PhotoBoothWithUs We are a photobooth company and we did a Holiday party there for a business on December 13, 2025. From the time we arrived to the time we left the staff treated us like family, from helping us move our equipment in and out of the building , to making sure we had something to eat. Just WOW! Thank you to all the staff, we cant wait to see you again. Steve and Tammy.

ELIZABETH WILLIAMS Wonderful farm to table restaurant thats connected to the cheese store next door. Food is great, dont miss the cheese plate. Its amazing, as is the homemade sourdough bread with unique butter spread. The main courses vary from day to day. The night we were there entrees ranged from short ribs, to a vegetarian pasta. Its a small place so can be tough to secure a reservation. Its totally unique, nothing like Ive ever experienced in Syracuse. If you are a foody who loves cheese dont miss this place.

Sam and Chau Cool place to hang out with friends or even get competitive on a date night! We had a blast here and the staff were awesome.They have really cool decorations and wall art. A very unique atmosphere and a great place to make friends/socialize. A ton of games to play at the bar and arcade games all around. The drink menu is really cool and has video game themed drinks. Will definitely be coming back!

Kaycee Gibbs Great food, fresh fish, great wine list superb service pricey but worth it!

Jeanette James So I always have the Salmon burger with extra sauce. I mustve devoured mine before I get a chance to take a picture but I did get a snap of my cousin grilled chicken burger instead

Arasely Rentas-santiago LM Social has such a great vibe and ambience the staff is amazing! Their blazing shrimp is phenomenal!! My husband had their steak and that was also great! Their smoked cocktails are out of this world!! & their Christmas decoration right now is so New York City like I just love the vibe. I will definitely be back! The staff is so so friendly!! My favorite part was everyone’s smiles And family like vibes.

Mark Olson This place is a hidden gem in the center of Syracuse NY. The sauce for the mussels was extraordinary and well thought out! The glaze on the salmon was exquisite. The salmon was cooked ro perfection. The atmosphere was quiet as it was a Wednesday. But very open and relaxing! The service was interesting. Isabella was my waitress. A young college student who just finished at a local community college and said she was considering continuing her education in business finance. I see nothing but success in this young girls future! She is professional, and appears to have a solid work ethic as well! If you are a local, give this place a try. And if you are traveling from out of town and staying in the hotel, you have a really good place to eat right downstairs! All the best Salt City Eatery and Isabella!!!

Mario Alex Gonzalez A great spot in Syracuse for a delicious steak dinner with lots of creative options. Their bread options are some of the best I’ve had- biscuits with incredible butter snd jam choices, spectacular. All the appetizers we got were simply so well made, and great choices. The coffee crust they offer on the steak was a very welcome deviation to the traditional steak flavor and was a super rich addition. Portions are large though so be prepared, but this spot is worth a stop for sure.

David This was the best hospitality we have ever had. The cook and chashier was super sweet to our kids making sure they had food they liked. The food was delicious and big portions. We had goat and chicken with unique rice it was so aromatic, you could smell jasmine as it cooked:). It was a differnt flavor palate,but in a great way, not so foreign that the average person couldnt enjoy it. and somosas were yummy with light curry. The hot green sauce were unique and so good on the rice. And my son and i loved the mango drink also. My kids liked the food also and they are under 5, but green sauce is to spicey for kids, otherwise not spicey food just yummy.

Erin Brennan My fiancé and I had our engagement party at Maxwells in their private event room. I honestly cant say enough how incredibly wonderful their staff is. Right from the start Maria was so accommodating and helpful. They made sure our night was about us. The food, drinks, and service were outstanding. From all the decorations, food displays, Photo Booth, lights, and all the little touches they did for us really made our night so special. We are so happy we chose to have our night there, it will be an amazing memory forever! If youre looking to just have dinner, drinks, or want to have a private event/party Maxwells is 100% the place to go to!

Grace R Great food and service! The atmosphere was nice, and the bread to start was amazing.

Giraldo Javier 10/10 Burger spot I’ll come back forever I got the bacon ranch burger and the chef let me add the fried onion rings onto it which is amazing you should try it. The guy who was serving me I can’t remember his name but him and the cook were super nice it felt like family treatment. Constantly checking up on us and making sure everything was perfect. If you want a good burger and a super friendly restaurant go here everytime
