Wonderful staff, very attentive. I had fried Calamari and Haddock sandwich for lunch. Big portions served hot. I recommend 72 Tavern & Grill to my family and out of town friends.

It’s a sports bar. Lots of TV’s. The menu in summer is much smaller it seems. Last time we were there they offered more items, so the menu doesn’t offer that many items. Food was pretty good. Service ok. Wouldn’t go out of my way to go back unless I was at the Auditorium for an event.

First time there. Really nice on the inside. Appetizer came really quick. Boneless wings were great. The 72 Burger was really good with crispy fries too. Took a bit longer than expected to get the food. Was worth the wait.

I have driven past the “72 Tavern & Grill” many times in my excursions through the city of Utica, but never took time to stop. This evening I was invited to meet some family members there for dinner. I accepted.

We had a reservation for Mother’s Day and arrived 10 minutes late because we have 4 children and it took longer than expected to get from church to lunch. The restaurant was completely bare, small number of guests, and yet they asked us to leave because their last reservation slot was 1:30 and they could not accommodate us since they were closing early. No personal care for the fact it was Mother’s Day or that we had four children that we just trucked in. I am local and have never tried 72 Tavern, and literally NEVER will now. The hostess was rude and extremely unpleasant. As someone who has close friends/family that are or have been restaurant owners, as well as someone who historically worked in the restaurant business in multiple fashions, all I can say is do better 72 Tavern.

I had a great experience here a few years ago and decided to make the mistake of coming back. Started off my adventure with an order of tenders, which turned out to be four lukewarm nuggets. My friends had ordered the chicken and waffles, the silver-dollar sized waffles would be okay if the meal wasn’t also $20. I got the breakfast burger, which was great and cooked to a perfect medium rare, however, I handed my soggy homefries to a manager that didn’t really seem to mind that it was an issue. I’ve also never seen a bar that didn’t offer drinks, though based on the rest of the prices I would have had to take a small loan out anyway.

My first time here. Non game night so it appeared they weren’t even open. The beer was completely flat and returned. Food choices were not anything to rave about and overpriced for what they were. Food tasted fine.

Really enjoyed this place. Roomy, lots of space. Many TVs to watch a variety of sports. Awesome location to hit up before a Utica Comets game. Wait staff was a little slow and didn’t have a very good draft beer selection. The $0.10 wing deal on Monday nights is amazing though.

Staff was nice, but food wasn’t good at all. The trash can nachos would be good if there were actual flavor in the queso. It’s grainy and flavorless. The BBQ chicken melt wasn’t a melt at all, it was a room temperature piece of chicken between rock hard bread. The French onion soup has me dehydrated from the amount of salt. I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone if you paid me. Very disappointing.

Some great food and plenty of options here. Portions are fine and most items are easy to share. Some decent vegetarian choices too. The draft beer selection needs to improve but that is about it. The staff has always been great. I would go again.
