“Great place / definitely old school mom and pop diner. Highly recommend. Note..no alcohol. I was lucky enough to have picked up some vodka shotsto make my tomato juice medicinal. This is a real community diner. Lots of seniors and families.”

“This is such a charming farm country store in Burnt Hills. Not only is the atmosphere inviting, but the selection of items makes it well worth the visit. While here, I was able to satisfy multiple impulses at once. I was able to find some delicious almong cookies with raspberry jam, maple cream, honey almond handsoap, and several candles that smell absolutely AMAZING.What I like aside from the great variety of items that they sell is the QUALITY. If you have a tendency to grasp as Shiney objects, you'll find quite a few here. But I can assure you that you most definitely get what you pay for. Their baked goods are unlike anything I've purchased at a country store before, and they have certainly gained my future patronage as a result.The staff was friendly and made me feel welcome, which was a surprise being a NYC native, where everyone is on guard. I think it would take several visits for me to truly take in all this place has to offer, but I endeavor to try! It's definitely worth the visit and money well spent.”

“First time customer and we called ahead and went to pick it up.I'm not one to write a review unless there's a problem or it was so good it deserved one.

This level of proactive service truly speaks to the commitment to customer satisfaction at this establishment.Our server, Sarah, was an absolute gem. Not only was she friendly and approachable, but she also proved to be an excellent guide, helping us navigate the extensive menu and wine bar selections with ease. Her recommendations were spot-on, showcasing her thorough knowledge of the drinks and menu offerings.Overall, my experience at this wine bar was nothing short of exceptional. With its inviting atmosphere, delectable charcuterie boards, and signature drinks that tease the taste buds, it's the perfect destination for anyone looking to unwind and indulge in a memorable dining experience. I can't wait to return and explore more of what this hidden gem has to offer. Cheers to Sarah and the entire team AND MY HUSBAND? for making it an unforgettable evening!”

“Very cute little champagne bar. Made reservations prior. My table was ready right on time and staff was super friendly. I loved that there was a good selection of drinks and cocktails. The charcuterie was also good! Would definitely recommend enjoying before dinner or for a happy hour! Be sure to make reservations as it is pretty small inside.”

“I have patronized Indulgence Bakery 4-5 times now for custom orders and I keep coming back! The cakes are beautiful and come with so many great flavor options that it’s difficult to choose. I’ve also ordered lots of custom cookies to give as gifts, always with rave reviews. Alex doesn’t miss!”

“We spent Valentine’s Day at Kindred and could not have been more blown away by the service and food. MUST TRY - focaccia with garlic confit, hot honey, and burrata. Can’t wait to go back!”

“I have been going to J & T's Cafe for many years. The food and service is always consistently good. What really takes it over the top are the freshly homade soups, which there is 6 or more varieties. Everything is prepared fresh everyday, and the best home cooked food around. The clientele that frequent this establishment are also very pleasant, which also is an indication of their satisfaction with this establishment. For those few disgruntled customers, take your frustration out on your wives or significant other. John and the crew at J & T's are aces.”

“A nice place to go to see a live show, have a drink and a snack. Check there lineups and order ahead. Amazing sound and it's the oldest coffee house running in the country.”

“At at Nonna Maria’s last week. All our food was delicious and plenty of it, My husbands veal was tuff, not their fault, they took it back and he got chic Parm. He wasn’t crazy about the sauce, neither was our friends. We all like a thin sauce. Took our food home and he ate mine which he loved and I ate his which was very tender. We just like a thinner sauce. The waitress Linda was very attentive to us. The cook came out too, he made my husband the chicken parm then. All in all place was nice. Waitress was great and I will go again with my husband, he will just get something like I had. It really was delishous. I left a lil crazy tip for our waitress Because my husband kept complaining. Linda and chef were great, they did all they can”

“Amazing service, atmosphere, food, wine and dining experience! Such a gem of a spot inside. Both times we have been there we had the pleasure of live music as well. The interior aesthetic is lovely and romantic - a perfect date night spot. I have gluten and tree nut allergies and they are very accommodating too! I highly recommend a stop here and can't wait to go back!”

“The best pizza! Wish there’s an option to reserve a table without walking in person. And the amount of the meat topping has been reduced lately. Still love dining in and taking out from Classic Crust! Will keep”

“Great people/service, Amazing music, and the best sourdough I've ever had! The bagel was of the highest quality and as someone who typically has new york city bagels I was thoroughly impressed with just how good their bagels are made! You can see them make the bread which is such an interesting process. If you're in the area definitely stop by and try something!”

“The food here is wonderful! The owner and staff put a lot of time and care into the food that they make, and they're not afraid to try new combinations to make the already great products even better.I decided to try out their BBQ Chicken burger and it was fantastic paired with the onion rings. 10/10 for sure.”

“We visited here while traveling from GA. The reviews said it was good and Memphis King did not disappoint. Every single thing we ordered was excellent. Some of the best pulled pork I’ve ever tasted. On top of that, Brandon and his team went above and beyond to make sure we enjoyed our meal. Thank you for a great meal. ?”

“Eating at Taqueria Guadalajara transported me back to the 12 years my family lived in San Jose CA.All the fresh ingredients, the herbs and spices, combined with good presentation and a home cooking vibe, made for a wonderful dining experience in an intimate setting with plenty of eye candy.TG is my new go to for a Mexican food destination, and within easy reach of the southern Adirondacks and northern capitol district.”

“Great quality food and service in all cozy, homestyle restaurant setting. We didn't need full meals but were looking to tide ourselves over until a later dinner so shared the chowder, French onion soup, 2 flavors of wings and the Napa salad. All excellent but might go for 2 chowders next time!”

“Bringing a Smith's Orchard pie(s) to a family event, is like Santa walking in with a sack full of gifts. The smiles and anticipation everyone has for these, "as good as grandma's" pie(s) is "Priceless".”
