Bellini's Counter has opened a location in Clifton Park in the same building as Jacob & Anthony's (same ownership), former spot of the 99 Restaurant.
This fast casual eatery serves up made to order salad & pasta bowls, wraps, classics items and self serve Pepsi fountain drinks. For the bowls and wraps, choose your base, proteins, toppings, sauces and dressings. The place is order at the counter, your food is prepared to order down the line. There is table seating inside.
I've been to the Latham location a few times for their large pasta bowls and really enjoyed the big portions in the bowls. After hearing about Bellini's opening a Clifton Park branch on social media, I headed over for lunch takeout after a business appointment.
I decided to download their app which had a BOGO Free offer for large bowls or wraps. I ordered on the app, 2 build your own pasta bowls ($13.95 each before fees, tax, & tip & discount), one with chicken cutlets, cavatappi, vodka sauce, sun-dried tomatoes, cherry tomatoes, carrots, chickpeas, red onions, red peppers, peppadews, cucumbers, artichokes, green olives, spring mix, roasted broccoli, roasted veggies, onions & peppers, shredded mozzarella, shaved parmesan, gorgonzola and topped with cucumber yogurt, and a another large bowl with meatballs, linguine, alfredo sauce, sun-dried tomatoes, cherry tomatoes, carrots, chickpeas, red onions, red peppers, peppadews, cucumbers, artichokes, green olives, spring mix, roasted broccoli, roasted veggies, onions & peppers, shredded mozzarella, shaved parmesan, gorgonzola and topped with creamy garlic parmesan dressing. My order of 2 big salad pasta bowls was bagged and ready for pickup in 15 minutes. Since I'm adventurous, I chose lots of ingredients for each bowl, filling up each bowl to the brim, plastic bowl cover smushed the excess ingredients. There was enough food for four meals.
I will have to stop by Bellini's Counter more often when I'm very hungry. Thanks Two Buttons Deep for the Clifton Park lunch recommendation! read more
