“Went here today for the first time and omg the food was to die for! Even the ice cream at the end was so good! I love that you get your own personal hot pot and the food comes out so quickly. For everything they offer it was the perfect price. All the staff was super friendly! Highly recommend and will definitely be back!“

“the bartender ( Giovanni) was amazing. He made thr best margaritas in town. His service was so perfect I can give him 10 🌟 but I just can do 5. Honestly! the BEST BARTENDER EVER!! and I'm pretty sure is bilingual as well. GREAT JOB GIOVANNI!!“

“I went to this place to pick up breakfast for two. The place was very clean and bright and the staff was very attentive. I’m trying to diet so I got a poached egg on toast and it was great. Loved whatever they seasoned it with. The other party got a big breakfast: eggs hash browns, etc and was raving about it. Nice place !“

“Went here on Thursday September 26 2024 for dinner and drinks with two of my friends and the food was good and the staff were kind but only problem was that the drinks were long after we ordered them“

“Grappa 72 has always been my favorite. ❤️here’s why. I hadn’t been in awhile- used to go frequently, so I grabbed a to-go order of their excellent fettuccini bolognese and some bruschetta to take home after a very long drive- ❤️❤️❤️and had a glass of wine at their friendly and comfortable bar while I waited. It’s 100 degrees outside- so I wasn’t dressed (shorts and an ocean city tee lol) but it was early.. so I popped in to wait for my order. From reception to bar to the chef popping out with my order- to the other lovely guests who were popping in as well and enjoying banter and kind conversation.. the bartender primo making everyone happy- I can’t tell you how much that atmosphere warms my soul. Good people, great food, no pretensions, phenomenal service.. and I can attest from so many previous visits- a warm and inviting dining room where when they have music you never want to leave. Soooo well done from every aspect. Thanks Grappa!!! I’ll be back soon, I’ve missed you while I’ve been away! Did I mention the bolognese? It’s better than my own- and that’s saying a lot! 😉Sincerely, Mary“

“Office too cold in the summer? No problem, Kuma’s delicious soup will warm you right up! The Tonkotsu is amazing, the Tori is really good especially if you are new. This place is a gem!“

“Best collard greens I've ever had, pulled pork was awesome. Baked beans were tasty and I don't recommend trying the peach cobbler because you will be hooked for life“

“Great food and service plus very friendly people there!“

“Great service and prices. love the lunch buffet!“

“Just ate lunch here. Food was perfect. They even use purple rice in the bibim bap. Loved it. Cozy atmosphere. Great service. Will go back.“

“Great happy hour spot. Don't arrive during happy hour for a dinner table without a reservation on a weekend night. High tops are seated for dinner guests only when guests finally are done with the long happy hour.

Drink specials at happy hour are worth the trip but someone has to wait in line at the door at 4:30 for high top seating. Meeting people at happy hour is easy because seating is close and you can hear everyone's chatter.

Well staffed. Good service. Catering takeout is easy and consistent.

Parking: EV charging for a fee.“

“I walked in and felt welcome. Instantly the guy behind the counter really went out of his way to make sure I had a good recommendation. I got the salmon over rice and easily the best salmon I’ve had in the last 15 years. It was incredible and I liked it so much that I was angry when I ate the last bite, because I wanted to keep eating.“

“This place is so nice and the guy they had out front was awesome. Very friendly and good at making conversation that was appropriate for the situation. As soon as we walked in I could smell how good this place was going to be. The overall atmosphere was a really nice mix of casual and more upscale. Very nice seating arrangements and I loved the nice blue fake fire place. I would definitely recommend them. We also went during a time when it was not very busy about 4pm yet there were still a handful of tables full despite the unpopular time.“

“Terrific food, great service!“

“Unbelievable atmosphere. Awesome Bartenders Drinks and the Food is Fantastic. You need to try this place!!!“

“Wonderful food, atmosphere and staff!“

“to the people commenting on the lack of ambiance...? i think it is fine. for me the music is "ambient" enough, along with the lovely wall mural, and photos showing what the food is....not to mention the collection of both holly AND "bolly"wood stars and starlets, adorning a back side wall. the dining area is always SPOTLESSLY CLEAN, and the bathroom shines. they keep the prices very reasonable, which is a HUUGE plus for me. the food is always great, fresh, and tasty, not to mention a lot healthier than the traditional american diet. staff is attentive. i never felt they "watch to see how many dishes you take", as someone suggested. they are likely making sure people get FRESH plates with every visit to the steam tables., since this is actually a restaurant/buffet health law...i have never ever, once felt like they wanted to "rush" me out. they are always very welcoming and accommodating.. AWESOME SPOT. thank you, clifton park "shalimar".“

“This is one of my favorite places to eat around Latham, I enjoy the food and the warm atmosphere and service from staff. I haven't gotten any better tasting lamb kabab around here but at Zaitoon!!!“

“Had our wedding reception here this past weekend-service was exceptional, food was incredible, and Taylor went above and beyond to try and make sure everything was perfect for us. Guests told us it was one of the best weddings they’d ever been to. Highly recommend“

“Just this evening, I ordered take out from the wrong location. I called Stuyvesant plaza instead of Slingerlands. When I called Stuyvesant about the mistake the manager said, “ No problem”. What’s your address ? I will drive it out to you. Within a 1/2 hour this awesome guy Justin pulled into my driveway with all our food. Hot food and cold salad !! Thank you. Way to go!!“

“10/10 recommend always. Great service and always an amazing atmosphere!“

“Absolutely amazing, huge portions, amazing homemade pasta, great service!“

“Absolutely delicious every single time. Laid back artistic atmosphere, great people, the chefs do an amazing job. If you order medium steak you get a medium steak right on the money. Thank you Maxons for another great dinner for our family!“

“Family and I go a few times a year. Definitely like this place. Very common for locals to also come. Make sure to call for reservations during busy parts of the day. They also do take out as well. My go to is the shredded tofu with noodles. This time I happen to get a Vegetarian Spring Roll. Very good as well. I do like the Summer rolls as well. Next time I’ll get a summer roll ^_^“

“We had a joyous birthday celebration at my son’s favorite restaurant. Akanomi’s staff and sushi chefs, itamae, excelled at all endeavors. Vivan was spot on with her suggestions and service. She anticipated all of our needs, especially with our children. The chicken soba soup, tuna carpaccio and Hawaii Rolls were our favorites. Then the sashimi / sushi mixed roll party docked. It was stunning in presentation, offerings and taste. Oh my, it was very impressive. A most wonderful time was had by all.“

“Food is wonderful. Wait staff very well informed. We always ask for Janelle as our Server. My wife loves the Duck recipes and the Escargot. We can’t wait for October fest. We are there every week for the month of October“

“My experience was exceptional tonight in these days and times. When my order for Prime Rib was not cooked to order, they replaced it not only with the correct preferred doneness, but it was replaced in a timely manner and with a genuine desire to please me as a customer. Kudos to the manager that is in charge of the Prime Rib clientele - which is exceptional in the Clifton Park area. 👍“

“This is a MUST every time we travel down from Maine to visit friends. Amazing food, creative wine selection, and the BEST service. We are customers for life ❤️thank you Athos! Ali, (aka Bob Ross), keep on keeping on!“

“My husband myself and my mother went there tonight to celebrate my birthday August 24. We’ve never been there before and I just want to say that the service was fantastic! The food was fantastic! Our waiter really outdid herself and we will definitely go there again.“

“We were surprised and delighted by how fresh the food was at this restaurant. We wandered in about 8 PM on a very slow night and yet our sashimi was absolutely fantastic and all our other dishes were beautifully presented. We would 100% return to this restaurant. It’s a hidden gem“

“Best Bagels and Sandwiches in town!“

“We hosted our wedding at Albany Distilling and I can not speak highly enough of our experience. Natalie was amazing to work with and the staff were wonderful day of. All of our guests could not stop talking about the drinks, staff, and atmosphere. I would highly recommend for any event!“

“This is authentic sushi served in a no frills atmosphere. Put down that grocery store fake sushi and treat yourself to the real deal. The pacing is slower here, but it's worth the wait. They are BYOB, so pick up an adult beverage to enjoy while you dine in.“

“Food and service were absolutely outstanding!! definitely recommend the Eggplant burrata sandwich.. it is out of this world amazing!! I can't wait to come back and try something different“

“Pollo alla Rusa, perfection, bread and butter, perfection, vegetables, perfection, portion sizes ample. BYOB Chef seasoned my meal expertly! Atmosphere could use a bit of upgrading. Best real Italian meal I have had in Florida.“

“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!“

“A diamond hidden in plain sight! Don’t miss scallion pancake, fried pot stickers, chicken satay with peanut sauce, tom kha soup, drunken noodles, basil fried rice ... we were stuffed to the gills, but then we saw the dessert menu. Sticky rice and mango ... and 4 forks please! 🤣 I’m uncomfortably full (my fault) but can’t wait to go back.“

“After enjoying their wings during the Wing Walk I decided to order myself dinner last night. I ordered fried chicken dinner. I had the leg and thigh and they were huge. My dinner came with candied yams, collard greens, potato salad, and a corn bread muffin. Everything was outstanding. I can’t believe I have never ordered from there prior to this. I will be ordering again and making this a staple from now on. Drop everything and order dinner tonight you won’t regret it!“

“Fast and friendly service! My toddler and I loved the food. And we enjoyed the retro diner vibes and chatting with employees who made us feel welcome!“

“Staff were great, Doreen is as sweet as can be. The strip steaks were amazing and literally cut with a butter knife. Will def be back.“
