Service, food, and ambiance 5/5…read more The seafood appetizer was expertly prepared. In my experience, it is quite common to have swordfish served overcooked and tough. Not here! The swordfish was out of this world- tender, succulent, & well spiced. Even the saffron rice it was served upon was lovely. Hubby enjoyed the cracker crusted app pizza, as well. The wagyu burger was quite possibly the best burger I have ever enjoyed. Even the gluten free bun was, (dare I say), a stand out. Hubby's wagyu was served on a "normal" bun which he said was outstanding as well. It is called a Grown up Happy Meal. Finally, the truffle fries were prepared in what appeared to be in the classical, French way, that is, like pomme frites. The only down side to these fries was that I may not ever be able to go back to normal fries. Yes, that good. And served with aioli- my favorite. This dining experience was fantastic. Great friendly guests, too!

Perfect for family dinners, date nights, large, or small groups. Our waitress was very helpful and friendly. She really took my food allergy serious, which I truly appreciated. She made sure that she double checked with me on certain items to ensure that I received exactly what I wanted. The drinks were delicious & refreshing! Absolutely loved the green tea shots. I ordered the lamb chops, medium. They were very juicy and tender. However, they did need just a little bit more seasoning. Overall, delicious meal. I definitely will go back.

The ambiance is inviting and intimate...the perfect spot for a date night or outing with friends. We skipped their famous pretzel bread and started off with the GF Thai Lettuce wraps as an appetizer which was delicious especially with the 3 different sauces they were served with. The peanut sauce was my favorite....rich, savory, and slightly sweet similar to a satay sauce. I had the Sangria wine flight and loved all the four flavors....tropical, fruity and sweet. For my entree i had the shrimp & scollop risotto and it was just ok. The shrimp and scallops were cooked and seared perfectly but the risotto tasted a little dry. I had the same dish at the Troy location and it was covered in a flavorful sauce and was not dry. I left most of it unfinished and chose not to tell the server about it, but was disappointed. Thank goodness for ordering an appetizer! My friend had the Dana's Parmesan Chicken and said it was exceptionally delicious. Our server gets an A+ for making sure we enjoyed our meal. He was attentive, made great recommendations and checked in with us throughout. However when I go to the Troy location, we are always offered to sample the featured wine of the month before ordering our drinks and wasn't here. I don't even know what the feature wine of March is because it wasn't even mentioned by our server. Overall, a lovely dinning experience but this wasn't the 5+ star rating the Troy location has in comparison.

Well, I'll raise you 1.2 for 5 stars for Host!! Ample street parking on a Wednesday morning in Utica (also public on south side), hubby & I walked past a few businesses and into Host and immediately somehow felt we'd been elevated! The ambience is edgy and elegant giving off an elite vibe matched by the informative attentive staff and everything that was set before us. The barista approached us immediately taking our latte orders from a versatile coffee menu, and our lovely waitress Bailey didn't miss a beat welcoming us, fielding questions and sharing the restaurant's cool concept of "Host"-ing new chefs bimonthly representing freshly-curated menus of palate delights. She later informed us of classes held on 2nd floor for making cocktails and sushi! While enjoying our lovely lattes, we quickly ordered veggie omelets with mushroom and bacon additions that were timely served and clearly plated with care. My husband noticed there were no salt & pepper shakers anywhere, signifying the chef's confidence in his dishes! And indeed our meals needed no help, as we savored each bite of perfectly cooked omelets bursting with flavor complimented by crisp sliced potatoes dressed in a lemon drizzle. Easily the best omelet I've had in my hometown, probably in my state! I made sure to compliment the chef through the open pass-through kitchen on our way out after lingering after our meals not wanting to rush out of this lovely place. What a beautiful start to the day; we can't wait to return with more family!! Thank you for "Host"-ing us!!

My only complaint is that I went in to pickup an order today and noticed at least two guys in the kitchen with no gloves on. For the record the guy working closest to the front did have on black gloves. One of them looked to be cutting food and touched his forehead, that's how I was able to see. That was nasty and really disappointing to see given that he's handling someone's food. Total turn off for me.

If you want pancakes that are perfectly fluffy and melt in your mouth, this is the place to get them. The food came fast, but was a much, much higher quality than "fast food".

It's a little dark inside but the big front windows let light in. We chose the sit at the U shaped bar and met our bartender, Shelby. She was a lovely guide helping us newbies choose beers, wine, and food. It was happy hour which gave us a small discount on beers and the breadtzels. I sampled a few beers and started with an orange sangria. Was a little sweet for me. Went back to the watermelon lime cream ale which was better. Happy to learn none of their cream ales contain lactose. She recommended the breadtzels which were tasty. Even offered to remove the butter if I wanted. There wasn't much on the menu that was plant based so good thing I didn't come there to eat. Excited to come back and try more of their creations. Thanks for the friendly welcome and great service Shelby!

Beer is also really good. love the Alaskan Sister Wit. Super easy to drink. The service has always been friendly. It feels like a place with a lot of regulars, which gives it a welcoming, neighborhood kind of vibe. The space itself could use a little love. It's a bit outdated, kind of dark inside, and the tables are usually a little sticky. They also close off some tables later in the evening, even when it's not that busy, which can be confusing. Still, we keep coming back. The food and drinks are good, and the staff is kind. Just hoping they give the place a little refresh to match the good stuff coming out of the kitchen and taps.
