Center Cut

Reviewed By deborahk143

Center Cut has all the ambiance of an Applebee's and the fine cuisine of an Outback. Really, when I'm paying top dollar for a steak dinner on a special occasion, I want the medium-rare to be medium-rare, not medium-well. I want the Bernaise sauce to be thick and delicious. And I want to feel that I'm getting the quality of service befitting such astronomical prices. I don't want a waitress-in-training fumbling around and not knowing what to do. I'm sure there are those who will love this place. They're the people at the bar who seemed to be having a great time while I did my best to eat my over-cooked steak in a noisy, boisterous environment that makes up for in price what they lack in sophistication. Just because you charge a lot, and use good ingredients, doesn't mean you actually know how to cook and serve them appropriately.

The Villa Coffee House used to be a favorite in Lewiston, but since Tommy George retired and sold it, the new owner just can't find a way to bring the same charm and food to the table.

Tin Pan Alley

Reviewed By JuneNY

A friend and I took a day trip to Lewiston and Youngstown today. We were in Lewiston at lunch time. I wanted to have lunch at someplace new to me, so I chose Tin Pan Alley.We were happy with the atmosphere, the service and our meals. I had a beer battered fish dinner including a potato, roll and butter and coleslaw. It was not huge, but it was not small and I was not able to finish everything on my plate.I will definitely go here again when I am in Lewiston.

We stopped at the Griffon House during the annual peach festival and this place did not disappoint. Tokyo Collins was so yummy. Tried the tuna nachos. The ambiance is cool - love the oversize wooden tables and historical structure.

Water Street Landing

Reviewed By Heidi Z

Had dinner here with a friend for Friday fish fry - our waiter Josh was so nice and seemed to really enjoy his work! Aside from his friendliness and attention to service, our food came without any delay and was really good! Menu prices are reasonable and selections were enticing - will return to try some other options! The place is spacious but cozy - and the view of the River is wonderful from just about anywhere!

Syros Restaurant

Reviewed By SenoraSofia

Wow, wow, wow. It was the most delicious breakfast.We both ordered our eggs with a Greek twist. My meal was loaded with the most tasty peppers, onions and potatoes. My spouse's meal included the gyro meat.Everything was so well cooked and fresh, and what a nice large serving. We were hungry and we ate every bite.Our waiter was great, and he kept the fresh coffee pouring our way.We had never been to Lewiston, and will definitely be back both to this restaurant for a lunch or dinner and to walk the downtown business district.My husband picked this restaurant, and I am grateful that he did. It made our time along the Niagara River more memorable and enjoyable.

Brickyard Pub & BBQ

Lewiston's First Authentic Pit BBQ Smokehouse.

Reviewed By TrpReviwr

I couldn’t find a separate listing for Brickyard Brewing Company, which is attached to the Brickyard, so I’m putting my review here as I see a few others have done. We visited with both adults and children. Very family friendly. There were a few vegetarian selections - soy burger on the sandwich menu, and pierogi and hummus on the small plates section. The soy burgers were okay. The side salad was really pretty good with the Thai vinegarette. We tried a couple flights of beer and the beers were pretty good. No official kids menu but the waiter said they could make grilled cheese, pizza logs or chicken fingers for the kids. Nice, laid back atmosphere. Good service. Next time we might try the Brickyard.

Apple Granny

Reviewed By Allison H

The menu showed such promise. I was actually excited to try some good comfort food. What a disappointment. I had a vegetable plate which included macaroni and cheese, and mashed potatoes. It is hard to screw up those two dishes, but somehow they managed. Both dishes tasted off. Just off, just wrong. No cultural, regional differences nonsense—they were just off. It was also uncomfortably hot, despite being air conditioned. Our server disappeared. We had to search the restaurant to find her to get our check. Then, we had to hunt her down to get her to cash us out. Never again.
