Wonderful food and service. The menu is limited but the food was all good. The BAT sandwich, bacon-arugula-tomato sandwich was unbelieveable good, with so much taste in each bite. Another in our party had the bacon wrapped pork and the pork just melted in your mouth. The fingerling potatoes were also of high quality, I don't know what they did... More

Fun decor with all the mirrors and a great place to relax when touring the museum down the street. The potoato fries are to die for.....

I loved the food, but the service left a lot to be desired, There were not many people in the place. We did not get bread in timely fashion. I think they need to rethink their service,

We ate here with our three tween-age kids, and had a great meal. Not an extensive menu, but plenty to choose from and each meal was delicious and the service was friendly and accomodating. Slightly slow on a busy Friday night, but the quality food was worth the wait.

My wife and I have been visiting Lake Otsego for years, so when we saw this restaurant that we were not familiar with in downtown Cooperstown we decided to give it a shot. Boy where we surprised. I can safely say that the staff is friendly and that on two separate days that we went we did not have a... More

We were traveling to Central New York for a "spring break" weekend. Friends had given Alex and Ika excellent reviews, so we decided it would be worth driving 20 miles out of our way to have lunch there. It wasn't. Suffice to say, it doesn't matter how good the food is when the service is this bad. The hostess/server greeted... More

We had heard about A&I and stopped on our way from Ithaca to Boston on Easter Sunday. Late lunch was excellent - better than excellent. We has a very good Petit Syrah, perfectly cooked pork tenderloin with sautéed apples and cherries and the best sweet potato fries I have ever had - and we are experienced diners. Don't hesitate.

Like everything about this place but the entrees never change and there are no specials or additions. Boring for those of us who eat there regularly.

Restaurant has good atmosphere -- pastel walls decorated with mirrors and retro posters. Food is excellent, if overpriced for the portions you are served. Head waiter can be a bit slow on the uptake - it took several minutes for him to notice us at the door before we were seated in a virtually empty room. A&I features salads, fish... More
