“Lovr Dobys! Our family has enjoyed their subs for many years. My husband and I have also liked their southern friend chicken wings. Great service and will order out to my car. We always do take-out so can't speak to the inside dining experience. I do not understand the negative reviews!“

“Lovely restaurant amazing burger options. My recent go to place.“

“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.“

“As a Diner Enthusiast, it's not often that I come by and appreciate the New Era of Diners. This is the kind of diner that will be a leader in the diner culture. It's aesthetic, cool, modern, and has some REALLY good food. I don't say that lightly. They have a coffee bar to grab a coffee while you wait for your table. Menu was quite unique. Check out the video online-AnotherDayAnotherDiner“

“A very heartfelt evening with family and friends to celebrate my retirement with a catered dinner and drinks at IL Faro. My deepest thanks to Jessica Lamoreaux, Chef Christian Lofaro, and our server, Valerie, for an outstanding culinary experience.“

“Great food. Very friendly people working there.“

“This place had great food and great service! Delicious butter chicken and chicken tikka! Thank you“

“Delightful little restaurant, comfy atmosphere and excellent food!“

“Went on international donut day, donuts were good but a bit of chewy texture. Only thing that was disappointing was the cinnamon roll, it was dry and hard. (Edit) So I came back after the owner asked that I retry the cinnamon roll, the 2nd time it was definitely better and fresher but maybe I just prefer a thicker roll but wasn't dry. The fudge fancy was decent but on the smaller side compared to other local bakeries. The Lobster tail wasn't bad just have never had a custard filled so it has a different taste and it's very crispy. The Maple Cream Bacon Cronut was amazing and made the trip worth it.“

“Delicious meal and top notch service by Tabatha and her crew.“

“Oh my goodness!!! I had the BEST Mexican pizza Friday night. The barbacoa was so tender and all the other ingredients were as fresh as if they had just come off the plant. I’m already planning to go back soon to have it again. Would recommend this place 100%!!!“

“Great food and service!!!“

“We absolutely LOVE booking Nine Pin for our Lifestyle Program of events for our residents here at Adams Station. Nine Pin's booking process is effortless and timely. Jessica is an absolute joy to work with, in addition to every staff member she has sent us. Our residents love when Nine Pin comes to events, whether it's to set up a bar and serve their delicious drinks, or for the tasting events that let them learn the history and science behind the brand. Thanks for always elevating our events, can't wait to have you back soon!🍻“

“Wanted to explore dinner place in Rensselaer, saw this Asian Bistro. They had huge menu, it was exciting but overwhelming at same time. So tried different food, the roll that we order didn’t look really appetizing and also the tum yum soup didn’t taste like Tom yum. However, the Thai basil chicken and salmon carpaccio were really good. I ordered scorpion bowl for drinks, it was large but I enjoyed it. Server was very polite and patience, we liked her. First drink order was taken by 1 server who seem to be in rush, but later another young lady with smiling attitude came and her attitude and service were 5 ⭐️. Again, will be coming back as I live near by and also recommend!“

“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.“

“I had an absolutely fantastic reasonably priced lunch today. Way more than I could eat., Burger was cooked perfect, toppings were fresh and delicious. The service was friendly, fast and efficient ! So glad we decided to look around before we ate.“

“Yesfolk is so good and a bonus of the Kombucha is that it is super helpful for people that want to live a sober lifestyle. Settling down with a kombucha is so much better than a beer or cocktail for me. I'm hooked on Yesfolk Kombucha!“

“Fantastic food, especially wings, and a great rotating beer selection … all served by friendly outgoing staff!!“

“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.“

“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“

“Everything is so fresh and the staff is wonderful!“

“Hunter the person who served us was friendly, easy to talk to patient with our order and just a great person to have as our server

Kid-friendliness: My son has some mental health issues and a little trouble deciding, but it didn’t take too long and Hunter was just wonderful“

“Laid back simple and nice great food“

“A great day today with a dear friend who has finally moved back to the Albany area.🥰 We have been friends for decades, and I even visited her when she lived in Denver, Colorado. We had a great lunch at Cafe Madison on Northern Boulevard in Albany. She had a yogurt parfait with granola, and fresh fruit, all topped off with enough whipped cream to blanket this group. 🤣 I had a salad of mixed baby greens, walnuts, dried cranberries,poached pears, goat cheese, and a delicious apple cider vinaigrette. Our waitress, Ashley, was a delight. The food was great, but she's the reason I'll be back. Great customer service skills. She loves her job, and it's reflected in her positive attitude.“

“Consistently great food and great people. Always a good time at the tavern!“

“It’s been 4 years since I moved away now and I still dream of this place. The owner makes you feel like you’re home and taken care of. I ate at this place every day for weeks during lockdowns and it brought me joy during a time of isolation. Their roast pork is incredible.“

“My bridal shower was here and they did such an amazing job! The food was DELICIOUS and the service was incredible“

“good atmosphere, good food, cold drinks“

“I recommend June’s to everybody it’s the best food and very relaxing place to come and count on the best food and if you enjoy a good drink to kick back and enjoy a drink and the owner appreciates all her customers and goes far way above and beyond to see her customers happy I recommend anybody try June’s out you won’t regret it and if you love historic buildings her restaurant is in a old restored fire house that she did all the work herself supper amazing place wish there was more places around the capital region like this. I hope junes is around many years.“
