Exciting news from Tiny's Grill! The restaurant, which is a stone's throw away from Oneida Square at 1014 State Street, went up for sale last year and has officially welcomed new owners. As part of this transition, they'll be offering a sale on many of their old restaurant items:

HISTORY OF TINY'S GRILL

A beloved fixture of Utica for over three decades, Tiny's earned its reputation for offering a warm and inviting ambiance, delectable cuisine, and those iconic Blues Brothers figures on the roof that welcomed you.

Ed "Tiny" Wolack founded the original Tiny's in 1931. It was located on Whitesboro Circle before moving to its current location. Tiny's was once a hotbed for jazz musicians. Famous flugelhorn player Chuck Mangione played there, and even gifted a piano to the owners.

Joanne Gerace purchased Tiny's back in 1990, and celebrated 30 years of ownership in 2020, back when the pandemic was raging. Like most locally owned restaurants, Tiny's struggled to get by while doing their best to adapt to New York's stringent COVID mandates.
