The larger cities offer a full range of dining options, from trendy restaurants to ethnic eateries. Ithaca and Rochester, in particular, are havens for vegetarian and ethnic fare. Several inns and B&Bs, mostly outside the urban areas, are known for their fine restaurants and are worth checking out even if you're spending the night elsewhere. Regional wines often show up on menus. (The region's Rieslings, which have garnered high praise, are perfect summer and early-fall sips.) Otherwise, American restaurants, diners, family-style spots, and pizza parlors are the norm; steaks, chops, and prime rib are standards, as are Italian-American dishes.
