It was my first time at Rex’s which is surprising because it’s been in my backyard for so long. I was beyond impressed! The bread is delicious, the starter salad was tasty, and I ordered the cavatelli, which I will be dreaming about. Staff were so very friendly and the place is super clean. It’s great to see a small business thriving. I highly recommend!

New to the area. Heard lots of good things. Went in with my wife and was not disappointed. Excellent. We’re from the downstate area so we know good food. My wife had the shrimp scampi. I had the best French onion soup I’ve ever had along with the best breakfast burger I’ve ever had. Everything was absolutely delicious. Really good Bloody Mary too! Definitely on the pricey side, but then again quality is never cheap. We’re definitely coming back. Very pleased.

Holy cowwwww, this place is so good. The portions are huge! Definitely come hungry to be able to eat a full portion. I ordered the half portion and was stuffed and also had some to take home as leaftover. I wish I lived near this place. They also had a good and unique selection of beer. Check out the picture to see a real beer I bought while there....."Pork Slap."

Food was decent and the Atmosphere was okay. Service was very good. A little pricey. Wait time was only a few minutes.

Is the food good? Yes. Is the food overpriced for dishes that are largely pasta? In my opinion, also yes. The quality here is just good enough to where I'll go in occasionally despite feeling like I'm being gouged a bit, but I'd probably go in more if they could maintain the same quality while shaving a few bucks off of their entree prices. Service and atmosphere here are all good as well.

I have been here a few times when visiting family in the area. Always fresh and hot food, a variety of cocktails-wind and beer. The service is prompt and attentive. The bar is nice as well for chatting with friends, playing Quick Draw and or eating at the bar if tables are full. I would recommend making a reservation especially on the weekends. The only complaint on the last visit is apparently the prices have gone up but the price on the menu has not. Also a couple items were upgraded with additional garlic and or hot peppers and we did not request this but were charged for them. Although the waitress adjusted the bill she seemed annoyed about it. The drink menu has a wine on tap selection which we ordered from, but when going to the bar after dinner and ordering the same wine the bartender opened a bottle. I asked why wasn’t I getting the same wine on tap and she said we don’t have wine on tap…so there’s that.

Very pricey for what you get. Food had ok flavor but in my opinion there are better pasta restaurants in cortland.

Long story short: overpriced food that isn't well-cooked. The picture below is of their chicken caprese. It cost $22 for that. $22 for a portion that small (bread for scale) is pathetic. When I got home and saw that, I felt like I got ripped off. In addition, the pasta was no better than what you'd get from a box, the chicken was overcooked, and the tomatoes...well...you can see for yourself. The whole thing was a soupy mess. It's absolutely criminal that places like Rex's charge NYC prices in Cortland. Places like this prey on people's ignorance, because they know their customers don't know any better. Well you can't pull the wool over THIS customer's eyes. I see you Rex's, and you should be ashamed of yourselves. Bottom line, if you like being overcharged for low- to mid-range food, go to Rex's. Otherwise, you're better off buying and making everything yourself. It'll taste better and cost less.

My mother's salad was drowning in Italian dressing. Mine was all right with the French dressing. They only had two small tomatoes one yellow pepper and a piece of radish and the rest was lettuce. Waited a half hour for our pasta meals. The sauce was disgusting the meatballs were lukewarm and the waitress wasn't very nice! Bad review will not be returning

Was just charged $100 for a steak and a seafood broil with calamari and a side of pasta. The cut of meat was full of fat and no flavor. It was covered in fried onion rings that you can get in the frozen section at Walmart. There was about a cup of calamari on a whole bed of lettuce. The pasta had generic sauce and tasted like a side dish for a kids meal. No problems paying for a quality meal, but this was far from being anything that I would order again. Would not recommend…2/10
