    Chicken quesadilla
    Amanda Z.

    Most of the good things I have to say about this establishment owe to it simply being a comedy club. They often have comics and performers that I am excited to see, and I enjoy their shows. The venue itself leaves much to be desired. The servers were polite, but service tended to be slow and inconsistent. The food was decent, but the prices were outrageous. A burger was $17, and you had the option to add fries for an extra $8. There also were no free refills on soft drinks. The alcoholic drinks were decent, but nothing too exciting.

    All right, each time we've gone we've had five people with us. Both experiences were absolutely different. In 2023, The first time we went. We had a 4 people at a table with and two person table added for the extra. Was comfortable. The waitress was absolutely wonderful. We were probably about 1/3 of the way from the stage. Drinks were extremely weak!!!!! Comedian was funny! In 2024, 2nd time we went, it was horrible!!! Again 5 people. We seen Chris Rock. They started on time. Waitress did not show up until halfway through the show. she seemed like she was overwhelmed when she came. I didn't give her a hard time because of it. Sad another waitress had asked if we were served yet. Thankful that someone was paying attention to us... We were uncomfortably against the back wall in the back. They ended up putting people at our table that we did not know, and they were so disgusting, smelt horrible, rude, loud and obnoxious. My chair was broken. I ordered a chicken quesadilla, it was good... and french fries which it had pepper on... who put pepper on french fries!?!? Which was weird. I did not ask for that. Our table had 3 Long Island iced teas, and they're very weak. 2 Beers. Apparently they were fine but Long Island Ice-Tea's were incredibly week.. I was extremely disappointed with this visit, and I just don't think I'll ever go back, even though the first visit was great...

    The Funny Bone Comedy Club and Restaurant opened its 19th location in Destiny USA, and it is cutting it up with touring comics Thursday through Sunday nights, plus a wild-card night -- open-mic night, for example -- on Wednesdays. The 360-seat comedy club is on the third level of the expansion of the Syracuse mall. That's the region of Destiny that is pumping up the entertainment options, including Pole Position Raceway and OptiGolf. I've been here a couple times for shows I wanted to see and a couple shows I was offered free tickets for. The space itself inside is very nice. Bigger than you expect it to be, nice little stage, plenty of tables and seats. I've enjoyed the shows I've seen, from Jake the Snake to Josh Sneed, most recently. Prices are usually pretty fair on tickets, and if you fill out a comment card, you can win free tickets, as I did. The food is alright, nothing great. Some people think the foods a little pricey, but I think it's pretty comparable to most restaurants. Servers are always very kind and courteous. I find it to be a good value for nice little date night out, and I'll definitely check out some future shows.

    I got an invitation to come to a show at funny bone with a friend who received some free tickets to a show, something I have heard from other folks that patron this establishment pretty frequently tells me happens a lot. And I wondered how they could work that seeing funny bone from the outside in the mall its a nice looking bar area and such but it didn't look like it was all that large. But much like a TARDIS, this place is way bigger on the inside than I would have expected and can probably seat close to 200 people in a large showroom, the stage isn't all that large compared to a lot of other places I have seen stand up and the tables are at a 90 degree angle to the stage which is a bit awkward to always look at a sideways glance at the stage. Naomi and I decided we were going to get some appetizers as neither one of us were superbly hungry and since it was a free night out we were trying to avoid spending a ton of money. Something that apparently isn't an easy task here, I tend to drink a soda when I'm out and the only way you can get free refills here is if you buy one of their odd half pint glasses, which makes a soda 7$ to get free refills. I got an order of potato skins with pulled pork on top which wasn't the best I had ever had but not terrible either and she got some fried pickles which for some odd reason came with honey mustard, a condiment I have never tried with pickles which just made the whole thing weird All in all, it was a fun night out the comedians were entertaining and this place does book some decent talent from the advertisements I see around town and hear on the radio. The free tickets definitely hook people into the door and for a "free" night out I ended up spending 30$ on a few apps and drinks. Which in my opinion is a bit pricey. But if you want a unique thing to do on a night out I wouldn't be remiss to recommend this to someone, just make sure you bring your wallet.

    Watch out - the drinks are strong! "Loosened Tie" in a souvenir glass

    From the box office to the bar and from the bouncers to the waitstaff, my first experience at Funny Bone was a positive one! I've never been to a comedy club in general, so I didn't know what to expect. This national chain certainly knows how to put on more than just a good show. We started at the bar before entering the actual club. Drinks are pricey but strong; you can chose to have your drink served in a souvenir glass for $10. After being served by semi-efficient, not overly personable bartenders, our group of ten were escorted into the showroom. Our host accommodated our large group by seating us comfortably at adjacent tables. We were greeted immediately by a friendly server who took orders for more drinks and the Dip Trio, which consists of spinach artichoke, black bean and queso dips, served with tortilla chips. The appetizer turned out to be mediocre and didn't come with enough chips (we were charged for a refill - bummer). The show began with two opening acts; the first was local and the other from out of state. Both were entertaining and did well warming up the crowd. Loni Love was the main attraction; she was fantastic! Kudos to Funny Bone for bringing her to Syracuse. All the while the show was taking place, our server was very attentive. The timing and organization were spot on. Can't wait to go again!

    Beer recommendation: too many to list (That is a very good…read morething) A mix of very positive experiences muddled by the occasional menu item that shouldn't even bother be offered, this is a much appreciated redo of the World of Beer. A menu full of takes on classic American fare run through a different flavor profile, and it maintains the large and excellent beer selection of this spaces previous tenant. Take their menu, full of fusion into dishes like their garbage plate and flatbreads that feel unique in this area and still fit the expectation of the originals. Then there is the occasional misfire, like the vindaloo cheesesteak that looks like some premade microwaved slices on a bad roll. This has been pretty good, but if you find something like the cheesesteak, try something else. That's the weird part, for a place with excellent service, an amazing selection of beers, and an experience which places it well above other Destiny locations like Bullfinch and other generic options in the new expansion (it should always be a bad sign for a site when Cheesecake Factory is in the short list of better options to eat at like Karma and the wildly overrated Bullfinch); it needs to have a solid menu top to bottom, don't make us find out what things are crap. It's tough enough to handle the noise in there even when it isn't busy. Overall, really good spot, but a few changes to remove the dead matter will make this the only option in Destiny worth anything. ANYTHING. Do not settle, if you want food and/or beer at Destiny, this is the place

They still had Bullfinch's Dancing Lights on tap, which I really enjoyed during the holiday season so I ordered that as well as lemonade and waters. I ordered the nachos and my son had buffalo tandoori chicken tenders. The chicken tenders were the perfect combination of spicy and tangy. The nachos were good heaped with fresh ingredients including pickled onions and avocado ranch, the queso had some type of spice giving it a mustard like taste. I forgot to add the chicken! Service was good but on the slow side. Love the lively electric decor! I attended a Yelp event previously with Syracuse Trivia that was tons of fun! It looks like they have another trivia night that is family feud style, that would be a hoot! Large selection of brews and cocktails!

I didn't realize they had a different menu for lunch and dinner so I was pleasantly surprised to see some new options than what I am used to.

We were even 15 mins late and they were super nice about it and had no problem keeping our table for us. All the staff are very friendly and can give an answer to any question on the menu very quickly. I really do like everything about the preserve and will keep coming back!

It's the main side on half of the menu items. The artwork is really nice. It took 45 minutes to get an appetizer....not sure how that happens, as they were not that busy and there is literally 15 people back in the kitchen. I waited 30 minutes for food and figured I would work on this review for the next 15 minutes while I still wait for salads. My wings that I ordered did not get made until the server realized they were not coming. The salads were good, kids complimented a salad! The wings were good too, kids enjoyed those. They adjusted the bill for the delay to their credit. Probably will never come here again but the staff works really hard in the front of the house.
