I had to go with the special burger of the month: the Backyard Banger. Everything about it was delicious. My wife had the Mac Bowl Classic Tenders and her mother enjoyed the other burger of the month: the El Jefe. Everyone left satisfied and I was praised for my choice. The building is a bit on the cramped side. It's a small place with a few tables and bar seating. Two restaurants occupy the same space and they definitely are going for that "hole-in-the-wall" feel, but in a good way. No pound cake here though.

The chicken offers a perfect balance of smoke and vinegary marinade, and the salt potatoes are great too. Obviously this review isn't recent but my 2019 memory is strong.

Bakers Chicken Coop is a staple each and every year at the NY State fair for as many years as I've…read morebeen alive. It is named for the man who invented the Cornell College BBQ sauce as well as the chicken nugget! Their BBQ chicken is like nothing you have tasted anywhere else due to that special sauce/marinade. I am not talking about that "red sauce" that a lot of people associate with the word bbq, it is more of a savory marinade. I recommend getting at least the 1/4 chicken, and the salt potatoes are a Syracuse must have. They are small potatoes perfectly brined then soaked in butter that date back to the 1800s salt miner industry here. Everything is tender and perfectly cooked. Prices are reasonable! Stop by here at least once during the fair, you'll find them on restaurant row in the same iconic building, sandwiched between the colliseum/horse barns/ and sheep barn.

The restaurant was beautifully set up for the holiday, with a great atmosphere and a thoughtfully curated drink menu. I ordered the Toxic Ex-presso Martini, and WOW -- it was incredible. Absolutely one of the best espresso martinis I've had. For appetizers, we got the Thai chili tossed Brussels sprouts with garlic aioli, and they were to die for. Perfectly seasoned, crispy, and flavorful -- honestly, I could've just eaten that and been happy! For dinner, I had the Chicken Française, which was perfectly cooked and full of flavor. My husband ordered the fish and chips and said the tartar sauce was some of the best he's ever had. My son got the shrimp tacos topped with pineapple pico and served with homemade chips -- sooo good! We ended the night with dessert (because how could we not?): a layered brownie and cookie dough cake and a maple crème brûlée. Both were phenomenal and the perfect sweet ending. We've been here for brunch before and now for dinner, and both experiences have been fantastic. I cannot wait to go back and try something new! Highly recommend!

I ordered the garlic rice and wings (bourbon sauce), mac and cheese, and fried green tomatoes. I was excited because I had read good things on this very site. However, I was a bit disappointed. The star of the meal was the garlic rice which was admittedly delicious- would certainly get this again. The wings were also okay. I would go with a different sauce next time, and for anyone wondering they are breaded wings. The mac and cheese was not good. Incredibly bland and not warm. Would not recommend. The fried green tomatoes weren't very crispy by the time I got them home and ate them, which is surprising because they ripped vent holes in the styrofoam container to combat this. Not inedible, just not very good. Overall was pretty disappointed with my experience, definitely willing to go back though, so hopefully it changes!

I hope to try their other ones. I tried the chicken tender sub tonight. It was really good. My only complaint is they forgot the bacon, which would've made it even better. The tenders seem homemade. Very fresh.
