We arrived at Elderberry Ponds just after noon on a Saturday on a cool, windy day in mid April after visiting the Harriett Tubman Home in Auburn (and before going to the Schweinfurth Memorial Art Center) - no reservations and at the height of a weekend lunch hour. We found only a couple of other cars in the parking lot,... More

We had the Dicken's dinner, in accordance with the Tudor decoration, singers etc, in Skeneateles before Christmas. it was very yummy. Others had the duck, which they said was outstanding. Our guests said they had enjoyed lunches there in the summer on an outdoor patio. Would love to return.

My first time at this lovely restaurant and I wonder what took me so long to get here? Entering the dining room on a beautiful fall evening one finds a stunning fireplace lit and low lighting which creates the perfect ambience! There's somethinbg about dining in low light that makes it more memorable! The food was luscious, the wine cold... More

This restaurant was in the middle of nowhere and I would have never known about it expect I recevied a gift certiifcate to go there. I thought the atmosphere was nice, service was great and the food was excellent! My husband had the duck and I had the halibat and both were extremely tasty. The organic wine they served there...

The restaurant is nice, with an interesting enough menu. The food was average, though; perhaps a little better, but not exceptional. The kitchen shut down early, and we had to order early for some guests who were arriving late: 8:30 PM! It just didn't seem like it would take much effort to keep the kitchen functioning until they arrived and... More

Elderberry Pond is in the middle of a working farm that produces much of what is presented in the restaurant. But, it's not rustic. It's quite stylish. The food is good - not great by any means - but good enough. A fireplace in the winter. Fresh veggies, hams, pork and much else. A menu that reflects the seasons. Welcoming... More

A wonderful evening in a very warm atmosphere. From the welcome (we were a half hour early, but were quickly accommodated) to dessert, the service was gracious and effective. When you can't decide which of your dishes is the best, and have trouble stopping yourself from licking the bowl, you know you've had great experience. Notable dishes were the Brie... More

I was visiting from NYC and very much looking forward to farm to table dining. We needed to push back our reservation and add another person and they were able to accommodate us. Once seated a very inexperienced waiter came to our table and was not helpful in answering any questions about the menu. I asked if the crab cakes... More

Elderberry Pond is located in a farm area. The building is beautiful with tables and chairs in a Craftsman design. Service is elegant as was the food. It is a bit expensive, but you get what you pay for!
