" I had high hopes for Cornell's, but sadly it fell a bit flat for me. The food was average at best, and service was lackluster. Our waiter was attentive but overwhelmed, which led to long wait times. While the place looks lovely, it's the food that ultimately matters. I may give it another chance down the road. " (*Curated Review*)

" Cornell's was a delightful experience for our anniversary dinner. We opted for the Thursday date night special, which included a 6-course meal. Every bite was delicious, especially the risotto and the homemade pasta. The atmosphere was elegant yet comfortable, perfect for a romantic evening. Our server was attentive and made us feel special for our celebration. The portions were also generous, ensuring we left satisfied. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for delicious Italian food! " (*Curated Review*)

" Overall, I was disappointed with my visit to Cornell's. We were celebrating my husband's birthday, and unfortunately, the service was rather slow. We had to wait a long time for drinks and our food. When it finally arrived, my chicken parmesan was overcooked and barely warm. The ambiance was lovely, but it didn’t make up for the lackluster meal. I had heard such great things and was looking forward to it. Sadly, we won't be returning anytime soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" What a gem! I’ve been searching for authentic Italian food since moving to Schenectady, and Cornell’s hit the spot! I tried their seafood risotto—it was to die for! The staff were incredibly welcoming and made sure our glasses were always full. The ambiance was warm with soft lighting, and I felt like I was dining in Italy. We'll definitely be back next week! " (*Curated Review*)

" An unforgettable experience! We attended a family gathering during the holiday season, and Cornell's did not disappoint. The staff was friendly and accommodating, making it easy to enjoy our time together. The food was authentic; I especially loved the Utica greens and the veal cuts we ordered. There was plenty of food, enough to take home leftovers. The ambiance was festive and warm, making it a great spot for celebrations. Will definitely come back next year! " (*Curated Review*)

" Delicious food and great presentation! We celebrated our anniversary here and couldn't have asked for a better experience. The staff went above and beyond to make us feel special. The lobster ravioli was exquisite, and the amount served was enough for two meals! Make reservations as it gets busy! " (*Curated Review*)

" Was my first time at Cornell's and I was very excited to finally try it. The ambiance was lovely, but the service took much longer than I anticipated. The food itself was decent, but it didn't wow me as I had hoped it would. The portions were generous, but I think I'll explore other Italian restaurants in the area in the future.
