My husband and I enjoyed our dinner at Ports on our recent stay in the fingerlakes. My husband had steak and I had scallops and they were both great. more

Our meat was excellent. Great specials. Our meals couldn't have been any better. I recommend reservations. We went on a Tuesday and there wasn't a seat to be found. Glad our B&B told us to go. We had reservations and were seated right away. We were leaving the next day and I wish we could have eaten there again. Far... more

We were in Geneva for the first time, and based on reviews and a local recommendation, decided to try Ports. What a find! It's located a short distance from the downtown area, and looks somewhat like a place you wouldn't try based on the exterior! The menu appeared somewhat pedestrian; however, the waitress announced they have many specials! I think... more

The food at Ports Cafe was excellent. My friend saidof her salmon, "One of the top dishes I've ever had!" My swordfish was good, once they cooked it. It came out half-cooked, or "seared", as they like to call it nowadays. I don't recall that they mentioned it as being a seared dish, or else I would have either avoided... more

My husband and I travel as well as dining out in fine restaurants. We traveled to Geneva to purchase wine and ate dinner at Port's Cafe. It was by far a meal we will talk about for some time to come. We would make the trip again just for dinner. more

We first visited last summer and then again this past week. Can't wait to return again and again and again! Menu is extensive (at least 8-10 additional offerings than on the printed menu), service is friendly and just-right pacing, nice selection of Finger Lake wines, very fresh food cooked just how you like it. Tuna and duck dinner specials were... more

I met a friend from college for dinner. The food was amazing. The special menu is staggering. Our waiter was nice enough to leave the list with us so that we could browse the list and details. We all ordered from the specials menu. The roasted pear salad was delicious and the seafood kabobs were fresh and done perfectly. I... more

We had hoped to spend a leisurley evening tasting Finger Lakes wines and enjoying good food. We were disappointed to learn that only 4 local whites were available by the glass. Everything else was great. They served a 3-glass 'flight' of wine for $8.00. The meal was excellent, our waiter was friendly and helpful, and the decor was cheerful and... more

Who would ever guess that tucked next to an ice cream stand is one of the best kept secrets in the area? Don't bother with the menu. Almost 20 daily specials will be sure to tickle your taste buds. The chief knows his stuff and gets it right. Great wines and beer selection. Be prepared to stay a while. The... more

My husband and I have dined here a few times now and we love it. Service is always good. The menu is small, but the daily special list is very extensive. Everything is fresh and always amazing!! We try something new and different every visit and no complaints. It's the place we take friends and family when they come for... more
