Borio's Restaurant - Cicero

The outdoor seating and the views of the lake are really nice. I came here to enjoy a night out with my parents. I've heard a lot about this place and wanted to see what the hype was about. We ordered a few drinks while waiting the hour for our table. The margaritas were made well. The inside decor is dated to me but that's not a deal breaker for me when dining out. I ordered their baked haddock dish and I was disappointed. I was hoping for more flavor but didn't get it. The dinner rolls were also very hard and the food overall was ok. I would only return here to have a drink outside, watching the boats on the lake.

Again I am a four-star man. Not sure if everyone knows the Restaurant has been sold. But I am sure the new owner will continue the high quality of food and service. Always said to see along time owner retire, but thank you for years of service. Thank you, for the amount of catering, Weddings and family parties. And yes I happen to know the owners for many years. The operation has been a class act for years. Hope the next chapter in your life is everything you hope for. Again thank you and our lunch is always great. Take care and enjoy your next chapter .

Racist and discriminatory behavior by owner...My family went here recently for my father 's birthday. My mom called twice a few days prior trying to make a reservation for 20 people and asked if she could bring a cake. Both times the receptionist (who is family with the owner) said they don 't take reservations but could do a walk in and she could bring a cake. (Already poor restaurant management experience bc who in their right mind says a 20 top walk in is ok lol) anyway...on the day of my mom called 15 minutes before my family was set to arrive just to confirm for a third time that they were good to walk in as a 20 top and was transferred to the owner who said ABSOLUTELY NOT and that they better not come by the restaurant. Frantically my mom and family tried to figure out where to go for my dad 's birthday with 20 people waiting to figure out the new plan. After calling multiple restaurants who said they couldn 't take a large group last minute (obviously), they decided to try to go to this restaurant and just get multiple smaller tables at varying times in an effort to help out and not inundate the waitstaff and kitchen at the same time. Upon arrival the owner yelled at my mom and told her again ABSOLUTELY NOT and that he told her to stay away. He then said that it was impossible the receptionist during the week told her it was ok to walk in as a 20 top bc it is his family (lol). He then said in front of my entire family and in the most rude and degrading tone possible: IT IS BECAUSE OF YOUR ACCENT THEY DON 'T UNDERSTAND YOU. My mom is Brasilian and has lived in the US for 30 years and has nearly perfected her English during that time...she was embarrassed and felt incredibly disrespected by this little man. You would think after the restaurant having struggled through the pandemic there would be some sense of humility. But alas- true colors always shine through. Long story short: discriminatory, racist, rude, and overall poor restaurant management by the owner From one Italian (me) to another (this restaurant 's owner): VAFFANCULO

Great service and super fresh food. Loved the baked cod. My husband loved his scallops. They were accommodating with my vegan daughter and created a vegan burrito. Awesome views of Lake Oneida.

Horrible people and horrible food! Do not go here unless you want old half spoiled food. I understand businesses are struggling but you can't make people sick! When I complained, the owners were very defensive and yelled at me. Horrible...I have never been treated so poorly.
