50 Best American Restaurants near Cohoes

“Very lovely owners. Husband and I stopped in for a bite to eat. It was our first time in as we try local spots and very glad we did! Small clean little cafe and the service was exceptional. Very friendly service and I even had to ask a patron what she had ordered because it looked so good! Good portions and prices. We will have to give lunch a try next time.“

“Our son was in a concert at the Cohoes City Music Hall so we went to Spindles for dinner. My son, husband, and I all had a wonderful dinner. We tried the fried deviled eggs and they were delicious. I also highly recommend any dish served with their risotto! It was the best I have had. Spindles is worth checking out!“

“So, this PR girl asked where I could get a good Reuben. 5 people recommended Illusive. You'd never know it was there unless you looked for it. Boy, was I not disappointed. The best Reuben I've ever had. Bought 3 to share with building managers. I'm sure they will also start going too.“

The waiter was super friendly, the food was quick, and we met the owner Joey and he is truly trying to make everyone who comes in feel like part of his family. There are good vegetarian breakfast options, and the apps for lunch and dinner are also veggie friendly. Skip Manory's and head to Trojan Station, especially if you like a quieter atmosphere.“

Everything is priced well and the food is always so yummy. I love looking around at all the art while waiting for the food to come to the table.

Favorite breakfast spot in Troy!!“

“Greg and his entire staff did an amazing job on my husband's party! Everything was great! The food was phenomenal and the service couldn't have been better! Please contact Greg for parties or catering! You will not be disappointed!“

“This is by far my favorite coffee shop in Telkwa and Smithers. I probably spend far too much money then I should here, but I absolutely love it. The staff are always friendly and welcoming, the atmosphere is great, and don't even get me started on the coffee and the food. I don't know if I've had anything that I didn't like from here. I've tried pretty much everything from the pies, meat pies, the freshly made sourdough bread that is just delicious, and the burgers on Fridays. You also have things like the cookies, the brownies and so much more. On top of all of that there's even a lot that I have yet to try, the ice cream being one of them. She even went on vacation for a couple of weeks and that was probably the longest couple of weeks without a good coffee. Oh yeah and I almost forgot, the breakfast wraps are absolutely delicious. You got to try them. Try anything try everything try it all, I'm sure you'll love it.“

“My family and I had the most amazing dining experience here at Normanside. The staff is extremely friendly, the food was exceptional, and the atmosphere is perfect. Great job team Normanside. Highly recommend anyone to come in and experience it for yourself!!!“

“beautiful venue with great food“

“The best cocktails in Albany! (Get the Capital City Renewal!) I had the best birthday dinner there tonight. Thanks to the team for making it special. The appetizers were incredible!“

“Instead of recommending the restaurant or not I wish I could rate it with stars. I would give a 3.75 the food was the good. The service was good. The atmosphere was good. Nothing was stand out amazing. For the price I would think the entrees would come with a salad or bread for the table but they do not. Drinks of course were expensive as anywhere but I got the smallest pour of wine I’ve probably ever received. We went for a special occasion and I wish we would have went somewhere else. Maybe I’ll try again with friends again for lunch and hope for a better experience.“

“Great place! Great food, Great atmosphere! really can not go wrong! flavorful, tasteful, and just all around fantastic! highly recommend to people!“

“Always excellent food, service and friendly too. Highly recommend you trying as it will become a fast favorite.“

“Fun place to hang out, whether you play golf or not, it's so much more than that. Great food, great vibes!“

“Admittedly did not expect to find this gem of a place during our one night trip to Albany for an event. We were exhausted and thought the hotel restaurant would just have to do. Most US based restaurants sorely disappoint in food quality. Mr D’s was truly an exception. The service we received from the time we got in (and were the last two to be seated for the night) was remarkable. From the hostess (Kiosa) to our servers (Jada and Sophie), those were key to our amazing experience. Once we sat at our table where we requested to be away from the noise and door, we knew we were in good hands. The wine selection was curated and Jada knew how to help me pick from a couple of bottles I was not aware of which showed thoughtful training. We ordered the lamb shank special. Which as a south East Asian, I get terrified when non-Asians cook a South Asian inspired flavour fusion. We were glad fully delighted and the corn side was perfectly spiced as well. What stood out to me was my steak and chips which came with one of the best au poivre sauce I’ve had to date. It was not pepper forward but instead felt like an elegant glaze of tender flavours allowing the steak to shine.

Again, utterly surprised by how good the food AND the service was at Mr D’s. If we’re ever passing through Albany again, this is certainly on our list of places to go! Truly, kudos to the team for building talented staff and curating a delicious menu.“

“Always friendly service, great options on the menu (they make custom changes), happy hour specials, and they have a great event schedule! Don’t forget to come in for your birthday- wings or clams or n the house!!! When we go for a birthday celebration we always get deer off the menu and get drink specials as well!!! I would suggest the Eggplant stack but ask for the Lisa Special- pesto instead of marinara!!! It’s absolutely to die for!!!“

“I’ve been looking forward to checking out the restaurant, Dove & Deer, since I first encountered their food when their chef was highlighted at the annual Summer Gala fundraiser here in Hudson last year. Their chef served an incredible amuse-bouche with gooseberries and the chef who was there sharing the amuse-bouches was wonderfully charming and the food was incredible! I was so impressed that I’ve been following their social media since then and have been looking forward to visiting the restaurant all the while! I was recently in the area and while I unfortunately wasn’t able to visit the restaurant in person- I was able to order through Door Dash and the meal was incredible! We ordered an assortment of things to share and were thrilled with everything! -Spicy Kale Caesar with shredded kale, croutons, and shaved parmesan! -Truffle Parm Fries with scallions and truffle aioli! -Mini Wagyu Beef Hotdogs made with wagyu beef, served in buttery toasted buns, and topped with mustard, ketchup, and relish! -Hot Lobster Dip made with lobster claw and knuckle meat, gruyere, gouda, fontina, spinach, scallion, and crispy wontons! It is often very difficult for a restaurant to adjust their menu to translate to takeout; and for them to do so where every single dish was not only delicious but also mostly with a great presentation, says a great deal about their attention to detail. This is a restaurant I look forward to dining at again many more times over the years!“

“Lovr Dobys! Our family has enjoyed their subs for many years. My husband and I have also liked their southern friend chicken wings. Great service and will order out to my car. We always do take-out so can't speak to the inside dining experience. I do not understand the negative reviews!“

“Stopped at Inga's last week and just want to say how beautiful and pleasant Bianca was. The food was fantastic, but she made our experience one that will definitely bring us back!“

“This is a great small, family run fast phone spot. It has been family run for at least 4 generations. I enjoy their Greek burger, and I like their hotdogs. For a quick, simple bite to eat that doesn't break the bank, I highly recommend them. Best visited in the summer on a nice day. Indoor space is very limited.“
