Delmonico’s Italian Steakhouse affords Utica diners that want a real challenge the opportunity to give a 24-ounce certified Angus Delmonico steak an attempt. The 16-ounce center cut New York sirloin is nothing to sneeze at either. Not just large, the steaks are full of flavor with perfect seasoning and seared to perfection. The menu at Delmonico’s Italian Steakhouse doesn’t end there, however. Chicken is also well represented at Delmonico’s Italian Steakhouse with dishes such as chicken Sinatra, chicken prosciutto, chicken marsala and chicken riggies. The classics like shrimp scampi, veal parmigiana and lasagna are all available as well. Dessert options such as the homemade cannoli and amaretto cheesecake finish off the meal perfectly.

A TASTE OF TRADITIONThe original Carmella's Cafe, located in New Hartford, New York, opened in 1985. Our goal was to provide our guests with the warmth, charm and quality of a local "Mom & Pop" restaurant with the consistency and controls of a well managed chain. Homemade soups, sauces, pasta, bread served by warm friendly, caring servers was the essence of our business. Our people have to demonstrate an "I care about you" attitude in order to work at Carmella's. We never intended it to be a fancy place... just a place where people of all ages could find good food value and fun in a casual, friendly surrounding! We are now re-dedicating our efforts to those original ideas and are committed to providing our guests with a great experience based on fresh, well prepared food served by people who really care. We invite you to enjoy our best food and service, and please let us know how we're doing

Choose either the dining room with its classic red-and-white checked tablecloths, or the casual charm of indoor patio seating near the fountain rotunda. Both serve the same delicious menu that blends “old world” and “new world” Italian specialties -- our homage to northern Italy and its rustic, hearty comfort food. Bar Pino, adjacent to the restaurant, offers a comfortable setting to sip some vino while waiting for your table, or before or after a show.

    The BEST Haddoc Oreganata I have ever had! Instead of it swimming in butter and lemon, it has a delightful lemon aioli drizzed perfectly over the top. The parmesan risotto compliments the dish perfectly.

     Since opening a year ago, we have probably been to Romans no fewer than 20 times and have never been disappointed. The service, food and ambience who’s outstanding. The Wednesday raw bar in the summer has the best raw clams and oysters I’ve ever had.

    We visited on a Monday night in October at 6 pm so noise level was a very comfortable level. We started with a dry martini, bourbon on the rocks and a flight of Mezcal. Bartender came tableside to pour the flight and chat about the Mezcal. Delish! Also delish was the filet dinner, the rare tuna entree and the shrimp tacos. (The two tacos were meant to be an app but were plenty as a main). Server offered to add another taco to ‘beef it up to entree portion’ (thank you for offering Kyle) but it was perfect as is. We had a great night with fabulous meals. I’d definitely go back next time we’re in Utica.

    We were promptly seated and our dining options were explained. Placing our orders for cocktails, starters and main courses, our selections were provided quickly but giving us enough time to enjoy each entree. We found the restaurant quiet enough to converse easily as it filled quickly with other patrons. Our wait staff was attentive and efficient. We enjoyed our meal and will consider returning.
