"To stroll through the streets of Chautauqua in summer is to fill one's nose with the charcoal of outdoor grills and one's ears with the chatter of countless private dinner parties. These gatherings appear as central to the experience of Chautauqua in summer as the official events of the Institute. They are also clearly essential, as the public dining options inside the gate are fit only for wailing and gnashing of teeth. Having previously sampled the variations on a theme of prison loaf on offer at the Athenium Hotel and finding them wanting, we opted instead for reservations at La Familia. Surely, we thought, it could hardly be worse than the Athenium? . . . Alas, it could, and alas, it wa...

Robin
Very underwhelming. A simple “rare” hamburger was over cooked and served with soggy chips. Ordered three courses and never had a dirty dish removed unless we handed it to a waiter walking by. Ordered three beers from the menu that were all out of stock. Paid top dollar for McDonald’s service and food

This restaurant has wonderful food. The buffet was $18 which might seem a bit high but it is on Institute grounds and the food is of very high quality. I thought that it was well worth it. All of the fruits and vegetables were fresh and well prepared. The staff was prompt and attentive as one would expect of a family owned and run establishment. I would rate this as the best food in Chautauqua!
