Restaurants in Utica

“My new favorite 🍔 place… fries great too!”

“Amazing, simple delicious coffee!!”

“I cannot say enough good things about Joey’s @ 307. From having dinner there for the first time about a year ago, to falling in love with their food and having them cater my wedding, everything they do is amazing. Truly the best chicken parm and chicken marsala I have ever had. They made the entire process easy and stress free (which if you’ve ever planned a wedding you know does not happen often!!). They made sure my husband and I had our own food first to make sure we ate, and made us out own to go meal at the end of the night. Every person I spoke with there was incredibly nice, helpful, and funny! Matt and Kathy helped make our wedding day perfect! Thank you guys again ?”

“Love Zeina's Cafe! Awesome owners...food is out of this world delicious!”

“Food was delicious, excellent service with a smile 🙂! Go there, you'll be glad you did!!!”

“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!”

“Amazing food. Especially loved the Philly burger and the lamb biriyani. We also enjoyed beef biriyani, crispy chicken sandwich. Sandwiches and burger came with crispy fries. Very flavorful food. Service was great too. Highly recommend!”

“AMAZING. cappuccino - 10 Cannoli - 10 Truly outstanding.”

“I got the best pizza! My neighbor got gluten free, extra cheese garlic and she said it was the best! My mom and I got dairy free cheese and it was the best! The kids said that it was the best also! Our favorite pizza place!”

“Hidden gem! Delicious food & great service. Choices are endless, they work around your eating restrictions that you may have and provide you with suggestions. Owner is friendly and wants you to feel welcome which is very appreciating. Will be back and recommend it to everyone!”

“Subs are great, fresh, and great portions. Excellent customer service! I just found my new lunch spot 😊”

“I ordered lamb fahsa, a hearty lamb stew, and it was delicious, deeply flavorful but not spicy. The young man running the restaurant was delightful. We will definitely be back.”

“Great breakfast spot! Their menu is extensive and has something for everyone.”

“Ramon made our cakes for table centerpieces for our wedding! Each one was beautifully decorated and tasted amazing! Jean took care of making sure each cake was set up perfectly. I can't thank them enough.”

“0 stars! I stopped in and I swear there was a teenage girl hanging out with a bunch guys there, she remained there with who I was told is the head chef. It's absolutely disgusting to see such a young kid surrounded by men who are in their 30s and some looked older than that. I haven't gone back since and I never will.”

“I order from St Louis missouri. the wakes the hell up coffee is the best. I love the pistachio and the cannoli I can't get anything even close to it here in Missouri. well worth ordering from Utica! so rich and flavorful. love you guys”

“Big portions of good food at great prices. Also great service!”

“Parking: Parking on main store front street or side streets available

Kid-friendliness: I wouldn't throw a kids party here, but is more then exceptable for eating in.

Wheelchair accessibility: No”

“prova i cannoli ✝️👸🏿 -Nonny”

“We made a last minute reservation because we had to change venues for a picky eater. We were celebrating my MIL's birthday. She had the ribeye and loved it. That's all that really mattered. We also ordered the burger, a pizza, chicken francaise and Tuscan chicken. Everything was delicious. We were early so the place wasn't too busy and the service was top notch! The waitress surprised us with a dish of ice cream with a sparkler in it for the birthday girl. It was so awesome! Great service!”

“The food, the Staff and management were all great! I highly recommend! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”

“A classic example of don't judge a book by its cover! The unassuming exterior in a strip mall would lead you to expect a smallish pizza joint. This is anything but! We had a delicious lunch with extremely good 'home made' food. The service was personal and exemplary. Our meals were well worth the cost! I'll be back.”

“Love the service, the staff, the food, the view!”

“Absolutely recommend tailor and the cook to anyone awesome staff drinks food amazing We will definitely be back ❤️❤️🍷🍷”

“Asked if I'd recommend. Well... I didn't want to hit no because maybe it was just an off day with the chef. Everybody has one. Husband enjoyed his Chicken Parmesan, Utica Greens were good (1st time eating them). My Chicken Salvatore was dry and hard. Not enough sauce to even try to soften it up to make the dish enjoyable. Way overcooked. I guess the green beans and mashed potatoes were good. Might go back to see if it was just a fluke. Might not.. who knows.”

“If your feeling sad / depressed

-Order the Philly cheese steak and a nice small pizza with chicken as a topping

Thank me later!

Fuggedabouit”

“food was I incredible! service was second to none. drink was fruity and excellent. will be going back.

“We so enjoyed our anniversary dinner with Nostro! Cocktails & appetizers were lovely, we were impressed with the White Truffle Garlic Bread (a unique and somewhat delicate spin on a familiar classic ) The pace of the meal was balanced, great service. Handmade pasta for our entrees was absolutely divine, I'll be thinking about the Sweetcorn & Saffron Ravioli for years to come. This restaurant is a true gem of Utica, we will be returning again for dinner very soon!”

“I have been here twice now and loved everything both times. They get orders out incredibly fast while still maintaining great flavor. I loved that they had shumai one of my favorite dim sum dishes. Their lo mein and crab rangoons are also fantastic. My favorite was the wonton soup they give so many wontons which are absolutely delicious. And the service is great as well!”

“Great food, good man running the place. He gets creative with his burgers and they are always worth the adventure.”

“The Tram is filled with amazingness altogether. if that’s even a word. Whether it be supporting artists of all kinds, out of their passion for art. Or their amazing food and drinks! (best hot chocolate ever, by the way). And kind and hardworking staff! They have created a warm, welcoming, and supportive environment for all. Utica is beyond lucky to have a business like them around!!”

“What a dope space this is! 🛸 The atmosphere is unlike anything else in our area. If you are looking for good vibes, look no further! With an innovation cocktail menu and a relaxing yet fun and energetic environment, this is the place for you! Go check out space and order a few drinks or 5!”

“The best Filet steak sandwich around!!!! Also love their Chicken Daniele!”

“Food is Great! Atmosphere Great! Gluten free options Great!”

“I have eaten their food for years! Always a worthy stop. The best Tomato Pie.”

“We’ve had cookies from Wicked Sweets for holidays but never really tried anything else. I have some restrictions on what I can eat and sugar unfortunately isn’t on the list. Finding a place that offers sugar free is incredibly hard, and when you do find it - it usually is extremely costly and honestly doesn’t taste that great. When my husband’s birthday was coming up I looked around for a place that offered flavors he likes and decided to order from here. I looked over the menu and noticed she offered a couple sugar free flavors! I was excited and ordered right away. When I picked up I expected the price to be high and it was extremely affordable. My husband hasn’t stopped raving about his cake and I couldn’t believe how good the sugar free was. I will definitely be ordering again! My only complaint is she didn’t offer a chocolate cake option, but I managed with vanilla lol. She definitely has gained new regulars in our family! My husband got a boozy cake, and I had gotten a cannoli cake. Highly recommend both!”

“Everything we got was delicious and the prices are amazing!”

“Their Chicken Gyros and rice are delicious!”

“10/10 awesome place! Definitely recommended!”

“My mom, my sister, my brother, his wife and daughter and my wife and I were looking for a good place for dinner last night and I suggested Gerber's. The last time that my wife and I had been there was pre-pandemic, so it had been awhile. We had a great dinner and incredible service from Joe. Mark, the owner, was gracious and welcoming and his food was excellent. It was a relaxing evening spent in this quaint, local landmark. Great atmosphere and excellent beer selection. We'll be back. Thanks Mark. You continue to do a wonderful job!”

“Ordered a dozen pasteles and they where delicious definitely would recommend.”

“The pizza, fries, and garlic bread were all delicious. The staff was very friendly and the overall feel was very comfortable with everyone in a good mood. On top of all that the prices were good as you get alot of food for your money, I'll have leftovers for a while. Thanks again!”

“Love This Bar !!!!”

“Great little place for breakfast! I had a full plate of a no-carb meal, and had to take the rest to go. This is a nice place with friendly people, enjoy your meal here!”

“The pizza here is delicious and the customer service is amazing. Thank you for making my son’s day. Will definitely come back again.”

“Perfect evening. Friendly staff.”

“Great little breakfast joint right down off the arterial. Super friendly, and definitely a local favorite. Sit at the counter and talk to Joe while he cooks and you won’t be disappointed.

“Went in for a quick bite asked for anice fresh chicken empanada. The man at the counter said no problem and then threw two in the oven for me and i was on my way in a couple minutes. Great place!”

“An enjoyable and convenient place to lunch while visiting the Munson Museum in Utica, NY. The food and service are excellent. However, there is considerable museum construction going on adjacent to the outdoor dining area, so for the time being (summer of 2024) it's better to eat inside.”

“Came to watch a band (Uncle Charlie & the Meatballs) & get some food. There was no table service (mentioned at the door). Band & steak sandwich was great. As the band started the food line went out the door. Once the band started you had to wait in line at the register to get a drink. My party didn't appreciate that. Maybe they were short staffed but it seems like their system. Glad I got my food early. Suggestion-get more registers. Good acoustics, what appeared to be acoustic panels installed throughout. I will definitely come back, just be warned.”

“Amazing food! Very friendly! Highly recommend!”

“Food is excellent service is great only thing I don't like not much to choose for drinks”

“My kids & I were there for lunch today. The food was great.”

“Chance is a great guy! Trying to make a go of it! The food is excellent! Portions are good! The brisket, cornbread & salt potatoes were enough! Will definitely go back!!”

“I ordered lamb fahsa, a hearty lamb stew, and it was delicious, deeply flavorful but not spicy. The young man running the restaurant was delightful. We will definitely be back.”

“Excellent sandwiches and other menu selections. Great atmosphere to meet up with friends. Cons: Food technicians are wearing disposable gloves but fail to change them between customers. Also they are touching their faces, noses one was sniffling like she had a bad cold but blamed it on allergies. And they are not wearing masks while talking not only to customers which is normal but with each other and in this day of RSV FLU SEASON more care needs to be taken when prepping food.”

“Food was good for me. Service was slow but waitresses were doing a good job keeping everyone informed and plenty to drink. Atmosphere is good just like others just seemed a little more low key than most.

Parking: Parking close is decent. It's shared with other stores thus parking is everywhere. There is enough parking for 2 or 3 CDL truck and trailers also”
