Best Date Night Restaurants in Utica

We really enjoyed going to Andiamo pasta and chops. The food was fabulous! The service of the food was also fabulous and fast. It was more expensive than I expected, we spent $150 for three with only one person having alcohol. It was a very busy place and our waitress was a bit frazzled trying to keep up. The noise level was pretty high, that wasn’t a result of exuberance but because of acoustics. We will definitely go back, but probably not on a Saturday night. And we will expect to spend the amount we did. 

Our waitress, Bruna was one of the best I have ever experienced, a truly beautiful person. Our food was fantastic, Oso Buco and a pasta dish were both awesome. The ambiance is usually awesome but on thin night they were set up for a special high attendance celebration, even though it is a beautiful room. We have a connection to the chef, so came out yo greet us too. It was a wonderful experience snd we will continue to visit!!

Ambiance is very nice. The outdoor mall is decorated for the holidays making it very festive. The food is very good and the service is always top notch. We did a wine tasting before dinner and enjoyed the Padma Sauvignon Blanc very much. We took a bottle of that home with us.

It doesn't look like much but it is FABULOUS. My wife didn't like our first table. The hostess tried very hard to find another table, but they were so full she couldn't help. However, our darling server suggested we could move to the Pizza Bar which my wife loved (after I found her a high top chair that didn't wiggle (it was actually the uneven floor, but Quien sabe?!?1). After we got seated, she who must be obeyed, perked up. Our server was fabulous as was the Pizza chef who was a charming young man. The salads were fabulous especially the Caesar (Caesar himself would have been taken aback....minus Brutus that is, if you get my drift...) She had the salmon and Nis gadol hayad sham (on this day a miracle happened there}, she can't stop talking about it. I had the Gnocchi with marinara sauce and shrimp....Heavenly. If you want to have a fabulous dinner give the Verona a try

Atmosphere was pretty quiet. Staff were very polite and prompt. Will definitely return.
