Refined feel, thoughtfully composed dishes. Lamb lollipop chop was topped by a dollop of goat cheese and mint leaf and crisped morsel. Could've been a bit rarer though to preserve original flavor. Crispy shrimp milk bun (柳叶包) with frisée made a dynamically textured bite. The creamy mayo yolky sauce but with a kick of acidic note was exquisite. House salad with roasted pepita, candied walnut, microgreens incl basil, endive, frisée, and sweet ginger chili dressing was refreshing.

We were really pleasantly surprised at just how nice our experience at The Cellar was. As someone with a gluten sensitivity I was thrilled to see that their chicken and waffles is gluten free. The prices are commensurate with the quality here, and I was glad to see that our entrees were full plates, not a piece of protein garnished with a few specks of vegetable and starch. This was a great way to start our weekend in Corning

Another fabulous meal at The Cellar! Went in on a Saturday night—accidentally had made reservations for the following Saturday, but they were able to seat four of us. Delicious food and drinks and great service. I had 3 of their small plates: the spinach dip with house made focaccia—could have used a tad more spinach, but cheesy and delicious & the focaccia was amazing, the house salad—a mix of greens with apples, candied walnuts, pumpkin seed, in a house made dressing, and a cup of their lemon chicken soup—delicious!! The soup tasted homemade, but in the best way possible! So much flavor!! My hubby had their poutine as an appetizer and the chicken cacciatore—he enjoy everything. Our friends had the salad with shrimp added, duck mac n cheese, and a couple of other dishes and really were impressed! They’re new to this area from Dallas and are used to excellent restaurants with great vibes and food and said they would definitely be back! Mike, the owner, stopped by our table to see how things were and was as friendly and welcoming as ever! It’s so nice to go to a place where the owner is happy to see the guests having a great time. Also…delicious desserts, coffee and cocktails!!

We were in the mood for an upscale burger and fries and this was perfect! The gouda and apple butter were a great touch. Their spicy ketchup and garlic aioli were delicious, too! We’ve been to the Cellar many times and can also recommend the salmon and chicken and waffles, too. Also, our waitress was attentive and friendly! We will be back!

Fine dining at its best in a small town in NY. The ambience was great. The waiter very knowledgeable. Wonderful food, fresh and rightly cooked to perfection. The dessert menu they have is outstanding. Our group got different desserts and all said it was wonderful. Definitely recommend for someone trying good food in the area. The pasta I ordered could have been a little better though.

Ate here at the suggestion of family who lives close to Corning. Went during the parade of lights which was absolutely beautiful to begin with and of course we knew it would be hard to get a table during a very busy day for the town. Thankfully our wait was minimal but we got the opportunity to sit at the bar and enjoy each a festive cocktail each which were fantastic. The atmosphere of the restaurant is lovely and very comforting. Service was amazing and the food as well. Of course they brought out a happy birthday dessert out for my wife which made her night. I’ll make sure to let others know to go there!

What a wonderful experience! My husband and I came here for date night. I was excited for the menu. Our waitress Courtney was phenomenal. She had great recommendations and was very friendly. We like that she gave us time and told us when she'd come back. She was on it. The lamb lollipops were delicious. I wasn't expecting them to be medium rare, which is usually not my thing. But they were very good. The blend of toppings really complimented the lamb itself. The market steak is so worth it! The prime tenderloin melted in my mouth. Cooked to perfection. I loved the juicy sauteed vegetables that complimented the meal well. My husband really enjoyed his seafood hollandaise. He was literally licking the plate clean. We ended with the dark chocolate molten cake. It was super yummy. I think that it was a little crispy for my liking around the edges and small for a $14 dessert, but overall it was good. It was a great date night. We will definitely be back again.

I've heard a lot about the cheese board that was offered at The Cellar over the last year from various associates. Had a conference at the Radisson and figured I would pick it up to go, thinking it would be a nice gesture to have while we discussed things in the lobby before the meeting took place. The bartender was very nice, explaining everything to me, and I was under the impression that it would be quite bountiful and neatly packaged for a To-Go option. This was the only thing I had requested. Altogether, $75, which was already a bit pricey... but I ordered additional meats and bread. After 30 minutes of waiting, she politely brought out 2 large To-Go containers, and I was on my way with my charcuterie / cheese board items. To my surprise, what was stated on the menu of items to be received did not meet my expectations. There were no crackers, my expectations of additional meats (I had ordered two additional meats) were not what I expected in terms of servings, and for the most part, it did not match the items that I had seen in previous photos on Google reviews. So I was very confused and shocked beyond belief... along with my colleagues who had also had the same menu item in their own experiences, questioning if I was ripped off or the kitchen staff didn't read the order correctly. I called the establishment, and I was told that management would reach back out to me - I have heard nothing over the last several days. Not sure what to expect for any future take-out orders from here on out, and if it should be avoided altogether. Especially for the long duration of what I thought would be a simple item. The restaurant was maybe half full, with only 4 individuals at the bar besides me on a slow Wednesday. // Update 1/23/26 The restaurant was kind to work out and recognize the mistake, along with extending an invitation to right the wrong. I really appreciated this gesture and have amended the review on service to show the appreciation. (2 -> 4). I look forward to dining in person

The Cellar in Corning, NY, offers a wonderfully eclectic menu. The food was delicious—especially the chicken and waffles, which were a standout. We were seated in the bar area, so it was a bit loud, but it didn’t detract from the overall experience. There are plenty of vegetarian options, which was great for one member of our party. Definitely worth a visit!
