If you go to "UBI" thinking you are going to get an "Italian" dining experience like you might in NYC, DO NOT GO. The truth is you certainly will not receive the quality service, and more importantly, the quality of food you would expect. If you enjoy poor service and under-whelming food then you should go. Or, if you like to sit at an obnoxiously loud bar & listen to an obnoxious bartender while you wait, FOREVER, for pretentious food, then go. Additionally, if you enjoy having the owner tell you how, why, when, where, you should eat & what you should like, then go. Unfortunately there is NOTHING special about this place or the food they serve. Consequently, if you really want a good experience in the Keuka Lake area go to one of the local restaurants owned by locals that treat you like family. UBI is not one of those places. And yes, the food may not be the best you ever tasted, but it certainly won't be tainted by the poor taste you would already have in your mouth from the people & service you would get in a place called the Union Block Italian Disastro!!!!

After eating at The Union Block once, it became my favorite restaurant. We have been back, although not as many times as I'd like. I loved the anti-pasta salad and the pumpkin bisque was amazing. Our entrees always look and taste great. My husband gets chicken parm where ever he goes. He feels The Union Block's is superior, even beating out the old Hill Top's in Penn Yan. I highly recommend that you try The Union Block.
