Central City Bar & Grill - Restaurant in Cortland - 17 Central Ave, USA

Excellent food, excellent service. It was busy when we sat and we left alone (we both like that when at a new place). I had the Cajun and tiger wings. Cajun wings where perfectly done, but just a little too salty for my liking (only negative about the meal). Tiger wings we're just amazing with chilli with pineapple glaze. Prime rib was perfect.

We try to support locals when traveling. I ordered a stout and the first sip was sour like candy. Our medium burger was jet black to the center and was missing the advertised bacon with the mac and cheese. Our salad was watery and was missing any flavor or salt. The chicken parmesan was so microwaved that it was like tearing apart leather trying to chew it. The pasta was still visibly watery. Also had a fruit fly flying around us. We tried hard to find a redeeming factor and all we could come up with was the crunchy chips with the burger. Also, the three very nice and kind bartenders/ servers we met. Sadly, I'd avoid it based on this food. Sunday night shouldn't be food this old, leftover and then microwaved to order.

One fall Saturday, a friend and I stopped for holiday drink. It was very busy but Vanessa, the bartender, was friendly and cool despite the short handed crew. She made a delicious pumpkin tiki. I was impressed by her professionalism and friendly smile.

Great place to eat. Hidden slightly down a one way street but great food and staff was very helpful.

Friendly staff, attentive service. Ruben was great. The homemade chips are really good as well. Extensive beer list.... you should go here.

Server was not very attentive because she was also the bartender and serving everyone else. She was friendly, though. The garlic parmesan tenders were good, as well as the white chicken chili. Onion rings were also pretty good. Especially with their honey mustard. Drinking water tasted like it came out of a faucet as opposed to a real tap. Nachos we're not good at all. Sent them back. The location is pretty seedy. There was literally a pile of dog pooh on the sidewalk where I parked.

3 staff talking at the bar. Only 2 other tables with people. Sat a good 10 minutes while the 3 staff at the bar continued to goof off. Sad because we used to like to come there. Ended up at The Rock. Waited on right away

Large portions, very friendly staff, quick service, the ranch dressing is awesome! House made croutons, we had buttermilk fried chicken and brisket, both were very tasty.
