“The music , the food and service is excellent w the waiters that make u feel very comfortable ❤️ I suggest panzas especially for a celebration… My friends took me there and it was fabulous“

“The food was delicious. don't let the appearance from the outside fool you. you can smell the deliciousness from the sidewalk and we ate every bite. the waiter asked if we wanted to eat the paper and we died laughing. They even accommodated us having our baby with us.“

“Chorizo BANGS. Get it in anything guaranteed 10/10. Have been ordering and dining in here for a year or two now, and have always been more than happy with what I get for what I pay. Drinks are also great too!“

“We had the most amazing breakfast flat bread. Kabasa onions and peppers potatoes with 2 sunny side up eggs. That was a breakfast to beat all breakfast I’ve ever had at country corner cafe. Keep up the great work. Service was out standing as always.“

“Authentic Southern Indian cuisine. Great selections for vegan / vegetarian. Excellent food and service.“

“Family and I go a few times a year. Definitely like this place. Very common for locals to also come. Make sure to call for reservations during busy parts of the day. They also do take out as well. My go to is the shredded tofu with noodles. This time I happen to get a Vegetarian Spring Roll. Very good as well. I do like the Summer rolls as well. Next time I’ll get a summer roll ^_^“

“Stopped in for drinks, great bar selection Ordered the tuna tartare, beet salad and French fries. All exceeded expectations. So delicious and generous sized portions. Wish we were staying in town longer so we could return.“

“Such a cute place! My husband and I love coming here. There are so many coffee, espresso and tea drinks to choose from. It's neat that there's a grab and go area too!“

“Scallions offers several vegetarian options. I ordered the Mediterranean Quinoa Bowl. Tofu was supposed to be grilled but definitely wasn’t. The citrus vinaigrette was a bit overpowering. The dish came to the table hot and I enjoyed it other than what I mentioned here. Pistachio ricotta cake was delicious.“

“Had our wedding reception here this past weekend-service was exceptional, food was incredible, and Taylor went above and beyond to try and make sure everything was perfect for us. Guests told us it was one of the best weddings they’d ever been to. Highly recommend“

“Last night I ordered a cheeseburger for my wife and chicken tikki masala for me. My wife's favorite burger is Burger King. She said the burger was very good and almost as good as Burger King. Her burger was much bigger from Kabob House so she only ate half. While she was enjoying her burger. I was totally enjoying my chicken tikki masala. i wanted to eat half but I kept mixing a little more of the red sauced chicken with the rice. It was so fresh and the spice was so good. I was so full yet wanted more. The only thing I could not understand was, how and why would people not buy a burger here instead of Burger King? It even came with fries. My wife said because it had no onions. Later that evening I heard half a cheeseburger calling me. I cut off a large bite and was amazed by the thickness of the burger. The meat quality was far superior to any fast food burger. I am declaring Kabab House the burger winner. The food here is excellent. What's not to like ? I think they need an interior decorator. The place needs new tables and chairs with a better layout. Brighten things up.“

“Great food, friendly service Support local“

“Great experience! Atmosphere and service were top notch.“

“Exceptional wait staff, relaxing environment either enough distance between guests to offer an intimate setting. Food presentation is art plus taste is excellent and drinks incredible!!“

“Great food and service“

“As far as healthy bowl and smoothie places go you have a variety in Saratoga now but I think BARE Blends is the best combination of consistent quality and affordability. Definitely my go-to now for a healthy boost“

“to the people commenting on the lack of ambiance...? i think it is fine. for me the music is "ambient" enough, along with the lovely wall mural, and photos showing what the food is....not to mention the collection of both holly AND "bolly"wood stars and starlets, adorning a back side wall. the dining area is always SPOTLESSLY CLEAN, and the bathroom shines. they keep the prices very reasonable, which is a HUUGE plus for me. the food is always great, fresh, and tasty, not to mention a lot healthier than the traditional american diet. staff is attentive. i never felt they "watch to see how many dishes you take", as someone suggested. they are likely making sure people get FRESH plates with every visit to the steam tables., since this is actually a restaurant/buffet health law...i have never ever, once felt like they wanted to "rush" me out. they are always very welcoming and accommodating.. AWESOME SPOT. thank you, clifton park "shalimar".“

“We have been to just about every sushi place in the area, and this one is by far the best! The food is always fantastic, and the staff is amazing. Hands down, my favorite sushi restaurant!“

“16 Handles in Clifton Park did such an amazing job for a graduation party that I had. They allow you to order as many varieties as you want. The great thing is it covers all kinds of dietary restrictions. Everyone was able to have it!!! It was such a big hit at the party and I can’t wait for the opportunity to use them again!!! I have been a fan from the start, when you receive such good customer service it just takes it to the next level!! Thank you for adding to the whole experience.“

“Our Server Cody was excellent, made our experience even better then it already was. Food was great, loved the atmosphere .. we will be back Thank you“

“Porchetta with Mozz off of daily specials menu, was one of the best heros I've had. Tuesday July 02. Thank you.“

“Cobb Salad - generous and delish - allthe classic ingredients including nice chunks of avacado!“

“Delicious cuisine. Friendly staff.“

“Unique decor with tin tiles and an old school, classic feel. you can tell that they are foodies by the way they compose dishes and the cocktails are excellent. It is generally busy. I can usually find a seat for two, but I would call ahead especially for more than two people. This is a great place. One of my favorites.“

“Bua Thai & Sushi is hands down my husband’s and my favorite place to eat. The food is consistently fresh, and the portions are generous, ensuring we leave satisfied every time. The owner, Lex, is incredibly friendly and always makes a point to check in with us, ensuring everything is perfect, which it always is.

The wait staff and chef is just as hospitable, going above and beyond to provide excellent service. The restaurant itself is spotless – cleanliness is a top priority for us, and Bua exceeds our expectations. My husband always opts for the sashimi and often takes home one of their delicious Thai soups. As for me, I love the orange chicken box because it offers a variety of options that never disappoint.

Every visit makes us feel like part of the family, and we couldn’t recommend Bua Thai & Sushi more!“

“Visiting the area and went for Sunday brunch. Excellent menu options! Started with a meat & cheese board that was fantastic! The stuffed dates and ham croquettes were delicious! The chicken sandwich was a little dry but great flavor. My husband said the Bloody Mary was the best he’s had, I enjoyed the white sangria, and the carajillo cocktail was superb! The service and atmosphere were also excellent! It’s not a quiet restaurant, but we were able to easily converse at our table. Would definitely go again!“

“Food is great and service is great. The only issue I have is your gift card policy between Albany and Saratoga. I’ve had family be told you can use a gift card at either location and I have been told it must be used where it was purchased? My parents bought a gift card at the Albany location for my wife and I. The back of the card had Saratoga on it. Thankfully, we presented the gift card receipt after being told we could only use it in Saratoga when the receipt showed it was purchased in Albany. Thankfully, the server and the manager didn’t give up on the situation and were able to manually enter the card number in despite the magnetic strip on the card not working. Bravo to them! However, the only gift cards you are able to purchase in Albany say Saratoga on the back. So if you have a gift card, you better bring a gift card receipt or you may not be able to use it. I hope you guys look at the policy. My only negative. Other than that sushi is fresh and quick and great service !“

“I will never eat here again I ordered their afternoon tea. A plain salad plate which consisted of greens two slices of cucumber and shredded carrots, a cup of soup and I wanted a scone. They were out of scones so I reluctantly agreed to a piece of cake. When I saw they charged me 29 I spoke to the manger explaning my complaint. She refused to acknowledge that the meal was overpriced for what I had. The waitress never stated there was an upcharge. Had I gotten a sandwich I would feel different but for what I got the price was waaay out of proportion. Never never never eating here again.“

“I have been here a few times and the service is great! The food is great and everyone is very friendly!“

“I attended Skidmore from 1978-1982. Compared to what it was like back then, the dining hall is far and away a 5! It's a massacre. Those giving low ratings have no idea what college dining halls were once like, even at high-priced schools. It's been a huge change that has greatly benefited the younger generations. Be appreciative. If you had to eat the way we used to have to, you would probably be traumatized.It's interesting how it's possible to rate individual buildings on Skidmore campus and not just Skidmore itself.“

“I just went to STACK’D Nutrition this morning with my husband and I have to say that this place is AWESOME! I got the snickers protein shake and it was amazing, we also got some protein waffles and they were the BEST protein waffles I’ve ever had, YUMMY! Highly recommend this place 10/10.“

“My mother, her friend, my husband, and our two year old toddler came here for dinner. Nothing was made aware to us that this isn’t a “kid friendly” establishment. There are no high chairs, and when my mother asked for one, the manager said “she better behave”. This is completely off putting. It’s too bad, because the food is good, but the service was not great. It seemed like we were bothering the waitress, all the while the manager was staring at us from his seat at the bar making sure my daughter was behaving. I do not recommend.“

“Completely forgot to post this on Friday, Lani and myself ordered some food to go from The Mex and we were more than satisfied! Joe created a KILLER wing sauce with all the charm of a classic Buffalo but with some texmex flair and the wings were crispy yet juicy, completely amazing like the rest of the food we got! Thank you Mexican Connection!“

“The food was served cold and the smell in the restaurant was not fresh. The food is like a Chinese buffet style and the attitude of the host is not welcome! 1 ⭐️ out of 10.....not recommended“

“It's my go to grocery store. For items you can find at Hannaford or Market 32, I think you pay a little more, but there's a lot you can't find in most other stores that make it worth the visit. I appreciate the wide selection of yogurts, the cereals I have trouble finding elsewhere, and most of all the bulk commodity offerings. I get my nuts, my tea, my rice and other grains, and my kombucha all from bulk or tap. It has more than you think! If you like exploring grocery stores, give it a look.“

“Not your “ average “ Chinese restaurant. Authentic dishes, super knowledgeable staff and a killer background music playlist. Honestly I can’t recommend the food enough!“

“Great atmosphere and great beer“

“First time at the Merc. Hostess was very nice. Patrick's professionalism was fantastic and not seen enough these days. Brady was our server and his spirit and recommendations were spot on. The food was great and the Sangria was perfect for a Sunday afternoon brunch.... Thank you all...delish!“

“I love Kaffee House. the food is always fresh and delicious! the atmosphere is perfect for a quiet lunch with a friend. they also have a meeting room. the owners are very friendly and eager to please. I can't forget the desserts, yum! this is my go to for lunch with my friends.“

“The staff was great to be food was superb“

“Lots of flavors and there are a few that aren't sold in stores so it's cool to see. There is a price/value difference in going to a scoop shop vs buying a pint from a grocer - depends what you're looking for. The staff are really friendly and it's awesome they let you sample flavors. Sometimes there is inconsistency with their scoops. I've ordered a dish with 3 scoops and one of the flavors was a teeny scoop which can be a bummer if it's your favorite flavor. One time there was a duck outside that one employee was so kind to. It made me smile.

Parking: Easy location to park and walk to but actual parking near or in front of the shop is rarely available.“
