Sneak Peek Inside New Restaurant Opening in Central New York

Step inside the newest restaurant in Central New York.

The Forest Grill at Point Place Casino in Bridgeport officially opens on November 19, bringing a rustic, farm-to-fork vibe that focuses on hearty comfort food, creative drinks, and a warm, welcoming atmosphere.

The menu is packed with standout dishes, from Parker House Rolls and Campfire Spinach Artichoke Dip to Maple Miso Salmon, Braised Short Rib, and New York Strip and Ribeye Steaks.

And don’t skip dessert—think Brookies, fresh-baked Peach and Blueberry Pie, and craft ice cream.

The drinks are just as creative, with cocktails featuring herbal smoke, foraged fruits, and local Central New York beers.

Syracuse Native Running the Kitchen

Running the kitchen is Syracuse native Josh White, a SUNY Cobleskill grad with years of experience at local favorites like LM Social and Onondaga Country Club.
