New Restaurants in Ithaca

“Had the good fortune to visit this newer Restaurant recently, because the word of mouth was so good! I had the Noble bits which I ordered with all of the homemade house sauces. They were out of this world delicious! The chicken was perfectly cooked and the crispy crust is gluten free!Dietary restrictions: Gluten free crust on the chicken.“

“Wow, what a great stop to make. Yes, it's a guy with a smoker hooked to a pickup in a parking lot on the side of the road, but that just gives more credit to Ithaca's independent food popups.I got the Prime Rib dinner ($25) and ribs ($15). Both were fantastic. The prime rib was a huge cut and THICK. Perfect char and smoke ring. So tender you could eat it with just your fingers. Even the bits of fat were really good (winter is coming and I need the insulation). Ribs were amazing - really nice sauce slathered on them and the bones pulled out perfectly clean. The ribs were almost a pulled port once I slid the bones out. Also, a very fair portion for the price and top quality.Owner said he does Prime Rib on Friday and Saturdays and keeps the menu changing on other days. Overall a fantastic add to a city that has no longer has BBQ. "Usually" meat is ready by 11:30. Closes when out and open at least through the end of the year (I know it's cold, but I hope he stays a while)Cash only, park in a space and walk up. Very friendly owner and great smoked BBQ.“

“This is my favorite restaurant in Collegetown. The Dynamite Pita is amazing, and I’ve gotten it at least 5 times in the last week. The owner is also really nice and gave us free hummus once, and it was probably the best hummus I’ve ever had. Highly recommend!“

“Hidden Gem, wife and I loved it. Is such a beautiful layout and no idea was right off the side walk. Definitely will go again for dinner and drinks. great little live band that wasn’t too loud and got a nice little break from the long week.“
