“Friendly staff, great atmosphere and the food is amazing“

“Decent lunch at a reasonable price.

My wife and I came in for lunch and thought it was good. I had their soul and sandwich lunch meal which was a good value.

I opted for their French Onion soup and it was delicious. Super cheesy and the broth was excellent as well. Their chicken tenders were good and their house honey mustard was a nice dipping sauce.

Our server was attentive and helpful.

Good lunch spot, although nothing spectacular. Enjoyed it and would go again.“

“We chose this restaurant to celebrate after our courthouse wedding, and it honestly couldn’t have been more perfect. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere felt special welcoming, and just the right place to soak in such an important day. The staff went above and beyond to make us feel celebrated without being over the top. Everyone was kind, attentive, and genuinely happy for us, which made the experience even more meaningful. The food was incredible as always. It felt like the perfect way to mark the start of our new chapter together. This will always be a special place for us. We come here for trivia and have built great relationships with the staff. We’re so grateful we chose to celebrate here and will definitely be back for anniversaries to come.

“Great atmosphere. Great food. Great prices. A once of week kind of spot.“

“The atmosphere was cozy but could see this place being packed and crowded when it's not middle of winter and during school break (we visited early January) The cocktails where great and the bar staff knew their spirits. We were lucky to sit across from the food prep area which gave us the opportunity to watch and talk with Chef David. His menu is out of this world . The small Plate creations were absolutely phenomenal. You MUST try the tartare. We will def visit again next time we are in SYR and hope to sit in the same spot to talk with David.“

“Best place to have a party in event room. Maria is the best to work with. Responded very quickly to inquire of room for my father’s birthday celebration. Lots of choices for food and the pizza oven has a variety of tasty pizzas to choose from. Kim DeStefano was the best bartender, quick, efficient and exceptionally friendly. The event room was everything I wanted & could have imagined to celebrate my dad’s 80th. Highly recommend with working with Marie for any parties in the future. Thank you Maxwells for awesome food and venue. Cheers !!“

“We love ECK! The food is full of flavor and creativity, the cocktails ( and mocktails ) are always unique.. plus that rooftop!? So cozy and effortlessly fun — with the best views and chill vibes. Whether we’re working with them on shoots or just grabbing dinner, it’s always a great experience. Shoutout to Michele, Nora, Sasha, and their amazing team... they make every visit feel special😍✨“

“We loved coming here and getting the dollar oysters. We forgot to make a reservation on a Tuesday and assumed we would be fine but that was a mistake. It gets super busy and I would always recommend a reservation. For some reason they were not seating people in the back and we asked if there was any chance they had a free table and they put us outside in this beautiful court yard which for some reason they were not seating people.“

“loved the upscale atmosphere! I was there for a surprise birthday party .we had hors d'oeuvres.... delicious!!“
