Great for creative cocktails

Our family roots reach back to a small family farm. A farm that provided my parents a hard working existence – nourishing the land to produce the freshest quality of fruits and vegetables. Our childhood lessons included the benefit of hard work and personal sacrifice, so when it came to food we never cut corners and a passion for simple but really good food began.

All my recipes reach back from my grandmothers to my mother, and today to you. We take personal pride and dedication to serving you quality food with only the best ingredients prepared our own way.

We at ‘It’s a Utica Thing’ treat our customers like our friends, our friends like family. If you have enjoyed our food tell a friend and bring them in to join our family.

We loved the look of its a Utica Thing very cute inside. Every employee was so nice - especially the bartender- she was sweet and funny. Loved her. Our waitress- adorable young lady with long eyelashes and a whole host of colored pens - was also excellent. Three of us ordered eggplant parm which was delicious! My husband had the bolognese which he devoured. The only thing that was a negative is that it was cold inside - probably because it’s a small place and when the door opens it’s a shot of cold air. Not sure if anything can be done about that but just wear something warm when you go - which you should definitely do!

This is a wonderful day experience. We generally go out once a month with friends and we pick a different place every month. The drinks from the bar were great specials. The menu were delicious. The veal was awesome. I would highly recommend this to anybody. Have a nice night out.

The food was awesome!! Our server was so sweet and pleasant. I’m vegetarian and I believe if a restaurant can make great vegetarian dishes then the other dishes are probably fantastic! I highly recommend this place.

We met the owner and chef. He was excellent. Great little restaurant with a very nice bar. Our server was young and I think learning as she was very slow. Highly recommend having a full time host at dinner time greeting customers. We stood at the front for awhile. Overall has some great potential. Food was very good.

Good but not Great. Poor Value for Money Spent. We ordered Italian Food and they did not even serve Bread. Noise Level is Somewhat Loud for Dining because they have a Bar. Waitress was not very friendly. Will probably not return here. Overrated.
