“Delicious meal and top notch service by Tabatha and her crew.“

“the service was great. Had a problem ordering online for pick up, so I called to see if order & payment went through and the lady who took my call was extreamly patient and checked for me. luckily it did go through and even let me know when I could pick it up as I was disconnected from there sight before I was given a time. when I arrived the same lady I spoke with on the phone gave me my order and said it just came out, and it was very hot just as she said. Every thing was great, and so much food. I even have enough leftovers for dinner tonight. Can't thank them enough for the great service, delicious food. Eat in , or order take out you won't be disappointed.“

“We stopped here on Christmas Eve . When we pulled in the manager was holding the door for a couple of customers so I asked if they were still open , he replied with a smile if u get in we can serve you guys before we close . We’re glad we did bc the food was delicious, our waitress was kind and friendly. Overall a great experience“

“My significant other and I come here every Friday now as a regular date night. Our favorite waitress Susan is an absolute sweetheart. She is always making sure everything is exactly the way we like it. Amazing service every time we visit.“

“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!“

“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.“

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

“Probably the best chicken over rice I’ve had... I’m even putting this above halal guys in NYC. Not to mention great customer service, was given fried chicken while waiting for our food to come out 🙌🏻 seriously delicious. Great food and people! Will be coming back.“

“Great vibe! Delicious breakfast & terrific bloody Mary’s and other cocktails..!“

“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.“

“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!“

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

“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!“

“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!!!“

“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.“

“The manager David, Joe, and at the front of the house Seth deserve a huge thank you for making our engagement dinner so special and memorable. We had braised ribs were delicious , clam chowder, French onion soup (which was the best we ever had) along with the mushroom ravioli was such a wonderful experience. The fireplace added so much comfort and ambience we couldn’t be happier to celebrate here!“

“Best hot dogs I’ve had in my life. Seriously. Kevin cares about what he does and it shows!“

“beautiful venue with great food“

“We've returned to this charming diner over and over, and it never fails to impress! It has that classic coffee shop vibe we cherished back in the day. The homemade cooking truly shines here—it’s comfort food at its finest. You can’t help but love the welcoming neighborhood atmosphere.

Katie, one of our favorite servers, is a true gem! She remembers all her regulars by name and always greets them with a warm smile. And the desserts? Absolutely divine—you can’t leave without trying one!

Everything about this place is on point: the cleanliness, the delicious food, and the attentive waitstaff who treated us with kindness and speed. Our meals arrived quickly and at a fantastic price. With such friendly service and mouthwatering dishes, we can’t wait to come back for another visit!“

“Always enjoy Martel’s! Miss them at the Teletheater!“

“***2024 Update***Under new ownership Crossroads has completely turned around food quality is very good and the service has been great. Highly recommend checking them out!“

“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!“

“Some of my co-workers brought me out to The Copper Crow for my birthday! It was a wonderful experience. • Nice host, prompt seating. • Attentive and knowledgeable server. • Extensive draft, cocktail & mocktail list. • Great food, good portions, cooked well. • Excellent desserts. I look forward to going back.“

“I tried their seitan wings. Super yummy!“

“A great day today with a dear friend who has finally moved back to the Albany area.🥰 We have been friends for decades, and I even visited her when she lived in Denver, Colorado. We had a great lunch at Cafe Madison on Northern Boulevard in Albany. She had a yogurt parfait with granola, and fresh fruit, all topped off with enough whipped cream to blanket this group. 🤣 I had a salad of mixed baby greens, walnuts, dried cranberries,poached pears, goat cheese, and a delicious apple cider vinaigrette. Our waitress, Ashley, was a delight. The food was great, but she's the reason I'll be back. Great customer service skills. She loves her job, and it's reflected in her positive attitude.“

“The naga chicken sandwich was AMAZING and my partner really enjoyed her crispy chicken sandwich. Love having a halal spot nearby. The prices are super reasonable- think McDonald’s prices for HIGH quality food. Staff is so friendly and quick, and it’s a cute little spot. We live nearby and will be back!

Dietary restrictions: Really great pork-free and vegetarian options!“

“Right from the start, I believe this place is run by a passionate group of people. It’s welcoming, and the service is incredible. The Subway sandwich was massive and, most importantly, flavorful. I highly recommend this place to anyone and would definitely add it to my list of go-tos.“

“Nice place....Good service and good food“

“Nice location on the Hudson River, good outside seating area, inside seating is good.\n\nWe all got blackened chicken sandwich, it was good, but a little too blackened, very peppery taste, chilotle sauce on top of the peppery flavor was a bit too spicy.\n\nWaitress was wonderful, we were there for over two hours, she was attentive but not pesky.\n\nA bit pricey.“

“Great food and service. They had no problem changing a menu item to leave out the garlic. [allergy]“

“The food was delicious and the atmosphere was so welcoming! I will absolutely be returning.“

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

“Its date night , so we stopped for dinner before the STYX concert and our waiter Shawn ( Sean?) was superb ! Ordered a Peach Bellini that was dynamite ! Like a frozen dessert ! Hubby had a pineapple mule that was stupendous also . The fish tacos were very good ...texture and taste were spot on . The fish and chips were excellent . The fried fish was delightfully light , not heavy . The coleslaw was bland but everything else was yummy . And finally, we had to get dessert . Decided on pineapple upside down cheesecake . Absolutely fabulously delicious!“

“My parents started taking me here since I was only enough to remember. Now as an adult I use it to catch up with good friends and eat my favorite foods with such good prices! prices! I even introduced a few to this classic spot and they always ask when we're going back. Food that always hit the spot-5 Stars every time.“

“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.“

“Awesome spot 💯 Food and prices were exceptional, the bartender was super friendly, and she was even cool with me taking over the jukebox for about 45 minutes 😂 Would go out of my way to stop again!“

“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!“

“Thanks for the pickle pizza!! You made this pregnant lady very happy 🥰🥒🍕“

“Always great food, great service and great prices!!!“

“Always a wonderful atmosphere as we walk in! Restaurant is always completely clean and we rarely ever wait for service. Kate is our absolute favorite waitress and she is BEYOND fast and remembers our orders to a T! The wings as well as the kids meals are excellent! Zero complaints ever! I highly recommend over and over again!“

“Took my dad here for his 50th birthday, group of 4 and it was less than $120. All of us got a decent amount of food, plus an order of wings. Service here was top notch, shout out to Katherine for her great service. They sent out free samples every 30 mins and for our first time going we got to try one of their Brownies. The samples were great, especially the apple cobbler, the brownie was also solid. The actual bbq was pretty good, I'd personally recommend the pulled pork and the smoked turkey. The brisket was a little dry, it was a lean cut, and the wings tasted great but also just a little dry, but not bad by any means. We also really appreciated the free sandwich cards for our next visit, will definitely come back to use that.“

“Our first time in and we are so happy we chose to stop! The pork chop dinner was fantastic!! Our waitress, Breadan, was awesome! She made our experience perfect! We wouldn't change anything about our visit ❤️ -Richard and Jeannie (see, I have to spell my name for everyone too 🙃)“

“Samson's Motto should be: Service that Sells!!!! Food quality, quantity, service and pricing beyond expectation!“

“Highly recommend. Our go to spot for breakfast at a locally owned diner.“

“We stopped here on a Wednesday before a show at the arena. We were packed in like sardines, with nowhere left to sit and the kitchen had run out of food. And yet the place still felt chill and welcoming. The bartender/owner was attentive and super friendly, despite the absolute chaos that must have been happening behind the bar. Any employees we saw were friendly and informal. Exactly what you want from a dive in Albany.

I have social anxiety and so rarely go out to pubs. But I will absolutely be going back here. Hopefully when the kitchen still has some food left.“

“First time there today. Totally awesome! Great neighborhood bar, food was great and reasonably priced. Staff a lot of fun!“

“awesome ppl and place. never have an issue with our orders.“

“Good vibes great service Good food awesome drinks great place to hang with friends and have some good times“

“Great food, fresh ingredients, no table service but plenty space to sit down in or outside. I'd recommend the chicken shawarma, hummus and pita or any grill sandwich

Vegetarian options: Falafel, different salads, hummus and pita, veggie platter or grilled sandwiches

Wheelchair accessibility: There's a ramp next to the main entrance of the building, restrooms stall wide enough for handicap people in wc“
