I would highly recommend either Flying Pig Roast or their sister company Creative Catering for your event. You won't be disappointed and you and your guests will be extremely happy.

Service was so prompt and nice, and being able to order straight from your phone and pay/being able to walk away easily after was super convenient. I got the Meatball Riggie Turn Down (side) since I wasn't super hungry after traveling, and I definitely recommend this as a lunch portion - the side size was really filling and still pretty big. The meatball was incredible (and large) and the sauce of this pasta, while it had a little heat to it, was well seasoned and smooth. Great chill place with an awesome playlist of oldies music and the opportunity for indoor and outdoor scenic views.

NOTE: I had no…read moreidea the quality of service, as I left it up to my staff to find the appropriate caterer for my event. Well, my staff didn't disappoint, as usual, and neither did Diamond Catering. There are only two other reviews, and both with five stars. As much I tried to find reasons not for five stars, I could not. They truly do deserve five stars, and here is why. I will admit that my event was extra challenging, as catering was ordered last minute, and we had a number of hoops to jump through. That being said, the staff was very flexible and accommodating. They were never upset or fussy with our last minute challenges. Instead, they did exactly what we asked. How about that for change? So, to the food. I wanted the participants to have a great full breakfast, awesome lunch, and nice reception with open bar in the end. My staff ordered, and they provided exactly that, and the response from the meeting participants was "two thumbs up"! I won't go into too much detail, but the breakfast was full of fresh fruit, potatoes O'Brien, hickory smoked bacon, maple sausage, assorted pastries, and best of all baked egg strata with a very nice cream sauce, not too mention plenty of coffee, which tends to run out quickly in an event full of techies. Lunch was well, just as awesome. Cider Mill Salad, smoked gouda mac and cheese, roasted veggies, vidalia chicken, bourbon beef brisket, house rolls, cookies and brownies. I didn't get to try all, as I was so busy, but I will say, one attendee came up to me and said, "These brownies are fantastic. This is one of the best brownies I've every had." Well, I couldn't try them, since they were all gone, but I guess that shows you how good everything was. I would use these guys again, anytime I am back in Syracuse. Not just because of the quality of the food, the decent price, but mainly because of the flexibility when it came to their service. Anyone looking for a really great caterer in Syracuse, especially if you are in a bind, look these guys up. They are fantastic! Sorry, limited photos as was ultra busy all day.

As for the BBQ, the brisket was tender, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. The ribs were good as well, slightly on the tougher side than I prefer, but still very enjoyable.

I had the Seafood Alexander (amazing). Their steaks were tender and delicious. The service was top notch. The Owner, Charlie, came around to the tables to check on us. We made reservations at the last minute, so we ended up in the "overflow" room, which was in a seperate room from the main restaurant. I would suggest if you go with younger kids (which we did) you book this area. The Ambience in both areas was great. We walked through the main restaurant which was dimly lit and had music. Perfect for a well deserved, relaxed evening. The Overflow room was more lit and quiet, for a relaxed evening with conversation. We're looking forward to another night out there!

I am compelled to leave an honest and disappointing review…read more As with many in the area at graduation, we were looking for a place to have a great meal and we were excited to learn about a steakhouse that was super attentive and provided quality and well cooked meals. We were extra excited by what seemed to be their signature dish, steak and mashed potatoes. Well, we had an 8pm reservation, which to me is normal time, but seems to be like a last seating for this restaurant. The place was full upon entering but emptied out quickly during our meal experience. It was just our immediate family of 4. Started with cocktails and proceeded to order the seafood trio app, which was good. Wedge salad, which was also good. Had a nice waitress who had a good sense of humor. The rest went downhill. We all ordered different types of steaks and 3 of 4 medium rare, one NY Strip medium. Ordered a side of Brussel sprouts and some other accompanying sauces. All 3 steaks came out in variations of well done - gross! On an even more disappointing note, we were told there is no more mashed potatoes, which is why we chose this place, and then told only 2 baked potatoes, so we had to decide who gets it and who doesn't. A TERRIBLE thing to happen at a steak restaurant, in addition to ruining what seemed to be quality steaks. The Brussel sprouts came out overly well done drenched in their sauce. Bite into any of them and they were totally deflated and not good. We couldn't even eat it. The waitress came back and asked how things were... my wife's fillet was so over cooked the waitress even agreed and offered to remake. By this time it was almost 9:15 and she lost her appetite. The three of us just didn't mention how ours were because it would have just caused chaos that none of us wanted. We NEVER send back food, but in this case, hers was insanely overcooked. We asked to have it removed from the bill, which they did. Regardless, we dropped $430, including a $70 tip (because I am generous... waitress should have done a lot more for us when noticing the quality of what was served to us) for the 4 of us, with only 3 main meals. Just a real poor experience. I'm hoping this was just an isolated happening, but completely upset it happened to us for my daughter's graduation, son's 25th Bday and our 27th Anniversary. All that weekend. Advice to owner: please ensure you have enough product for your reservations. We were not walk-ins. Then, listen to the customer's request for how they prefer their steaks to be cooked and serve as ordered. 8pm reservation should not make a difference from a 6pm. I'm just really disappointed and wish we went to Ts instead, but liked the idea of smaller and more intimate.

When my son's game at a local indoor center ran over by almost 30 minutes, I called and told them we would be late. They accommodated us and seated us immediately upon arrival. About 10 minutes later, at 8pm, the live music started. It was wonderful music, but where we were seated was in front of the speakers and two of our party wear hearing aides. When it looked like we were going to have to cut our celebration short, our server, the wonderful Marcy, and another gentleman, worked to get us seating in the lower dining room in front. We were so grateful for the accommodations, and everyone was super nice about it. The food and drinks were outstanding, of course. Our party ordered the chicken bowl, the chippy chicken, the curd burger, a cheeseburger, and the turkey avocado. Everyone was silent as they ate! The service was friendly and impeccable (even when we really weren't being easy customers), and our night, which could have gone south so quickly, was made! And hopefully a younger, hipper crew moved into our table and enjoyed the wonderful music! The band was great and we really enjoyed it still from where we ended up! So cheers to the staff at AG! We will be back (and know where to ask to sit next time! Haha)!!
