Our go to for weekend breakfast out since our daughter suggested it. Every item is delicious, savory or sweet.

My daughter and I were visiting Syracuse and we chose to have our late breakfast at Gracie's Kitchen yesterday because of the positive reviews on Yelp. When we walked into the restaurant, we were greeted by a waitress with the warmest and prettiest smiles. She was friendly and pleasant the entire time we were there. That really was the best way to start our day. We ordered short stacks of pancakes and steak and eggs to share. The aroma from the pancakes and steak immediately made us set a high expectation to the food. The pancakes were fluffy, the steak was cooked to our liking, the home fries were crispy on the outside and soft in the inside. I loved that they offered marble rye bread as one of the toasts choices. It's the first time I had it. Boy, everything about that toast was perfect! We couldn't finish all the food because the portion sizes were huge. It's the best diner food we ever had! Not only that we enjoyed our food, we loved the hometown neighborhood diner decor vibes. We had a very good experience at Gracie's Kitchen. read more

Great home cooked breakfast. Friendly staff and customers. We're from Ohio and if I'm in town I'll definitely have breakfast here again. read more

My friend had heard about this place so we decided to try it Sunday morning for breakfast. I decided to just have a basic breakfast but we all know that not everyone does it right. Well friends, Gracie's Kitchen does. Eggs over medium, cooked to perfection. No slime or snot and a perfect runny yolk. Bacon, crispy and delicious Homefries, Great flavor! Some crispy bits. I think next time I'll request them a little more crispy. Coffee was good, hot, and quick refills. Servicewas fantastic. Our server was great. The place is cute. A little small but it wasn't busy. Not sure if that's because it was Memorial Day weekend or because it's sort of hidden away. I recommend checking this place out. You won't be disappointed. Sorry I forgot to get pics. read more

In from the Utica area and wanted breakfast. Read a few reviews and decided to give it a try. Do it!!! The place is a good size and love the decor. The food was perfect. Husband said the hash is the best he's had in ages! It is(yes I tested it). It's honestly home made and no one does that anymore. Eggs are fluffy and my home fries are perfect....crispy in the outside and soft on the inside. Very good coffee and great service. Wish we lived closer. If you are thinking about breakfast, give them a try. read more

This was really cool, diner with unique specials and some exceptional menu items. I chose gluten free pancake griddle stuff with eggs, bacon and cheese. Was awesome, solid service, busy, solid food and experience. read more

Cute little diner, right outside of Tipp Hill. A perfect location to grab a quick breakfast. The food was delicious, the home fries were nice and crispy. Prices were reasonable. We were seated right away on a Saturday which was a huge plus! read more

The burger is fantastic. Good meat done as ordered. We always order med rare and get well-done. Gracie's gets it right. This place epiomizes the neighborhood diner, complete with gingham tablecloths. The service is friendly and our server was from central casting. read more

We enjoyed a really good low key breakfast at Gracie's. We went on a Saturday morning and were able to get a table right away. They have all the typical breakfast staples. We especially enjoyed the potatoes! The staff was very friendly and great at checking on us and making sure we always had coffee. We'll definitely be back! read more

Gracie's Kitchen - Cranberry juice and coffee - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Solvay, New York

I am a new regular here having just moved from out of state. Early bird specials before 9 am are unbeatable for value! The coffee is always fresh, very friendly service- I've only had traditional breakfast items because they're too delicious for me to try anything else but I suspect all of their food is good! Highly recommend for a solid meal. read more

Been here once before but unimpressed. Thought it was time to give it another go. Still unimpressed. The waitress was excellent and the was too but the food wasn't very good. There's nothing difficult about bacon egg and home fries....or so you would think. The home fries which we ordered with onions (we were told it was automatic) had not a single onion in sight. I seem to remember the same complaint last time. My eggs ordered over medium looked like snot! Under done and impossible to pick up. The bacon was a salty variety and not too pleasant. Toast was good though!!!! read more

Friendly, fast service and great food! Perfect diner for us, from out of town, looking for something good for the whole family!

By far the BEST breakfast I've had in a VERY long time. I am so happy I found this place. The service was beyond amazing! Even though it was quite busy and only one waitress on I was checked on and taken care of! Very chill vibe and great food! read more

This is a very classic American diner. I love places like this. The parking lot is very small and probably cannot accommodate a very large crowd but this is a small diner anyways so I think it's about the right size for this place. They had cool artwork on the walls that showed us the exact vibe they were going for here. The food menu wasn't overinflated with tons of food, just the basics and essentials. We strolled in around lunch time and were all happy to know they served breakfast all day, as many diners do. I ordered biscuits & gravy, and it was exactly what I wanted. Often times gravy is a too thin, too thick, not flavorful, over seasoned, etc. but, this was as perfect as you can get. Eggs were cooked perfectly to order which sounds easy but truly you don't always get that. The staff was alert and friendly. Orders were taken quickly and food was delivered to the table with haste as well, which all hungry patrons enjoy. I definitely recommend eating here if you haven't been. read more

Wow this place was phenomenal!! The food was really good. The service was great! My waitress was very friendly and attentive. Food came out quickly. read more

First off as soon as you walk in it takes forever to get seated, granted it was a Saturday. Ordered a meat lovers omelette that had no cheese and bacon was uncooked. The omelette itself was overdone. Asked for corned beef hash instead of home fries but was given homefries with little pieces of corned beef added in instead which also came with onions which I don't eat or ask for. Took approximately 45 minutes to get new batch without onions but was trying to leave at that point. It literally took an additional 1/2 just to try to pay. Sorry but would not recommend coming here unless you have a few hours to spare and subpar food. read more

Mary Mandolfo, who has owned and operated "The Neighborhood Grind" diner in Nedrow for the past seven years, opened a new diner in February at 527 Charles Ave, in Geddes Plaza in the village of Solvay. The new diner is named "Gracie's Kitchen,'' after Mandolfo's mother. I don't really know how I heard about this place, but I had to drop the wife off somewhere today in the area and figured I'd stop in. The cafe occupies the space formerly taken by The Buzz Cafe, right next to Mo Dough. I walked in about 930 on a Sunday. The place isn't huge, but it's a decent size with a good amount of seating. They only opened about a month or so ago, so there were plenty of seats available, probably still getting new customers in the door. It's a very nicely decorated place. Has a modern rustic design feel to it. I was told I could pick a seat, so I sat and my menu was brought right over to me. They have mostly the usual breakfast items you'll see in other diners. Nothing too crazy or creative. They have a larger lunch/dinner menu, but unlike other diners, they don't serve lunch options at all times of the day. I ordered an orange juice and a half meat lovers frittata. It was made very quickly, probably less than 10 minutes, and was very good. Scrambled eggs stuffed with home fries, sausage, ham, pepperoni and bacon, and I added cheddar cheese on top. Even though I ordered a half, it was still absolutely huge and more than enough for 2 people to have shared, so I took half home with me. Service was fine, the girl who waited on me was nice and polite and checked in appropriately. Price was definitely fair, as it only came to $12 for an orange juice and a meal that'll feed me twice. Nice little place, will definitely come back and check out lunch sometime. read more

Get the kitchen together, no one told us the kitchen was 20 minutes behind and when the food came out it was cold in hour wait for nothing.

Stopped in in a Saturday morning- wasn't busy at all. That being said the food was good and pretty cheap (had the pepper and egg sandwich special). My server was very quick and attentive. Would definitely recommend you check out this little spot! read more

This is a very nice diner. I followed Yelp reviews to this place and it did not disappoint. Food was very good, waitress was super nice, and zero complaints about prices. Can't wait to go again! read more

Food was great and it was clean and new inside. Decor is modern and comfortable. Our waitress was super polite and they are following COVID precautions seriously. I got a huge plate of delicious food for only $10! The menu wasn't very large but they had some specials and I don't mind not having to choose from a million options, glad we tried this place out! read more

Gracie's is a great little breakfast spot. They serve all the basic diner foods. The home fries are fantastic. They have a great crisp to them. Service is good and there's never a wait. Other diners can be super crowded on the weekends and this is a great hidden gem. read more

Gracie's kitchen is tucked away in a small strip mall near Tipp Hill, but it's definitely worth your efforts to put into GoogleMaps to find. The atmosphere is rustic and laid-back, everything that you'd be looking for on a Sunday brunch. We were seated and given coffee right upon walking in. The waitstaff was friendly and our good was delicious. Protip: the half frittata is enough good to feed two people - we ended up bringing half of it home because we all ordered our own meals. Prices were really reasonable given the amount of quality food that you get. Definitely a place to add to your Syracuse breakfast list! read more

From the outside door in the plaza it doesn't look like much, but when you walk inside it's much bigger, and the staff give you a welcome greeting that you don't see anymore. The decor was well done with accent walls and modern. Very clean and up to date. They were busy with 2 waitresses on but very attentive and friendly. The food was amazing!! I had the omelet special which was pleasantly surprised was made with real eggs and not that egg better crap. My husband has the homemade hash which was out of this world and my son had eggs pancakes and bacon. Pancakes were very good with like a touch of cinnamon in them. The bacon was cooked crispy and fresh. Will definitely be back!!! read more

Adorable little place. Great menu and very friendly service. Prices are great too. Will definitely make it a point to go back.

Very solid diner food, great home fries. We've never had to wait to be seated and have had very attentive service every time we've been

Amazing family meals for take out! We called today to place an order for dinner, after weeks of my sister raving abt how great it is. Today's special was chicken & biscuits with hamburger soup (option of salad, but my kids don't eat plants) & it was absolutely phenomenal. For the four of us, we got the 3-5 serving meal & we definitely have enough leftovers for another dinner. The food was excellent, the soup was great, & we also got slices of pie (per the owner from Harrison Bakery) & that was amazing, too. A bargain for the price, considering how good it was & how much we got. We will definitely order dinner from them again. read more

Great service and food and not too busy! Our coffee cups were never empty. Food was delicious and as we asked for, the highlight was the French toast. Super friendly and attentive server. We came on a Saturday morning and got a table right away. read more

Great breakfast. Great service. We'll be back. SU Parent Weekend 2022. Hidden gem for visitors.

Saw an ad in the paper and am always looking to.try new places. The omelet was fantastic and home fries the best I had in a long time. The reason for the lower stars was the long wait to to get waited on and also to get the food served. There was only one waitress working the floor. She did her best but they were severally short staffed. I would not recommend going at the busy times unless they get more help. Fix the long wait and they move up to 5 stars !! read more

I love the look, feel and atmosphere and especially the food. There's a nice friendly staff as well. I wish I time to go more often. I would definitely recommend this spot for sure! read more

This place is a gem. Great food, service and prices. I've been here several times and always been happy. You can't go wrong choosing this place. read more

Used to really enjoy going to Gracie's for lunch or dinner, but lately something has changed. Both wait staff and food are mediocre at best; waitress on the noon shift really leaves a lot to be desired. Rarely see her more than the requisite four times: once for drinks, once for orders, food delivery, bill. I know this is a diner, but at least a check bsvk to mske sure all is ok would be nice. Other things occupy her time like friends and phone. Sad to say, Gracie's is no longer a place where I choose to spend my money. It has really degraded to mediocre at best. read more

Service is awesome, waitresses happy and helpful. Sausage gravy very tasty, along with homemade hash. We will for sure be returning.

I heard good comments and read some good reviews so we thought we would try it. We arrived on a weekday morning there were maybe 5 people there we sat at a table and proceeded to wait for server while those around us were either waiting for their check or refills. We all could see people talking in the kitchen for at least 10 minutes maybe more not cooking or cleaning just talking after a few more minutes we got up and left and went someplace else. Looked like typical diner food, the place was clean and after we figured out what plaza it was in realized it was a convenient location with decent parking. Will not return again, no service is inexcusable especially during breakfast time when servers were not rushed and tables not full read more
