    French toast special
    David P.

    Breakfast at Debbies today to continue the Giambotta tour of Utica. Seated promptly and the waitress was right there with coffee. Ordered a Giambotta with hot peppers (they offer a choice of hot, sweet or mixed peppers). We also ordered the French toast breakfast special. Food arrived quickly - well presented and the Giambotta had plenty of heat. Coffee had great flavor and waitress kept our cups full. Good food, great service.

    double shot of apple juice

    I had a lot of hype for debbie's cafe on my Utica (adjacent) diner tour. the coffee was good, giambotte very good, and the pancakes solid. the only The service was quality and i got free coffee refills. The only things i can really think that keep it from being a top notch diner were odd. First, the wife got a pancake special, which came with juice and the glass of juice was comically small. Pretty much a double shot. Just an odd choice in general, i mean apple juice is practically free so I'm surprised they couldn't jazz it up a little. Second, syrup packets. I don't know why I consider this such a cardinal sin, but particularly since upstate is maple country. I don't demand high end maple syrup but I'd certainly be fine shelling out another 50 cents on all pancake dishes for at least a bottle for the table. Weird choice. All in all though its pretty good diner that checks all the boxes.

    Farmers Skillet

    Came here for Mother's Day and it was packed, had to wait a couple of minutes to get a table. The cafe has a modern look to it, every table had a ballon for mothers days, which I thought was sweet. I ended ordering the farmer's skillet. It's a mix of bacon, ham, sausage, potatoes, and eggs. The food was great but the service was extremely slow. I waited for about 40 minutes to get the food. I guess the food made up for the slow service. I'll be back.

    Come to Debbie's cafe every so often when I'm in Utica with my girl friend visiting her family. Every time we come to breakfast it never disappoints. The food always comes to the table is a good time and is always cooked to perfection. I have had no issues with service and everyone is always so polite. It is our go to spot for breakfast anytime we go out! Always will come back for more!

    Went for breakfast on a summer Sunday morning as part of a group of 8. We had a round table in the outdoor dining. The round table made the whole group feel together. I had the Giambotte which was a new dish for me. I had the meat one with a mix of the sweet/hot peppers. Delicious. My husband had the Eggs Benedict and cleaned up his plate. One other person in our group had the veggie quesadilla. It was a generous portion and they did not finish it. The place was full of people enjoying a Sunday breakfast out. We will be back.

    Perhaps a better name would be "No-Allergy Samich Shop." It for sure is not a cafe: they have…read moreonly regular and decaf and it's not ready to go. There is a counter to the left as you come in, followed by an unattractive cooler case with signs on it. In between is a bakery case that is small but had a nice selection when I was there. I ordered a cup of decaf and a small chocolate almond cupcake, for a price of $8. I declined the plastic box and sat down with the cupcake in an upholstered chair opposite the counter. I thought my coffee would be right up but it took many minutes. I almost left. The cupcake was small but good (fluffy cake, sugary frosting). Then I noticed the sign that said everything was gluten and dairy-free. Surprise! When the coffee was ready, the cream was put in for me. I guess it was nondairy. The coffee was warm like a keurig makes. I had noticed Lunch menus in a wall pocket and Brunch menus behind the counter. So this place is actually full restaurant for people with gluten and dairy allergies. The lunches all seemed to cost ~$18 and seemed inventive. Fries were available as a specialty. There were a lot of tables in the long, cool, dark room. It seemed like a decent place to have an undisturbed meal while talking with friends.

    The food was absolutely phenomenal! While not from the area I always love finding gems in new…read moreplaces, this is one of them! We enjoyed the ambiance of the cafe especially all the beautiful greenery. The service was outstanding and everything was made to order. If you are searching and curious if this will be a great choice look no further because City Cafe is the best!
