We’ve been going to Ralph’s for years! my dad goes atleast once a week. They have great food- the pizza and wings is best in town! its a smaller place so make sure to make reservations if you’re going at peak hours. OH and they don’t have high chairs so make sure you bring your own or put baby in

We ate lunch here and this was our 2nd visit and we had the crab cakes with fries and sweet potato fries and everything was delicious! The service was amazing and the ambiance is inviting. We will return!

Living in ATL, I always look forward to traveling anywhere in the Tri-State area for authentic Italian. Ralph's didn't disappoint! Definitely more of a mom and pops restaurant from the decor as well as the crowd that seemed to be regulars. I had the cheese ravioli which was delicious! Unfortunately, servings of ravioli are typically small these days (with 6 or 8), and you're left hungry. I'm unsure how many were in my serving, but it was at least 12. I was full and took a To Go box. Both the salad and the warm bread were good as well. My server Charlene was bustling all over the place but managed to get me everything I needed promptly. Great service. I highly recommend this spot!

Three of us decided to order the family style chicken parmesan dinner. Upon calling, the staff was very friendly and they had our food ready in about 25 minutes. The food was good, however, we did not get very much chicken for the "chicken parmesan dinner." It was definitely not enough chicken for a family, however, there was about two pounds of pasta. We were all able to have a rather small portion of chicken with what we were given but we were hoping for a little bit more considering it was a chicken parmesan dinner. The chicken was also a little dry. The bread was warm and fresh and the salad was good. I'm sure if you were to eat dinner in the restaurant and order the chicken parm dinner for one you may get a bigger portion.

Ralph's is a Colonie neighborhood gem. Old school Italian ambiance mixed with top notch services and exquisite Italian food make this one of my favorite restaurants in the area.

Haven’t made it to Ralph’s in a few years. Happy to see Lee is now an owner. Food and service were as good as ever. Chicken franchise is the best around and the wings are amazing as everyone already knows.
