“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!“

“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!!“

“I live in NC these days but whenever I’m here a dinner at The Willows is mandatory. Not only is the food exceptional but the staff is great.“

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

“My husband and I both had the Chilean Sea Bass which was superb, although pricey. The Asian shrimp salad was fantastic that I had and my husband really liked the lobster bisque as well. Our waiter, Zack, never failed to show up at the appropriate times we needed him and gave us great service. Would highly recommend!“

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

“Friendly staff and awesome food. Luv this place.“

“Excellent Excellent Excellent! Prices, quality, service, atmosphere A++ i will be finding another show at the Stanley to attend just to come back and eat again. Our server Alison, fantastic!“

“Love this place. I Never had a bad meal. The staff are pleasant. I go on my 30 minute lunch. I have time to eat and drive back to work. Today I had a tuna sandwich and a bowl of Homemade New England Clam Chowder. The tuna was white albacore (amazing) and the soup was delish. Prices are reasonable. I really didn't want to write this review as I am now afraid they will get busier and I will have to call my orders in but it is well deserved.“

“Very good food. My gf and I just started going here. It's our 2nd time. The breakfast is amazing. And very good priced. $12 for a 2 eggs, meat, hasbrowns or home fries and toast. Can't beat that. Best prices in the area. Can deff bring the family there and not empty the pocket like other diners in the area.

Girlfriend is very picky about her food especially her eggs. They've come out perfect over medium eggs both times. Great staff, service is great and very friendly people. Even the cook and dishwasher always have a smile on their faces and actually pay attention to the customers.

9/10/24 UPDATE. Lunch did not disappoint either. Gf got a Rachel (Turkey and Cole Slaw Ruben...by special request) (also at no additional cost and was able to change the rye bread to italian) amazing. And for $11.33 served with a pretty big serving of fries. I got a 1/3lb Daves Burger also amazing. $11.00. I added bacon and cheese for a $13.95 total. With sodas my bill was just under $33. Very affordable for 2 people to eat. Will deff keep coming back.“

“First time here, celebrating an anniversary. Ashley made sure our table was especially lovely with rose petals and a candle. She was delightful and attentive. The lamb and the Chicken Francaise were excellent. The flourless chocolate cake (shared) was the perfect ending.“

“I'm not from the area, but was lucky to discover this while in town. Great time, great idea. Wish I was around more often. Had soo much fun!“

“If you have never been to Castlewood Cafe, now is the time! With higher prices and decreasing quality and every popular chain, Castlewood continues to offer their large menu, with same quality products! They have not changed that in this economy! My family chooses Castlewood over all the restaurants in this area! What’s more, the friendly smiles and excellent waiting staff! I strongly recommend this small mom and pop diner that has a menu to satisfy everyone, even the pickiest of eaters!“

“Haven't been to a Denny's in a long time. They've remodeled since the last time I was here. Quiet. Clean. The food was spot on. I love when it's exactly what I'm craving. Runny eggs with toast and bacon. If those eggs aren't just right, it can be a let down. But it wasn't.“

“Good was great, Hot, Fresh..“

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

“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“

“Had a nice meal with my daughter today. Our server, Jason R was fantastic. Start to finish went above and beyond for us. The food was very good as well. Thank you!“
