"We had a fantastic breakfast in Ithaca. We ordered a delicious breakfast plate featuring a veggie omelette, homemade fries, and toast. The ambiance felt straight out of a classic Hollywood movie—very authentic—and the food was incredible, providing the perfect start to our day. The pancakes were also delightful. There are plenty of options for both meat lovers and vegetarians. I loved the vibe, and the food was truly enjoyable. If you're in the Finger Lakes region, definitely stop by for some delicious eats!"

The egg sandwich was fantastic, and the home fries are the best in town!

Excellent food, excellent portions. The omelettes are made perfectly, and the home fries are simply delicious.

I absolutely love the Bo Burger, the Sausage Gravy and Biscuits, and the Corned Beef Hash. I've consistently been completely satisfied with everything I've tried. I do miss their Gyros at 3 AM, but you can't have it all!

I ordered the two eggs prepared to my liking and a BLT dog, and both were delicious and perfectly portioned. My delivery also arrived sooner than I anticipated, taking just 20 minutes. I will definitely be ordering from this restaurant again! View menu

Service was great and food was really good. My wife had the chicken and waffles and I had the smothered turkey sandwich. Sorry didn't take pics but it was delicious. Only recommendation for that is to put it on a thicker bread so it's easier to handle with the gravy.

This is the worst breakfast I have ever had. The toast was wet. The potatoes were chemically and soft and burned. the Baklava was the worst Ive ever had and also tasted like chemicals. the 2 Eggs Any Style were not seasoned at all and very overcooked. the Florentine Omelette was also unseasoned and soggy and chemical tasting.

I had a great experience with the fast service at this restaurant. The breakfast was delicious, especially the home fries, which were nice and crispy. I ordered the meat lover's omelette, and it was packed with plenty of meat—absolutely fantastic! There are street parking spots available right in front, but keep in mind that you'll need to pay at the meter with coins or use an app. View menu

I had my first meal in the diner, and I was so satisfied that I had to write it. It was excellent, the service of the time we went to the time we were, was second to none! Our waiter was not only so polite; he made sure we had everything, and was always there with coffee refills. I have to say that the difference between Florida and NY is so beautiful that I will eat there every week. Definitely a first class diner!

I'm not sure why this diner has a 4.2-star rating. I visited for the first time today, and even though we arrived during a busy period, we were seated right away and received quick service. Our orders came out surprisingly fast, and the food was excellent—especially the Belgian waffles, which were some of the best I've ever had! The atmosphere has a classic diner vibe, and the staff was friendly and welcoming. We will definitely be back!

"My girlfriend and I decided to take a romantic getaway on the finger lakes and our drive had us passing through Ithaca, so we decided to stop for dinner. A good friend recommended this place, and admittedly I was skeptical of Italian food this far from New York City, but I trust their recommendations and decided to give it a try. I am so glad that I did. For our wine selection, our server allowed us to sample one of the wines by the glass, which tasted thin. When we described what we wanted, she came back with a reasonably priced bottle that exactly hit the deep red notes that we were looking for (see the picture for the winery vintage if interested . We started with the crostini sampler. In my opinion, the Caponata was the best, but they were all interesting to try and I was glad we got all three. As a nice touch, they cut each crostini in half so my girlfriend and I could both easily sample each one. For dinner, I had the grilled hanger steak, which came with rapini and shoestring fries. I admittedly gave an annoyingly long description of how I wanted it cooked (essentially rare+ and they nailed it. The steak was fantastic, but the accompaniments were so good that they almost stole the show. The shoestring fries’ rosemary seasoning was a fun twist and the rapini was both familiar (garlic and olive oil and excitingly different. For dessert, I had what was essentially espresso mousse with graham crackers and a glass of dessert wine. While probably the weakest course, it was still a delicious way to cap an amazing meal. The mousse required a bit more texture, but fortunately they provided graham crackers on the side (which I suggest crumbling into the mousse . I’d highly recommend checking this place out if you happen to be in the area."

"Been here three times all my life in Ithaca. The first one was with my department bestie as it was our first time hanging out together and I taught her how to use chopsticks, how cute is that? And the second time was with my bf and the third time was with an old friend with her friend who were both new students this fall. The place was super strategic as you could see it from across the Seneca street bus stop because it was located hooked and the signage was kinda readable from far away. Also, they placed a printed menu on the window so that people could easily see both menu and the ambiance of the place directly although I could hold my waves of laughter a lot as I sat twice at the table near the menu because people could be very intense when seeing the menu and they might also watch us eating a bit. The staffs were attentive and friendly but their opening hours might be the quickest place to close as they close around 8pm. Food-wise, they have a wide variety of Korean and Japanese food and some kind of fusion Asian cuisine like the name of the restaurant!! I once went with fusion raw, cooked, and deep-fried sushi rolls which were so good, and some were categorized as spicy but not that spicy for my appetite. And then I tried the Vegetable Pajun or pancake served with a sour sauce which had not much flavor but the crispiness saved the game. To be honest, not really a fan of Korean food but I did try the Jjam Bong with chicken and it turned out so flavorful and the soup was spicy which I loved. The shredded chicken was tender and scrumptious also the noodle was cooked perfectly for me. Recommended to those who want to try comfort and tasty Asian cuisine around Downtown but make sure to seal the deal before 8pm so you will still be seated !!"
