“My phone wouldn't let.me scan the bar code to complete the survey yesterday but a review is definitely necessary. First time at.the Troy location. I had honey bbq wings for an appetizer. Great stuff. And for an entree was ribs, brisket with sides of chili and salad. A came.with cornbread Everything was spectacular, one of the.best meals I have had. Bacon in the chili and the house dressing being bbq ranch were nice touches. My server Alison deserves a lot of credit too. Pleasant person, hard working, and made great suggestions when I asked. Alison and the food made this a great experience. Highly recommended and I will be back.“

“This is a great venue to see live music. My son's band played there last night, and we were happy to see that this is a place with a great open space/stage for a band to play and get a good crowd. Nice beer list, the house white wine was Pinot grigio (which made my wife happy), nice menu of snacks, including Nathan's hot dogs (glizzies), and......and......Saranac root beer on tap. Good stuff. All the staff was friendly. Definitely looking forward to going to another show at No Fun in Troy. Recommended!“

“Baristas are friendly and efficient, and the coffee never disappoints.“

“I now live in Texas , but every trip to Albany includes a trip to Miranda’s deli. The food is off the charts. The smoking hot chick who makes the sandwiches and the special-needs guy who runs the register are both Fantastic. There aren’t enough stars to rate this place.“

“The works and Nutty monkey bowl was the absolute best! When I say delish, that’s exactly what I mean. I 100% recommend any one of these as well as the place for many other reasons! Enjoy when you make it there.“

“While passing through for a short visit to the UAlbany campus, we researched some healthy and affordable lunch options nearby. We are so glad we found Simone's! This place is so cute on the outside, and fast, affordable, and delicious on the inside! The portions were huge, the food was fresh, and the prices were competitive with chains like Chipotle or Panera. 5/5!“

“Lauren and Colin are beautiful people and run a truly special establishment. An amazingly curated tap list and bottle selection, as well as super tasty small bites make for a wonderful experience with each visit.“

“How do you keep warm and in good spirits up in the crown of Maine, Aroostook county? Well...."New Scotland spirits"! Helderberg winter wheat whiskey.. 68W American corn whiskey.... or a nice bottle of Helderberg Vodka. Thanks so much for a taste of Home. Happy New year!“

“My husband is a breakfast connoisseur and said this is the best breakfast he has had ANYWHERE! The Rocky Mountain Benedict’s was delicious and the Cherry Amaretto pancakes were to die for!! The home is gorgeous and SAM was the best server, hostess all around amazing l person ever! This is a must go and eat when in Albany! 5+++++ stars!“

“I just ordered take out from there and everything was phenomenal. My family was pleasantly pleased as well.“

“Looking for a spot to get a quick lunch. My son suggested this place. Food was great, service was quick, friendly staff and very reasonable. Definitely looking forward to a return visit!“

“if you like traditional Mexican food you must try the newly opened El Rancho on Central Ave in Albany!!! El Rancho offers truly authentic Mexican cuisine -- in the Oaxaca tradition. Fresh, delicious, plentiful, dishes and fantastic lunch specials (including delicious "burrito bowls" and taco specials). The best chips !! thin, crispy, not oily with the perfect amount of salt. The restaurant is beautiful -- hand painted murals and traditional vibrant Oaxaca decor. Nice, airy bar is separated from the dining room making dining a pleasure. Attentive and informative staff and family-run and very welcoming! I'm definitely returning....“

“its triple so nice！“

“Nighthawks is THE BEST spot in Troy. My husband and I adore this place. They make the best omelette I’ve ever had and my husband is in love with their burgers. 100000/10 recommend. Staff are amazing and overall experience is magical!! Wow wow wow.“

“Emack in Albany is a wonderful venue - for a quick cone or a meet up with friends. Orah has done an incredible job making this a fun & inviting space for all who walk in the door! Looking forward to the music on the summer stage :)“

“Pint Sized - what a place. It’s cozy. It’s homey. Basically an extension of my living room. Great beer. Great bartenders. Always good vibes among bar guests. I always love coming when J is working bar. What a kind and tentative bartender they are. A Jack’s Abby truly tastes better when J pours it. Also love coming here for Friday karaoke. Good vibes all around!!!“

“Food is absolutely incredible and the service is even better. I recommend 3 Brothers to everyone.“

“Fantastic little brunch spot. Only seats about six inside, but entirely worth waiting for. Delicious meals and pastries, and amazing coffee. Shared a strawberry nutella waffle and the Turkish breakfast plate, was a perfect meal! Definitely a new favorite!“

“The specials are usually really good, best I've had was the churro cake. The cookies are good, I prefer usually to go for the minis because of the price but also they're also baked through more than the larger cookies.
Heads up if you order through doordash, let an employee know because your order will not be on the display screen of waiting orders.
Biscoff cheesecake was insanely good
Tried the Dubai Chocolate Brownie, was really good, just can't justify the price for the Dubai Chocolate craze.“

“I visit there about 4-5 times a month to grab a bite to eat, I usually get the lasagna dinner or their hot subs. Hands down the best in the area. The staff is always friendly and helpful. when in the area a must stop it won't disappoint!“

“Great food from beginning to end for both parents and kids! The service was so nice, our waitress was really friendly and knowledgeable.“

“Friendly service. The food exceeded our expectations, it was delicious from appetizers to desserts. the hand crafted sauces are definitely a highlight. the food doesn't need sauces, but they definitely add a nice pop of flavor. we had : Yuca frita Arepitas con queso guda Arepa Pernil Cachapa Carne Mechada Quesillo de coco Crème Brulè cheescake Mango juice and a pineapple soda“

“Amazing food and amazing owner!!!! Highly recommend 🥰“

“We absolutely LOVE booking Nine Pin for our Lifestyle Program of events for our residents here at Adams Station. Nine Pin's booking process is effortless and timely. Jessica is an absolute joy to work with, in addition to every staff member she has sent us. Our residents love when Nine Pin comes to events, whether it's to set up a bar and serve their delicious drinks, or for the tasting events that let them learn the history and science behind the brand. Thanks for always elevating our events, can't wait to have you back soon!🍻“

“An excellent selection of hard to find Eastern European beers and wines! Plus we tried some local brews. Bartender very good at helping us choose what we’d like. Relaxed atmosphere- we’ve eaten both inside and out in the garden, which is hidden from the street and a nice surprise to find after walking through the black gates. We had appetizers, burgers and salads- all were very good.“

“The food here is 10/10.
The fish and grits combo is a delicious choice.
There are so many options to choose from.
Smoothies, smoothie bowls, protein shakes, and all types of food choices from all over.
One of their undefeated meals is the Caesar salad with steak on top. You will not be disappointed. They have a ton of healthy snacks and over 40 drink choices. They even have seaweed chips! The chef is very kind and he talks to everyone. The staff are great, very accommodating. If you call to order give them about 20 minutes before you pick up. They have wheel chair accessibility as well. It’s
worth the wait!“

“A jewel of a discovery. When we found other establishments on New Scotland Ave closing their dining rooms by 9pm on a Saturday night, SakeCafe was graciously open, serving delicious food (we tried a little of everything from sushi to Udon) and with the best tableside service I've experienced in literally years. Oh, and the hot sake is splendid and at $6/bottle an unbeatable value. SO happy to know they are just around the corner. Sorry bao buns place but you lose, SakeCafe wins.“

“This is a PHENOMENAL place. The food I got called the Breakfast Bowl tasted amazing and was a brilliant combination of food (kale, broccoli, sweet potato, avocado, and two sunny side up eggs with an amazing sauce on top!), and my cold brew coffee was unique and delicious. I'll be honest, I helped make it unique because I wanted mine to have cashew milk and maple syrup in it which ended up being 👌🏻😩😩😩

It was just healthy and delicious and the place was cute.“

“girlfriend said it was good so I tried it. was a solid 9/10 on any scale imaginable I'm picky af. I like a flop free cheesy light sauce crispy pie and they made it perfect. it's salty and not too much water content in the sauce FOR ONCE. was FASTER than their time estimate and its well worth $1 for what tastes like amazing breadsticks as your crust. best $15 8 cut in the 518 so far“

“That pork belly bao is a travesty for being that small but being the same price as the chicken sando it’s ridiculous honestly,Lucky corner has one three times the size for cheaper 6 bucks is crazy for that one bite slider portion to price is trash here but the food is really good“

“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!“

“Amazing bakery but I went twice this week once at 720am and an other day around 11am, both days they were sold out of all rugulah and a lot of other things. So if you can get it, it’s amazingly good!“

“HANDS DOWN BEST BAGELS IN THE CAPITAL DISTRICT!!!!!“

“Phenomenal food and drink! Look forward to every time we’re able to come grab a bite at The Ruck!“

“Off Shore has a range of delicious fresh fish. Salmon was amazing. They have an adjoining restaurant should you want the cooking done for you. Very reasonable prices. Run by good people. Been in business since 1976.“

“We had a funeral June 28 2025 in Waterford and the day before the family decided on having a luncheon after the services. We didn’t think we would find a place and on Graduation weekend made the odds more against it, My husband Tom and Brother in Law Keith stopped in McGrieveys and Terry said he could accommodate us. ( even though we didn’t know how many people.). Terry went above and beyond taking orders, bartending, and bringing out the food. We Thank you Terry and McGrieveys staff for accommodating us on such short notice and a difficult day for our family. The Brown family“

“Ever changing, like the seasons, Forts Ferry Farm offers their produce and baked goods at local farmers' markets and occasionally, at pop-up markets on site. The taste of any of their produce reminds one of the reason to shop at local farms. The salted chocolate chip cookies ain't bad either. Look for habanada peppers, the fruitiness of a habanero without the heat. There's a farm store in Hudson, NY.“

“Fantastic experience earlier this month having Sunday Brunch with my son and our American cousins at Lost & Found. This place is great! The real America, in Albany, away from the well-beaten tourist tracks. Friendly service, great menu, tasty food, and the proprietor is a gent - even let us get group photos on the stage as he hadn’t a band at the time! It was a wet Sunday but we just had a great family get together inside. Not that far from the city centre and worth finding. Very good value as well.“

“great environment and amazing food“

“Best food around. I’ve been getting food from here weekly since before the pandemic started. I highly recommend this restaurant. The workers are the sweetest, the prices are great, the food is high quality and delicious!“

“Grate spot to hang before and after shows at Lark Hall (~);}“

“My husband and I got married at Lucas. We had the time of our lives and can’t believe how amazing the day went. From first tour and booking to packing everything up and leaving, Maeve was absolutely phenomenal to work with. She was smart, easy to work with, responsive, attentive, understanding, and just a calm and collected figure the day of the wedding. We rented all of Lucas and the Garden for our wedding. We did brunch so there was a lot of logistics I was quite worried about since the timeline in the morning was so tight to do an 11am ceremony.

Everything went off without a hitch, we had to delay the start time by 5 additional minutes and that was no problem for them! The venue was decorated beautifully. The front lounge is so sunny in the morning and the space felt so warm and welcoming when people first came in. It was raining on our wedding (good luck for us!) so it was so nice having people walk into this beautiful cozy space. The garden is picture perfect. It felt like a dream. It is not a big space so the space would not work for a larger wedding. The garden is where both our ceremony and our reception took place. The staff flipped the space during cocktail hour (by the bar and front area). When they flipped the space, they made sure to include the specials I requested like putting the centerpieces, program, and name plates out. Maeve even realized I forgot table numbers and quickly went in the back and made some for my 5 tables so guests knew where they were going.

We had a few extras that were around the venue in lieu of dancing and all the little nooks and crannies helped fill the space. For events, they have the buffet on the back wall which was perfect and out of the way. The bar was always packed, and everyone said the bartenders were friendly and fast—just what you want at a wedding. I literally had no complaints from any of my guests and everyone raved about the spot. Most of the guests had never been there and couldn’t believe how different and unique Lucas was from traditional event spaces.
The venue was able to play my playlist over their Bluetooth speakers, Maeve helped control the music for us walking down the aisle and the recessional. The venue was so prepared, it was obvious that they had done several events and are true event professionals. They even let us bring everything the night before and put our flowers in cold storage for us overnight to keep them fresh. We had a few large and bulky items and I had lots of bins. I was worried they weren’t going to have the room to store stuff overnight but Maeve took everything to the back and told me that it wouldn’t be a problem which was a huge relief. I created my own flower centerpieces and was really worried that they would die from Friday to Saturday if they weren’t put somewhere safe. My last rave will be about how unlike traditional wedding venues, Lucas doesn’t nickel and dime you. There were no stupid BS fees like napkin overuse fee, coffee creamer fee, set up fee, Bluetooth speaker fee, etc. The contract stated everything and that is what we were charged which is amazing because most venue I feel look at weddings like a cash grab and Lucas didn’t do that.

Only small con is that one of my guests said the roof in the garden was leaking in one small spot so I would recommend that someone looks at the roof ASAP before we start getting summer thunderstorms.“

“We went to Norrine's for dinner last night and it's definitely a "do over"! I got the stacked fried haddock. It's out of this world! Our waitress Kathy was very accommodating and very funny. We never laughed so hard!Our entire dining party was impressed with everything. Kudos to the chef. We will be back! Five Star for sure!“

“*Green Book Safe*

I was immediately greeted and my order was taken.

Very courteous & professional. I was slightly early before the kitchen was open, yet was still proffered a menu.

One local behind the bar even provided insight to my newcomer experience.

Based on today's interaction, I would return and recommend.“

“Great spot and awesome staff!!“

“Can’t say enough about this place! The egg and cheese biscuit and the tahini butter and jam sunflower toast were amazing! We enjoyed the cold brew as well. Cool industrial decor. This is a must stop place for us on our way to upstate and VT. Thanks for the great service!“
