“I want to express my sincere appreciation to Katie who is a bartender and waiter. My sister has come to Syracuse to see me several times and we frequently visit your restaurant when she is here.

She is an assess to your restaurant. Thank you so much. You guys are doing it right!“

“Went to Joey's for the first time last night. I cannot say enough about how wonderful our experience was. From the fresh bread with yummy garlic butter to delicious salads and fabulous entrees. I ordered Shrimp Francaise and it was the best food I have ever eaten. I brought Tiramisu home for desert. Again, mouth watering, so so delicious. My friends had eggplant Parmesan, clams, salmon, chicken french, and all raved about their entrees. But the other best part was the host Chris and our wonderful server Nancy. She is by far the best server ever. She made our evening fun while providing excellent service. Totally in tuned with our table and always answering our questions with knowledge and a wonderful attitude. The ambiance was great. Nice little tables for two in corners and just the right atmosphere for everyone.“

Currently eating my leftovers for dinner and she wrote the sweetest happy birthday note on the box, sent the wonderful experience home with me. 10/10“

“Went to Nick’s on Thompson Rd. last night (always look forward to going there) and had a sausage, pepper and onion pie and a few wings. Great food, great owners, a MUST visit for all. (Open weekdays only)“

“Went to this restaurant on our drive up to Canada as we were staying in Syracuse for the night.

I called ahead (on the same day) to make a reservation, which is recommended. They were full by the time we got there. We were seated quickly, but waited a while for service. It seemed like there were only 2 servers that night, and they were both running back and forth from the host position to grabbing drinks to getting the food out.

I ordered the steak frites. It was good, but a bit salty for my tasting. The fries had a heavy coating of Parmesan cheese which made it too salty.

The atmosphere and vibe is nice and romantic. However in the winter it does get cold as it’s an older building and when people enter/exit the restaurant a draft gets let in.

Overall, it was an okay experience. I’d come back in the summer just to see if things are different.“

“Paladino’s never disappoints! Best pizza around! It is always delivered hot and fresh. We will always support this business .“

“We dined 1/11/2026 at Twin Trees 3. We chose 2 dinners: baked salmon and chicken Francois. The meals were excellent in this very clean inviting restaurant. Above anything was our server, Nicky. She was friendly, attentive and very efficient. Today, at home, when I unwrapped our generous left-over servings I found that items were wrapped securely and labeled much to my surprise. Thank you Nicky! We will see you again.“

“One of the best meals we have out to eat in a while! Growing up, we were regulars in Norwich. It was great to have today’s experience while we were in the Chittenango area.“

“We hired Karen’s Catering of Syracuse for our wedding reception with 115 guests. From the moment I spoke with Andrea, I knew that she was a high quality, experienced caterer. We had so many options to create the dinner of our dreams and it was executed perfectly. I couldn’t be happier with this company.“

“A big shoutout to Mario for ensuring our 10 pizzas were delivered promptly to the Upstate Golisano Children's Hospital today. We were thrilled to give back to the amazing staff and current patients at the Cancer Center for everything they've done for our little guy. Our Matthew got to ring the bell today, making it a truly special celebration! The staff saw the pizza and immediately said, "OHHH, good, it's from Mario's!" Thank you so much for your incredible support and kindness.“
