50 Best American Restaurants near Jamesville

“First time dining here, it was a fairly busy Saturday night. The atmosphere is really unique with the old schoolhouse vibe! Very cool but it did get pretty loud as the evening progressed. The food is excellent, the service is average. The food is definitely worth another trip so we will try again! 4 stars…“

“We walked in on Mothers Day at 6:45. You could tell the place had been swamped all day and everyone was still scrambling with customers and cleaning up. Our server was AWESOME - great and speedy service and he didn’t even write anything down. Food and drinks were great :)“

“Love this restaurant my favorite in the syracuse area“

“Celebrated my daughters bridal shower today at Phoebe’s! I couldn’t have picked a better venue. Everything was perfect from the atmosphere to the food to the staff. Perfect day!! Thank you to all the staff for your help today.“

“Best place in Syracuse!! Food is incredible!! One of plates! So so so good“

“This is a fun spot downtown. Food is good and every Monday night is Dead night!“

“Prices are great and the portions are…… too big! Just ask for a box. You won’t be disappointed the next day. Can’t wait to go back!“

“Friendly staff. Great food. It’s worth the price. Highly recommended for anyone.“

“What an awesome venue for our annual clambake!!!! Never going anywhere else! Great staff and ownership!!! 10/10“

“The food is cooked perfectly and has that old school small breakfast/lunch diner feeling. I am in there almost every day of the work week. Great breakfast sandwiches and the Fish sandwich on Fridays is delicious and big“

“So delicious. I love the riggies and the turkey cranberry panini. I’d order DoorDash from them all the time if they’d make it so there wasn’t a delivery fee for DashPass members. I’m sure a lot more people would too! But it doubles the price of the order so I can’t justify it. So for now I’ll just enjoy the great food when I can stop by in person!“

“This is my second time coming to Craftsman and I can’t wait for number three. Last time I was with my father who doesn’t drink but we came in on a whim and sat at the bar for dinner. We had burgers, they were good, and I was very happy with the draft beer selection. Now I’m back, staying at the Craftsman Inn next door again but with a new group. Myself, my wife, my 2 year old, and 2 month old came in for dinner on a Saturday night. We were seated a few minutes earlier than our reservation and immediately greeted by our server. We fired a kids pizza for my big guy and it was out within 5 minutes and it was absolutely delicious. Everyone was so nice and helpful, they gave my big guy crayons which was a huge hit. The wife had the salmon, I ordered the steak flight, we shared a hot honey and pepperoni pizza while waiting for our main course. We’re from Long Island, we eat a lot of pizza, this thing was top notch. Main courses came, we were both extremely happy with our choices. The steak flight comes with 2 sides and I chose Brussel sprouts and the fingerling potatoes. The sprouts were unreal, the potatoes were good but I’d probably select something else next time. No complaints, just a preference. Drinks were and always are top notch, very happy!!!! Just wish it wasn’t 5 hours from home.“

“Absolutely love this place!!! Great food!!!“

“Excellent food. Full plates. Good service.“

“We were in Syracuse from WNY for a concert. Thoroughly enjoyed our experience at 317! Our meals were outstanding (piri piri chicken, filet and tiramisu for dessert), service was great (thanks Donna & Joel) and we loved the vibe here. Will definitely visit again.“

“We had an issue recently with the take out service at Tullys in Fairmount which was a rare occurrence. The food is always consistent and service prompt. I felt it was important to share my experience with management as I knew it was not typical of this location. I was called by Allen the manager who had been a friendly face for years. He was very apologetic of the situation and appreciative of my feedback, he wanted to make it right and advised me to ask for him when we decided to dine in again. We went on a typical busy Friday night. We’ were greeted and almost immediately sat. Before our meals touched the table he came over to advise me that one of our meals was on him as a courtesy. Allen is an important part of the Tullys family and the Fairmount location. He is always friendly and cares that his customers leave satisfied. The food was nothing less than delicious, tenders and fries came out cooked perfectly and within 10 minutes of ordering. Great Job Allen and Fairmount Tullys team!“

“Full full full full full full“

“I’ve come three times and the food has been amazing - even better is the entertainment by Joe Zoe. we stumbled upon him the first time by luck, and when we found out he was playing here again we booked a table for eight. great atmosphere and amazing entertainment!!!“

“Kevin and Chris are great guys who also make excellent food. Pizza slices are huge with lots of toppings, and a great crust. Breaded wings were also huge, well seasoned and cooked to perfection! Highly recommend!“

“First time here..Our waitress was great the food was amazing .We ordered two of the dips( the greens and the Brie dip) We also ordered the Ribeye special , chicken n waffles, and the Seared Ahi Tuna. The food was delicious.“

“My family and I had such an amazing experience last night at The Preserve. The service was EXCEPTIONAL, atmosphere was great, and the food was delicious.I am extremely grateful for the last minute accommodations(party of 20).We truly enjoyed our night, thank you for such a wonderful experience. Special thanks to Ms.K my granddaughter loved her❤️“

“New menu is awesome! A ton of great options for everyone and very reasonable price point. I love a deal! Staff is always quick and attentive. Brunch is the best on the East Side. Joe, Randy and Laura are crushing it!!“

“Great food, friendly service, soothing atmosphere. Will definitely return.“

“Love Varsity Pizza! I remember when I was younger going to SU games but swinging by Varsity’s for a slice before the game.“

“Very nice ppl will be bck again“

“ordered from here a couple times since they opened and tried a few different things on the menu and always have a pleasant experience! It's nut allergy friendly which you don't always get with vegan cheese. Sometimes wish they were open more than a few days a week?“

“This place is a hidden gem in the center of Syracuse NY. The sauce for the mussels was extraordinary and well thought out! The glaze on the salmon was exquisite. The salmon was cooked ro perfection.

The atmosphere was quiet as it was a Wednesday. But very open and relaxing!

The service was interesting. Isabella was my waitress. A young college student who just finished at a local community college and said she was considering continuing her education in business finance. I see nothing but success in this young girls future! She is professional, and appears to have a solid work ethic as well!

If you are a local, give this place a try. And if you are traveling from out of town and staying in the hotel, you have a really good place to eat right downstairs!

All the best Salt City Eatery and Isabella!!!“

“What a find in the Double Tree Hotel in East Syracuse, NY! We stopped for the night in East Syracuse on our way to Boston. We arrived late into the city and were looking for a place for a late-night meal. We lucked out with the find of the Season Tavern inside the Double Tree Hotel.Our first choice was the Salt City Smashed Burger. The burger arrived large with lettuce, tomato, onion, and cheese on a Brioche Bun/Roll with fries. The burger was great and the presentation was very good.Our second choice was the Street-Style Fish Tacos. This treat arrived with Red Snapper, Napp slaw, Pico De Gallo, Cotija cheese, Chipotle Aioli, lime, and Cilantro. All of this was served on our choice of either flour or corn tortillas. We picked the flour tortillas. We had a choice of either a salad or chips as a side. We went with the salad. Just like the burger the tacos were great and the presentation was very good. We enjoyed our meals with glasses of wine which were appropriately priced.Once again, I wish Google would allow ½ stars. The Season Tavern is a solid 4 ½ stars. This was great bar food at a reasonable price. The service was over the top; thank you, Ms Kim! We don't travel this way much, but if we do, we will make sure we stop and dine at the Season Tavern. Enjoy!“

“We went to Logan's twice in the last couple if weeks. The food there is great. Despite the fact that the restaurant is short on staff, the staff they do have is phenomenal and always going an extra mile to accommodate their customers. We had a great brunch in Sunday despite a very long wait. Everyone enjoyed their food and our waitress was great! We will return.“

“Always consistent great food and atmosphere. Burgers and other sandwiches are amazing!!“

“It was our first visit and my sister and I were there for a nice pre-theater dinner. We had a great experience! I love the concept of a pre-theater, themed menu. Although the choices were limited, the food was great. I had the best ever Short Rib dinner. Portion could have been a bit larger considering the $28 price. But the meat was tender and flavorful. Our server was wonderful and it was just a fun atmosphere.“

“Great place to eat in the late summer and fall . The view of the trees turning colors from the outside dining on the deck is BEAUTIFUL ! The food is okay , service not that good , but it’s worth it for the view alone . You get an amazing view overlooking the trees and the lake below from the deck . We enjoyed a Beautiful day there , and we will go back again in the fall and enjoy the deck on a sunny , warm , Fall Day for lunch and drinks .“

“Found this little gem while in Syracuse for a concert. We walked in and it was packed (good sign). It took a little bit to get served but it was slammed. I got the sausage gravy biscuit bowl, delicious! Very friendly staff, the owner was on the grill pumping out orders. We had a great experience and would definitely go back.“

“Unexpected delight @yorkcny last night 😍

I was immediately charmed by the ambience– black shiny brick, big mirrors, and lots of green plants surrounded attractive seating– and hoped the food would measure up.

The pork chop was well-cooked and flavorful but even more delicious was the egg and fried rice that surrounded it. The presentation was lovely (see little flower!!!)

The bone marrow appetizer was delicious, assuming you enjoy Gorgonzola (I do)

The pasta’s size was shockingly generous, and it was creamy and flavorful. The Calabrian peppers definitely gave it a nice kick.

The Snicker’s cookie topped with ice cream was exactly what I wanted– straight-forward, simple, and nostalgic.

As for the drinks, I wasn’t drinking tonight but my friend ordered the [Not Your Mama’s] Amaretto Sour which featured an overproof rum and was absolutely insanely delicious. Would highly recommend.

Will be returning likely this summer to grab a table in the lovely outdoor section!“

“Great place for a quick bite to eat! Friendly staff, warm atmosphere, and the food's pretty damn good for the price! The breakfast sandwich was killer, I've also had the chicken cutlet sub which came with chips.. I would have definitely upgraded the 250 for the fries but oh well!“

“Great atmosphere with amazing dishes.“

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

“In the eons I've been coming to this joint, I recommend you bring patience with the door, cash in pocket, and appetite for some of the Best food in Syracuse!“

“I disagree 100 percent that the riggies here taste better than Utica. They simply don’t. The portion size was great, but the chicken was so cut way too small. The sauce just didn’t hit my taste buds the same. The cheese and seasoning on the saucer for bread is just odd. Not bad, just odd. My server never checked in to ask how my food was, but he did have a lot of tables. I probably would return and order something else. Overall, it’s worth checking out. They do seem to get very busy though. Parking can be limited.“

“When to Vito’s tonight for the first time since it changed ownership. The food now is better than before. Our waiter James was the best and the food was second to none. Definitely a place to go and not only have a casual atmosphere and great food but also don’t feel rushed. Absolutely going to be back.“

“Raised By Wolves. You kn0w what it is...“

“The service was spot on! Our server was great! As expected, the food was served hot & delish. I ordered their spicy chicken sandwich with fries & a side of ranch. The portion was huge! I was meeting a relative I'd not seen in a few years so we stayed way past normal (about 3 hours) but the staff & server kept filling our refreshments the whole time (we'd already paid & tipped much earlier) so we left an additional tip & tild the server how much we appreciated her kindness!“

“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 !!“

“My dad does not like your coffee, but I like your coffee.“

“Without question the most underrated diner in the county! I have zero complaints about this place. Great food and great service!“

“The Mrs. and I stopped in today (8/8/24) for the first time and had some lunch. The special was delicious (Belly Stuffer Philly cheese steak), and only $9.50 with fries and free refills on the soda fountain! I upgraded to a beer with mine, which only costs me $10.50! The owner, Josh, was very nice, as was the bar maid. The bathrooms were spotless, too. We sat at an outside table and really enjoyed our first visit. I read some old reviews that were negative, but I can say that was not our experience. We'll definitely be back again for more. Also, I can't believe how reasonable the prices were, considering the ludicrous inflation, and I'm sure setting up shop in Fayetteville isn't a cheap venture. So... great service, great food, great prices, friendly folks; a nice little nook off the beaten path. They get an A+++ from me!!“

“Thank you to the East Syracuse location for accommodating our large group earlier this month! With several tables, plenty of food orders, kids enjoying the games, and lots of movement and drink refills—it could’ve been a challenge. The staff handled it with smiles and excellent service. Thank you for welcoming our high school trap team!“

“I love this place and I make sure to visit every time I’m in Syracuse. The portions are generous, and the place is extremely satisfying if you’re looking for a sports bar atmosphere. But for now, I’ll stick with the burgers, wings and fries. I tried the “Tipp Dip” Wednesday special recently and although the price was great, I found it very stringy and hard to chew through certain portions. Also, I’m there to watch sports, so I really hope they turn off the news. The situation in our government today is too overcharged and polarized. Many people are very angry, so politics should be avoided in a fun sports bar, IMHO. I come there to ESCAPE politics… to lose myself in live, or even pre-recorded sports action. Other than that, these guys do a fantastic job, and considering how much food they have to prepare so quickly, it’s awe inspiring to watch them in the kitchen!“
