Syracuse's Hidden Gems: Where Stars Dine in the City

A well-known comedian is set to perform in Syracuse and is on the hunt for the best local eateries.

Todd Barry, who has been in many movies and TV shows, will be at the Syracuse Funny Bone on February 18. Before his show, he asked fans on social media for recommendations on where to eat alone in Syracuse.

Fans Weigh In

Some people joked around, like actress Lauren Holly, who suggested he leave the state. Others, like musician Steven Page, gave serious suggestions, such as Noble Cellar and The Wedge. Fans also mentioned places like Pastabilities and Dinosaur Bar-B-Que. Barry seemed to like some of these ideas, even the suggestion of the Wegmans food court.

What Makes a Restaurant "Celeb-Friendly"?

The question of what makes a restaurant "celeb-friendly" came up. Does it mean a place where stars can avoid fans, or just a good spot for visitors to enjoy local food? Local author Russ Burlingame joked that Syracuse isn't exactly a hotspot for celebrity sightings.
