New American Restaurants near Selkirk, NY

“Honestly, probably one of the best places I’ve eaten at, ever. The owner is super nice, and the food was even nicer. I watched the Mario movie while I ate the Stromboli, and for real, I’ve never felt more like a Pisano in my whole life.“

“Steven this one is for you.This review is for 485 Delaware Ave Albany.I came across this spot as a last minute I don't feel like cooking. Originally, I was going to grab just a slice of pizza.The place was empty but super clean. Before I go inside I see this guy come out, here is how the conversation went. Me:Hey how is the food inside. Guy: the food is delicious I promise.Me: you must work here.Guy: yes.Me: oh that's why you say the food is. If it's not good I know what car you're driving.. we both laugh.Him: tell them to make you a fresh small pizza.Me: okI must say the pizza was pretty darn good. I asked for a crispy bottom and they delivered. The dough was not thick. More like thin crust. Guys I'm 3 slices in. My new friend is Steven. You were right it was good thank you. We friends now. Oh wait shout to the gentleman that brought the pizza to my car.“

“Chez Mike doesn't disappoint. Often when my husband picks me up at the train station we have dinner there. The cocktails, food and service were as good or better than my meals in NYC and a great value for fine dining in the Capital District. Our server, Cameron, was friendly and attentive even when the place really filled up. Two delicious cocktails, a glass of wine, two appetizers, an entree and dessert were under $120. I actually like the strip mall vibe on the outside hiding the awesomeness inside. Chez Mike is a real find.“

“Lucky ? to have stopped at The Bunker during our stay in Greenbush. We sat at the bar and our server Lauren was so attentive, friendly and made a delicious dirty martini. The food was excellent! We ordered the salmon tacos and Philly cheesesteak, both scrumptious! Actually, I order fish tacos quite often and these were the best I’ve ever had. We will definitely stop in again when traveling through the are.“

“We have brunch at the city beer hall, pretty much every week. I am famous for having the same meal every time. The steak and eggs. The steak is always cooked perfectly medium rare. The eggs are sunny side up and delicious. Home fries and a side salad round out the perfect breakfast. My partner also always orders the same meal. Fried chicken with macaroni and cheese. When we go for dinner If you are a French onion soup fan I have a huge suggestion. The French onion soup is what I call a "destination dish " It is a delicious change from the norm. The service is always fast and friendly. The staff is knowledgeable. We have been customers here since the first week and will continue to be. The bar area, the dining room with its communal tables, the patio in the summer time. This has been our go to place for the past 13 years. Keep up the great work, the food, the hospitality, the overall experience is what a beer hall should be.“

“Mouth-watering and thoughtful menu with creative, nuanced and seasonal inspirations for both food and beverage options. I was very impressed by the shishito peppers, general tso’s chicken bites, french dip and the espresso martini. The apps were perfectly battered, crispy and flavorful. The French dip just hit so right- tender meat, savory au jus, warm, perfectly toasted bread. The fries were perfect- exactly what you’d imagine if you are craving fries! And the highlight of our entire night was our bartender Halsey. Her genuine care in curating our experience cannot be matched. She made great suggestions, interjected with playful humor, read when our group wanted time to chat amongst ourselves, and made a PHENOMENAL cocktail. I mean, the most serious espresso martini anyone could hope for without the overstated hipster flair. 10/10. Would go back just for her. Watching her interact with her other bar guests was also a treat- it’s easy to see how she can command the room & keeps a mighty fine bar! Will certainly be back!“

“Had a great meal at Dove and Deer. The specialty drinks were great, I recommend the Dewitt. The inverted nachos were delicious as well as the eggplant special. My favorite of the night was the green curry bowl. So fresh and delicious. I definitely recommend this place.“

“It’s a nice vibe in there. Lots of different types of people and I like the layout of the place. My only thing is that it was really warm in the bathroom like uncomfortably so, but it wasn’t that big a deal, just something I remember noticing. Live music is fire ? I can’t speak on the food I didn’t get any but the mixed drinks were type strong . I would return. Bartenders were quick and friendly enough.“

“Food was excellent. Went there before the Springsteen concert. They were full as anticipated. But that was the whole point. The food and atmosphere were great. The service was very slow and made us late. They kept saying they were busy for the concert but that was the entire point. So would go back when not rushed. Good food. But we had to rush so couldn't enjoy it.“

“Didn't know what to expect as i've never been here before but i walked in and saw the newly renovated restaurant and was pleasantly surprised. Sat by the cozy fireplace and I had Allie as a server, she was sweet, informative and attentive! I ordered the half order of wings and they were great, good sauce. I then got the lobster roll and was floored by the flavor. It's fresh and melts in your mouth, i finished the whole plate! Such a hidden gem in a chill upscale environment! Not too expensive at all. Will be back!“

“Great place. Very big selection of beer and on different sizes of pours. I have had the burgers in the past and they were all delicious. I recently had the pulled pork tacos. Oh, so good.Definitely a place to stop if you like beer and a good atmosphere.“

“Some of my co-workers brought me out to The Copper Crow for my birthday! It was a wonderful experience. • Nice host, prompt seating. • Attentive and knowledgeable server. • Extensive draft, cocktail & mocktail list. • Great food, good portions, cooked well. • Excellent desserts. I look forward to going back.“

“I used to go here with my parents until my father got it in his head not to patronize Tool's anymore. First time in quite some time I had lunch with a close friend and it was good. Turkey Club, very good French Fries, and diet Coke or Pepsi. If I'm ever in the area I definitely would eat here again. Still family run, which I like, very much.“

“First, the good... The raspberry oatmeal pancakes might be the best stack of pancakes I have ever eaten. Incredible!Now, the not so good. Wait times on Sunday morning are over 40 minutes and because of the crowds the service is (was) subpar. Got my order wrong, no coffee refills, etc. So, plan ahead, prepare to wait and do not expect service that matches the food.“

“Voted best dive bar in Albany. They are proud of that title and their Irish heritage! Light atmosphere. Everyone seems happy. No drama. We had some cold beers and a basket of cooked to perfection fried foods which included mozz sticks, onion rings, fries, and chicken tenders. Enough to share with many. Great jukebox too. A good time was had by all in this little neighborhood bar. Cheers!“

“My boyfriend treated me to Yono's for Valentine's Day, and Yono's was probably one of the best culinary experiences I've ever had! We had their special Valentine's menu, which offered a 6-course tasting menu, and we decided to go with the wine pairings, which was an excellent choice. It was my first time experiencing the beauty of wine pairings, and I was amazed at how elegantly the wine enhanced each course - their selections of wines were *chefs kiss* The complexity, flavor, and intricacy of each dish were phenomenal. The 6-course meal featured chilled creek oysters, butter poached scallops, root vegetable potage, foie gras, filet mignon, and dark chocolate gateau--each dish was a masterpiece and so beautifully presented. My personal favorite was the foie gras. While Yono's is definitely on the pricey side, it's perfect for your fancy shmancy occasions. I'm looking forward to returning to explore their regular menu! (nom nom)“

“We just had a private party for 40 here and they really exceeded expectations across the board. The food was fantastic and interesting for a buffet line, the service from the coordinator/server and bartender was really excellent, the beer selection was world class, and it was a cool interesting old building. For food we had chicken parm (really good), a great braised (?) pork dish, a large salad that was artfully presented, and the green beans and asparagus were perfectfully lightly charred, everyone was commenting on them. Only downsides were the unexpected step down into the bar, & chairs up on tables in the unused front bar. They are really well organized for private parties with extensive menus and prices posted online. Very impressed“

“This is a very cool spot. The atmosphere can't be beat- it's somewhat of a "hidden gem" being tucked away on the second floor of building overlooking Lark St. Food has been phenomenal each time I've gone. Everything is packed with flavor and has a unique touch. Chicken fried rice, the short rib, and the meatball appetizer are a few of my personal favorites but you really can't go wrong with anything on the menu. Would highly recommend this place to anyone coming to Albany and I can't wait to go back“

“Great service. Delicious food. Cod was cooked to perfection with a cream coconut curry sauce that I could've guzzled by the jar. Drinks were fabulous. My only complaint is to no fault of the restaurant rather society's lack of respect for fancier places like this. Have a little more respect when dining at a nice place than coming with a baseball cap, bright neon runners jacket and dirty band t shirts. Save that for the pubs.“
