50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants near Slingerlands

“Absolutely phenomenal experience! Everything we tried was fresh, flavorful, and delicious. The Dragon Ball was incredible — spicy crab inside perfectly ripe avocado that was literally like butter when you cut into it. The egg roll was perfectly crispy, and we were even surprised with homemade dumplings which were delicious. Service was beyond quick and the staff was wonderful. They checked in with us throughout our meal, and we never once had to wait or look around for someone when we needed anything. The restaurant itself is beautiful inside with a great atmosphere. Amazing food, wonderful staff, and excellent service from beginning to end. We will absolutely be back! ❤️“

“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!!“

“I've been to Gold Coin Restaurant several times, and the food is always delicious. The portions are generous, so you definitely get great value for your money. The staff and the owner are incredibly friendly and welcoming, making you feel like a valued customer every time you visit.

I highly recommend the sesame chicken dinner combo—it's always fresh, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. And don't leave without trying the crab Rangoon—they're absolutely amazing! Crispy on the outside, creamy on the inside, and some of the best I've had. If you're looking for great Chinese food with outstanding service, Gold Coin Restaurant is definitely worth a visit.“

“Had a delightful experience, from the amazing cigar rolls (better than any cheese sticks I have ever had) to the pistachio espresso and then the Turkish Manti was so flavourful! The icing on the cake was the blueberry creme brulee! Amazing and would highly recommend.“

“Rhiannon M was an amazing server. she ordered my husband's food and made sure we tried the gravy. everything was amazing and the gravy became an instant food memory for us both. she gave my toddler a complimentary snack for the wait too, if you can call it a wait we barely waited 15 min for all our food to come. I never say this, I almost always have both ends of the coin negative and positive in my reviews, but this one I have 0 negatives and all positives. great service, delicious all homemade food, the best gravy I've ever had or ever will have, & we left knowing we would be back every single pay day for at least the next month. thank you Rhiannon and metro 7, what a spectacular meal!“

“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 !“

“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.“

“We visited here at the end of a bicycle ride from Manhattan and had the best time!! The bartender was fabulous, we even learned about a new drink (to us) called Fernet-Branca. We so enjoyed meeting Serena, King, and Edward - so if you're out there hit us up! It was a magical evening 🥰“

“Great sandwiches and coffee. Tradisional Vietnamese. The bread and everything in the sandwich was as exspected. The coffee was so good. Ivwish i could get this coffee every morning. Happy New Year!“

“The food was delicious! It’s a casual sit-down eatery with a relaxed atmosphere. They don’t serve alcohol, which is worth knowing ahead of time.

We had the spicy dumplings and the spicy Mala beef noodle soup. The soup came with lightly cubed and fried tofu, tofu sheets, crunchy mushrooms, bean sprouts, lean and tender pieces of beef, and fresh ramen noodles in a very spicy, flavorful broth. The portion was generous—one bowl was big enough for two adults to share. The noodles tasted especially fresh and had just the right amount of chew.

The spicy dumplings were delicious as well. I even took some of the ramen noodles from the soup and dipped them into the spicy chili oil from the dumplings, which was very tasty.

For dessert, we tried the Portuguese custard tarts. They were OK, but I’d still recommend trying them. They’re not super sweet and lean a little more savory—think toasted, buttery croissant.

For two people, the bill came to about $48, including a can of Sprite, a can of seltzer, and tax. I tipped $20 on top of that. Service was pretty good overall.

I really enjoyed the meal and will definitely come back to try something new next time!“

“Wonderful food, atmosphere and staff!“

“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!“

“Cute little bar for a drink. The staffs are very knowledgeable on their products and make great recommendations. I particularly enjoyed the ALB vodka and now it is my go to whenever I see it. I was too late to arrive but it seems they also serve pizza during earlier hours. I can totally see myself come back get a pizza and sip on more drinks“

“Always excellent food, service and friendly too. Highly recommend you trying as it will become a fast favorite.“

“We stumbled on the place by chance and were not disappointed. The bartender, Jill was very friendly. Our meals were full of flavor. My husband got the chicken parm and I the barramundi. Finished by a tiramisu martini with a side of tiramisu. Sooooo good. We will definitely go back! Oh! The fresh bread and olive oil topped with tapenade was delish as well!“

“My family and I had the most amazing dining experience here at Normanside. The staff is extremely friendly, the food was exceptional, and the atmosphere is perfect. Great job team Normanside. Highly recommend anyone to come in and experience it for yourself!!!“

“We just stopped in for dinner for tye first time since the grand re-opening and I can confirm that the food is absolutely just as excellent as it was before the tragic explosion that closed the restaurant for what seems like forever! And the new building and seating are far superior to those in the prior incarnation. Sonya and her family have done it again! For us, Pad Thai Noodle is an essential fixture in the restaurant scene of the Capital District. Their Green Curry (my favorite) and the signature Pad Thai (my wife’s fave) are simply unmatched around here. Highly and unreservedly recommended.“

“lovely atmosphere with delicious gourmet American cuisine. it was a lovely new year dinner. staff very friendly“

“Best coffee in Albany, flavor and comfort guaranteed!“

“Great bakery, Supporting this business is helping a family owned business and getting great quality baked goods with no preservatives, clean and welcoming friendly service.“

“I’ve been looking forward to checking out the restaurant, Dove & Deer, since I first encountered their food when their chef was highlighted at the annual Summer Gala fundraiser here in Hudson last year. Their chef served an incredible amuse-bouche with gooseberries and the chef who was there sharing the amuse-bouches was wonderfully charming and the food was incredible! I was so impressed that I’ve been following their social media since then and have been looking forward to visiting the restaurant all the while! I was recently in the area and while I unfortunately wasn’t able to visit the restaurant in person- I was able to order through Door Dash and the meal was incredible! We ordered an assortment of things to share and were thrilled with everything! -Spicy Kale Caesar with shredded kale, croutons, and shaved parmesan! -Truffle Parm Fries with scallions and truffle aioli! -Mini Wagyu Beef Hotdogs made with wagyu beef, served in buttery toasted buns, and topped with mustard, ketchup, and relish! -Hot Lobster Dip made with lobster claw and knuckle meat, gruyere, gouda, fontina, spinach, scallion, and crispy wontons! It is often very difficult for a restaurant to adjust their menu to translate to takeout; and for them to do so where every single dish was not only delicious but also mostly with a great presentation, says a great deal about their attention to detail. This is a restaurant I look forward to dining at again many more times over the years!“

“Absolutely wonderful experience! I took 12 employees out to celebrate the holiday season and see a show in Albany. From the time we called for a reservation, right through dinner, the entire staff, and especially our server Casey were so welcoming and accommodating. The drinks, food, and service were all superb! Casey made us feel like we were the only thing that mattered in the restaurant, while the kitchen and bar handled some special requests with ease! In a world where the meaning of hospitality seems to have been forgotten by so many, this restaurant still knows what it means, and executes flawlessly. I highly recommend, and will definitely be back when in the Albany area. (I may even have to make a special trip back just for this restaurant!)“

“My VERY FAVORITE restaurant ❤️❤️❤️“

“Stopped at Inga's last week and just want to say how beautiful and pleasant Bianca was. The food was fantastic, but she made our experience one that will definitely bring us back!“

“My partner and I had a great time before heading over to the elks club for swing dance night.

Classic pub style seating and experience. Head up to the bar to order your food and drink, head back with your drinks and wait for the food. Theres tvs showing multiple different games but if youre not there for that the rest of the interior is the perfect astethic for a comfy night at the local bar.

The pretzel sticks were amazing and I need more.“

“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.“

“the best place I ever been. I highly recommend and will definitely come again for the great food and the relaxing music“

“We order lunch weekly at our office. Kris’ is absolutely incredible. The food, staff and delivery are all AMAZING!!! 5 stars!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Excellent portions for the price, absolutely delicious food. The staff were friendly and quick. I only regret that I didn't notice there were a couple of specials written on small signs behind the bar, and I only looked at the menu. One of them was literally my favorite dish, and I didn't notice in time to try it.“
