“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!“

“Looking for a brunch place on a Sunday while visiting and VERY happy to have found Ambition. The staff was very friendly and accommodating for our party of six, never feeling put-off by the size of the party, and were kind enough to move some tables to make it all work. The server was friendly and efficient, quick to bring the food as it was ready, as well as with any additional requests (thanks, Maddie!). The food was DELICIOUS--great blueberry pancakes, eggs, breakfast potatoes, strawberry french toast, omelets, blueberry waffles, and more. The Bloody Mary was outstanding--on par with The Ruby Slipper in New Orleans. DEFINITELY recommended by everyone in our party!“

“I order almost all my teas from Whistling Kettle. Since I discovered them, I have turned into an addict for their Autumn Haze and Lemon Almond Panna Cotta teas. I have always been pretty selective about the teas I drink and this company goes above and beyond with their blends and choices. Their packaging and shipping is also first class! Please make one more batch of Autumn Haze this season so I can buy you out till next year's.“

“Gotta have my Dunks.“

“I'm staying at Rivers casino where this star bucks is located. Im treated like I'm at a 5 star restaurant in Manhattan. This is my 3rd visit to the Starbucks here and each visit I'm greeted with a smile and a pleasant voice and over the top service

“This Starbucks is hands down one of my favorite spots! The team here always goes above and beyond to provide exceptional customer service, making every visit a pleasure. I hope one day they start offering this Cucoon sleeve, a game-changing dual-use heat sleeve that unfolds into a napkin. It would be the perfect eco-friendly addition to their already amazing experience! #CupCucoon“

“The robot that tracks my movements thanks that I go to Starbucks when the traffic light stops me immediately nearby for a few minutes. This shows how fast they think Starbucks can serve you. I'm throwing up some stars for Starbucks because I'm glad they're in the area.“

“I split my Starbucks time between a couple of local stores depending on my day-& this Starbucks is the all around best! They have assembled a great team of people, the store is very clean & bathrooms maintained(which I don’t see in other locations), the staff are very competent, reliable , kind & nice! They get my order right every time & they don’t mind if I stay a bit to read a book. The management here should teach others(is home office listening?) Thank you-see you all soon!“
