“Best burger in the area” “great views” “lucky to have food and drinks like this near us”

“Galene is not only the best restaurant in the Finger Lakes, it’s also one of the best restaurants in New York. The restaurant sits in a perfect location on Conesus Lake with amazing waterfront views. The staff were all excellent and made great recommendations.

We had the wasabi caesar, tin of octopus, rigatoni w/broken meatballs, dandan noodles, Delmonico steak, and key lime cheesecake for dessert. Every dish was prepared perfectly, to the point where it was just so surprising because this level of consistency is so rare”

“One of our favorite places directly on the lake. Top notch food, service and atmosphere. Bar is beautiful too with high tops. Sunroom has open air feel, but dining room indoors is lovely too. Tiki Bar & food outdoors is available on the outdoor patio directly on Conesus Lake on a nice warm day on Fri-Sun. A true gem”
