    Our party of 3 had dinner on a Saturday night recently. It was a wonderful experience. We enjoyed the charcuterie plate and scallops with butternut squash to start. One on our party had the filet mignon special, one had the cauliflower steak, and one had the duck confit from the prix fixe menu. Everything was excellent. We finished the meal with the coffee cake and pot de creme. It was one of the best meals we’ve ever had and it’s amazing this place is in my old hometown I rarely get to visit! I loved that there was a prix fixe menu we could order items from. Wonderful place, wonderful service, great space. Can’t wait to come back the next time I’m in Utica.
