I loved the intimate atmosphere of this restaurant, in a historic Syracuse building. The menu was diverse and included a vegan option (I understand their menu changes, but it seemed there was something for everyone from the choices presented). The beer and wine list was small, but also with a good range of options (no spirits due to location close to a church as per NYS law). Our appetizer and entrees arrived very quickly and our waiter was pleasant, professional, and attentive. The food was excellent with one exception- both of us noted that our food was not completely hot when it arrived. It was warmish. I ordered chicken bibimap, which could not really be re-heated because of the mix of fresh ingredients. Nonetheless it was delicious. I thought the prices were very fair for the quality of the food. The other cold factor was the restaurant itself. It was on the chilly side. I am naturally always cold, but I noticed a few other diners wearing their jackets throughout dinner, as I did. So turn up the temperature on all fronts and this would have been a 5/5 experience!

317 is the perfect spot for nice quiet dinner. Food is excellent. Small bistro feel. Highly recommend

Our first time here and we will return again. Great atmosphere in a cozy place. We had a rather long talk with our waitress who turned out to be the co owner. Parking might be a little tough on some nights.

Small menu but diverse choices. Several entrees had a half-order option, which I like. We shared poached pear salad which was quite good. Parsnip fennel soup was phenomenal. My husband liked his strip steak cooked to medium rare as ordered. I had a half-order of ravioli with a wonderful butternut squash sauce. Dessert - a raspberry cake - was fine. Coffee was hot and flavorful. Service was friendly, a little slow but the restaurant was quite full. We'll definitely be back. A nice experience.

One of our favourite restaurants in the area. We went for my wife's birthday. Service was gracious, friendly , and accommodating. The room itself is warm and inviting. Food was excellent. We sampled a variety of dishes and all were pleasing and cooked and seasoned well. They serve wine and beer, no cocktails as they are too close to a church, some arcane New York thing. We loved our experience there and will be back.

Walked in and was greeted by a server. Walked us to our table quickly and came back to get drink orders promptly. Food was delicious and it was a very comfortable dining experience

Food was "good". Not all items available and not a lot of options. Only beer and wine. They needed more servers. The host and 2 servers, no bar tender for a full restaurant. We sat by the door and my chair was constantly kicked by passer-bys and servers rushing. Nice people.

Food and service were great. They had an issue with a break-in the previous day, so they had no money for change if paying cash. Was also cold, again, due to the break-in. I like how they offer half portions, so we were able to sample a few different menu items, all of which were excellent. I noticed they turned away quite a few groups that came in to sit at the bar. Not sure quite sure what that was about, either staffing shortages or no liquor, just beer and wine. Overall, a good experience. Would go back for sure.

317 will probably replace our previous favorite restaurant. It used to be Frankies. it had a New York vibe, good food and felt intimate and friendly. 317 has some of those same qualities. We were greeted personally by owner Joel. felt cared for and cared about. We'll be back.

Always a treat. Food was delicious. Love that some meals are available in half portions at reduced price for smaller appetites, or to be able to order two different plates without excessive food--no other restaurant we've ever visited has this option. Great hit with 85 ear old MIL! Also new are tasty sandwich options--the fried chicken sandwich is wonderful. Ambiance quiet; great for conversation. No obnoxious TV screens all over the place. Price reasonable. Dessert selections superb. Wonderful blends of tastes and textures all selections from appetizers, entrées, to desserts. Coffee too weak, but we left well satisfied and delighted to know a great restaurant with food we could not cook better ourselves. We are regulars and absolutely love that the menu changes seasonally-- never same old boring. Terrific!

Quiet and quiet little restaurant. Great service and a small but very interesting menu. The food was fabulous, and the delivery of each course was perfect. The only drawback is that they don't have a full bar, just beer and wine.

This time when I went, the food was not terribly good and the offerings were a strange mix that were not appetizing. The wine list is not as good as it should be. The first time I ate at this restaurant, it was outstanding in all ways and I have been dying to come back. I will not give up on them but do think that their offerings need work and less salt. The owners are talented restaurateurs and foodies so perhaps it was just an evening that did not appeal to my tastes.

We always enjoy this restaurant! We love the seasonal change of menu. The food combinations, regardless of appetizer, entree, or dessert are unique and palate pleasing combinations. The menu has recently been updated to include sandwich options as well as the ability to order half portions for smaller appetites or to combine two different plates if you can't decide between them! The ambiance encourages good conversation (you can actually hear your table mates!), and is elegant but relaxing. They try hard to accommodate different diets when possible. Service is excellent.
