Mi Casa Restaurant - Dominican restaurant in Utica - 1315 Genesee St, USA

Ho-LEE sheeeeeeet. This spot is the real deal. I guarantee you have driven by this place more than once but you never went it. Food is unbelievably authentic, flavorful, and original. Let me be clear, there are no chips and salsa.....this is not Mexican - it's Dominican. Everything was perfect.

I'd go back just to order their juices made in house. I had the Mango juice, fried tilapia, plantains and house salad. Prices are good, portions are good, and my server was very friendly. Authentic Dominican style restaurant. The music and flavors made me feel like I was on vacation but in the comforts of home. Thank you Mi Casa!

Service was good! Food was delicious! Nice tables and chairs. Overall the experience was wonderful. So good that no pictures were taken I talked to the server about a young kid playing music too loud! My friend and I had a hard time communicating! We'll be back since the food was excellent and I don't ditch a place for one issue!

I ordered some Calamares Frito, French Fries, and Pechuga Del Valle! The Pechuga has a creamy cheese sauce poured over chicken breast stuffed with sweet plantains & mozzarella. It was superb! French Fries is also very flavorful, I like this version. Meanwhile, I wish the Calamares is crispier. I think it's chewier than it should be. Overall, good food and beautiful place!

For a restaurant labeled as Caribbean, they definitely had a decent array of flavors highlighting multiple countries in the Caribbean. The front of house, Luisa, She was very sweet and accommodating. It was our first time in any Caribbean restaurant, and she took her time to help us with selections, and gave us a little overview of what the food was like that they were serving, primarily Dominican, versus what it would be like if it were Puerto Rican varietals. Everything was wonderfully fresh and delicious, everything was served with care and love, you could tell the Chef puts a lot of love in the food! We were passing through, but we will be back because of this. Wonderful experience! I had the eggplant dish, mofongo, passion fruit juice, and shared a serving of the tres leches cake! My husband had fried plantains, a chicken dish stuffed with yuca, and soursop. While we were here, it was not very busy with people seated and being served, but lots of takeout. It's not usual that we would have had such an opportunity to and chat with the staff, we were very lucky in our timing! It's evident that this is a cornerstone restaurant for the community!

Wonderful service, amazing food, great atmosphere!!

The food was amazing, Dominican cuisine at it's best. Portions are large and between two of us, we had enough to take home. Very nice atmosphere, music was so nice. Absolutely amazing!

Large servings of food! So far everything I've tasted here seems fresh and the service is fast. Prices are reasonable
