The food is disgusting. I ordered chicken piccata, and it was deep fried and served over a bed of grease. The sauce was made with so much fat that it curdled. Save your money. If you are looking for a place to gorge yourself and don’t care about quality this is your place. Our waitress was nice and that was the only good part.

41st anniversary dinner for my wife, had to try this place, for years I ask her to make reservations and she just blew me off, her uniqueness. Showed up at 6 first mistake, it was quite loud older folks really can set the noise level up there. We had been seated very fast, OK it was an excellent start, the waitress was with us within a couple minutes with water and bread, nice a step above our usual steakhouse up by the mall. We had no appetizers, just ordered our dinner, we both had the "Surf & Turf" which was a 24 ounce prime rib, I ordered the chicken scampi & my wife ordered the shrimp scampi, which was part of the meal, we had a tossed salad and a baked potato also part of the Surf & Turf which is $56.xx The salad arrived in about 10 minutes it was excellent, and we had time to talk and enjoy our salad before the main course arrived. The main course arrived 12-15 minutes later which was perfect in our opinion. The prime rib wss cooked perfectly to our idea of medium rare, both pieces had a nice broiled appearance, the taste & tenderness was delicious. My wife said the shrimp 4 nice sized shrimp perfectly cooked, very lightly battered, crunchy but tender, she thought they were amazing. The chicken I had appeared to be a large breast that was pounded to tenderize it, it was in a sauce heavily tasting of garlic delicious, not a stringy breast you buy at the grocery store or it was properly tenderized prior to cooking. The bake potato was not a "Idaho baking potato" with the heavy skin and yellow coloration, it was according to my wife a "chefs potato" it was excellent, nice and creamy cooked to perfection. This place will replace the chain steak restaurant we would frequently visit. The bill was 124.xx that included 9.xx tax. We tipped the waiter $20.00 My wife and I really enjoyed our visit although a tad loud at the time we went on a Wednesday. Still an enjoyable anniversary dinner. Let's see if our next visit will be as pleasing.

We eat here every time we come to Elmira, hands down the best restaurant in the area. The fish fry is and the house salad with Italian dressing and crumbly blue cheese is excellent Service is always good, they really pay attention to the little things. My wife loves the chicken piccata, and the roasted peppers with gorgonzola are seriously amazing.  Well worth the visit you won't get a bad meal here

Excellent restaurant. Quiet, relaxing atmosphere with a great selection of food, beer, wine and desserts.

Went with my family for the first time. Food was awesome ,wait staff attentive , Only issue was not much to offer for dessert.bwould have loved to see some Italian deserts , not peanut butter pie . If your serving Italian food , I feel you have traditional Italian. deserts .Overall the food awesome ,wait staff great, atmosphere great, Dessert needs to be revamped wish I could have given all 5 stars. The desserts selection

Fine dining and a fine time - food is excellent, service is outstanding. A staple of Elmira, worth the trip, every time.

Dark and depressing. Lighting was hiding old and decrepit design. Server was all over and wasn't very attentive. Do you like raw garlic? Go on and get a table here, no need for reservations as there is always an empty table.

Neat little gem of a place- I have driven by many times, but had not stopped by until recently. Pleasantly surprised with the neat interior, there are many vintage photos of Elmira inside, and it is neat and clean. Seemed to be plenty of parking even during the lunch rush. Many options on the menu- everything from basic dogs to loaded dogs, basic burgers to garbage plate burgers, chicken spiedie subs and crispy chicken sandwiches, Philly cheese steak and grilled cheese sandwiches, and boneless wings! Also, nachos, onion rings, fried cauliflower, mozz sticks, jalapeno poppers, salads, homemade potato and macaroni salads, too. French fries come in many different guises- by themselves or with gravy, loaded, chili cheese, or sweet potato. Ice cream for after the meal- sundaes, cups and cones, milk shakes and floats are available. I thought that the prices are below what I generally find when eating out in other establishments. We paid around $10 each for our lunches. I ordered the bacon double cheeseburger and a regular order of fries. While the burger patties were not the absolute best I have ever had, overall the burger was very tasty, and well sized for the value. The fries were crispy and hot and I felt that the portion size was excellent. My wife ordered a hotdog, and seemed pleased with it, and she thoroughly enjoyed the order of French fries with gravy. I snuck a few of them and liked the flavor of the gravy. Very tasty indeed. Staff was amenable and friendly, and delivered food to tables. Overall an excellent experience and will definitely go again.

This place is amazing the portions are great. The employees are super nice and sweet. I definitely recommend this place to anyone.

I was serviced by a woman who is more mature in age. If you like being greeted with huffing and puffing this is the place to go. Maybe this person had a rough day but I didn’t asked to be treated poorly. Extremely ill-mannered, discourteous, and impolite. Went to this place to order three ice cream’s at 6:20 PM.By the way they close at 7 PM. I think 40 minutes to make three ice cream‘s is plenty of time and not cutting it too close to closing.

Awesome hotdogs 🌭 and sweet potato fries. And wonderful service. A must go place. Yummy Philly cheese steak.

Great food!! And it's really reasonably priced. They also have good ice cream too 😛

Retro feel with a courteous staff. Actual ice cream milkshakes, not fast food sludge. Also a must try for the HUNGRY, is a garbage plate with burgers or dogs, and Mac n cheese or potatoes.

Less than 5 minute wait to order & pay...friendly staff. Food was amazing & my hot dogs snapped!

Food was unreal. Nalli biryani, Dhagha Kabab, just priceless and mouth watering. Their lassi was also good and sweet. Staff played with the kids and cleaned after them without any complaints and our server also had great recommendations for us as we thought about what to buy.

This park is solid. There are horseshoe pits,a nice playground, a fairly old splash pad, and a nice rentable pavilion. There can be some trash, but there are numerous community groups that do clean up days throughout the year.

Not much going on and not very big BUT, it's a good spot to fly drones, smoke a blunt, monkey bars for the kids, NO bathroom, unless it's wed or something stupid. Just to get out the house for a min..

Had a wonderful time with my dad and family. Enjoyed the conversations and the food was delicious as well. Hats off to Elenore for getting us together and I hope to do more with the family in the future. God bless you all and looking forward to what is next to come.

Park under capped disgusting not safe for children just all around bad

Nice and clean park.

It would be nice if the drug addicts would utilize the trash cans available at the park instead of tossing there bags on the ground for my kids to pick up. Otherwise we highly enjoyed the fact the everything wasn't wrapped with caution tape and closed as we encourage our children to be as active as possible with very little access to the internet and TV as possible. Also the squirrels are entertaining and semi domesticated!!! Not only did our children enjoy them but my husband and I also enjoyed them.

Wonderful venue for top quality productions. Broadway quality. We saw Dear Evan Hansen last night and it was fantastic.

Great time at the Clemens Center last night for the New York State of Drag show! Beautiful venue with a wonderful, helpful staff to keep everything running smoothly for the excellent event turnout!

Mrs. Doubtfire! Was the bomb diggity tonight!! The stage, and show ALL THE RAGE! Seriously, full house! This show rocked! Clemans Center beautiful 😍 Volunteers were helpful and amazing!

We always have such a great time, no matter what kind of show we go to! The staff are beyond friendly and so helpful! The seating area is well taken care of and very clean, and they have booster seats for younger kiddos who have a hard time seeing. We are truly blessed to have a staple like the Clemens Center near us to have access to the shows that they provide.

It was great! Kenny G didn't disappoint 🙌 but the bass guitarists feedback from sound system was off. Awesome to get an autograph with Kenny G

Always great to catch a show here while in Elmira. Nice theater and great people that run it

Beautiful theatre! Not a ton of backstage space or dressing room space, but definitely not the smallest theater I've ever been in. Had a great couple of days in Elmira!

It was refreshing to find a different cafe around in Elmira with better vegetarian food options. $38 for a flatbread, panini, and a small mocha + tips. 😐; seems overpriced. 2 hardworking servers, overwhelmed with orders. Chips & salsa tasted like a generic brand. Panini needs some more fillings. Flat bread was good. Hot Mocha was quite hot.

Stopped in today for the first time. I got a sausage egg and cheese on a plain bagel. They offer plain or everything only. Everything on the bagel was great. The bagel was just ok at best. My co-worker had a breakfast burrito and was not impressed. Staff was very nice.

I was in Elmira so I decided to a stop at turtle leaf for the first time in a while. Ordered a strawberry turkey brie and began waiting. While I’m waiting one of the employees comes out from the back and asked if anyone had picked up the strawberry turkey Brie with no pesto yet. Another employee said no I don’t know who ordered that. So I end up waiting about 15 minutes for my sandwich and the girl comes out and says what was your order again? I said strawberry turkey brie she goes the one without pesto? I said no a normal one. So I see them go in the back and she comes back out with my sandwich I leave and when I open it in my car sure enough it’s the strawberry turkey brie that had been sitting on the counter for 15 minutes that was made with no pesto only now they added fresh pesto to it. It was cold, the cheese was no longer melted and it wasn’t the sandwich I ordered. The place has really gone downhill. Last time at turtle leaf.

Great breakfast sandwiches, but being that i paid for double portions of sausage bacon and eggs on my cinnamon bagel and didn't get it, i give a 1 star (idiots and laziness ruin a reputation fast). The one star is for the extra money I paid to not get what I asked for and the attitude I have now, being that I drove back home, got undressed and immediately got pissed off after discovering this monstrosity. Will change review when I come back if this doesn't happen again.

Definitely use to be one of my favorite restaurants. Being a vegetarian and wanting fresh healthy food I use to eat there very often. Turtle Leaf Cafe food quality and food prep are definitely lacking ... Tried to contact the owner through his email to discuss my concerns and share photos of my most resent experience, but never got a response .. That alone tells me lots . These two sandwiches were 23 dollars and they both were a huge disappointment ..

We used to love this cafe, and have been trying to visit for the past few years but they are closed on Sunday. Finally, we tried coming up on a Friday morning and they listed a "Closed for medical emergency" sign on the door. Disappointing. Will not come back.

this place has went down hill bad.a week ago I couldn't place an order because they dont do orders on Wednesday through doordash.two days ago canceled my order be cause they didn't have what I wanted n now it was just canceled for same reasons. Just shut down already if u dont know how to do inventory n keep the customers satisfied. n3ver again will I order from them again

Food was okay. Could use some more flavor and more veggies. Prices were great. Restaurant could use a big upgrade especially the restrooms. Waitress was attentive.

A nice Chinese restaurant with good food, an affable host, and good service. I like my food a bit spicy, and although the Kung Poa Chicken is already listed as hot and spicy, I know many Chinese restaurants have lowered the spiciness to better suit some Americans tastes. I asked for extra spicy and got just what I wanted. Nice dining atmosphere as well. If you like Chinese food, it's a great place to go.

Food was very good with lots of options. The rice noodles "Mei Fun" were very good. The dumplings were delicious. Our waiter was very helpful and funny, giving us suggestions. We would all recommend Beijing Garden if you are looking a good chinese restaurant, to go or eat in.

I was excited to try this place but was VERY disappointed with what I received. I paid almost over $100 and the portion sizes for only the 3 dishes, side of fried rice and a soup was upsetting for the price I paid. The portion sizes are small so if you are expecting bigger portions for at least $12 per then just order from somewhere else. I ordered moo-shu pork and it was very bitter like it was reheated to many times.

The chair was dirty from the Hoisin sauce spot, but besides that, the overall is very clean, with no dust. The server forgot to add shrimp to the order but promptly responded to fixed. The kung pao sauce was too salty. The mixed fried rice was excellent. The free hot tea is lovely. The atmosphere was decent. There were a lot of takeout orders. Overall, it was better than I expected. I was satisfied and will go back. 😀

Always have friendly staff and never really had an issue with them. Food is always pretty good and nicely priced. However, I don't know HOW you forget to put noodles in chow mein. I had to leech off of someone elses lo mein because they had me eating chicken and celery.

I have to say, whenever coming to Beijing Gardens, whether it be for lunch or dinner; I have never been disappointed in any way. What a lovely experience. The ambiance is serene and subdued, with authentic Asian tunes playing in the background and a tastefully decorated space. The service is excellent. Today, our waiter, Michael, was helpful, diligent in making sure our needs were met, and was a very entertaining fellow who was a pleasure to talk with. The food was excellent. Not over spiced, and dietary instructions were followed to the letter. Our appetizer, the fried dumplings were delicious, and our entrees followed suit. We left very satisfied. The serving of a hot pot of complimentary Asian tea with homemade fried noodles and duck sauce made the experience complete. We drive a distance to enjoy Bejing Gardens, but it is always worth the trip.

6 of us went to dinner here. It's an old out of date restaurant and the place was almost empty. Counting us, there were 3 tables with customers. The waiter was friendly and prompt. We ordered dinner without appetizers. I ordered ribeye steak medium rare. My girlfriend ordered shrimp scampi. The meals came with salad which was brought to the table right away. The salad was a touch wilty but not bad. My steak was cooked to perfection. It was at least 16 oz. I ate every bite. My girlfriend said her shrimp scampi was delicious. Shrimp snappy and fresh. All in all, a good experience. We'll definitely be back.

After waiting 35 minutes just to be acknowledged by the waitress, I was starving. We had a table of 10, we order our drinks and food all at once. I ordered spaghetti with meat balls and a "garden" salad, thinking I'd receive some fresh leafy greens because of the high prices only to get oily Italian dressing and bagged salad... the garlic bread our table shared was greasy and tasted like vegetable oil. I could have had better tasting spaghetti out of a jar and the meatballs were so over seasoned. I live out of state and was visiting family. But i definitely wouldn't return, the decor is outdated and so is the food. The prices are outrageous when I could be getting better food at Olive Garden! This place is running on nostalgia.

Never hurts to make a reservation, but even if you don't they will always try to fit in parties of any size. The tender fillet medallions melt in your mouth with delicious flavor, with a garlic scampi style of sauce to rest in. The sooner salad with Italian dressing is spectacular, especially if you requires the crumbly blue cheese on it as well. The side dish of pasta has a very flavorful tomato flavor. The servers will always accommodate parties for birthdays and any other special occasions. Definitely enjoy some meals here and avoid the chain restaurants, you will not regret the choice.

For valentines day they were unprepared and understaffed. Seated in a dining room with no heat. Everyone in room had their winter coats on. Waited 3 hours for steaks that were so raw no one including tables around us, as in people we had never met, could eat their meal. Then after watching multiple tables get up and just leave this house of horrors we received a $300.00 bill. My raw filet is in my fridge, will be cooking it later tonight. Do not go here, if you look at my other reviews. I am fair, probably too nice but this was by far the WORST dinning experience I have ever had.

For the cost, it wasn't worth it. It was advertised as an upscale restaurant and it definitely was not. I was in a dress and my husband in khakis and we were very overdressed. We ordered basic dishes and they were okay but not authentic. They seemed just like the big chains. When I ordered at baked potato, I got HALF of a potato. I'd prefer a smaller potato over half of one. The canoli was the only good thing. We will not go back.

Went there for Valentine’s Day made reservations a hour before, we showed up and They couldn’t find our name anywhere. The old man standing at the counter gave me grief about where I worked when he saw my coat I was wearing. Finally got seated ordered food and waited over 2 hours to get our food. Once we got our food the plates where cold and food was barely warm. I ordered a broiled ribeye and paid 39.99 for it, I ended up getting food poisoning and puking it up at 3 in the morning. My wife’s lasagna was burnt and cold. Just a horrible experience all the way around

Appetizers were decent. Fried clams and french onion soup. Pasta sauce tasted like it was cooked WAY too long in a crockpot and had a burnt flavor that wouldn't go away...ordered strawberry cheesecake to get the flavor out of my mouth and the strawberries had started to ferment and way overpriced

We stopped for dinner before a show. Everything was amazing. The staff were wonderful. The fried calamari appetizer was really something special best I have ever had. My steak was cooked perfectly. My parents had clams in red sauce which was delicious. My wife had homemade pasta and sausage which I tried and was very good. Side salads were simple and perfect served with fresh bread. Drinks from the bar were made just as I requested. What a great place to start out a special night.

Amazing meal! The bone-in pork chop is absolutely phenomenal; so juicy and tender and flavorful! The scallops with pesto spinach risotto are also a hit. As for the atmosphere, there was live music adding to the quiet personal ambience of the place. Everyone was so friendly, including those sitting around you. Highly recommend 10/10!!

One of the best mom and pop style restaurants in the Elmira New York area. Excellent service with spectacular menu options. The menu does offer specials depending upon the season so the selection is never dull. The chef can specialize options to meet dietary needs. So not hesitate in experiencing this fine place.

I hate to give a review this negative. I think their cook has ruined their sense of taste through smoking. Everything was WAYYYY over salted, to the point of ruining the food. I've known a few chefs who smoke too much and they all over salt their food. Also the wine i ordered was corked...

Simply awesome. A little out of the way place that's a golden gem. Super nice staff, excellent food that is flavorful and social media post worthy, if you're into that sort of thing. My wife and I moved to Elmira 8 years ago and we just discovered this place recently, been there twice so far and we both agree it's our new favorite spot for date night. A Little on the expensive side of things , but this is no corporate franchise, it's a local treasure, totally worth it.

Came here for my one year anniversary with my girlfriend. Had a wonderful experience, with plenty of excellent dishes, including the bacon wrapped scallops, crab rangoon, stir fry with beef tips, and a good Delmonico steak. All courses were good, though my girlfriend did think the French Onion soup was a little on the weaker side. Dinner was rounded off with some excellent dessert, a cheesecake slice with caramel sauce, and peanut butter pie. Highly recommend, the restaurant has an intimate ambiance with small seating area. Parking is on the street only, and with limited seating a reservation is recommended on the weekend.

Hometown favorite for many. Great for intimate family dinners. Real restaurant vibe ypu just can't get from the chain restaurants.

The taste of the food is a 10 out of 10. Everything is made fresh. Everything we had tasted great!! Prices are better then great. The only downside is the inside of the building is old. Kind of depressing. Not allot of light at all. The condiments were less then desirable. But the taste of the food is so good you hardly need any. Their hours are short. I highly recommend eating here. Even if it's take out. We will definitely be returning!!

This is the perfect local coffee shop. The food is good, the prices can't be beat. There's no "franchise" feel or fancy dishes. The place has definitely got an abundance of character. The staff is always friendly and outgoing. There's always laughter to be heard and an upbeat attitude. Anderson's Cozy Corner is absolutely a homegrown treasure

This our weekly breakfast spot. There are a LOT of regulars. We hit this place every Sunday, and the food is good, the prices fair, and the coffee is my favorite. Service is always friendly, you might have to wait a bit when they are busy, but that's because they are cooking your food up fresh. Take out or eat in, this place is a great place to go. 10/10 would recommend.

A solid middling experience. 👌 Even hung over as all heck, the food was still "necessary, but not great." There are better greasy spoon diners, but this was not terrible. FYI, you can just park out back.

I’m a sucker for barstool diners. Friendly staff. Building is old. Bathroom is old but clean enough. Obviously a small town diner. Everone knows everyone. Wish it was closer to home. I would be a repeat customer. Food was good.

Was in Elmira, NY visiting my cousin and we wanted breakfast. Don who lives in the area suggested this place and it was the perfect choice for our needs. Service was a little slow, however I'm looking at it from a city living perspective. The menu is simple and the food was delicious. I tried Buckwheat pancakes for the first time and they were phenomenal. I can't remember what I had, not that it wasn't good it's because I smoke weed so my memory is bad, however I remember it being quite delicious 😋. The staff was friendly and the place has very simple decor. I'm sure I will never go back(distance and I hate NY), however it will always be a pleasant memory of my Vacation with my mother for my cousins retirement, anniversary and birthday party! (The pic is from us on the road not at the location)

We enjoy our weekly (at least) visits to "the corner" as we call it. Good food at reasonable prices. Nice staff! Edit: added a photo. We still enjoy regular visits to the corner. Very affordable for most anyone.
