First visit to the Syracuse location. Oh my, it's even better than what I remember. We shared the halibut bites. He had a filet, which was perfect! I had the lamb meatballs which are (still ) heavenly. Excellent waitstaff led by Ashley, who was delightful and very attentive.

The food is absolutely delicious! Amazing menu! Great place for a romantic dinner, or a visit to the bar for some drinks and appetizers. It's definitely a good idea to make a reservation, although I've been able to get in without one occasionally. The atmosphere is fun in the service is excellent. Great drink selection also!

Dinner at Kelly Jae's is always a great decision. Their food is stellar, and the bar knows how to make a very good cocktail too.Menu is always rotating, which is fun and impressive that their consistent quality of dish and tastiness never wavers.Also, the service is always solid. Everyone is very friendly.It can sometimes be tough to get a dinner reservation for the weekend in the summer, but they do their best to accommodate.Lively atmosphere, but never over the top.

This place is great! If you like loud 80s hip hop, you will love this place. The atmosphere is absolutely the best. You walk in on the main level through anthropology whiskey bar. The restaurant is downstairs from the bar (kind of like an old-time speakeasy). The food is delicious. You've got to try the ramen, It's the best I've had. Make a point to go at least one time to see the robot that serves your food.

I love this place! The menu always has a wide variety of things to chose from. I could eat here every day and never get tired of it. The golden beet salad is amazing and the pork loin is also a go to. The atmosphere is great although it can get a bit loud when it's full. They are also open for lunch on Wednesday Thursday and Friday in the summer so I can get a healthy lunch in this town!So glad they are here!!!!

Loved Kelly Jae's, we will go back. A varied menu as well as delicious. Quite a little gem for such a burger and fries place.

I'm so happy to have this place in syracuse! It's a much needed addition to our home town.Fantastic food, good service, great vibe!For an appetizer - try the fish bites - they melt in your mouth!!!The dates are pretty good but I didn't love them.For dinner, the salmon was phenomenal! I also LOVE the Bibimbap - it is amazing. Kelly's house made kimchi is one of a kind. Prices for dinner are spendy for Syracuse. We spent around $100 per person and that included a drink or two, sharing a couple appetizers dinner, and sharing a dessert.Free street parking outside.I highly recommend this place when you come to northern Indiana, you've got to have lunch for dinner here.

My S/O made reservations for my birthday as we had just driven in from DC and I couldn't have had a more stellar experience. Table by the window? Check. Perfect martini? Check. The food was phenomenal, everything had wonderful, balanced flavor and the large plate portions were generous. Highly recommend the asparagus salad and the wasabi pea-encrusted salmon if it's available on the menu, and the fries were perfect although the portion was small.Kelly Jae's punches well above their weight and finally means we don't have to settle for "lake food" when visiting the lake!
