Tucked into a strip plaza along Brewerton Road in Mattydale sits XCrispy, a new spot channeling the…read morespirit of NYC style bodegas and bringing something fresh to the Central New York food scene. The owners of XCrispy spent a year transforming a run-down former Pizza Hut from an eyesore into a nicely remodeled, open space, blending halal traditions with American comfort staples like smashburgers, chopped cheese, and chicken over rice. X Crispy is near my job, so I was excited to try them. I saw they had breakfast options, and they had a steak, egg and cheese sandwich, which oddly enough isn't offered in many places in CNY, so that was the first thing I tried. You're able to customize, so I got it on a roll with "mixed cheese" & their house sauce. I ordered online, and their online ordering option is easy to use and allows substitutions. It was ready as soon as I got there, which was around 10AM on a Saturday. It was delicious, still hot and fresh even though it was already ready when I got there. My only complaint was there wasn't enough house sauce on it for my taste, but it was still delicious, piled high with steak. My second time, my wife wanted to give it a try, and we got some dinner items. We ordered online again, a smash burger and one of their crispy chicken sandwiches. We asked for several things on the side, as we were taking it to go and had about a 35 minute drive with it. We got it home and unfortunately were disappointed. Both items were dry, the chicken sandwich almost seemed like it was frozen, and all items that were asked for on the side were simply removed and left out from our order. I didn't think we would return after that, but I just kept seeing good review after good review and thought...this has to have been an off day, or the food simply doesn't travel well. So I gave them another try over the weekend when I was craving a cheese burger and knew I had time to eat it there. I, again, ordered online and got the smash hit burger with fries, and left out tomato and lettuce as I'm not a fan on smash burgers. And they definitely redeemed themselves. Again, food was ready as soon as I got there, was fresh, the burger was moist, juicy, seasoned well, and not only did it have the sauce on it, I was also given extra on the sides, so I have to chalk the one time up to a bad day, and everyone's allowed that. I will continue to go back, but more than likely, only when I'm able to eat right there.

On a recent busy Monday night I went, intending to sit at the bar as it was just myself. However,…read morethe bar was full and festive, in anticipation of a private party in the adjoining room. I didn't let that deter me and was led to a table by the hostess who greeted me immediately upon my entrance. (I actually got to pick my table). She told me my server would be with me shortly which gave me time to look at the screen and pick a beer. There were happy hour specials and a full range of cocktails from the bar but I wanted a beer. When my waitress arrived soon after, I chose the Talking Cursive Rhubarb Raspberry Pie as I like the sours. It was a wonderful choice. It was tasty and had a sharp taste that I really like. While she went to get that I decided on the Lemon Garlic Shrimp dinner. I ordered that and it came with a salad that was out quickly, on a cold plate and crisp and fresh. I had time to enjoy that prior to the arrival of my entree. All the while the restaurant/bar area continued to fill up with people for the private party. This didn't take anything away from the diners though as the pace of the food was excellent as was the service. When my dinner did arrive, it was the perfect portion, and served with garlic bread. The shrimp were large and the lemon garlic was flavorful but didn't overwhelm the linguine. It wasn't a pasta dish drowning in sauce or juices. It had just the right combination to be tasty but not "sloppy". My waitress continued to check on me and as busy as it was for a Monday I never felt rushed, hurried or forgotten. As a bonus, there was spring training baseball on two of the TVs which is always a win in my book. After this solo outing, I chose to go back a few days later when a friend and I went out for dinner (and loved that meal as well)

This was my first time dining at Vicino's Brick & Brew however it definitely won't be the last…read more It was a beautiful sunny day so I was very excited that they offered outdoor seating.

The flavor went through all the meat, and the lettuce and tomato were not drowned out. The sub roll was delicious! I could only eat half- it was a full meal. The Rueben was thinly sliced pastrami that was grilled before assembly. The bread was not greasy and the sandwich was not too salty. I could eat it with my hands and could taste the sauerkraut, cheese and dressing without them overwhelming the whole flavor profile. The fries were tasty and a good portion size. The menu is so extensive that I will have to visit often. I definitely recommend stopping in. Great service, nice staff, good atmosphere!

When my partner and I walked in, we were greeted by a man at the counter and mentioned it was our first time visiting. His response was about as uninterested as it gets. Instead of offering a menu or any guidance, he simply pointed off to the side and told us to order when we were ready. Not exactly a welcoming first impression. The space itself was small, with a few tables, drink coolers, baked goods, and smoothie options. After placing our order, we waited...and waited. After exactly 40 minutes, I finally asked about the status, especially after watching another couple come in after us, order, and leave with their food before we received ours. I understand that takeout and delivery orders are part of the business, but in-house customers should not be completely overlooked. There was no communication, no sense of urgency, and no effort to acknowledge the delay. It genuinely felt like we didn't matter as customers. And for what? Two sandwiches--a roast beef and a turkey. Having worked in restaurants myself, I can confidently say that should not take 40 minutes under normal circumstances. I don't enjoy writing negative reviews, but this experience was frustrating enough to warrant one. We will not be returning. Save yourself the time and look elsewhere.
