I live out of the area now, but when I get back in town, one of my favorite spots to visit is the Whole in the Wall! I used to come regularly 20 years ago before I moved and the food is just as good now as back then.
First, it is an experience. Just two owners running the show, so expect to relax and enjoy your meal and company. Or come by yourself with a book! I always bookend my meal with the Garlic Ball and the Raspberry Brownie. I order the Garlic Ball almost before sitting down! It is pure butter and garlic bliss. Then I like the cheesy chicken bake (which I recommended to my friend) or one of seafood dishes. Sorry, we devoured the food before taking pics, but got the sidewalk view when leaving.
I love the food and the atmosphere and always leave calmer and happier than when I arrived.

Just went there a couple nights with my son and we loved the food and atmosphere. Quiet chill relaxing place. Great homemade food by the legend himself - Eliot Fiks. He’s been a cooking force for 42 years with farm to table fresh food approach.
My favorite meals are pesto pasta, the pita pocket sandwiches, mushroom soup, shrimp scampi and love love the babaganoush appetizer. My first time there was on opening night 1980 and 42 years later Eliot still rocks. Definitely always ahead of his times.
Make reservations or call to get a table for a tasty meal on a Friday or Saturday. Support local for a tasty homemade meal.

This restaurant is a hidden gem. The food is incredible and it feels like home when you’re dining there. Be sure to grab some of their pesto to go as well. You will not be disappointed!

I had the Chicken Stir Fry and my girlfriend had the famous Enchilada. Everything was so flavorful and most importantly, fresh! The wait for the food wasn’t as long as I expected; however, you can tell that the chef/owner puts a lot of care and effort into each meal! We came here wanting to take a break from all the restaurants in downtown Binghamton and it is by far, one of the best restaurants in the area! It has a cozy vibe as well that felt very homey and welcoming. I cannot get over the food though! Everything just tasted so delicious and fresh! And the owner and his wife were so kind. If you’re ever in Binghamton, this is definitely a place to stop and eat!

Very happy to see so many gluten free options on the menu. The place is very cute and has a nice ambiance. Highly recommend the mushroom soup and whole enchilada very flavorful and fresh!
