Sadly, our dear friend and owner of Stonecat has passed away. But the Stonecat lives on, with many of the classic menu items remaining. Service has changed, however. No reservations anymore, and orders are placed and they text you when it’s ready. So it’s a totally different experience than it once was.

Steve Shaw and son are making some of the best wine around. What sets Shaw Winery apart from other Seneca Lake Wineries? First, it is not your typical “styled winery. It’s unpretentious, rustic and somewhat refreshingly wild. This is an artisan winery dedicated to cellar aging, and risk taking since 2002. Aging and quality is their focus. Father and Son are a testament to “Old World” craftsmanship, creativity and a passion for wine making. The whites are refreshingly different from others you may taste. The reds are stellar. Do not miss Shaw Winery.
