A ‘one-of-a-kind’ Finger Lakes restaurant to close; winery to take over with tasting room

by Don Cazentre, for syracuse.com

“Lodi, N.Y. — Dano’s Heuriger, which introduced Austrian “wine tavern” cuisine to America via its location in the Finger Lakes, will close at the beginning of next month.

Its spot overlooking the east side of Seneca Lake in Lodi will be taken over as a tasting room by the nearby Silver Thread Winery. That is expected to open by February 2025.

Some of Dano’s signature dishes, such as its Austrian spreads, cold salads, and charcuterie, will be available when Silver Thread opens the new tasting room at 9564 Route 414 on the lake’s eastern shore.”
