    This buffet was a surprise that I wasn't expecting! We stopped on the way through to the Catskills right after we got out of Syracuse. The buffet was beautiful and clean. The waitress and host were top notch. It was a little confusing at first in order to check in and pay with the kiosk, but once you did it, it made sense. There was soooo much food and reminded me of what I would put out in culinary school for presentations so it was familiar to me! I loved getting a classic creme brulee in a small bite-sized format, perfect for a diabetic like me to get a little nibble. They also had a few other lower-sugar options. A fantastic place to take the family on a special occasion, but it was a bit pricey so I wouldn't go every day!

    06.23.2024 Sunday @4:30pm Walk-in table of 3. One of the worst buffet I ever been to. Very common option. Only seafood source was shrimp, scallop and mussels. Service is great tho. The star is for the service.

    Pepper steak, pork dumplings, fried rice

    I gave 4 stars because it's a buffet, and well how much do you really expect out of buffet. They had a great selection of American, Asian, and middle eastern cuisine. I tried a little of everything and wasn't disappointed. The seafood which seems to be what draws people in wasn't up to standards. It was good quality seafood but the steamed clams had no flavor and tasted like they were just boiled in plain water, not even a pinch of salt was added. I thought the butter would help give them a little flavor but the butter they use tasted like movie theatre butter and I just didn't enjoy that. The oysters had no brine to them at all, they tasted like they were straight out of a fresh water river. I did like the shrimp cocktail and I also liked the clams with the spicy tomato sauce. The best thing of the night was the desserts, specifically the warm apple crumble. They had a great selection. For the price, I have no complaints. Our server was awesome and friendly, and made sure to keep our table clear and drinks replenished. This would be a good night out with the family since there is something for every taste bud. I'd return

    We came here for my sisters 21st birthday for the first time. There are a lot of different varieties of food to offer; a great salad bar, fantastic cuts of meat, and a delectable array of desserts. Service was attentive but not over bearing.

    Turkey, ham, roast beef, sausage, hot dog, salad.

    The food here looked incredible! The small amount of food that I got to eat WAS incredible!! I'm NOT complaining at all!! But the BEST part to me, as someone who cannot eat dairy/gluten, was the fact that they had labels above each dish telling you what the dish is AND what allergens it contains. This alone was AMAZING to me!! Everywhere should have these! The staff was very friendly, the place is HUGE, and the food was amazing! The price seemed worth it to me and literally all I could actually eat was salad and the meats. If you are someone who can't eat dairy/gluten, like myself, then I suggest you don't come here, as the options were very limited, but if you like meat, salad, and have a positive outlook on life, then by all means go enjoy it like I did!! I also suggest being first in line when they open, as they fill up rather quickly and can become super busy in the matter of minutes. Either way, I enjoyed my experience here!

    Dessert, highly recommend Mexican flan! And the lava cake! Amazing!!!

    Amazing service! Not your typical buffet, the food was good you can really tell that they really put a lot of effort in it! The presentation was fabulous! Highly recommend. Oh by the way there is a line so you might wanna come 30 mins before they open.

    Desserts!

I got a table quickly without any waiting, which was surprising with how busy the town was. The place was cozy it's not huge inside but they did have a few seating outside which was nice for a hot day like today. We all ordered sangrias, they were great(no spirits here). We all shared small plates and ordered our own pizzas. The fries and calamari were seasoned and cooked perfectly. I loved the different sauces that came with them. I would get these again. My friends enjoyed the gnocchi, it took awhile for it to come out(waitress said they were training), we were not in any rush it was our girls night. They enjoyed it. Two of us ordered Sam's Favorite and one Blueberry. My friend split a slice of her sister's blueberry pizza with me, it was different but not in a bad way. We thought it was good. The different flavors complement each other. I enjoyed the Sam's Favorite, loved the kick of heat from the fresno peppers. We were full but made a little room for dessert lol, all three order the pot de crème. I will never turn down chocolate lol, it was delicious. Overall the food was good and friendly service, I can see this as date night spot for my husband and I. I enjoy a place like this because the menu is not overwhelming.

I now know that this unassuming restaurant has some of the friendliest staff and best prepared food in the Utica area. I can't wait to go back. With a full roster of reservations scheduled for their dining room, the four of us walked in and slotted up at the bar for dinner with front row seats to the action in the kitchen. First up: spicy and flavorful Utica greens covered in a healthy sprinkling of cheese. Would order again. After chatting with the owner, we ordered two scallop pasta dishes, a steak sandwich, and chicken Parm (which they were kind enough to make with fra diavolo sauce for my spice lord husband). EVERYTHING was impeccable, and I was honestly tempted to pick up my plate and lick it clean - that's how good the seared scallops over linguine were. Pasta was cooked perfectly, the sauce was light, well seasoned and well balanced (and not actually on their menu, so bonus points for being willing and able to pull that out on the fly!). In and out in about an hour, though we never felt rushed. We're looking forward to trying more apps and staying for an espresso and dessert next time!

Our server, Morgan, was great--very friendly and helpful. She recommended the special, and I'm glad she did because it was delicious. Everyone in my family enjoyed their meals too.

The atmosphere was welcoming, everything was very clean, and the food came out faster than we expected. Overall, it was a really great experience, and we'll definitely be coming back!

My mom and I like to go here whenever we come up for an event and that's what we did after a day full of shopping at their annual craft show. The wait to sit down was 2 hours but we opted to wait and find seats at the bar. Took us about 15 min. Once we sat the bartenders were all great and very prompt, always checking on us. We ordered an appetizer of onion rings and honestly they were so good! Crispy a d the onion didn't slide right out when taking a bite. We were honestly almost full just from that. We also got a burger to split and they were great about it they even played it separately no extra charge. The burger was perfectly cooked to medium. The maple glaze and Gorgonzola cheese were put on the side just like we asked. We're typically not picking a burger to eat, but this one was delicious! The glaze and the tang of the blue cheese was a unique pairing. Even my mom loved it. Could not have asked for a better meal after walking around for hours.
