2006-11-29 22:24:34 Great place to go to get some dishes known in the Utica area like Greens and Chicken Riggis. —ScottHendler

2007-03-23 06:03:05 I've eaten there a number of times and each time I go, the food seems to get worse. I have always ordered their specialty, "Delmonico" but lately, it has gone down hill. —DonPablo
2007-03-28 05:10:52 Went again for the 3rd time last night and was still unimpressed and overwhelmed. Luckily we had gift certificates beacuse it wouldn't have been worth it if we paid full price. —JcPop
2007-04-11 19:29:07 i wasnt impressed they cook their steaks at to high of a temp so the outside is almost burned and the inside mostly pink and well done means no pink right? —JadeRaven
2007-07-23 16:00:47 Don't do it. No, seriously, not even if you're really hungry and it's the only place open. The hostess tried to seat my guest and I behind a party of 18 even though the place was 1/2 empty. My server was incomprehensibly inept. Their 24 oz Delmonico for $15.99 wasn’t worth $10. It was burned on the outside and very much rare compared to the medium-rare order I asked for. And as for the quality of the beef itself, I’ve got to guess they’re using USDA Standard or Commercial grade meats. At $15.99 it’s a perfect example of the old saying “If it seems too good to be true, it probably is.” —ZedOmega
2007-09-12 14:27:10 It's great if you like hearing "Happy Birthday" 28 times during your meal. Otherwise, steer clear. —MarcVera
2007-10-09 16:54:34 The first time I went here, when it first opened in Rochester, I was really unimpressed with my meal/the place overall. I returned about a month ago, ordered a different cut of steak (a leaner one) and liked the food much better the second time around. The garlic cheese bread was also a pretty tasty appetizer, but I was disappointed that they didn't bring us a basket of regular bread too. I know, I'm a carb hound. I didn't like where I was seated either time. The hostesses weren't very friendly either, like they hated their lives, though the wait staff seemed nice enough. —SaraChristine
2007-10-10 00:30:20 A decent Italian-ish restaurant. I'd skip the namesake Delmonico steak — order the Filet Marsala instead. —NathanHenderson
2007-11-10 15:02:16 My husband and I were completely unimpressed with this place. If you have the word "steakhouse" in your restaurant's name, wouldn't it be common sense that you'd actually know how to cook steak? My husband asked for medium and his steak was just as rare as mine was, which was wrong as well since I asked for medium rare. The meat was also a terrible cut. I most likely will not go back. —CatMagro
2007-12-04 18:09:29 The steak I ordered was alright, but the Penne Pasta on the side was disgusting. I found the food to be alright, but the atmosphere of the restaurant disturbed me a bit. All of the wait staff was female, and they looked like hooters with a little more clothing on. —RochesterCalifornia
