Staying in Naples, NY and decided to give Nolan's a chance on a Thursday night. Place was packed at 6:30 but it seemed to clear out by 7:30. Had the artichokes French for an appetizer, Lobster & crab stuffed sole with the house veggie of fresh asparagus, and finished it all with the peanut butter pie. Everything was excellent from...

We had traveled all the way from Indiana with only car snacks & were pretty hungry. We started with the crab fondue. My husband loved it but I thought the crab tasted a bit stong as in not 100% fresh. So, mixed reviews on that. He ordered the bacon wrapped scallops appetizer & while a bit overdone, they were tasty.... More

We called ahead to make reservations for 2 @ 6:30pm. We arrived at 6:25 and were greeted by a young hostess dressed in a very loose fitting t-shirt style top which looked more like something to be worn at the beach than hostessing a restaurant. Maybe appropriate at Hooters. Hostess told us “your reservation is at 6:30 and your table... More

After a trip to the Sonnenburg gardens, I decided to have an early, outside dinner before going home. I found Nolan's which has a nice view of the lake and an outdoor dining area. I was going to order calamari but the blue crab fondue was too tempting to pass up. It was delicious! The apples and the hot crab... More

unfortunately I wasn't feeling well, but we had a party of 6. everyone seemed to enjoy the food. I usually get steak, but with just getting out of the OR in the hospital less then 24 hours prior, I got a chicken sandwich.

The first lovely Sunday in May called us out to Canandaigua Lake. Unfortunately there's not a lot of restaurants to choose from with a view of the lake, so when we spotted Nolan's, with an outdoor porch, we were in. It's a charming little place, & their menu looked very promising, if not a little pricey. The wine menu was... More

Went here with husband on a date, and he got fish fry and I got a salad. My salad was good, but when I tried his fish fry, I wanted the whole thing! It was soooo good! Service was great as well!

A lovely restaurant on the banks of the lake, the service is friendly and efficient, the menu has great variety and the portions are generous. The calamari was hot and crunchy and served, not with marina, but topped with a mixture of peppers (hot and mild) and a little dressing. The portion was huge. The Cobb salad was also large... More

I cannot say enough about this place. The view was perfect. The service fantastic both times. Lunch we had the Erika which melted in your mouth and the tuna/soup special which my husband loved. At dinner we bought a bottle of wine and had the stuffed haddock and ahi tuna. My only negative was I asked for rare tuna and... More
