I went for Valentine’s Day dinner (I was not aware of the $75 prix fix menu), nonetheless i would like to start off by saying the service was amazing. The staff is very welcoming. The food on the other hand? Not very impressive giving the price point. Very small portions, no flavor just bland. Overall I had to bring my food home and add flavor to it for me to enjoy. It’s just not worth the money, and I had very high expectations. Ambiance was nice though.

Was very disappointed. The waitress was new so we knew it’d be a bit slow so we gently reminded her about the soup or salad with the entree and she says, “ I know. I bring it out to you.” But she had already taken our order, come back and hadn’t asked which we preferred. But she got it eventually. But the food … this place is not cheap. It’s Manhattan prices in upstate NY so you expect it to be good. But the butter for the bread was stale. Not rancid but stale and so it was inedible. The Caesar salads were small and less than stellar. And the Beef Wellington also suffered as the beef was flavorless and tough. Wouldn’t go again.

We went for Valentines dinner and i woke up sick the next morning. Definitely not going back. During soup fest we thought they had the best soup so we figured the rest of the food had to be good as well. The only thing the are good at is soup. They tried to sit us in the bar. Not sure why they are pushing couples out on Valentine's to sit in a noisy bar. Especially when half the tables were open in the dining room. We waiting 1 hour for our soup. Then waited for the appetizer. I got the caprese salad that was dry. No marinated anything or balsamic vinegar. Another table had to ask for dressing for their Caesar salad. And again we waited for our meals. My husband's scallops were gritty. My meal was the poulet penne it was luke warm so I'm suspected that is what made me sick. Then come to dessert what we ordered at the beginning of our meal was not available. we ordered cheese cake and red velvet creme brulee. we were offered regular creme brulee but yet tables after us were able to get chocolate creme brulee. This is very poor planning for the chef. He should have mad sure there was enough dessert available for the not packed restaurant . We should have been compensated for that. We ordered from the $75 4 course valentines menu and what i ordered did not even equal $75 From start to finish we were there 2.5 hours. All the food took way to long to come out. I wish we had gotten up and left when i suggested it 45 minutes into waiting for food.

The Canal Side Inn is lovely. It would get 5 stars except for the stairs (no fault of theirs, it is an older building) The room was clean and spacious. Had everything we needed for our stay. Great Location, close to town and the canal.|For those having difficulty walking, the stairs are steep and narrow.

Chef John cares about his food and even more, cares about the customer. He had something specially prepared for my mother who was delicate having just left the hospital. It was a return visit for us and the food was superb. The servers are friendly and attentive and EVERYONE makes sure your dining experience is the best ever. What a gem of a restaurant not to be missed!

I was helping a friend get his boat through the Erie Canal. We tied up downstream of lock 17 and I decided I wanted to go into town for a hot meal. My server Olivia was very personable and the food was excellent. The owner happened to be there and invited me to join him and his family at their table (Thanks Dave, those were some good conversations). The night ended up being far more of an adventure than I'd planned. If I'm in town again I'll be sure to visit.

If you’re in Little Falls, New York, this restaurant is a must try. The food is absolutely amazing. Bartenders and servers are great and to top it off, the chef came out to talk to us and was amazing as well.

We had high expectations, but were let down by overpriced, mediocre entrees. It seems like their definition of fine dining is equivalent to the filet o fish at McDonald's. I hope to visit again and have a better experience.

Chef John's creations are amazing. The oso bucco was fantastic, as were the rest of our meals. Lexi was a fantastic server and was very attentive. I would highly recommend this restaurant if you're in the area. It rivals any top restaurant in the City. Eat here and you won't be disappointed.
