I made 530 reservations three weeks in advanced for Christmas Eve, only the lounge was available…read more We decided to arrive a little early to have a cocktail at the bar. There was not any parking available, the entire parking lot was full. We decided to go down the street for a bit. I was dropped at the door and the crowd was to the door. After a bit I realized no one was moving and this was just the wait for tables. I was able to push through to the greeter and let hostess know we had arrived. I then attempted to use the bathroom that was also overflowing with patrons. By the time I was able to sift through the crowd again our table was available in the lounge. We had a party of four that could barely squash into the tiny booth and a guests coat from another table was blocking a portion of the very small opening to the booth. By this time I was ready to call it an evening, the congested area was just very uncomfortable. Large parties just standing in the lounge area many with small children. It would have been more appropriate to have families not utilizing the lounge wait outside if there was no waiting space in the corridor.Our server was friendly and very efficient. I had a salad with crumbly blue cheese. Surf and Turf medium rare. The steak was very rare. Other guests had sampler, and pasta with meatballs. The food was good other than my steak being rare. I had a pomegranate martini for my second cocktail. My portion of the bill with tip was $120 for surf and turf and one martini. The first round of drinks was paid for at the bar. I thought it was a bit steep for what I received but it was a holiday so why not treat yourself! I did purchase a $50 GC as well and it seemed I was going to have to get back to hostess stand, fortunately our server was able to accommodate the purchase for me! There was no way of getting through the crowd again. It was now after 7pm and the commotion was increasing. As we exited there was a loud dispute and two vehicles yelling profanities at each other this went on for nearly five minutes as we were trying to get to our vehicle that was in the line of fire. Several other guests also seemed to be caught up in this stand off. Fortunately the dispute was broken up peacefully. I don't think I will be coming back on a holiday, to say the least.

They had the original menu from opening in 1986 on display at our table which was fun to discuss during dinner! We got 2 drinks, 2 entrees, and a dessert for around $100. The entrees were pretty big servings, and came with choice of soup or salad. We both got pasta dishes and were pleased with the flavors and quality. All of their signature cocktails look quite sweet, but they also have a full bar and wine/beer menu. The chocolate chip cannoli we got for dessert was huge, tasty, and had plenty of chocolate chips, but it wasn't my favorite that I've had. I should have tried their dessert special, hazelnut Bailey's cheesecake! Servers were friendly and attentive, checking on us and refilling waters as needed. We felt overall that the prices were a bit steep for the experience but overall enjoyed our evening and would recommend a visit.

Nonna's 2 giant meatballs are served in a bowl with tomato sauce and a nice size portion of ricotta cheese. I enjoyed the meatballs very much. The texture is a little soft, but it didn't bother me... I thought the flavor was very good. The tomato sauce is simple with mild seasoning. The salad was a good size and everything was very fresh...the balsamic vinaigrette was a little sweet. Our server kept our water glasses full and asked us several times how our meals were.

Great chill place with an awesome playlist of oldies music and the opportunity for indoor and outdoor scenic views.

I'd give it 4.5/5 Piggybacking off some lower star reviews I didn't see ANY issues with portion sizes or quality. Crab sauce had a lot of crab in it and the king cut prime rib was massive, a tiny bit fattier for my liking but that's how prime rib comes sometimes. Very flavorful meals and even though I put down as much food as I could we still had plenty of leftovers!

Amore Pizza & More is a must-visit pizza shop for anyone in the Syracuse area. The pizza is simply amazing, and the owner is equally fantastic. One thing that stands out about this establishment is the level of dedication and attention that the owner shows to customers. From start to finish, the owner takes the time to ensure that every customer is completely satisfied with their order. The pizza itself is truly remarkable. The crust is perfectly crispy, the sauce is delicious, and the toppings are always fresh and plentiful. Whether you prefer a classic cheese pizza or something a bit more adventurous, Amore Pizza & More has something for everyone. You can tell that the owner takes great pride in the quality of the ingredients and the preparation of each pizza. The only downside to Amore Pizza & More is that the wait times can be a bit long. However, this is to be expected given the high demand for their delicious pizza. That said, the wait is definitely worth it. You won't find better pizza in the Syracuse area, and the owner's dedication to customer satisfaction only adds to the overall experience. Overall, I highly recommend Amore Pizza & More to anyone looking for great pizza and excellent service. Whether you're a local or just passing through, you won't be disappointed. read more

Artichokes, meats, cheeses, veggie galore, including Giardinera and house made Italian dressing! Total $16 and change a great price for the portion and amount of ingredients!

I had 3 slices, a pepperoni, a chicken bacon ranch and a Buffalo chicken slice. The pepperoni was decent. The chicken bacon ranch was definitely pretty tasty but I was blown away by the Buffalo chicken slice, it definitely out did the others. Would rate the slices a 4.5/5. I've never been a huge buffalo chicken slice fan because I hate loads of grease dripping off my slice and the flavor has never been there for me, but whatever these guys are doing with this works, so this is something I would order again. I also ordered a large Turkey sub with American, LTO and Mayo... definitely sub par for sure (pun intended). All lettuce and not a lot of meat...was very surprised as it was roughly $15 and probably 2 slices of Turkey all the way through, so probably a total of 6-7 smaller sized slices for a large sub. Would rate the sub a 2.5/5. I will definitely be back for the pizza! Hoping they see this and throw a little more meat on their subs next time especially for the price. All in all Chittenango Pizza loads their slices up with toppings which I appreciate. Who wants a skimpy slice of pie? Service was great, ambiance was comfortable, I appreciate that it's the old Pizza Hut, kind of nostalgic and decorated with wizard of oz knick knacks etc which is typical for the town :-)
