Joelle's French Bistro 4423 State Street, Skaneateles, NY 13152

"A hidden GEM! I can’t believe it took us 2 years to find this restaurant just outside Skaneateles. One of the best dining experiences we’ve had in a very long time. Unmatched service, superb and unique cuisine that was totally unexpected. We dined on the back patio and it was simply perfect! Highly recommend!"

"Great outdoor seating on the deck, food was delish, and staff was very attentive. Truly authentic fare."

"Food and the view was perfect! We especially enjoyed appetizers(oyster and onion soup)."

"It's easy to rate Joelle's at 5☆! The food was amazing!! The appetizers were beautiful and delicious. The salad with boursin in a purse, and the mushroom soup were outstanding. We loved the shrimp dish and the halibut. We all shared a perfect flaming crème brûlée. I suspect anything on the menu would be excellent. The service was super friendly. The atmosphere was great!! Enjoy!!!"

"Great date night dinner! Always a warm, friendly atmosphere! We usually call for reservations and request the outside patio if the forecast looks good. It does get a little "buggy" as the sun goes down. They have bug spray or bring your own. Hey it's CNY! Full drink selection with French wines of course! The gourmet menu is on par, next to none, and consistent year after year (we have been coming here since 2012ish) from the appetizers to entrees ending with their desserts. A must try for decerning palates. Pricing is right for drinks, food, and ambience. There were some families there with children, wanted to add that in to let you know it not a "stuffy" establishment!"
