Reviews for Ventura's in Utica, NY
We had lunch at Ventura's after seeing a recommendation from someone else. It was absolutely fantastic! The staff were... extremely courteous. The food was absolutely delicious! I feel ignorant that I lived in the area and have never been here. What a great meal along with a wonderful experience. I had Veal Scaloppine and my bride had Chicken Cacciatore. We also hadgreens as an appetizer. Ventura's will be a regular stop for us. Read more
A "go to" place when you are in Utica. Menu has anything you want with an emphasis on true Italian food. Some of the best... Italian food in the entire area. Four of us had drinks and dinner (steaks, lamb chops and Italian dishes and Utica style greens)Love this place. Read more
Ventura's is a very elegant restaurant. The food though, is not great. Don't get me wrong, the presentation is very lovely...... but the food itself is dry and not pleasing whatsoever. It was my mother's birthday, so after we ate, she had got the chocolatelava cake. DISAPPOINTING. It was tiny, dry, flat as a pancake, and had NO FILLING. Never coming back. Read more
Fantastic food, great atmosphere and beyond good service. I'd go as far to say it's the best Italian restaurant in Utica. In... the same family for 80 years. A must go place to eat . Read more
Absolutely perfect. From first bite to last. Every single dish (stuffed mushrooms, salad, baked potato, filet and broiled... halibut) was excellent. Everything was fresh, delicious and beyond expectation. Great service and atmosphere. Must eat againand again. Read more
Great friendly service and server. The escargot was great, I prefer a more garlicky sauce. The riggies were probably the best... I have had in the area. Great flavor profile on the sauce. Sausage was also very good. I?m calling the tomato sauce ok. Stuffed shells were good. Read more
