We discovered a true gem today. As a group with hectic professional schedules, we make it a priority to double date at least once a month to explore Utica’s local scene. We decided on Space NexDoor GastroLounge after seeing great reviews, and it did not disappoint. Great food and the cocktails were creative and tasty and the bartenders did not hold back. We will definitely be back for the spinach rolls, impossible pizza and awesome cocktails. The atmosphere is completely unique, tucked slightly off Genesee Street in what feels like a home, it’s easy to miss but well worth the find (it’s walking distance to One Genny). We arrived early and enjoyed a quiet, relaxing atmosphere. The owner, Lynn, is fantastic and brings serious mixology talent to the area. If you go (AND YOU SHOULD GO!) do not miss the pistachio espresso martini, the classic espresso martini, the lychee martini, the Old Fashioned, or the hot honey margarita. The food is just as impressive as the drinks, featuring a variety of excellent, unique appetizers and entrees. Beyond the menu, the hospitality is top-tier; Lynn and the entire staff are incredibly friendly and personable, making for an all-around wholesome and m

The service here was wonderful. It’s a very laid-back atmosphere. Make yourself at home and meet a new friend kind of vibe. The bartender was friendly and gave us the background on the history of the place. The owner is also a local dentist. We met the young man who introduced himself as the “main cook” but I would call him a chef! The food was fresh, fabulous, comforting, and beautiful! We had the pretzels, spinach balls, and the Philly flatbread. Every bite was devoured and enjoyed! We didn’t expect to find food this good, but WOW! Now, if you aren’t from the area, as we are not, you might drive by and miss the place, but look around because nearly every business on the street is a big, beautiful house! It’s a gorgeous neighborhood! I’m so glad we found this place!

This is a unique place, and everybody must try. We were there when they first opened. So not a lot of people. Cocktails were made exceptionally well. Owner an bartender Patricia were very nice. We didn't try a lot, but we did have the space balls.. are anything with expresso in they make it themselves in-house. Some of the in-house recipes, our old family and friends recipes. Small unique. Place to visit definitely a must for cocktails and good flatbread.

This is definitely the place to stop by if you're in Utica. Cosmic atmosphere, fabulous people, just matchless vibes! Lynn and Patricia make some killer drinks, especially Martinis. Food wise the flat breads are 👌🏼 My Favorites the fig prosciutto and goat cheese, as well as the Buffalo chicken; a must try! Cleanliness is 10/10 across the whole place, which speaks volumes to me. If you're smoker there's also an assigned area outside for that. Thank you for all the great times Lynn and Patricia, you guys rock! I'm definitely coming to see you next time I'm in town. Love ya'll ♡
