Top 15 Budget-Friendly Restaurants Near You in Waterloo, NY

Joan Salandy We came on a quiet Saturday afternoon. The guy took his time to explain what was in the food. He wasn’t pushy but very informative. The food was fresh, hot and served to our table. Loved it. And I’m a picky eater. I would recommend to try it at least once. Peace and blessings all.

Sarah SP Great service, great food, it was even better than I remembered!! Used to come here a lot during grad school, now that we live in Syracuse we visit 1x a year and it’s always sooo good and fresh! The best!

Mike King Travel alot for work, so always looking for that go too spot while, I am in a certain area. First night ordered a Ribeye and its probably one if the top 5 ribeyes Ive had. (Coming from a guy that raises his own beef and knows how to cook a steak". Came back the next night and ordered the half chicken. Was also perfect. I was unaware until later in the evening, that the owner cooks all the food and her mother is actually the one in charge of all the deserts. After eating dinner was fortunate to have a lomg great conversation with the owner, the manager, the mother and father. Starrs a great cook and buisness owner and her family speaks volumes about that! Great people, great food, great atmosphere. Ill eat here everytime im in town, no reason to go else where.

Britt Snider Today was my first time visiting Geneva, NY (work trip) and I stopped into Tuccis for brunch. Im very glad I did. The place is comfortable, quiet, has good music, and excellent menu choices. The absolute best thing was the food!! Phenomenal ❤️. I got the country benny, which is a half order of biscuits and gravy with over medium eggs and beef hash, with a side of bacon and a coffee. Every bite was delightful. The biscuits were crisp on the bottom, the hash complimented the gravy to perfection. The coffee was really good; Ive had some crap diner coffee before, but not at Tuccis. Best of all was the kindness and attentiveness of the "staff", which was the owner Nick and his brother. Nick was serving and recommended a few options, one of which was the country benny. Im glad I didnt just go with a stack of pancakes because, oh boy, that was good. Nicks brother is the chef, and came out of the kitchen to chat when it was a bit slow. Honestly, I have no idea why it was slow, because I love everything about this place and more people should be eating there. I also recommend their deserts. Nick gave me a free slice of lemon cake before I headed out. It had just the lightest touch of lemon, very subtle, and soft cake with frosting that wasnt overly sweet. Ill definitely be coming back the next time Im in town.

Artistry 2004 Ate here for the first time today and loved it! I ordered the Chicken Soulvaki Pita and fries. The portions were large. The Pita wrap here is one of the largest I have ever seen. The chicken was juicy and cooked to perfection. I highly recommend trying the Chicken Soulvaki Pita if you havent already.

Thomas Robinson I love Wendys. Thier burgers and nuggets are so good. However, their breakfast is delicious too! I got the Breakfast Baconator with some tater wedges. It was so tasty. The restaurant is clean, well lit and has a very nice staff. At 9am Miss Brittany even offered us lunch options, but said they would take just a bit longer than breakfast items. Its great to have that selection. They have a drive thru, self order kiosk or order from a person at the counter. If you want a scrumptious breakfast sandwich, hit up Wendys. This restaurant is colocated within a gas station/convenience store. There is a Subway here too, that looks pretty good (for a subway)

Trish LaVere The guy running it is very friendly and great with customers. The pretzels are made in front of you and are absolutely phenomenal. Smoothies are made with real fruit and are amazing and fresh. I will be going here for something to eat and/or drink every time I come to the mall. Especially over the food court.

Christy Sodan Come out to Rick Hortons Metal Meltdown great bands. Great food! Every year in August

Tammy Lass Excellent customer service. Got to hear a quick story about how the restaurant is named after their mom. We had the Latin Style Pulled Pork dish with Mac and cheese and Spanish rice. It was so good and the price right. They also recognize those that have served with a Veteran discount. Will be coming here again next time were in town!

Elliott Hoth Decent amount of options just do not expect it to be cheap!

Donna Wylie Best. Barbecue. Ever! We got pulled pork and ribs, with some sides. The meat was PERFECT, falling off the bone ribs and tender pulled pork. The meat was all well seasoned, with generous portions. I judge a barbecue place by how well they can make cole slaw (one of my favorite sides) - these folks passed with flying colors! The owners are Sooo kind and caring, making sure everyone feels welcomed. Wish they were open every day.

Chadwick Zaleski Natalie did an amazing job. Took time to make the sub and put a lot of care into it

Holly Mosher Stopped on a whim, hungry. Very busy on a Friday afternoon about 5pm but we found a seat at the counter. Immediately waited on & food came quickly. Hot, fresh, abundant & a excellent fish fry supper at a great price. Cool place, lots to look at, quite popular. Cash only with atm in entry way. No alcohol, ice cream fountain available.

becki jade Hands down some of the best food I have had !!!! The egg rolls were delish!!! They have this sauce that was served along with the meal (a little salty) that was so flavorful!!! They even serve wonton strips while you wait!!!! Their fried dumplings! Were so good!!!

Elliott Hoth Ive ordered from Pats Pizzeria in Waterloo several times, and its hands down the best pizza in the Finger Lakes! The crust is perfectly crispy, the toppings are fresh, and the cheese is always melted to perfection. The staff is friendly and the service is quick, making it my go-to spot for a delicious meal. Whether youre a local or just passing through, dont miss out on this gem. Highly recommend!
