Best Comfort Food Restaurants in Utica

An exceptional experience from start to finish! The decor at 220 Merrill is modern and inviting, creating a relaxed yet upscale atmosphere. The dishes were beautifully presented and packed with flavor. The seafood pasta was a standout, and the dessert selection was decadent. The staff really knows how to make you feel special, and they made our celebration even more memorable. Highly recommend!

Service was really good. Forget the servers name, but really friendly. Food was just as hood. Pretzel Nugs are a good start.

Presley’s never disappoints with the quality of their food and drinks. Be prepared to wait quite a while for both, with or without a reservation. I’ve been here 6 times in the past year and each time food took 40-50 mins to be served after ordering. The drinks are awesome, they have an espresso martini machine and they are delicious. Enjoy!!

Beautiful old building is worth the trip, particularly right next to Michigan Central which is lit up festively for the season, but the food was great too - we got fried cheese, pretzel and dip, and tri-dip apps and it was before 6 so we got happy hour prices. All of them were excellent. Entrees included fish n chips, salads, and pasta and we all joined the clean plate club with them. Would definitely recommend if visiting the train station or Senate Theater.

Everything was great! Our Brussels sprouts appetizer, Cajun pasta, and shrimp and grits were all amazing!
