“Nighthawks is THE BEST spot in Troy. My husband and I adore this place. They make the best omelette I’ve ever had and my husband is in love with their burgers. 100000/10 recommend. Staff are amazing and overall experience is magical!! Wow wow wow.”
“Love the Irish pub atmosphere. Would highly recommend Ryan's Wake for a private party. We had 50 people who were very comfortable in the space. Private room has its own bar which was great. All the staff we worked with were friendly and accommodating. We had appetizers, since party was 6-9pm. Great working with Jared, as he helped me with party planning suggestions. We brought balloons and some decorations. I was extremely happy with Ryan's Wake private room. Plenty of room to mingle! Great job Ryan's Wake!!”
“Bacchus has been the best most under-rated pizza in the area…in NY..for years. However something changed recently. I don’t know if it was a one-off but their flour or dough changed. Not in a good way. What happened?!?”
“Beautifully built, immaculate vibes, great drinks, incredible staff. Would 10/10 recommend for a fun night out. (Oh and they have a Photo Booth, pool table and extra seating upstairs)”

“My phone wouldn't let.me scan the bar code to complete the survey yesterday but a review is definitely necessary. First time at.the Troy location. I had honey bbq wings for an appetizer. Great stuff. And for an entree was ribs, brisket with sides of chili and salad. A came.with cornbread Everything was spectacular, one of the.best meals I have had. Bacon in the chili and the house dressing being bbq ranch were nice touches. My server Alison deserves a lot of credit too. Pleasant person, hard working, and made great suggestions when I asked. Alison and the food made this a great experience. Highly recommended and I will be back.”
“When I tell you, and listen carefully- these stuffed shells are literally the BEST stuffed shells I have ever had in the entirety of my 27 years of existence. I can’t believe I didn’t have to pay $25 for this because it’s worth $25+, and I would pay that, to experience the feeling I got upon taking the first bite. I was in pure awe. But aside from that, here (and Amante’s) are literally the best pizza restaurants in the capital region. Easily the best. I am never disappointed”
“I usually get the cauli powder pizza when I go to Organa. I am no vegan, but the pizza has a great taste and wonderful crunch. This day I wanted to try the Chic'n sandwich, so my husband and I brought 2 different sandwiches. He had cheddar on his sandwich, and I had some sort of spicy sweet sauce on my sandwich. I bit my sandwich, it was so good, I had to park to finish it. However, when I pulled over my sandwich fell on the floor in the backseat. You want to talk about someone being very upset. Mine you my husband is happily eating his. Later on, that day I went to Wendy's and bought a chicken sandwich. One bite and I knew Organa had ruined chicken sandwiches. Organa Chic'n Sandwich is better than Wendys, McDonalds, Burger King, KFC. I have not bought a sandwich from Popeyes since I've eaten at Organa”
“The associates are sweet and wonderful. I love everything about this place so far. The patrons seem to include some of the happiest, loveliest, most interesting people. I have actually had spontaneous conversations here...wow, conversations, and nice ones. That's special. I adore Jacob Alejandro!”
“Buffalo garlic parm wings were knocked out of the park tonight!!!”
“We recently celebrated our 49th wedding anniversary, which was a good choice. We found the staff to be polite and friendly from when we entered until we left two hours later. The environment was pleasant and easy with a touch of class. The half-chicken "Picata" ordered was "mm-hmm good" served with an exquisitely savory sauce, prepared by Chef Jake, who is a rising star and a compliment to Troy's fine dining experience. My wife and I also appreciated and thought it "cool" that the owner "Vic" took the time to talk with us. Enjoyable evening and location!!!”

“Friendly service. The food exceeded our expectations, it was delicious from appetizers to desserts. the hand crafted sauces are definitely a highlight. the food doesn't need sauces, but they definitely add a nice pop of flavor. we had : Yuca frita Arepitas con queso guda Arepa Pernil Cachapa Carne Mechada Quesillo de coco Crème Brulè cheescake Mango juice and a pineapple soda”

“An excellent selection of hard to find Eastern European beers and wines! Plus we tried some local brews. Bartender very good at helping us choose what we’d like. Relaxed atmosphere- we’ve eaten both inside and out in the garden, which is hidden from the street and a nice surprise to find after walking through the black gates. We had appetizers, burgers and salads- all were very good.”
“Their pho is incredible and their fresh rolls divine. My only complaint? On my most recent visit I got pho as takeout, and the broth was so hot, it actually deformed the takeout container it was in. I don't remember that in the past, so I think they must have switched brands. The broth leaked and I was concerned about leaching from melted plastic.
Great food, just need to go back to the old containers.”
“Love love LOVE B&B. Such a fun unique business idea, executed with passion, love, and the best Mac and cheese in the 518. You can tell the owners care deeply about each and every guest, and their passion shows in everything they do from their main gaming feature, their food, to the events they host. Warm, welcoming, inclusive atmosphere. Much love to all the staff , and Charlotte and Bryan! 🫶💛”
“Second visit update: So I returned for dinner with a friend of mine and we ordered the shrimp tacos appetizer, sea bass with risotto with cheese and potatoes entree, the cod fish Reuben sandwich entree and the crème brûlée. Sea bass had too much salt but everything else was okay. Our final bill was just under $100 so this place honestly seems too expensive to drop in often as I had originally hoped. I recently moved to the area and have been meaning to try this place for ever since I moved here. Tonight is one of the first warm nights of this spring and I was in the mood for a non-alcoholic beer and fries. So I walked around to peek at the top 5 Yelp choices for bar restaurants near me. One across the street I already went too in the past and it was all college students but this place Emry’s was more my vibe and most importantly it’s not brightly lit like the other nearby bar restaurants. Service was some of the best because they properly staff the bar here so no waiting forever to order and they all were very attentive. Lastly, I’m usually not a big fan of skinny French fries but these were freshly cut hand made (not frozen) and you can really taste the difference. Honestly the French fries here are some of the best I have had anywhere. This is now my go to local spot!”
“We love this restaurant very much. Me and my husband eat here all the time, and can never get enough of the eggrolls, fried rice, General Tso chicken and sesame seed chicken. We especially love the little Chinese girl that takes orders, she is so nice and deservers all the tips in the world. We dined in the for the first time just after they opened and have been going here ever since! Me and my husband spent our 35th anniversary eating their take out. picture of me and the hubby attached”
“Can the bartender was amazing definitely go and get yourself some amazing margaritas!!! Justin my server was absolutely the best very professional and very knowledgeable about the menu and specials !! And the food was tasty and delicious!!! So good ! Wanna have a great night go to the Troy recovery!!!”

“My parents started taking me here since I was only enough to remember. Now as an adult I use it to catch up with good friends and eat my favorite foods with such good prices! prices! I even introduced a few to this classic spot and they always ask when we're going back. Food that always hit the spot-5 Stars every time.”
“Ordered 2 cheese pizzas, each was $10 which was a good deal. The guy gave us 11 plates which was funny because it was just two of us each eating one pizza LOL. But it was good, took about 20 mins to be prepared but it was also the middle of a snow storm so they were probably low on staff, so it's possible they're usually quicker.”
“We love their pizza. Ordered from them last night for delivery, the pizza was running a little late but we didn’t notice. Much to our surprise, the delivery driver had 2 pizzas. There was a mistake on the pizza we ordered so they corrected it and gave us the mistake pie. Completely unnecessary but, we were able to feed some friends as well. Thank you. Pro tip: get their homemade bleu cheese.”
“We were there recently for my husband's birthday dinner. Saying the food is incredible is an understatement. This restaurant is on a whole other level of dining. Service was amazing, the atmosphere is so comfortable and welcoming, staff were attentive and it was easy to tell they're passionate about their food they put out. We will be returning for brunch ASAP, and Bistro 42 will become our new go-to date night spot.”
“Great menu....great food... courteous service....fair pricing...Great people! I've never been disappointed with my meal.”
“My friend and I ate there over the weekend and had yet another great experience. Attentive waitresses, generous portions served hot and fresh and didn’t break the bank. We love the casual feel and while small, you don’t feel too closed in. Also, while our food came out quickly, we weren’t rushed to leave and could spend time enjoying ourselves.”

“We went here for a sold out event. It was a great experience! With only two bartenders, they quickly and efficiently made drinks, never making the wait time longer than 5 minutes which was impressive given how packed it was! The two bartenders deserve all the kudos!! I will be back for more disco lemonades”
“My boyfriend and I come here every week since January for their chicken curry ramen it’s amazing! Definitely the best in the area. And their staff is just as amazing, super friendly! We get the same ramen everytime and it’s always consistently perfect. Thank you!!! 🙂”
“That pork belly bao is a travesty for being that small but being the same price as the chicken sando it’s ridiculous honestly,Lucky corner has one three times the size for cheaper 6 bucks is crazy for that one bite slider portion to price is trash here but the food is really good”
“Sat at the bar and was served by Vinnie. Vinnie was super nice and we had great conversations. Gabriella was also very smiley and friendly (she drinks a lot of water lol [inside joke]). I ordered the veal cordon bleu and my adult son had the lasagna. I’ve been to Italy and this meal was just as good, if not better, than some of the food I ate in Rome, Gaeta or Naples. The food was nice and hot, the bread was perfect and the everything was tasty. Great job we will definitely be back!”
“Moved back to my hometown and was so happy the Zotto’s reopened a new place. The best pizza, and wings around. Brunswick needed this place!!! All the waitresses were amazing and welcoming too!!”

“Liza's is one of my favorites for lunch in downtown Troy. The menu has healthy and tasty choices made with fresh ingredients. Service has always been friendly and fast, yet you will not be rushed as you sit and savor the dishes. The owner Liza who has created the menu can usually be found working at the restaurant, making sure you will return again. And I suggest you do return, so you can sample her creativity in the kitchen!”
“We love the RB, going there, the music, etc. Food is very good, great pizza. Recently did take out of 2 melts, delicious. Couple things though... 1) really really irks me when anyone i'm paying doesnt say thanks, thank you, etc. It was take out, I even gave a nice tip. Say thank you - goes a long way. 2) fries were Ok, not great, pasty and just eh, 3) salad greens were disgusting. Inedible, tasted like they were in dirty water, and 4) parking lot was thrashed. this was sat, so cleanup from friday should've been done. Empty bottles, cans, etc. Gross. We'll go back, but it will be a bit.”
“We used Carols to cater a baby shower— not only were the options great, they gave us a good price, all the food was fresh and delicious, and it was exactly the right amount of food for the number of guests. I would definitely use them again and recommend for anyone looking for good local catering options!”
“My friend and I stopped in today to have lunch and were not disappointed. This wasn’t our first visit there and I’m happy to say our food is always fresh, served quickly and will be piping hot when it gets to you. Unless it’s supposed to be cold! Waitstaff is attentive and it’s very clean. We lucked out without having to wait despite almost every seat being taken at lunchtime. I highly recommend!!”
“From the atmosphere to the cocktails the friendly crafty bartenders, this place rocks!”

“Pizza and wings are Great! Customer Service was excellent. We will definitely be ordering again.”
“My son goes to RPI and we discovered Moscatiello's Italian Restaurant two years ago. We love going there for dinner. The food is great, the menu is HUGE and the customer service has always been excellent! It is our go to restaurant in the Troy area.”

“An exceptional experience! The tacos took me right back to my "abuelita's" cooking. The fresh hand-made tortillas were excellent! The salsas could use more heat, but I understand most people can't handle spice. I asked and they gave me "morita salsa" which was delicious! My friend had a burrito bowl, and he was very pleased with the amount of food. He said the flavors were well balanced. He really enjoyed the carnitas. I don't know why some complain about the price. You get 4 hand-made tortilla tacos for $13.99. Most places only give you 3 and the tortillas are not fresh for maybe a dollar less!! The ambiance was great. Very clean and comfortable. Going back tomorrow, and the next and maybe every day..”
“As a queer woman in America, with a disability and a service dog... there are many places in this world where I do not feel comfortable, accepted, or even tolerated- much less welcomed. Any time I want to stop into a new place, I get a stomach ache outside, wondering whether people who don't know the ADA, or who don't understand what it's like to be challenged in every doorway for your right to exist, are going to mess up my day. (If you're a person with a service dog, then you know what I mean.) Today, though, I stopped by Cafe Euphoria and finally went in to eat. I can't tell you how happy I am to have found this place exactly as welcoming, warm, and fabulous as everyone had told me it would be. I had just had such a nerve racking morning. All I needed was to sit down worth warm comfort food, and not be bothered. A person in my situation can't take for granted that I can get such a thing in a public place. A lot of people wanna give me notes about the dog. I walked in with my dog, and no one treated me like a pariah or try to tell me I needed to show "papers" to exist in public. Instead, everyone was warm, friendly, and accepting! My dog and I are fairly new to each other. She is completely trained, both in her public access skills and in the tasks she performs to assist me. But in my experience, the whole first year together is really a time of learning to work together and work out any kinks in training. I discovered one today, when a burst of wind suddenly pushed open the door and began flapping papers hung near the door, at exactly the same moment that two guests suddenly stood up to greet each other right next to our table. My dog was surprised, and for a brief moment her training fell apart, with a sharp, brief, yelp of surprise on her part! This is a thing that can happen, even in a well trained dog - they're like people, and we all have our moments. But I've been in many situations where such a thing might have caused all the nasty, snarky little things being whispered around us suddenly get loud and blatant. Technically speaking, a business is not required to allow even a svc dog to misbehave in public, so they could have come over to get gate-keepy over that. (I was pretty embarrassed, as I've had a service dog for my entire adult life and I try to be more pro about it than that. I was actually prepared to just get up and leave, in case anyone was bothered.) But when I looked up, no one was giving me the hairy eyeball! No one was frowning at me, nobody was whispering accusations about my dog not being a "real" service dog. Instead, most people just went on with whatever they were doing, and those who met my eye just smiled warmly, full of acceptance and calm. The server even asked her name, with a bright and sincere smile. God, if you're not a person who is assisted by a service animal, you've NO IDEA both how rare and how special that kind of respectful acceptance can be. EVERYONE wants to patronizingly able- splain to me why they don't think they need to follow the ADA, why they don't think I've got the right to be there, or why they don't "believe," as though their beliefs should matter here, that my dog is really a service dog. This is such a relentless feature of my life that I am flooded with gratitude any time it doesn't happen that way. So much love to Cafe Euphoria! What a lovely, welcoming place. The food was DIVINE! What a welcome change from some of the other places I've been in this region. (Oh the stories I can, and prolly will at some point, tell about businesses not NEARLY this cool!) THANK YOU CAFE EUPHORIA!!!”

“The staff was extremely engaging and cordial, very nice folks!! One gentleman recommended the tuna very highly so I ordered it, and it was exceptional!! They use a bit of lemon pepper and it was delicious!! We also ordered a roast beef sub which was equally satisfying and tasty! We will definitely be returning in the future.”
“I was introduced to this deli when my mother-in-law was in a rehab facility and had a craving for a turkey sandwich. She loved their sandwiches and desserts that now when she is back living at home in Colonie we travel to the deli and get lunch for our family. Service, food and culture are always great! Highly recommend this deli.”
