Vice & Virtue Restaurant and Cocktail Bar

This is my second time here and again, I left disappointed. Our service was slow. My cocktail was not even drinkable and I had to send it back. The $25.00 Charcuterie board literally had sliced deli meat and cheese, 5 crackers and very few items actually advertised. Our meals were ok; not great, not terrible either. I really want to love this place, but unfortunately I won’t be back. I do not recommend.

I love this restaurant. The food is great! I highly recommend it!

A really great experience. Temperature and texture on everything was spot on. Dirty Thai chicken thighs were so crispy and hot, with an excellent vinegar slaw. Cheesesteaks were served on crusty bread, the shaved steak was tender and toppings were excellent. Fresh cut fries were also crispy as they should be.

Place had a funky smell which takes away from the look. The drinks were not good and it was made worse by the smell. The bar stools are so low we felt like children sitting at the kids table.

Absolutely loved my visit to this new bar! The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, making sure our glasses were never empty. The cocktail menu was creative and the drinks were expertly crafted. The attention to detail in both the drinks and the service makes this bar a standout.

Finally a fun and upscale place in Schenectady fresh food, fresh vibe. The steaks were great, the watermelon Moscow mule was fire. Our server was attentive and knowledgeable, can't wait to go back

Too many amazing sounding cocktails on the menu to choose, not a bad complaint to have! We'll have to go back to try more! Didn't try the food, but the atmosphere was great and they had live music that was also really quite enjoyable!

Went there last weekend with my partner around 9. Wanted to sit at a table but was told I had to order my drinks at the bar, which I found odd for the "up scale vibe" I thought they were going for, but okay. As i was waiting for my drinks, the cook came from the BOH asking quit loudly, if he could shut the kitchen down. So now I feel as if I can not order food even though ur website states ur open till 11 and not stating kitchen closes earlier than that. So scratch the food idea, we will just have a drink. Which IMO, could have been much better. My partners margarita tasted horrible in all honesty. The last thing I am to comment on is the decor. I was so very confused. I thought this was supposed to be a classy place, but instead, I got "I don't know what kind of restaurant I want to be" vibe. Even the music was an odd choice. I was extremely uncomfortable and most likely won't be back

Everything was really wonderful about this place. But if you are Gen X like me then you need to go here!

I had Mojo Chicken thighs and my husband had Chicken Caprese. I thought food was just okay, little blunt and not so flavorful but my husband loved his and mine, so my opinion is really personal preference I would say. This is a big restaurant so maybe you can just walk in on Friday Saturday for dinner to take a table.

***TLDR: Hot, weird smell, waited 65 minutes for our food (a burger and a salad) bad experience with allergy.***

I have a gluten allergy so I called head to ask about options, I was told "every menu item has a gluten free option". Usually this statement is a red flag but the person I spoke to was convincing.

At the place, I asked the hostess and waiter, same stock answer "everything can be made gluten free". Alas, after I placed my order, the waiter returned to tell me the only GF options were select salads or a a bunless burger, no fries. I'm not even convinced those options are celiac safe. I paid $18 and waited over an hour for a beef patty alone on a plate.

Definitely not prepared to deal with allergies and intolerances. Worse even, they claim to cater to these medical needs with no regard to the health of customers- only their wallets.

Dietary restrictions: I was told "every menu item has a gluten free option". Only after I ordered did they come back to tell me my only options were salad or a a bunless burger, no fries. Absolutely not safe for those with allergies.
