The menu has something for everyone, whether you're looking for a fresh salad, an incredible sandwich, or a hearty meal. I highly recommend the Greek salad and any of their sandwiches, the bread is unbelievably light, fresh, and delicious. The service is always quick and friendly, the restaurant is spotless, and it's just as great for takeout as it is for dining in. Madison Bistro will not disappoints and is an absolute must-visit!

All of the food we ate were new items on the menu and each one was EXCELLENT! We would definitely order them again. Delicious and filling!! The service in both places was attentive and friendly.

We always enjoy Meiers Creek and always leave saying that we need to eat and drink there more often.

Meier's Creek in Cazenovia is just a gorgeous property and an all around awesome experience…read more There's so much more to it than just stopping in for a good local beer. The main indoor bar is beautiful, but there's also a downstairs cellar with its own bar and a completely different vibe and then there's the outdoors areas. It took us a while to figure out how everything worked, but there's actually several options for food and drinks. You can order certain food from the indoor bar and bring it outside, then there's a separate sit-down menu for dining at a table indoors/on the patio, and then at 3 PM an outdoor shack opens with its own day-specific menu where you can also grab drinks to bring to any of the picnic tables. For dining outside there is a patio, but there's also picnic tables on the grass. I actually preferred the picnic tables. It made for a great environment to just hangout. They also have games like cornhole and frisbee golf, and live music. It was really a cool experience and it was only made better by the terrific weather. This place feels so polished without losing the relaxed brewery feel. And it's just that, first and foremost, a brewery. I love their Floatin' On By pilsner, but this time I had Oktoberfest, because, well, ''tis the season. And yes, it was GREAT. As far as the food it was a little better than good overall. I really enjoyed the Old Bay chips, the smoked wings were great, and so were the fries. The lobster roll wasn't anything extraordinary, but I hadn't had one in a long time and it definitely scratched that itch. Overall, this is just a really cool spot. Great beer, beautiful property, plenty of different places to hang out, live music, games, and solid food. It feels like somewhere you could easily spend a few hours rather than just stop in for a drink. Absolutely a must visit when in Cazenovia.

I've heard good things about this place so when we were heading to Sylvan Beach and I saw the sign…read moreI knew we had to stop in for lunch. They were just opening when we stopped. Our server was so friendly and helpful and we had a great time talking with her. I got the Hog Heaven Duo -2 meats and 2 sides and corn fritters. I got brisket, ribs, Mac n cheese and whipped sweet potatoes. The ribs were smokey and delicious with just the right amount of pull to get them off the bone. While the brisket had good flavor, it was cut too thin. Most of the slices were a bit dry. The bbq sauce helped and I loved the flavor, not too vinegary and not too sweet... very nice. The Mac n cheese and whipped sweet potatoes were excellent. I'm definitely going back for more.

Family owned and family run…read more Place is 7 months old, met the owner...very down to earth and likable guy. Pay tribute to Debbie's diner, the previous name before new management took over and they pay their respects to that well. "Freedom" runs this new place and overall it was a great experience. We ordered several flavors of wings and the garlic parmesan wings were FANTASTIC. Had them all smoked and then fried...meat fell right off the bones and were very good. They didn't skimp with that pre-made shaker cheese...these were slabs of melted parm with garlic, everything is homemade at this place. The other flavor of wings we had were hot/bbq mix, a white sauce and a southern spicy one which was too bad but the garlic/parm stole the show and wished we had more of those. We will probably just get a single order of the garlic parm next time. The other flavors need a bit more in order to contend with the garlic parm. Bacon wrapped jalapeños were very good! Wish we could have tried the fried green tomatoes but they were sold out. Smashed potatoes with gravy were really good, the Mac salad was so-so...needs more salt and was a little bland. Place is always pretty busy when I drive by and glad I was able to finally try this place out. Prices are VERY fair for a BBQ place which is a nice bonus. Ambience is calm and fun lots of decorations on the wall to check out too. Definitely a summer and biker atmosphere. Overall a very nice addition to the area and it's family owned and operated. Everyone was very friendly. I noticed someone mentioned the smoke in the place from the smokers, it's a BBQ joint so not sure what to expect with that but the smoke wasn't bad at all when we went.

Stopped here for lunch after seeing the reviews on Yelp for delicious and local flavors. It was…read morevery cute and cozy inside with people hanging out and enjoying lunch. When I read over the reviews, everyone raved about their baked goods - so of course I ordered the bread pudding in addition to a rosemary chickpea salad with grilled chicken. The salad was like a take on Thanksgiving stuffing with chickpeas. It was good a little thick but has good flavor. The grilled chicken did not have any flavor to it but once mixed into the salad it was good. The stand out for me was definitely the bread pudding. It had layers of fresh apples in between and was very moist. I really enjoyed this and even cold it was still very delicious. They mentioned to me that the apples were from a local farm, which I loved. Definitely recommend checking out the baked goods for sure.

Did not get a refill, not sure if they're offered. The place is small and I would say that was the only thing that made it a bit wonky to walk around. One customer gave me a glaring side eye when I walked past her table twice- I know! How dare I do that!? You order at the counter and a number tower card is given to place on your table. Food was brought out quickly. I would go back to try something else.

The wines were good - a little on the sweet side but the Rose Shimmer and the La Crescent was nice - and paired well with the two delicious pizzas we got.

The tasting room was bustling but not over crowded. All the staff were super nice and the chef even came out to check in on us. Really loved our experience and will return the next time we are in the area.

Why can't I give 10 stars??…read more This restaurant is OUTSTANDING! I don't use that word often, but if ever a place deserved it, this place does. From the staff, the cleanliness, and decor ... and then there's the food!! We started with the fried meatballs - crispy on the outside, soft on the inside - not slathered in sauce, but served with roasted red peppers and pesto. I had the Tuscan salmon, my husband had the veal Marsala. My salmon was, again, crispy on the outside, perfect in the middle. Served with spinach and cannolini beans. My husband's veal was better than he's ever had anywhere (we're originally from NJ - the Italian food capital!). Tender and not overly sweet, which makes other versions taste like they use supermarket Marsala wine. Hanah was our server. Beyond kind, told us about the restaurant and other places to visit in Utica. Charles, owner, came out to welcome us. His sons are two of his chefs. Rare when an owner does that! Can't wait to go back. In the meantime, I'll be enjoying the sauce they make themselves and sell in Hannaford and Market 32. Do not pass by!!

My ONLY comment is that sandwich needed some sauce or something... it was kind of dry. It just felt like it was missing something. If I could suggest like a honey glaze or something...? The balsamic just, I dunno... didn't work for me with the chicken. It was still good, just missing something. Atmosphere: It's divey inside, with "Success Kid" on the wall and other decor. It's cool and it's off the beaten path too, right in between, I think, a big apartment complex. I probably would have missed it if it weren't for Google Maps haha! Price: Not bad at all; sandwich, tea and soup ran me about $30. Decent price and everything on the menu seemed about the same. Service: No complaints on the service, except that I didn't have napkins at first, but then the server brought some out. It was pretty busy for being a Wednesday night. Overall: It's a solid place, great for a quick sandwich that is unique! But I wasn't floored... again, some sort of something in the sandwich but I can't really put my finger on it. I would come back again to try more of the sandwich types if I'm ever in the area.
