Judy works with me to create a food menu that matches the theme of the party and helps make the uniqueness of each party come to life. From a Game of Thrones to a Texas Shindig to a Fire & Ice party, there's nothing she won't try. I always have the bartender and a couple of servers to help. They set up, clear, and clean up so I can fully enjoy my party. Don't hesitate for large or small parties, The Savory Palate can customize a full menu to your wishes.

Luckily I had contacted Judy at Savory Palete, and in hindsight it was the best decision I could have possibly made. The stress of hosting was taken off my shoulders. I was able to mingle and have fun with my family and friends while the food was being taken care of. I received endless complements on the menu choices and the taste of food. Judy was easy to work with and went above and beyond for my guests. I would highly recommend her and her staff for any event. -Amanda Dauphinais

I was very impressed with the service. My pet peeve is dirty dishes sitting in front of people and that did not happen! The wedding cake was delicious.

I definitely recommend Emily's for your next event.

They were helpful, responsive, and everything was clear and upfront. There were no surprise charges, or "gotchas". In fact they did several things beyond the scope of the contract without additional charges. More importantly, on the wedding day everything went perfectly. They gave us great advice on the set up of the tables, chairs, bar etc. They listened carefully to everything that was asked of them, made a couple of outstanding suggestions and dealt with the problems caused by strong gusts of wind at an outdoor venue with calm assurance. All of the food was incredible. The hor's d'ourves were fantastic, especially the brie and artichoke tarts, mini lobster rolls and tuna tacos. The mac and cheese in mini ramekins were also a huge hit. The dinners were equally delicious. I had the half chicken, which was served with a delicious polenta. It was absolutely amazing. Perfectly cooked, moist with a crispy skin. Other sides were served family style and were all fantastic. The dessert was also superb. Each guest received a trio of mini desserts, each of which was delightful. We had several guests with food restrictions (vegetarian, gluten free, dairy free). The servers made sure the restrictions were observed, and they made it a point to bring appropriate appetizers to those guests, which was a very nice touch. All of the guests raved about the food. The service was also first class. There were so many servers handling the passed hor's d'ourves that every guest had multiple chances to try each of the offerings. Service of the dinner was equally impressive. The venue is outdoors, and it is a bit of a hike from the kitchen tent to the dining area. Despite that, the guests were served quickly, and the food came to the table still hot. Finally, their prices are quite reasonable, especially given the outstanding quality of the food and service. A very good value.

On our first visit we ordered the Pulled Pork Sandwich and Wild Turkey. The service was so good, all of the guys behind the deli made sure everyone was promptly assisted. When I lifted the bag of our 2 sandwiches, it was as heavy as a brick!! The sandwiches were so big we split one for lunch and one for dinner. The winner was the pulled pork, but we loved the turkey too. We returned a couple of days later for another pulled pork sandwich and I also ordered a giant dill pickle I saw on the counter. This place also has a huge selection of raw meats and prepared foods and a bunch of random local goodies and sauces to try. Again, I wish I took a picture of my sandwich, but I forgot about the existence of my phone while I was enjoying it :)

Shout out to Jocelyn, Liz, Kristen, Grace, and the others whose names I don't know (yet, lol)! Alex (I'm unsure of his title) is superb as well! And I cannot forget the people who work back of house... the unsung heroes/backbone of the hospitality industry... Busmen, Superb Cleaners of Dishes and Silverware and Floors and Such, and anyone else who has a hand in making Mulligan's such a happy, satisfying, safe, welcoming place. The owner seems to be a presence there also, which is very nice, and I saw him taking photos of the crowd enjoying themselves. They also have a dining room and another, more intimate bar area. Don't miss out on trying this place... Stop in! You will not regret it!

Had been hearing a lot of positive talk about Mulligans Grille here in New Hartford, so we had to…read morego check it out this afternoon. We live close by, it's only a half mile away from our house -- within walking distance ! The place had a "Rustic vibe", with an industrial look, we liked the atmosphere as soon as we had walked in. We ordered a calamari appetizer and a dozen Sweet & Spicy Wings to start off with. My wife also went with a Malibu Dream cocktail for her drink (it was outstanding). Calamari was excellent, marinara was spot on. Wings were meaty with a crispy outing coating, and the sauce was flavorful, but not overpowering. My wife's Steak sandwich was served on fresh grinder roll, the ribeye melted in her mouth (I sampled a bit of it, and plan to order the Steak sandwich on my next visit to Mulligans). My Caesar salad was also very fresh tasting. Service was stellar, Carolina was friendly & attentive. Mulligans is a Winner, an easy 5 Star rating. We plan to be back again very soon.

These days it's hard to find a cafe that isn't overpriced and better than just average. But Toasted Oat hits the high points of quality of cook on the food, even if the ingredients may not all be top notch. They have breakfast sandwiches, bowls and scrambles, as well as regular sandwiches, salads and burritos. We enjoyed the regular breakfast sandwich with spinach and cheese (subbed the meat but wish the spinach had been cooked in - $7) and the breakfast scramble which included 2 eggs, 3 veggies, cheese, protein all mixed/cut up together, as well as hash brown (didn't exactly look homemade?) and toast ($11). Everything was served in to-go containers so the looks weren't the best but makes sense given the place and that most people probably don't dine in. You order at the counter and they bring you your food. Everything takes time to come out so you know it's done to order. They also have some coffee and tea. They had a few coffee cake items in a glass display but didn't look homemade either. It feels like a cafe should have more selection of pastries but again bother me. Service was friendly and patient. The actual location isn't that great visually either. There is one longer table and a few smaller ones, but it's not a big place and not decorated to impress (fine by me!) It is located in a small nondescript plaza with an Indian market. Small parking lot. Wish this small business well!

Working with SKBT and Karen has been a joy from start to finish. From the moment we walked into our tasting to create our delicious menu, to last minute changes, to executing perfect food the day of, I want to relive this experience again and again. My guests raved about the menu, and some favorites included fun takes on cocktail meatballs, shrimp and grits, and chilled tomato soup shooters. The food was beautiful and displayed like it was in a magazine. Karen and her team were also in charge of staffing my event. This meant not only did they feed my guests, but bussed the tables, cleaned up trash, set up my pie display (Karen took it upon herself to clean out her stock of cake stands and create the most beautiful tables ever) and EVEN mop my bathroom trailer when it sprung a leak. As guests started to leave, SKBT cleaned every table and organized my decor. Best of all, Karen and her team were friendly and attentive the entire night. My bridal party had their own tray of appetizers waiting for them immediately following the ceremony, and all night the staff checked in on my husband and I (as well as my parents) to see how they could help. I eagerly look forward to having another event so I can hire this team again.

My favorite purchases were the fresh cut egg linguine and the Ritz-based stuffed cod. The fresh linguine cooks in a minute and the texture just hits different in the best possible way. The cod was nice and firm and the Ritz stuffing was crazy delicious. I also liked the Chicken Francaise. You can't really compare it to restaurant quality Francaise because it's specifically made to be re-heated and eaten later. With this in mind, I though that the small chicken pieces and lemon sauce were very solid. My other purchases included clam chowder and Tuna Mac Salad with peas. The Tuna Mac was pretty good. It wouldn't be in regular rotation for me, but I'd get it once in a while. The clam chowder was my least favorite, but I respect that New England Pasta seemed to go for something different. The texture was good and it had plenty of clams and potato. But it tasted like it had a little blue cheese flavor. I can't say for sure that they used blue cheese, but the chowder definitely had something different that gave it this vibe. For me, this flavor was a bit too assertive. I don't live near New England Pasta, but if I did, I would visit once in a while. Four Stars
