The terrace Cafe is extraordinary! The food exceeded all and any expectations, the flavors went together deliciously and my husband's burger was beyond perfection. The lemon bars we had for desert were absolutely heaven in your mouth. The host and server were both incredibly kind, professional and very helpful. I definitely recommend this Cafe, in fact I recommend it 100 times over! Absolutely amazing food and wonderful service. We are so happy we stumbled across this hidden gem 💎 ❤

Our Altar Rosary Society had a tea @ Terrace Cafe today. Dylan was so very helpful when planning the tea. The food was wonderful and service was great. The staff was so kind and friendly, everyone enjoyed the tea so much. Thank you so much to Dylan and staff. I highly recommend the Terrace Cafe you will love it. Thank you again. Bea Allison

Great lunch after visiting an outstanding local museum. The cafe serves light fare in a relaxed environment. Dillon my waiter, was enthusiastic and knowledgeable. This cafe is a gem and a visit while at the museum is highly recommend.

Amazing restaurant! A true hidden gem! Check out the museum next door and come here for lunch - both are totally worth it. The nicest service and incredible food.

I hosted a surprise party for 26 guests for my parents 50th anniversary party and between the venue, the food and the guests it was a 5+star night. Nicole from the catering company was absolutely one of the best event planners I’ve ever worked with. The prices were totally reasonable but I’m used to NYC and San Franciso prices where a bowl of gluten free vegan water will run you 12.99. The portions were HUGE and you guessed it, the age demographic for a 50th anniversary party were so thrilled to have lunch for tomorrow and maybe even the next day (said with thick upstate NY accent). Dylan the head server and Catherine and their bartender were so sweet and playfully refreshing. I can’t remember the bar tenders name but since I happened to make several bar visits I learned his whole life story but not the name. The venue was incredibly accommodating and allowed us to fill the room with memories and moments from 50 beautiful years together. I can’t believe I never went there once growing up in the area, but then again, tractor races and franks and Mario’s pizza were more in for the times. I didn’t find my love of art until I left CNY. Shocking. I can’t wait to go back in the summer to wine, dine, more wine on the terrace after the 10 month arctic deep freeze lifts, and then go pretend I’m a curator from the “big city” secretly judging the art. Until then, terrace cafe is just a cafe. But a beautiful one at that.

Get the Filet! Ask about daily specials and soup. Waiter Dylan is the best server in Utica. See if Chef Bill can make you sweet potato fries.

Amazing lunch! Reasonable prices and unbelievable food. Perfect little secret downtown.

Go to this place!! It’s giving French cafe vibes. The food… omg! Delicious! Surrounded by smooth jazz music and art, the terrace cafe is the perfect place to wind down and enjoy a peaceful evening with loved ones. 10/10! Will come back for more 😍

This wonderful Utica treasure provides the best chef and service. My recent luncheon with visiting family provided true haute cuisine. Quiet and comfortable ambiance.

Very nice place for lunch, wish they did dinner and had a liquor license.

Quiet yet gorgeous atmosphere. Affordable Gourmet dining that is family friendly. Wait staff was very polite. Will be returning for more chocolate mousse😍

Lovely little cafe. Plenty of tables. Variety of salad/ sandwich options on the menu. Food was fresh and tasty. Server was attentive and very engaging. Prices reasonable.

Outstanding food at very reasonable prices. You won't find menu items like these anywhere else. The chef is a real treasure. Covid compliant at all times.

Great food and service. A hidden jem.
