“A jewel of a discovery. When we found other establishments on New Scotland Ave closing their dining rooms by 9pm on a Saturday night, SakeCafe was graciously open, serving delicious food (we tried a little of everything from sushi to Udon) and with the best tableside service I've experienced in literally years. Oh, and the hot sake is splendid and at $6/bottle an unbeatable value. SO happy to know they are just around the corner. Sorry bao buns place but you lose, SakeCafe wins.“

“We love coming to Bliss and try something different every time. Never disappointed. Tried the Camo, Mellow and Unicorn 🦄 along with Caprise Avo Toast. 😋“

“girlfriend said it was good so I tried it. was a solid 9/10 on any scale imaginable I'm picky af. I like a flop free cheesy light sauce crispy pie and they made it perfect. it's salty and not too much water content in the sauce FOR ONCE. was FASTER than their time estimate and its well worth $1 for what tastes like amazing breadsticks as your crust. best $15 8 cut in the 518 so far“

“My kids are obsessed with the macaroons and are a staple at every birthday!“

“Easily one of my favorite bars in Albany.

Trivia every Wednesday and karaoke on Friday are always a blast. All of the bartenders are friendly, helpful, and know their stuff. Great selection of all types of beer, with some canned cocktails, shots, and THC seltzers.

Very friendly atmosphere for hanging with friends, queer and POC friendly business. Music on karaoke nights gets pretty loud though.

Beer can run a bit pricey but they have delicious cheap options too.

They're dog friendly too so you can pet some cute dogs while you're drinking. And the patio is a big plus. Tables and chairs on the sidewalk are great for summer nights.“

“We love this place, it's our favorite place for brunch! Looking forward to bringing out of town family with us tomorrow. We have brought them here before, but they asked us to go back.“

“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.“

“HANDS DOWN BEST BAGELS IN THE CAPITAL DISTRICT!!!!!“

“The best cocktails in Albany! (Get the Capital City Renewal!) I had the best birthday dinner there tonight. Thanks to the team for making it special. The appetizers were incredible!“

“*Green Book Safe*

I was immediately greeted and my order was taken.

Very courteous & professional. I was slightly early before the kitchen was open, yet was still proffered a menu.

One local behind the bar even provided insight to my newcomer experience.

Based on today's interaction, I would return and recommend.“

“comfy place to grab a teas and super friendly when I go in. may be my new tea place.“

“My husband and I went because we loved the logo . I’m a huge dog lover. When we walked in the vibe was fun and inviting. The flight we had was great. I like that we can bring our kids and dogs if we wanted to . We agreed that we will definitely be back and will bring some friends.“

“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!“

“This place is amazing. I didn't know what to expect going in to the all you can eat restaurant. I was happily surprised that it's not buffet style. Servers and bussers. The restaurant is nicely styled and comfortable. The greeters and wait staff couldn't have been kinder or more professional. $28.99 is worth every penny just for that. The longest we had to wait between orders was no more than 5 minutes. The food was fresh, perfectly presented and absolutely delicious! I really can't find the superlatives to describe it. Everything combined made this experience one of the best outings I've ever had. I HIGHLY recommend this place.“

“Thank you for making the best wedding cake for my daughter's wedding. It was absolutely the best cake we ALL ever had. So many people complimented on the cake and wanted to know where we got the cake from. It really was the best cake we ever had!!“

“Fantastic experience earlier this month having Sunday Brunch with my son and our American cousins at Lost & Found. This place is great! The real America, in Albany, away from the well-beaten tourist tracks. Friendly service, great menu, tasty food, and the proprietor is a gent - even let us get group photos on the stage as he hadn’t a band at the time! It was a wet Sunday but we just had a great family get together inside. Not that far from the city centre and worth finding. Very good value as well.“

“The naga chicken sandwich was AMAZING and my partner really enjoyed her crispy chicken sandwich. Love having a halal spot nearby. The prices are super reasonable- think McDonald’s prices for HIGH quality food. Staff is so friendly and quick, and it’s a cute little spot. We live nearby and will be back!

Dietary restrictions: Really great pork-free and vegetarian options!“

“Best brisket ever!!! And I've had brisket in all the southern states...“

“Emily is an amazing breath of fresh air whenever we come in. She handles every customer with a personal and friendly smile. The drinks never let me down, especially the Americano.

It would be great oif they extend thr hours a few days a week beyond 5pm but otherwise A+

Thanks for being in the neighborhood“

“A rustic atmosphere. Sitting away from the main area/ door during the winter months is a must. The whole place was cold. Good service. Layout isn't fantastic for those trying to make purchase. The long line to order during lunch time impedes the ability to walk from one side to the other.“

“Indian Ladder Farms is the perfect family day trip destination! They truly have it all – from the best ciders (their sparkling cider is a must-try!) and good beer to amazing food that keeps you coming back. There’s something for everyone here. The kids love seeing the animals, and there’s plenty of seating, including a cozy fire pit to relax by. Apple picking is a blast, and you can even pick fresh raspberries when they’re in season.

The country store is a treasure trove, offering homemade cider donuts that are absolutely delicious and some of the freshest apple cider you’ll ever taste. Indian Ladder Farms is a fun-filled spot with a relaxed vibe – perfect for making family memories and enjoying the best of fall!“

“Great spot and awesome staff!!“

“Fabulous food and friendly people! Lots to look at while you eat or wait. Thanks everyone! ❤️🥰“

“Went snow shoeing yesterday at Western Turnpike Golf Course. Stopped by a little gem we have right in our backyard afterwards for a beer and sandwich. Had no idea they are open during the winter. The Hedge Bistro open Tuesday-Saturday 11-5 until about April. Happy to see several “made in house” items on their menu…pizza dough, smoked brisket and pork, NEVER frozen burgers (which makes a difference!) Caesar dressing, marinara sauce and chocolate chip cookies!“

“i was just there And you get 5 stars will be back before I head home keep up the good work fish was melting in my mouth and great thanks“

“Great selection of Beer and Whiskey. Very nice atmosphere and the outdoor patio is the coolest place on earth!!!“
