Canal View Cafe - Sylvan Beach

Wow, great food like Mom's house cooked! Turkey dinner, fried Schellfisch, Coquills appetizer, all excellent. At the first visit we will come back.

Always great food, wonderful service. Dillion is the best server. Jean always treats you like family.

The food was good. Had the fish fry. The bread on the fish was easy. Fish was boiled right. Friends were good. Surprised there was no Cole Slav to eat...?

One of my favorite places... great ambience, inside or outside along the canal that leads to the Oneida lake. A beautiful menu with a variety of Italian, seafood and American dishes. A culinary experience must not be missed. And you can get by boat if you're lucky to have one.

My boyfriend and I went to on a date night, for the first time in 2 years, only to be disappointed. It was 7:30 pm, so the restaurant was winding down from the dinner rush, it took 15 minutes to be seated. It took a few minutes for our waiter to come once we we 're seated, when the waiter got there we ordered drinks, when our drinks arrived we told him we would like to order appetizers to start with. The appetizers came and we ate them.We saw our waiter walk by us several times, thinking that at any minute he would stop and see if we were ready to order or at least check on us, not once did he even make eye contact, hard to do considering we were sitting in a high boy chair. Finally, after about 30 plus minutes I stopped him and asked him if we could order now, which at this point he rolls his eyes and said what, I thought you were done? If this was the case why were we not given the bill at some point or at least checked on, plus why did he leave the menus with us, which we had been clearly looking at? Had I not have made contact with him first, he would never have reached out to us. I have been a waitress and know how to treat customers, he was unprofessional. I am not the type of person to dish out negative reviews. I had to wait this long to write this because I did not want to be as mad as I was. I suffer from agoraphobia, so for me to even leave my house was a huge deal for me!!! This ruined my night.
