New American Restaurants near Marcy, NY

“We have eaten in twice, and done takeout once, recently, and all three experiences were excellent. Our waitress/ cook was welcoming and attentive. Pizza was cooked perfectly, with ample toppings. We tried different flavors of wings each time, and the favorites were Everything, Sweet n’ Spicy, and Honey Barbecue. Highly recommend! We will be back soon!“

“I brought my family to Rooster’s last weekend and we had an incredible experience. The smash burgers are tasty, but the best part about the place is the owner and his staff. They took the time to make sure our kids had what they needed to be comfortable and happy. Lots of smiles and good conversations, we will definitely be going back here on future Utica visits!!!“

“In sporting vernacular: grand slam, eagle, bullseye!! The planning for my 50th birthday party started with Motus months prior. The details of the menu, signature cocktail, embellishments and affordable pricing were as smooth as silk. The follow up meetings were effective and brief. Every detail was accommodated in style and with class. When Alicia said not to worry, they will handle everything, I left it in their capable hands and didn’t give it another thought. The event of about 30 family and dear friends was an astounding and resounding success. One word: Delicious! The presentation was wonderful. The service was timely, accurate, professional, and nearly invisible throughout the evening. Everyone is still raving about the menu variety, service, and the General sumptuousness of the event. This was the best choice. Alicia, you are wonderful!! We are still on cloud 9. This one review represents 28 rave accolades and approvals. Job well done!“

“It has been my great pleasure to eat and drink and socialize at Nola’s for thirteen years.

The faces are always friendly and the offerings always delicious! I’ve seen the interior redecorated one or two times, indulged in takeout drinks during COVID, had strangers at the bar buy my dinner twice, and so much more. Nola’s and the people who run it are a huge blessing to the community!

After all that time, at long last I feel compelled to exalt the Nola’s experience and tell anyone who will listen about a new offering on the Spring 2026 menu:

The Nashville Hot Chicken

A gorgeous pair of beautifully breaded cutlets in a creamy dill blue cheese sauce that sets off the hot sauce and complements the accompanying stack of red cabbage slaw and sweet & sour pickles. It is a festival of flavors and textures any way you bite it.
It’s been on the menu for less than two weeks and I’ve come up with excuses to go eat it three times so far (soon to be four thank goodness!)

So, hustle on over and order that chicken!!!“

“We had my grandmothers funeral service this past Monday and Michael T’s was able to open up afterwards for our reception. The food was great. The server was amazing. The owner is awesome. They also catered my wedding 9 years ago. Really great place. I recommend them to everyone!“

“Great food and cold drinks and good people to hang with!“

“Great food and excellent rotating beer selection. Always friendly to both new and old customers.“

“My husband took me here for my birthday, and it was the first time for both of us. The food was amazing, our waiter was consistent with checking on us and making sure we were happy and our glasses were always full (I wish I remembered his name). We usually take the drive out to cheesecake factory for date nights & special occasions but I think its safe to say that we found our new favorite place to eat☺️“

“Good food, especially the Riggies. Service is always great. Nice place for a night cap or playing games with friends!“

“The most absolute amazing salad you can design. Trust me when I say put some hot purple rice in the bottom of the bowl and start building the rest! Fresh grated ginger is a game changer. Don't forget all the free extras by the cash register you can add on. In New Hartford the manager is Austin and he is absolutely incredible! He runs a wonderful establishment and is constantly helping his workers out. My friend and I go here every 3 weeks and have our favorite table we always sit at. Austin even remembers all my toppings all the way to the well done steak. Incredible service and atmosphere.“

“The food was amazing and the staff were quick and helpful. love the outside dining“
