I ordered the double cheeseburger, and it was juicy, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. The onion rings were nicely cooked and crispy, and the Oreo shake was so good, even though I didn't get a picture of it. The decor was really nice too, with a fun old-school vibe. I would definitely recommend stopping by!

I had the pear mojito and my friend had the apple cider margarita which were both lovely. For food we both ordered the Higby sandwich with a side of sweet potato fries. The portion was so huge that it was worth at least 2 meals! The fries were perfectly seasoned and crispy. I enjoyed the steak along with the greens, and the roll was also good. This place is very large inside. There is pizza take out in the back, lots of indoor seating, a nice bar area, and a large patio. They also have a very nice event space upstairs. Parking is the shared lot behind the building. Will definitely return next time I am in NY.

The service has never been great. Bartender served three people before me when I was clearly in sight and before them. Never been a big fan of the owner but hasn't stopped me from visiting.

A true embarrassment to himself and his businesses. My family and I were there to celebrate a birthday. Some of us were in line to order food while the others sat at a patio table. We were approached by a waitress who told us we had to leave because we had a kid under 18 with us. We were bummed and she said the owner was there and she would talk to him about it to see if he would allow an exception. We've been there before on the patio with kids since the signs for 18 and over were only on the doors beyond the patio. She came back a short time later and said no we had to leave. While we were walking back to the table to leave, the owner made a snarky comment to us about never coming back and leaving a negative review. We approached him because what business owner does that? He proceeded to raise his voice at us and have a meltdown when we were being level headed and asking about the policy and asking him to check on the multiple other tables that had kids under 18 sitting at them. He stated that he couldn't have anyone under 18 in the building because of his license. There is no such license in New York State so that was a complete lie. He then told us to just get the f*** out. It's totally fine if he wants to run his business with that policy (the only one in the area), but the manner he handled the situation was out of line and uncalled for. As per the owners request we will be leaving negative reviews and never going to a business associated with him ever again.

(Both living within 15ish minutes of the location) I asked why she didn't have a scanner or anything to determine our ids. wasted over 60 dollars to Uber there to meet another friend. if you're not an older individual or a "local" don't waste your time or your money there. not worth it. I understand the ny state policy but this was embarrassing, rude, and simply a huge waste of my time. Very disappointed and felt extremely targeted.

Its a one man operation as the owner is the chef and waiter so if it fills up, you may have to wait a bit but its worth it. We were fortunate to have the place to ourselves at the time we went and the owner/chef, Jeff, was a great host with many personal stories about the history of Utica and his personal colorful past. We had his stuffed French toast which was awesome and some eggs. The coffee and tea are self serve and there are seats at the counter and a couple tables. The place only seats around 16 people but he assured us that he occasionally gets many more in there at a time. If you're looking for a great breakfast or lunch during the week (its closed on weekends) and don't need any frills, this is the place to go. We'll definitely be back!
