I recently ran into the new Owner, nice guy, assured me it was good, and the original cook was back.
I took my Wife to lunch, and figured I would give it a try.
It was moderately busy. I ran hotels and restaurants for decades, so I am very forgiving of most things. In this case it was multiple issues.
Both our orders were wrong. The Waitress took responsibility, and fix most of the issues.
I can not speak for dinner, but lunch was filled with glaring lack of experience and oversight.
The menus were paper, and stained. I understand it makes changes easier. But, throw them out print fresh ones when they are soiled. The menu was limited. But there were also specials. I asked what the pork chops were stuffed with, she had to check. No problem, telling me ” Stove Top Stuffing” , translates to no culinary effort. Our food was luke warm, what means either the cook has no ability to time food to come out together, or it sat waiting to be picked up. My Wife’s fish fry was darkish brown. That means the oil in the fryer was old. Any restaurant doing fish fry in Utica knows it is a good seller. Add in the fries, and onion rings, that oil should have been brand new for Friday. My burger was barely warm, the cheese barely heated, they forgot the bacon, and brought it out after the fact. The bacon should be under the melted cheese. The best word I can use is mediocre. The shameful part is the ingredients were good quality, my burger was the correct rareness. My Wife’s fish was ok, for Utica, it was meager.
I am a generous tipper. I could not bring myself to leave less than 10%, I almost always do 20-25%. Very disappointed, it was unfortunate, but I won’t be going back.
To the owner, train your staff, if you offer onion rings in the same breath as fries, one would assume they are equal options. If there is an up charge, make sure your Waitress advises the customer at time of order, not just added to the check. Keep your cook in the kitchen watching the food. Thete is no reason a cook should ever be in the dinning room unless the place is empty, or there are ZERO, orders being made. He spent at least 5-10 sitting in the dining room, we were only there a short time!
Your staff needs to know, NEVER serve anything you would not eat, or be happy with yourself!!!
Seeing baked fish is only available for dinner, means the lunch guy is an over glorified fry cook. Up your game, hire professionals, and serve the quality of food the basic ingredients could produce with a trained person preparing it. MVCC has a culinary program, hire a student, they would produce better food than your lunch cook!!
Fifty dollars is a lot for mediocre, I spend twice that for a good dinner. But, I really felt like I might as well have gone home and had cold cuts!
Only got a taste of their food, but it was great.
plus new owners at this place..
Great to settle down watch a game have a beer/drink and snack, or even a dinner!
Check out events, trivia, live music, clams, and some sweet desserts!
Limited menu so ask for the daily specials to give you some additional options…
Enjoy!
