Delicious food. Only knock is the wait on to-go food was substantially longer than I was told. I'll be back to give them another chance because I know how hard it can be with small, family-run restaurants.

Food: Amazing. Ambiance: Amazing. Service: amazing. This is now one of my all time favorite spots. It’s a cute little fifties diner inside with the kindest family creating this amazing food that I literally cannot stop thinking about. Everyone was so genuine in their friendliness and did I mention I can’t stop thinking about this food? I already cannot wait to come back!!
Vegetarian options: My mom would eat here and she is vegan. There is plenty of selection for everyone.
Parking: Number of spots available in their lot is appropriate for the size of the diner.
Kid-friendliness: There is a small kids’ menu and table seating for kids.
Excellent in every way. Delicious food, polite service and nice prices.

Dan and I are riding a chunk of the Erie Canal path and decided to try Miriam's. The authentic Mediterranean food was fresh and delicious. The atmosphere was relaxing and the family owned and operated staff was superb. Thanks for a great meal!

We were visiting from Manhattan, back visiting family and I asked my cousin where I should go for Middle Eastern food and a good fish fry. Didn't expect one restaurant could have both! Hands down the best Utica fish fry I've ever had and the best grape leaves, like Sito used to make. It's a family business run by very very nice people, and the prices are excellent. I will cannot say enough good things about Mariam's!
You need to eat here! Carefully prepared and so delicious. Lamb kebabs were 10/10 and yummy rice pilaf. Good vibes and good people, family run! Awesome service and super clean restaurant. Randomly stopped coming home from the Adirondacks and so happy we did.

Truly some of the best Lebanese food you can get in the area, quaint atmosphere and great for catching up with family. Highly recommend for anyone looking for the 'next' Lebanese spot in town.

The food is fine if it's your thing, but not great to me, and the floor pattern makes you think you're eating in a bathroom. I thought my salad was fine, and my chicken was a little dry, though tasty, but all in all it was alright.

Great little place for some Mediterranean food. Got the lamb kabobs and it was juicy and not overcooked. Hummus was good too. Would come again.

We get take out from Mariam’s quite often and every single time everything tastes so fresh! My family is half Lebanese/syrian so it’s tough to come close to my family’s grape leaves and tabouleh. Mariam’s is neck n’ neck!!! My favorite is the chicken shawarma platter, tabouleh, tzatziki with pita, grape leaves and the fried kibbeh. Never disappointed with this place. We love this small family owned restaurant and you can taste the love, dedication and pride in every bite. We feel so lucky to have them so close! I recommend them to everyone!

Great cozy place, with delicious chicken shawarma to die for. The place is owned and operated by an immigrant couple, so you’ll get the friendliest service but it can be slow because of it being just the two of them. However, the chicken shawarma never disappointed. One of the best in the area. 8/10
