We were greeted in the parking lot by a gentleman with an umbrella, who walked us to the entrance, and we were hugged by a very nice lady at the front door. Our server, Malachi was excellent. He was very personable and attentive. The food was delicious as well as the drinks. We thoroughly enjoyed our evening and we’re happy to promote this restaurant that helps young people learn the culinary industry. We had a very enjoyable evening, at a very reasonable price.

We were fortunate to have been able to visit right after their reopening in conjunction with Seat Center. The staff were warm and inviting, serving up delicious food and drinks. Everything was fresh, tasty and well prepared. Loved the grilled romaine starter, fried chicken and apple galette.

Most flavorful fried chicken I've had from a restaurant! The potatoes weren't anything to write home about, but the omelet was worth having again.

Made a super convenient reservation online for Sunday brunch. Luckily they have a dedicated parking lot across the street. The decor is fitting and funky and the restaurant is very clean. All staff we encountered were friendly and patient with us (as my friend and I took a couple hours to catch up.) I had the aperol spritz which was the just the type of light drink I was looking for. I got the Hattie’s 4 piece meal with home fries. What is there to say about the chicken? This is Hattie’s so the answer should be obvious; crispy and delicious and plentiful. Home fries are topped with cheese and green onions. Yum! Next time I’ll request extra green onion on top. My friend had the Cajun omelet with a side of sausage gravy and ate every bit. Highly recommend!

We were greeted warmly and seated right away. Our waitress was very attentive and friendly . We loved the mood the ambiance created . It had interesting touches and a modern old world vibe. Our food was delicious , I went for the Hattie’s chicken sandwich. Delish! It came with small chopped potatoes with a Parmesan topping . Tasty! The parking was right in front of the restaurant . Sunday afternoon. Hattie’s donates all its profits to charity which we found most impressive .

We arrived at 6:25 for 6:30 reservations to say it would be a 10 to 15 minute wait. People arrived after us and were seated before us. They had a reservation for 5 and went down to 3. Also we were then told we would have a 45 minute wait. This is totally unacceptable as we have tickets for an event at 8. Asked to speak to the manager and was told he was in the kitchen and would be out in a few minutes. We waited until 6:53 and he said he might be able to seat us but not sure. I would think twice about making reservations as they really don’t matter. Total confusion and not sure if they are coming or going. They lost my business.

I had an amazing birthday here. The staff in this restaurant went above and beyond to satisfy my birthday needs upon entry we were greeted. The staff all said happy birthday to me. We were the last to leave and they did not rush us. They even took our group pictures they laughed and joked with us. I had a reservation for a party of 7. A few people from our party was late. They made us feel at home and welcomed thank you to our server. Mathew and Devonte. I gave four stars for the food because the collard greens had way too much vinegar in them, the Hattie hurricane I had three of those, and I didn’t get quite the buzz that I was looking for, but other than that, it was great. but everything else was A1 We will definitely come back and visit again thank you for the superb customer service hats off to you all. It’s not an easy job serving the public.

Went here for Easter brunch. Server seemed like she didn't want to be there. Asked about menu items and she did not know the answers. Beignets were dense and not beignets. Bloody Mary was watered down, crab cake Benedict were delicious, strawberry stuffed french toast wife loved and son devoured the biscuits and gravy. Will try again and hopefully get a better server.

Listen, if you’re looking for a great meal, such as shrimp and grits and a pecan pie dessert , this is definitely the place to come to. Soon as I walked in, I felt the great ambience. My waiter chynna she treated me like family. The manager Scott and his team is incredible. There is no doubt in my mind that I will be returning. Thank you for the great hospitality HATTIES IN ALBANY.
There is a waiter who has glasses and dreads pinned up. He really make you feel welcomed on the walk in. His intro and the way he speaks to you, makes you feel like you belong. Thank you once again!!!

I am beyond impressed with this restaurant. The service is excellent. Everyone is sweet and friendly. The ambiance is warm and inviting. The food, omg, the food is soooo goooood! We got generous portions. Everything was delicious and just like a homemade meal. If you're in the area, you have to try Hattie's. Easily, one of the best, if not THE BEST, restaurants in town.

Unfortunately this is not equal to Hattie’s of Saratoga. My wife and I love eating @Hattie’s in Saratoga and tonight our meal from the Albany Hatties was nothing close to Saratoga. We cannot recommend this version of Hattie’s.
