This historic building was constructed in 1818, and prospered as a tavern with the Erie Canal (and later the State Barge Canal) only a few feet away.The expanded patio serves a lighter menu in the warmer months, as the recreational boats cruise the canal nearby.Richardson’s used to feature a set-price menu, but now offers a la carte lunch and dinner.Using the same co-chef system he employed at Rooney’s, Johan Mueller has brought new life to this venerable restaurant.

Though the menu did not have any vegetarian options for appetisers, the chef made us two custom orders- one a stuffed portabello mushroom, the other a stuffed red capsicum (bell pepper). Both were tasty, but I liked the mushroom more. Inside the red pepper was a berry of some type. I don't remember the berry but it was slightly chewy and hard but was not sweet. Both had some cheese and a nice light sauce on them. The main course was also very good. I had potato gnocchi (which was originally a side dish to a chicken meal, but was specially made for me as a main dish), and hubby had the stuffed homemade ravioli. As I pictured it, gnocchi was piled high with tomato sauce. Though the gnocchi was good, I could not finish the whole thing for two reasons, one I got full, and two it was monotonous, so I boxed the remainder and had it for a full lunch the next day. Hubby's ravioli was also very tasty, but there were only five pieces I believe. Each piece was about four or five inches long and up to 2 inches at it's widest. They were not thick, but the filling was very filling. It had a sauce on it, but I can't remember it. More of my thoughts at: sappardready.blogspot.com/2008/05/richardsons-canal-house.html
