"Food was okay, service was not. We ate lunch at the Crystal Lake Cafe today because our choices were sparse. We had just been to the Taughannock Falls State Park and were very hot from the hiking trails. It was hot and humid (August 21, 2019). When asked if we wanted to eat outdoors or indoors, we asked if the indoor section was air conditioned. We were told flat out that it was. Well, it wasn 't. But being so tired, we stayed in the non air conditioning. That set the tone of how our service was going to go. To cut to the chase, the Grilled Cheese, the Cuban sandwiches, and the wings were fine however, the potato fries were in the oil a little too long. Our waitress never checked to see if everything was alright with our meals nor refilled our water, basically forgot that we existed totally. You say, Well maybe it was busy or maybe we were in an out of the way table? No to both. We were one of only two tables there and were right in the middle of the dining area. And, our waitress was friendly and outgoing to the only other table there a Caucasian couple as a matter of fact, she asked THEM how their meal was and was very nice to them. Yes, we are not Caucasian. We left a 15% tip (I know, we shouldn 't have even left that) and wrote on the receipt what we experienced. Our advice, skip this place. No food is good enough to tolerate this kind of treatment."
