If you happen to find yourself in Canandaigua, New York—a town with a population of under 11,000—it would be wise to find some time to dine at Nolan’s on Canandaigua Lake. It might be a small town, but Nolan’s has big, big flavors. Bring a healthy appetite, because this spot is easily the best seafood in Canandaigua, New York.
Nolan's was established in 2011. It moved in 2014 and suffered a tragic fire in 2017. A year later, they rebuilt their structure; ever since, the restaurant has been a rock solid member of the Canandaigua Community. According to Nolan's website, they are the exclusive caterer for the local Canandaigua Country Club.
Nolan's dinner menu has a wonderful selection of seafood options. Among them, a filet of North Atlantic salmon, lobster tails, and fish and chips. There are also broiled jumbo sea scallops topped with spinach.
Nolan's has a lot more than just seafood. In fact, it has a full steakhouse program: everything from a filet mignon to a pork chop to something Nolan's calls a steakhouse kabob, which features tenderloin, marble potatoes and cremini mushrooms—all grilled on a skewer.
The restaurant has a great wine program, with a bottle perfect for every budget. They also feature an array of beer options, both on tap and bottled. If you want to compliment the chef, you can buy a round of drinks for the kitchen to enjoy—only $12!
