“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“

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.“

“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!“

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

“Been coming here since before they changed ownership. They maintained the charm of the bar while adding some much needed upgrades. Food is great, drinks are cold and affordable. All the bartenders I've encountered have been friendly and make an effort to get to know you.“

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

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

“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 food nice people love the place“

“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“

“We stopped in to our first time tonight at a little before 6pm. Promptly seated, great menu, cool atmosphere. Natasha A was our server, and was exceptional. Sweet, bubbly personality, great recommendations, and attentive without hovering. Food was awesome. Shrimp ceviche, Birria fries, and burritos were all delicious. Large portions. Will definitely be back!“

“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!“

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

“nice local Tavern. always friendly..“

“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“

“My wife and I went out for dinner for our Anniversary. Very diverse menu...everything tasted great. Server was super pleasant and helpful. Noise level in the dining room was a little high since it looked to be a baseball team there with their families eating after their game! Will definitely go back and also try their take-out pizza side next time“

“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!“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 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.“

“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!“

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

“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 💯“

“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.“

“I did a pick up order for turkey bacon sandwich with fries and my mom got corn beef Reuben with onion rings. Food was delicious, great portions and price. I was in a large moving van and there was plenty of parking. Close to Albany airport too which is nice.“

“We had a really good experience at Ralph’s. It was a quaint little place that has obviously been in business for a long time. The staff was friendly. The place was clean and welcoming. Started off with medium buffalo wings and french fries with beef gravy. For dinner I had a half portion of penne with two meatballs and one hot sausage. My wife had the fish fry with french fries. The french fries were cooked exceptionally well crispy on the outside soft on the inside. The beef gravy was delicious and salty. Just like I expected definitely homemade. My half portion of pasta was definitely more than enough for one person the meatballs were tender, and the sausage was flavorful. I got it with the marinara sauce, which was a little spicy to my surprise, but it was still good. My wife enjoyed the fish fry said it was delicious in the cocktail sauce and tartar sauce was good. The wings in my opinion are one of the best in the area. Great flavor cooked exceptionally well crispy on the outside tender on the inside indefinitely fresh it’s a must try if you like chicken wings. We also ordered a sheet pizza to go with Italian sweet peppers and sausage turned out to be delicious. We heated it up the next day. It’s a must try for looking for a good place for dinner. That’s not very expensive but has good quality food. Recommend giving it a try.“

“I recently ordered a custom Two Protein Bowl and was impressed by how fresh the ingredients were, especially since I went with no sauce or seasoning. The grilled chicken and tofu paired perfectly with the brown rice, but the real highlight was the sweet and spicy balance of pineapple and jalapenos. I really enjoyed the crunch from the almonds, sunflower seeds, and sesame seeds alongside the creamy avocado and crisp veggies. It’s a filling, high-quality meal that offers solid value and arrived exactly as ordered...definitely a great spot for a fresh, customized bowl.“

“WOW! The food was delicious and the portions were HUGE! I had the chimichanga and even smothered in cheese sauce the tortilla was nice and crispy and the shredded chicken was not dried out at all like I've had at other places. Will definitely return .....I'm anxious to try the fried ice cream!“

“Great night . I didnt Get his name but the gentleman who was out front checking ID’s for Sarper Guvan tonight was so nice and helpful. I took my mom for a night out for Mother’s Day/ her 76 birthday. He was so welcoming and kind. Thank you again“

“serving staff was excellent with kids' service. The space allowed for movement, standing. Tables are spread apart. Was comfortable and friendly. Pizza was very good, crispy pan crust.“
