“Went to Junior's yesterday for the NBA game and some MLB games. Service was great, bar was very busy but one of the bartenders Vanessa came right over and got me set up with a drink and a menu. after giving me some time to think she promptly came over and took more order and food came out very quick. food was delicious as always. both bartenders were awesome. I choose to come to Junior's over other bars because the staff always provide the best service and make Junior's a fun place to drink and watch sports. 10/10 experience“

“I’ve found my “Cheers!”
Yes I’m showing my age with that reference - 80’s babyyyy - but this dive bar is IT!
This place has some of the best cocktails I’ve had, easily rivaling overpriced drinks in Manhattan - shout out to Tom!
If you have no idea what you want to drink, no worries, talk to the bartenders, they’ll help you, might even whip up something creative on the spot.
Monday nights belong to Brian the bacon guru, baby I eat pork again when I roll up here on a Monday (I pay for it later too, well worth it, lol).

The patrons are some of the most diverse and amazingly chill group of folks I’ve encountered since moving from the multicultural NYC life - Bx to be exact - to the parts up yonder.

The owner, Joe, is one of the kindest humans, and honey like attracts like, because his team definitely match his energy, they are hands down, some of my favorite people up here! Special shout out to Victoria & Corrine ❤️!

When you go, chill hard, enjoy big, and tip OD!“

“Wings wings wings utica club“

“Well if you know, you know.“

“We had our book club here and it was fantastic. The upstairs room is so beautiful and stylish. The food was DELICIOUS and very unique. Highly recommend the biscuit flight and whipped ricotta. Cocktails were fresh takes on old classics. Staff was very gracious. I can’t wait to come back for dinner!“

“friendly bartenders, clean bar & affordable drinks!“

“Searching for places to eat in the local area and this place popped up. I don’t normally leave reviews but I feel compelled as the food was absolutely exquisite. This place has good vegan options as well. The Dirty Little Birdy signature cocktail may be the best drink I’ve ever had! Just annoyed I had to share it. Coming back on Friday!“

“Believe the hype! Casey Finn’s delivers for service, the finest Miller High Life and Jameson whiskey, and I heard that the Ruebens on St Patrick’s Day are the jam.Was sincerely hoping for the rumored bartender vs customer fight (see review from a few years ago), but despite a brief genuine moment of concern (“are you ladies lost?”), we made friends and will be back.“

“Always an event everyday of the week here! Food is great and has a buzzing atmosphere with lots of smiles. Such a friendly staff and tavern is well decorated and very clean! A MUST SEE!“

“great service, good food, friendly clientele“

“Cheers type atmosphere during the day through afternoons,could use a Happy Hour 🍺😎“

“My sisters and I went there to try it out and we had an amazing experience! The staff was so friendly. Our food was delicious! We will definitely be going back!!! The owner even came over and said hello!“

“Dj Gordo tonight get ready cause we on 🔥🔥🔥“

“Ordered from Uber eats. Actually read what they are trying to do and I loved it. Cheap meals that are extremely tasty. I just got the chicken curry and it's seasoned very well. The spice was great for me but for some it could easily be to much. If you ever have to turn it down for a broader reach please keep an option for the original.“

“Great celebration! Awesome band of 3 great local legends!“

“love Brenda ❤️ best bartender“

“I have nothing to say bad or good about this bar I came to sing some KARAOKE yet I went to late to put a song in and I also wanted to try the food yet the bar was so packed couldn't even get a soda back to back people , I know now I need to get there early enough to do what was planned, i will get back with this review when or If i plan to go back“

“Super
90 sport bar is one Of the best place to hang out the people who working here really customer friendly they have very wonderful communication skill, and they treat like a friends and Lot of crowd coming every evening so I feel this is one of the best place and whenever people there are tired they can check out this place.They really feel happy and this is located on the Albany street especially very close to Albany street and north Brandywine Avenue, intersection and close to highway, close to downtown everyone.Check out“

“Whenever I fly out of Albany Airport, I always stop by Hudson's for a pre-flight drink. I've consistently had positive experiences—friendly bartenders and quick service every time. It's also conveniently located near most of the airlines I fly with, which makes it an easy stop. I haven’t tried the food yet, so I can’t speak to that, but I definitely recommend grabbing a drink here if you’ve got a little time before your flight!“

“My most favorite restaurant. The salads , prime rib, hummingbird cake. I so look forward to going to dinner there. It is such a wonderful place and so cozy. It is our favorite. ❤️“

“lovely atmosphere with delicious gourmet American cuisine. it was a lovely new year dinner. staff very friendly“

“Fun atmosphere! Seriously need to go on my birthday for the “birthday boot”😆“

“Very Good Spot Eat, the entire bourbon crew is great. Sara stuck out to me, I asked her the special and she made sure the Caesar Salad had no tomatoes which is great because I dislike them. Overall I’d give Sarah a 10/10 for service and making sure my order was correct. Thank you to the entire Bourbon Crew 💯“

“nice local Tavern. always friendly..“

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

“Out of town working, read the reviews, previous review guy walks out because Fox News was on. I was all in. I wish there was more of him around. makes my visit that much more enjoyable . if you are looking for food this is the wrong place. If you’re looking to drink and hang out and have a good time, this is it. Darts pool, Jamison and Guinness and other beers but no Bud Light. Locals are extremely friendly ,met several new friends on the first visit“

“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 food; really good beer selection; comfortable, casual and welcoming; outstanding service - we love this place! The food is creative, delicious, and nicely presented. The bartender/server was friendly, fun, and attentive, without being overbearing. We've been looking for a regular place, and this quickly became our go-to.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ The Pub = Good Times on Tap

The Pub nails it chill vibe, killer drinks, and staff who make you feel like a regular from the second you walk in. The music’s always on point, the crowd’s friendly, The Pub is where good nights turn into great stories.“

“Dee Dee's Tavern is a pub with a very strong sense of community. Equally as strong is the love that the patrons have for Dee Dee, herself. The drinks flow fast and everyone keeps a smile on their faces. You feel more at home with each interaction at Dee Dee's Tavern! Good people who just want to unwind, have a good time, and mind their own business. They also have Karaoke. My kind of place!“

“This place is one of best poke places I ever been too! The fish and seaweed salad tastes so delicious and fresh! Doesn’t have a fishy taste! The 518 burrito o (sushi burrito), wontons and dumplings are so good as well! I love this place! The employees are very nice as well! The restaurant has a very nice ambiance and I am very pleased of how clean the restaurant is!! Thank you poke bar! 😊
Excellent service, Juliana.“

“Just stopped in for a drink and ordered food to go. The staff was absolutely lovely and answered any and all questions. Food is reasonably priced for the portions and there's more than just Mexican style! Highly recommend the Salvadorean tamales! So good!! Will definitely be going back soon“

“I came here a few weeks ago to see Andrew Dismukes and we had such a great experience! This is an excellent venue for a comedy show. The venue is large and spacious, and it was easy to see and hear the performance from our seats.

The staff really made the experience even better. Ashley, our server, was incredibly friendly and kind. Jeremy, one of the security guards, was welcoming and excellent at his job. We also had an issue that the manager (I believe her name was Lori or Laura) helped us resolve and she was so kind and accommodating. She went out of her way to find us when she found out we had an issue, instead of us asking for her! It spoke volumes to us that the staff here really cared about our experience enough to seek us out and resolve the issue!!

One thing I really appreciated was that, unlike some comedy venues, there was no requirement to order food or drinks. This makes me as a customer feel more inclined to come back, as I’m not required to order something if I don’t want anything! My group did end up ordering anyway, and everything we had was great, so we were very satisfied. In one of the photos attached, I received a glass with my drink purchase. I am really happy to have it for my bar at home. Additionally, I would’ve loved to take a picture of how large the venue is inside. I don’t like photographing strangers, so I was unable to do so.

I would highly recommend this venue to anyone. When we’re back in town next year, we’ll definitely be coming back no matter who’s performing, as our experience was that good!“

“My group stopped in from out of town and had such a great experience! My dad is very particular about his food, especially when it comes to wings, and he was so impressed! Since he lives in Buffalo, he has a hard time eating chicken wings out of town, and he found that the wings here were just as good! He also absolutely loved the pizza. On top of the amazing food, our server Jackie was incredible. She was friendly and provided great service which made the experience even better. If you’re in the area, I would definitely recommend stopping here. We’ll for sure be back next time we’re in town!“

“Dave & Busters in Albany, NY came in absolutely CLUTCH for us today! I had my son's 6th birthday party booked at Urban Air, but 20 minutes in, everyone had to evacuate due to a ceiling pipe bursting and causing a HUGE mess. Feeling stranded, a guest jokingly mentioned Dave & Busters, and after a couple minutes of thought, we decided to give it a shot. Not only did they accommodate our entire group of people(about 25), we also recieved fantatic service and was able to enjoy the rest of my son's special day. Thank you so much to the staff in Albany, NY today for helping us save this day. We appreciate it so much, and will absolutely return in the future!“

“Wait staff was excellent. Both steaks had to be taken back because they were raw, we asked for medium. when they returned with the steaks they were still not medium but we ate them anyways. The sides were 12 to 15 dollars a piece for about two scoops of food. The macaroni and cheese tasted like it came right out of the box and just had cheese sprinkled on it. There really was no flavor to the steaks. I did get the bernaise sauce which had a flavor of honey mustard, terrible. Fancy place but no quality with food. It took over an hour to get our food and we were there when it opened. We always went to the Barnsider and we wanted to try something new. I would have rather eaten at the Barnsider anyday over this.“

“Me and a couple of the boy pulled up to chilis after a long morning of fishing at Henry Hudson park, where we didn’t catch anything. We were down in the dumps, but when we decided to pull up to chilis and walked in, the staff were incredible and got us a table right away. Our server, Rena was incredible, and being the broke high school students we are going to college in August, showed us a ton of things on the menu that helped us out and made our day.“
