Trattoria Calabria in Utica

What a great experience. A six-course fresh from scratch Italian meal. Dan was the chef, server, and entertainment. You never know what you will have. Dan serves whatever he decides to make but it's all delicious. Six of us went and with tax and gratuity it was $32/$33 per person. Fun night!

Can not wait until our next visit. Awesome food awesome atmosphere. Thank You

What a wonderful restaurant. The most unique dining experience I’ve ever had. Felt like I was eating at a relatives house. Danny is a wonderful host and a fantastic chef. Do yourself a favor and go enjoy this establishment.

Amazing experience. Great family style Italian and a truly unique establishment.

Danny is great, his food was wonderful with generous amounts. Atmosphere was comfortable and family style service. Came here with friends left feeling like family.

Loved the food and company!

I had my husbands 60th birthday party here last Friday night, what an amazing feast Danny prepared. Course after yummy course-- just wonderful. Will be back for sure!!!

Amazing food. If you go away hungry, it is your own fault. Great family atmosphere.

Best eggplant parmesan I have ever had!!

Danny is great. Food is amazing. I will be back

What a unique experience! If you're looking for an authentic dining experience, outside the mundane, look no further. Family style, home cooked Italian food served over several courses. You can taste the time and passion that went into each course. We were so lucky to get in for a Saturday night dinner service, while meeting the one and only, hospitable owner Danny! Call ahead, grab your beverage of choice and some good company. You won't be disappointed. Even the mint infused lemon iced tea was amazing!

A unique culinary experience. Priced very reasonably considering the quality and the extremely generous portions. Danny (your chef, server, joker, and all around amazing guy) will keep your plate full, a smile on your face, and ready to book a reservation again soon. Amazing Italian food cooked beautifully. Call and book ahead. Don't miss out. Thank you again Danny!

"Guy is crazy, the food is great!" If you are looking for good Italian, this is the spot!

Great value . Delicious multiple courses Worth the drive. Must call for reservationsBYOBWeekends only

It cool for something different, guy is a great host. Make sure to bring your own drinks!

Food was great 7 course meal for just $25.00 per person.

Great food and lots of it! Danny, the owner and chef makes sure you are having a good time. This is our second time and we'll go back again!

We had the most wonderful family meal for the third time! Danny’s preparation of food and his entertaining ways makes it so enjoyable.

Bring a huge appetite. Make sure you have about 2.5 hours to spare. The food is fantastic, and there is a lot of it. Being able to bring your own beer is nice! This place is great for larger groups. Both times I've been here I've thoroughly enjoyed it.

Absolutely amazing! Huge portions! Very friendly and very reasonable! Best Italian food I've ever had

Amazing experience

Absolutely amazing! Danny hosted 20 of us for dinner this evening and did a wonderful job. The food is just fantastic. It is true fresh Italian comfort food, something hard to find with all of the chains around. Be sure to come hungry and prepare to leave stuffed. I can't say enough good things about this place! We are already planning our next trip back.

Lots of great food. The muscles are to die for. Bring Tupperware for leftovers.

Bring your wine & sit down for a great meal & a great time.

I must say this is one of the best places to really enjoy an evening out with family or friends. Danny is the best Food was great and plenty of it!! Highly recommend to all...enjoy. !!

Just bring a bottle of wine or two and enjoy a down home Italian meal. Excellent

Incredible, well timed great portions, delicious Italian food from a wonderful entertaining host, a real gem!!!?

This was the best dining experience I have had in a long long time. The amount of food over 8 course, the equality .... tremendous!! And the you get the bill and it's how the hell can Danny pull this off for the cheap cheap price! Would be that much if you went to Burger King! The atmosphere /hospitality made me feel as if we were quests in his own house!! Love love love it!! Top notch!

Excellent food! Great place...we had a great time.

A unique experience unlike any other in Utica, everything about it great

Small place only seven tables ,no menu ,outstanding food ,just a man and his son , like going to grandmas only better. If you haven't been , go tomorrow.. can't wait to return .

Great food warm atmosphere

Excellent multi course meal. Gourmet delicate

Loved the food. The service was wonderful. This is a must do experience for groups.

This place is great! Dan, the owner, chef and entertainment is one special kind of person. Each time we go here it's like returning to a family member. No menus eat what he serves. Be prepared to take home your leftovers and I can assure you there will be leftovers. Bring your own wine he does not charge a corking fee. Just stitch back relax and enjoy a great dinner.

Danny is outstanding at what he does. A really unique and entertaining experience, aside from the food because absolutely delicious. You will not be hungry or sorry!

It would be nice to mention that you need reservations in advance to dine. Even though there were plenty of table available they do not accept walk-Ins or reservations unless they are made well in advance. Not welcome therefore to travelers looking to pull off the road to eat.

Amazing

Amazing food! Absolutely delightful host! A splendid evening!

If you like Italian food , and a seemingly endless supply of it you'll love it here. It is served in courses so plan on being there for about 2 hours. Danny is a great guy and very funny! For the price you pay it is VERY well worth it as you will have leftovers for another tasty meal.If you want wine with your dinner you have to bring it. Reservations are a must! Will be back!!

Unique dining experience, just like eating at home without any of the work. Will definitely be back.

Unbelievable! Great food, huge servings and a very funny owner. Danny is the best! We will be back.

Very unique and the only restaurant of it's kind in the area. Food is amazing as well as the experience.

Great Italian family style meal..lots of love and great food.

Loved the restaurant as well as the waiters

Portions were good-sized but not overpowering. A nice evening!

The best place for everyone who loves food and good company!

The food is hands down, the best in Utica! But don't spread the word... Keep this one of Utica's best kept secrets.

Excellent homemade fare, great service, and a terrific price for a seven course meal.
