This is as fine as diner as you can experience in New York. A great menu with fresh ingredients (I had a Julienne salad). Fast but friendly service and if you are lucky the owner Ben will drop by and make sure that you are enjoying your meal. This is old school quality and value and a good reason to visit Boonville any time of year.

The cheeseburgers were delicious, and the fries were magnificent! Tavern and restaurant are separated, but seemed like you could be served food in the tavern.

It can be hit or miss, which is why I usually only order their bacon cheeseburger, Reuben, or fish fry. They make awesome fresh cut fries, too.

Every time we have driven by we say "some day" we need to eat there. Well TODAY is SOME DAY! And am I sure glad we did. French Onion soup some of the best I have ever tasted. My daughter wants the recipe so she can have it at school. My dinner was ground round smothered in beef mushroom gravy and mashed potatoes with more gravy. Simple comfort food but done extremely well. You can tell it's made in house from scratch. Delicious, taking most of it home, and I will be eating it later. Hubs had open-faced prime rib, with fries, and it was amazing. Daughter had grilled ham and swiss on rye and she said it was the best she has ever had. Comfortable surroundings, great service, reasonable prices. I will be back! Thank you for a wonderful end to a beautiful ride!

Called the Restaurant at 7:30pm and spoke with an extremely helpful staff member Jackie. The task I was requesting was a lot of food to be delivered last minute to a celebration of life. She gave me the owners personal phone number and I texted him my pretty much impossible task. He personally call me and apologized for not being able to help but did however direct me toward a solution. With me now living in the south you hear the “damn yankee rah rah” so much I wish people understood that New York State is not NYC. This experience was second to none the best customer service I’ve ever had. Mr Ben I got your message and I truly thank you so much.
