★★★★★ 5.0 Erin Phillips · Feb 2026

This was my brother and i’s first stop in Ithica, the server was super welcoming and made a fantastic apple sage mule! We really liked the fingerling potatoes and fish taco, they were very accommodating of my gluten allergy.

★★★★★ 5.0 Juanita Salas · Feb 2026

The butternut Cristini was amazing with the Gorgonzola. Philip definitely made us some amazing drinks. I recommend the honey lavender gin fizz delicious, and the meatloaf. Don’t laugh was equally amazing. Delicious. I will never eat another meatloaf..

As total foodies, this meal was fantastic! 🤩 Our server Phillip was awesome, and the pork belly bites and lemongrass chili chicken wings were absolutely amazing. 🍋🌶️ We'll definitely be back! ✨

★★★★★ 5.0 Tom Geyer · Mar 2026

We had a really good meal at Food Lab and would highly recommend it to others. We wanted to order everything but settled on 3 share plates and a main. Highlights were the duck fat fingerlings and chili crisp gnocchi. The curry dumplings and oyster mushroom arancini were also quite good. The portion size on the share plates is generous and the main was large. Everything tasted great and was nicely seasoned. There are several dishes wed try the next time we visit. Our server Phillip was friendly, knowledgeable about the menu, and was present the perfect amount. He recommended a very tasty Osmote Pét-Nat and his description (“it’s like a white Airhead, but drier”) was spot on. Make sure you have a reservation, especially on busy nights. Seating is somewhat limited, but there are a few bar spo

★★★★★ 5.0 Jed Kissane · Oct 2025

Walked in (for reservation that you'll likely need) to be greeted by warm attentive staff. Food is next level. I'm talking big city stuff. 9 out of 10 easily. Pleasantly surprised. If you're lucky, Philip will be your server. He's a fun rock star of a server.
