Recently planned a get together with some former coworkers. Needed a place to meet up. When I…read moregoogled, "good cheap eats in Schenectady," the 20 North Broadway Tavern topped the short list. Done. It was an instant hit. I wanted the pastrami sandwich pictured on the website. Turns out, it was every bit as good as it looked. Probably the best I've had in the Capital Region. I think it came with coleslaw but they let me switch it for a small salad. The beer was cold. The server/ bartender was both friendly and efficient. The food came up relatively quickly. I was relieved and delighted. The tavern has just the right look. It's cute from the outside with nice signage. Inside, the lighting is dim-- especially at night--with the feel of a cool dive bar. If you want a more festive setting during the summer, there's outdoor seating complete with hanging string lights. That actually looked very inviting but my friends chose to stay indoors due to the threat of rain. As we prepared to leave, my friends were wondering why they hadn't been to the tavern before. One thing for sure is that we'll be back for more "good cheap eats" and great beer.

The steak roll was unedible because the steak was like leather. The fish and chips coating was somehow overcooked but undercooked within. The french fries were very oily and salty and as bad as we've ever had. It was one of the worst meals we had ever had. Since we did not eat it there, we could not return it and complain in person. So we are doing it now. Now we see that there is a new owner! Instead of keeping the same name, they should have tried learning how to keep the same quality. Save your money!

The customers and staff are welcoming. There is outdoor seating for warmer months. Lets talk about burgers. To.die.for. Burgers are huge, the bun is monogrammed. They can customize any way you wish. And tasty!!! Splurge on the fries with (beef) gravy and plentiful. We have also ordered wings as an appetizer - crispy, tasty with just enough sauce. Mild is VERY mild ( not complaining! ) Your feet will stick to the floor and the food will stick to your ribs. Local or Visitor - please patron and enjoy great food at reasonable price.

We had the cheese Quesadilla and Mexican fries. Both were excellent. I really want to try the build a burger but unfortunately today is our last day in town . I would highly recommend a visit because of the warmth and food. Don't let the outside scare you.

To explain, I ordered a double cheeseburger with cheese fries and it was delicious. To breakdown, the cheeseburger was excellent. The meat was juicy and tender with top tier flavor. Likewise, the sauce on the burger was sweet and tangy which elevated the flavor. Similarly, the potato bun was fresh and tasty, but the bottom of it was a bit soggy. It was simply a great burger. In similar fashion, the cheese fries were pretty good. To make clear, the fries were hot, crispy, and flavorful. Furthermore, the cheese was great and really made these fries special. In summary, 605 Smash is a great place to grab some burgers and fries.

I'm gluten-free, so I choose not to have the potato bun, which is a bummer because it looked amazing. My only gripe is the upcharge for a gluten-free bun. I completely understand paying a bit more for specialty products, but a $3 add-on felt a little steep. It actually kept me from ordering my own burger this time, so I just snagged a bite of my partner's (which was excellent). **I have had the gluten free option before and it was good, but udi's isn't my favorite (doesn't have very clean ingredients). Great tasting burger overall, but I just wish the gluten-free option felt a little more reasonable (or perhaps had a higher quality GF option for the higher price tag).

To say this was an edible cheeseburger is to be determined by the evening but my entire being questioned its consumption. I would not recommend this for a burger at all.

The price is right, the portion seems perfect to me, and they have a few options on how you can get your breakfast sandwich.

Guy had a pretty thick accent, which I took as a good sign, but I actually have no idea what his accent was. I asked him what was on his Italian sub. The usual: lettuce, tomato, onion, Italian dressing (I prefer just oil and vinegar, but okay.) and meat. Right, what meat? He mentioned salami and ham. "Hot Italian ham?" I ask. "Turkey ham," he says, proudly. "It's good." Turkey ham? Whatever, I'm hungry. I order the sub. "I gotchoo," he says. (To be repeated four more times before I left.) First, it's on squishy bread. Squishier than a Subway sub. Then he piles everything on and squishes it into the sandwich with a knife, like Subway. Because the ingredients aren't stacked in layers, like a normal sandwich, every bite has either a giant pile of meat or just veggies. I never get a bite with all the ingredients. I end up taking the second half apart, to put it together properly. But I digress. He hands me the sub, which is about 2" in diameter, and looks like a tube. And is squishy. And is $14. He also gives me a container of Balsamic Vinegar. ??? I decline. Before I leave, I show him a picture of capicola (which, when I was growing up, was always referred to as something that sounded mostly like "gobbagoal.") He looks at it and says, "What's that?" Ugh. The sandwich was probably the worst Italian sub I've ever eaten. It wasn't gross or disgusting; it just wasn't an Italian sub. In fact, there was no salami at all. There were a few slices of bologna (Yes, you read that right.), LOTS of turkey ham (yuck) and those small slices of pepperoni you get in the little bags at the supermarket when you want to serve your guests cheese and crackers. Not going back.

So, you might want to check them out on Facebook before attempting to seek them out off Exit 8 of the Northway. Are they worth seeking out or stopping by if you are in the neighborhood? First of all, their menu is limited, sandwiches (chicken, burger, hot dog, sausage, egg), tenders, fries, rings, mozzarella sticks, hash browns, poppers and drinks. Maybe it'll expand in the future. My first experience was trying the Sausage, Pepper & Onion sandwich ($9) and Onion Rings ($4). Keeping in mind that I've generally made at least one annual excursion to a competitor about 2,000 feet East on this road to satisfy my sausage sandwich and onion ring craving for the last 25 years, I was curious if anything here would come close to satisfying. While we waited for our order, we spoke with the wife of the husband-and-wife team owning the food truck. Very personable people. Our food was obviously made-to-order since we waited at least 10 minutes for the carryout container to be handed to us. Opening the container at home was the first surprise. Expecting to see a sausage patty on a hamburger bun, instead we saw a long link of sausage on a section of a sub-style roll - think county-fair sausage peppers and onions. This sausage was delicious. It had good texture, flavor, and spiciness. Peppers were a combination of chopped red, yellow, and green, and the onions did not overpower. The roll was fresh and soft. This may be my new preference. The onion rings were a surprise also. The coating was thick, very crunchy, and did not fall off the onion. The other standout was that there was no oily mess. Even as they later cooled, they did not have that lingering taste of oil. There is no question that I'll be back to try something else. Parking is available behind the food truck. Pull in the driveway alongside the food truck.
