Top 10 Recommended Lunch and Dinner Take-Outs in Utica Area – Jeff’s Picks
If you don't love to cook or don't have time to make meals for yourself or your family, check this list out. Coronavirus restrictions and all, many of us would still rather grab a meal from one of these local favorites.
In no particular order, here's a look at some of my go-to, to-go restaurant's for lunch or dinner in the Mohawk Valley:
Click on each restaurant for a link their Facebook page, hours of operation and daily specials
A great atmosphere to take in a game, a beer and a meal! For now, enjoy the beer and meal at home. I'm a huge fan of their version of the Cubano - Ham, Pulled Pork, Pickles and Mustard! And, try it with their Sweet Potato Fries.
Also recommend: Salmon Salad. Fresh and delicious. I pair mine with the Honey Mustard dressing. It's perfect!
Also, excellent burgers and dinner entrees.
Off the beaten path, but well worth it.
A multi-time award winner for a phenomenal Rack of Ribs - Tender and Tasty! Half-rack or Full.
And, their Friday night Fish Fry is oversized, and comes with a serving of french ries AND mac-n-cheese AND cole slaw! A lot of food.
They're probably already on YOUR list of favorites, too! I didn't need to remind you. Healthy and always satisfying.
Grab a lunch order to go, or bring home a hearty meal to share with your family.
So many options and platters to choose from. You probably already have a favorite, and that's the one I'll recommend. Enjoy!
I know, the first thing you thought was: Wings! And since you mentioned it, you should try their 'Everything' sauce. Their version is one of the best around.
But they're good at a lot more than wings. Their delicious Angry Irishman is highly recommended - Pastrami, Corned Beef, Long Hots and Cheddar Cheese - BANG!.
Feeling Irish, but not angry? Take a Reuben with your choice of Corned Beef, Turkey or Pastrami.
Craving a Fish Fry but don't wanna wait until Friday? Then don't.
Babes at Harbor Point offers a big and tasty Fish Fry 7-days a week for just $7.99! And, have you seen their family bundle meals? They start at $25 (feeds 2) and includes salad, choice of appetizer and entree - plus a bottle of red wine (SHUT UP!).
They also have family menu packages for groups of four or six!
A long-time favorite for classic Italian dishes! Can't go wrong at the Spaghetti Kettle.
But how about something a little different this time?
Firehouse Chicken - Chicken covered in a homemade spicy Mushroom Marinara Sauce, served over a bed of Italian Greens. Yup!
I smell a new favorite from The Kettle!
Don't be deceived when you see 'coffee house' in their name. Copperccino's offers waayyy more than a good cup of coffee!
Their dynamic menu is loaded items made fresh and local, daily. Especially their desserts and cookies. While this a great stop for coffee and something sweet, grab one of these is you're for something different:
Truffle Chicken Salad Sanwich on artisan bread: Chicken, Celery, Grapes and Cranberries. Or, The Hathaway Grill - white New York Cheddar, New York Provolone, Shallot Jam and Dijon Mustard.
If you've had a fresh slice Lukin's Brick Over Pizza you already know theirs is one of the best around!
But, if you're thinking outside the pizza box...
For $39, get a half tray of Chicken Franchaise, a half tray of Chicke Riggies and a House Salad. Made fresh and delivered hot to your doorstep! And, they're open 7-days a week.
Thank You!
Take a little drive to Little Falls. Not a chance you'll regret.
New family style offerings for pick-up or delivery.
I'll recommend the baked Penne Pasta with Sirloin Bolognee, plus Tomato Ragu, with Buffalo Mozzerall and Basil. Mmmmm!
Try it or find your own favorite, paired with some classic apps, like Frisée Petal Shrimp and Calamari Friture.
Grab slices to-go for just $1.25 on Mondays and test one of pizza and deli classic subs!
And, for dinner you'll feed the family with a knock-down, carry-out-deal!
1 Large topping pizza + 1 Small topping pizza + 1 Large antipasto + 20 Bone-in wings + 20 Boneless wings!
All that to feed the family and it's only $40!
Not kidding!
