options. Thanks for a great meal!

    We absolutely love The Cellar! We drove over an hour to go there for our anniversary because the food is so amazing. The service is also excellent - always a super friendly waitstaff. Our party had the duck tacos, poutine, chicken and waffles, steak, sea bass, and apple crisp and every single thing was delicious! The margaritas are also the best we’ve had. If it were closer to home we would probably be there all the time! I cannot recommend this restaurant enough.

    The food was outstanding! My only suggestion is to have a few more kid friendly options. Not a kids menu…just a few more items that are mild enough for the younger palette. We made due, but we almost left. Glad we didn’t!

    The food was delicious! I couldn’t resist trying the chicken and savory waffle and it was very tasty! My partner had a burger. (What? $19 for a burger!?) it was so delicious! He asked the waitress what kind of meat was in it. The answer: Kobe beef!! Really worth it! Drinks were good and the waitress was delightful! Oh and the homemade ice cream too! We’re not from Corning; but this restaurant will promo us to return.

    Our experience at The Cellar was simply excellent. The food was marvelous, expertly cooked and perfectly seasoned. The room is attractively decorated in a contemporary style, with accents touching on Corning's history of glassmaking and decorative glass. The atmosphere was welcoming, with a wide range of people dining. Our server, Emmett, was personable and knowledgeable. There was nothing to criticize, just an enjoyable dining experience of the kind you might expect in a larger city, or a more expensive establishment.

    We were visiting the Corning area and had dinner at The Cellar. Service was friendly and appropriately attentive. Wine selection was good. There were no dinner specials other than a soup and a flavored popcorn. We had the chicken and waffles and the halibut. Both were good but were not remarkable - especially given the price.

    Excellent food and service! We were a party of 2 and we ordered 3 small plates and the small cheese board. It was actually too much food, we brought most of the flatbread home. I highly recommend the brussels sprout with walnuts and the shrimp tacos. You won't be dissapointed!

    Decided to try this place out specifically because I needed a gluten free option prior to the wineglass marathon. I am extremely sensitive to cross contamination with gluten so I was nervous about my dinner prior to the marathon. Not only were there great gluten free options, everything was absolutely delicious. We had the chee chee fries, flatbread, chicken and waffles, steak, and lava cake dessert. Our server was knowledgeable and made great suggestions. The best part was I didn’t get sick - so much so we went back again the next day. If we are in Corning again we will definitely return!
