The only one I have visited is the Horned Dorset. I guess fine dinning is not my thing.

Kathy and I have eaten at the Horned Dorset also CB. I was not impressed. I guess my palate is not sufficiently sophisticated enough to appreciate the cuisine.
We also ate at the Wildflower at the Turning Stone. It's in the Lodge adjacent to the Golf Course. The food was excellent, but a bit pricey for our liking.
We don't often patronize high end, high dollar restaurants. I am more a fan of a good $30 steak with a baked potato and a salad, or a $15 dinner at the Olive Garden. We went out for Kathy's birthday in September and invited a couple we go out with quite often. I grabbed the tab and it came to a little over $150 for the four of us, including appetizers, entrees and desserts. I about had a coronary, haha.

Ive been to Max's Chop House during the Jazz Fest. It's right across the street from Eastman Theater but not to Pane Vino.

Isn't it rather amusing that no matter how expensive or least expensive our food choices are it all comes out as crap.

My girlfriend and I ate at The Krebs when we stayed in Skaneateles several years ago... probably before the new ownership and renovation. The food was only so-so for the price, and the grounds were in fairly desperate need of repair. All-in-all it wasn't worth what we paid. I'm glad The Krebs has been restored, although I can no longer afford to dine there. Besides, I don't have that girlfriend any more.
However, there was a restaurant called "Rosalie's Cuccina" back toward the village that was wonderful. In the back of the building was a bakery called "Crustellini's" that made, among other things, 'bone bread' which was similar to Ciabatta except that it was a crusty soft loaf that was pulled from the middle just prior to baking so it looked like a large bone. Many visitors to Skaneateles bough a couple of loaves to take home to wherever they lived. Before dinner, Rosalie's Cuccina would serve a loaf of their fresh hot bone bread to each table along with a large tray of various condiments in separate bowls like grated Parmesan, flakes of various herbs (grown in the garden out back), pepper flakes, etc. In the middle was a bowl of warm, fruity olive oil. You'd tear off a hunk of bread, dip it in the oil then dip it into whichever condiment you liked. If I said this was 'to die for' I wouldn't be stretching the truth very much. The only thing is that when your entree came, you'd be so full you couldn't finish it all and had to ask for a take-home container. It wasn't a cheap dinner but it was worth every penny.
