Before I booked the dinner I reached out to Michael the owner to see if they would accommodate a kosher guest, knowing that the restaurant wasn’t kosher. Mike said the restaurant could plate a kosher meal that we brought in. The process was seamless and we are thankful for the accommodation!“

The design of the bar is superb and feels high end and classic with diverse textures and seating that allow you to sink in and sip,chat and munch. This will be our new "go to" place as it fulfills all I've ever wanted to be in Troy.“

“Great social atmosphere.Fun games to play.They really need more than 1 bartender downstairs. Not a huge selection at that bar and the cocktails were small & expensive. Get a beer instead.In the winter, when we went in March, the downstairs was freezing. Wear your wool socks and sweater & you'll be good.All-in-all it was a good experience. Shuffleboard was a blast. Giant games too.City parking. Not wheelchair accessible. Narrow, dark stairs to get downstairs, opens up to a big game area.“

My go to’s are the Lobster Mussels and for brunch the Croque Madame. Both are delish. The Saturday morning bartender Kate always makes fantastic drinks. Her Aperol Spritz’s are perfection.“

“Love the food and service at 110 Latham. I've gotten the calamari several times and it never disappoints. After many visits getting my normal go to menu items like shrimp scampi that I love I decided at last weeks visit to ask the waitress for recommendations. At her recommendation I get the Apricot Shrimp Risotto for the first time. WOW, so happy I did. it was amazing and I have a new favorite. Thanks 110 and staff. See you again soon.“

“I do not recommend this place at all. Over priced frozen dinners from the corner store. Wait time to get dinner 2 hours and 36 mins. If you want a drink you have to wait 45 mins to get a simple soda. Our waiter AJ kicked butt. He was super busy. We even offered to help clean table off. The manger was a grumpy and hard to work with. We ordered wings for appetizers and it took 1 hour and 35 mins. Definitely never coming back.“
