    There was actually seafood in their seafood chowder. All of our food and drinks were superb! We enjoyed great service and the recently rebuilt restaurant was beautiful with amazing Holiday decorations. The fireplace in our room made the ambiance complete. It was a five star experience.

    Great night out. We were early and quickly seated in bar area at a high top, instead of reserved table, at our request. Server was great and so were our meals of Cobb salad with side filet and twin tails. Great spot if you are staying nearby

    Our first time there. We were early by nearly an hour and they were busy. They did get us seated at the bar. The food was excellent, my steak and scallops were outstanding. The service was also excellent. Very efficient and friendly. We really appreciated that they were able to accommodate us despite being so early. We were impressed and will definitely add this to our regular stops when we're in the finger lakes. Highly recommend.

    We had a wonderful time at Nolans last night. We were seated immediately, service was prompt and efficient all night. Servings were large. I had the lobster ravioli; it was excellent and I was surprised at how much lobster there was. Companions enjoyed the seafood, chicken Marsala and Fillet - everyone was very happy with their meal. Will definitely be going back.

    Nolan’s is consistently good and the holiday decor was very nice. Our server, Lauren, was also good. However, I wish servers would make the price of “specials” known as it’s awkward to ask. Part of our order was 1 coconut shrimp “special” app ($21) and one main “special” ($42). I probably would have skipped the app and ordered another main had I known.

    Thank you for your feedback! We’re glad you enjoyed your visit, from the holiday decor to the consistently good food and service from Lauren. We understand your concern about pricing on specials—it’s a valid point, and we’ll be sure to share your feedback with our team to ensure we improve communication in the future. We hope to welcome you back again soon!
