Best Restaurants for Business Meals in Utica

My husband and I have dined here in the past and have always enjoyed it. We’ve enjoyed the lobster bisque, oysters, and various entrees like the salmon dishes several times but this is the first time that we’ve been here for Thanksgiving dinner. This was kind of a last minute reservation so all that was available for our party of 6 was high top seating. I’d never sat in that section so I wasn’t sure how comfortable it would be but there was no reason to have had any worries. It was quite comfortable. Some of us opted for the plated Thanksgiving dinner. I’ll admit I’m not a big fan of turkey but I ordered it anyway. It was the best I’ve ever had at a restaurant. It was juicy and flavorful and came with tasty traditional sides. Last year we went to a restaurant that’s considered very upscale and cost twice as much but this was much better. The service was great. I didn’t get our waiter’s name since I missed it and didn’t see it on the bill otherwise I’d call him out for being personable and attentive. When our plates were presented, additional wait staff helped our waiter so that all plates were presented at once. I highly recommend DFH for an evening out or for a special occasion and will consider returning next Thanksgiving.

Our first thought for a pre game brunch. We love the eggs Benedict- simply the best- and the rest of the menu is great! Service is fantastic. Billy is such a great host and rep for the restaurant. It’s lively and fun with a great location. A gem in downtown Detroit

I met with an old friend at Da Francesco today, and it was perfect reunion. We had excellent service, delicious food and enjoyed a beautiful holiday ambience

Our advice is: dont put too much effort on deciding, as everything is absolutely amazing! We've been coming here everytime we came to Detroit since 2022 and we've seen our share of new dishes everytime... and tried them. No regrets whatsoever!

Everything as usual was perfect except that the wait person helping our waiter was much too eager to clear the table while one of the women in our party was still eating. He should know that you do not remove plates or silverware until all in the group are finished eating. He attempted to take her plate 2 times before she was finished.
