Very well managed establishment! On a few occasions (including once this week) had to call a day ahead to order 10 pizzas for a work party. Spoke to the manager and he was very friendly and accommodating! Had everything ready on time, including some complimentary items on the house! The variety of pizzas were all amazing, as well as the garlic knots! I would definitely recommend them for any large party but just call ahead and give them enough time. You won't be disappointed! read more

I found this place right by my hotel. I am happy I did! I'll start by admitting I am no expert on NY pizza. But I do love good pizza! And I was happy here! The selection is fire! A huge number of premade pies you can order by the slice. I got a meat lovers and a chicken cappresse . I want to try the chicken parm next time! Both were very tasty. Service was fast and super nice large seating area. Definitely a laid back place. read more

I had a pick up order and they wanted a 20% tip that's a joke done going there ,, why is that even a option ,,, you need to take that off ur register read more

We stopped in and we were floored by how many different pizzas were available by the slice. We were traveling, so a whole pizza didn't make sense for us. The salad we ordered was great. The greens were quite fresh and the meat and cheese toppings were plentiful. read more

I ordered my lunch at 11:32am, was notified it would be ready by12:02pm. As I was on my way to pick it up I was then notified it was ready to be picked up. When I got there at 12:04pm it still wasn't ready. I waited an extra 16 minutes for it to be done. Left there around 12:20pm. I was unable to eat any of it during my half hour lunch. read more

Golden Grain - Out door entrance - Pizza Near Me - Rensselaer, New York

We were told about this establishment by my brother in law and decided to try it out . He said that the pizza was amazing and he loved it . We tried and it was as good as he said. It's a bit to get used too as it's a counter business and they take your order then basically you're on your own... getting your own plates .... Forks... shake cheese / peppers etc . Once you get used to that , the place is amazing ... ambience is nice . read more

Golden Grain - Amazing pizza at Golden grain pizza !! - Pizza Near Me - Rensselaer, New York

This place is freaking amazing!! Was staying at the hotel across the street so gave it a shot on day 1. Good thing I did bc I then ate there every day. Even when I was in downtown and had a chance to eat there before coming back to the hotel, I waited and just ate at Golden Grain. They have like 20 pizzas ready to buy by the slice. My favorite was the chicken Parmesan slice. They also had so many more. And they were all high quality w loaded toppings. They have other stuff like subs, hamburgers, wings, etc. it all looked good but the slices were so good I just grabbed 2 each time. The people are friendly, nice, and helpful. Also they have a fireplace. Would highly recommend this place. No reason to go anywhere else. Looking forward to eating this to go slice I'm taking to the airport! read more

average score for an average pie Cheese could use a little more zing, but I'd come back, likely. read more

We googled best pizza near Albany to grab as we drove though, so this was take out. The sauce is delicious. The pizza was very floppy. I prefer more crispy, even a bit overdone. To be fair, we did add several toppings, perhaps weighing it down. Point is, can't give a bad review based on personal preference. You might love it. If I go again, I would walk in and grab slices. The pizzas in the glass counter looked so much better! read more

Great large wings with a spicy mango habanero sauce, and Stromboli with sausage, peppers and a cheese pull to die for! Delicious crust, with quality ingredients inside. read more

We ordered a delivery from our hotel while visiting the area and lucked out with THE BEST vegan pizza we've ever had. Thankfully we will be back in the region periodically and you can bet we'll order it again. I was heading down to the desk to be early for its arrival and when I walked out of my 4th floor room, saw the nice delivery person heading my way. Quick and delicious. Kudos and thank you!! read more

Golden Grain definitely got an upgrade in quality (and ambiance, too) when it moved locations from the plaza across from Walmart to the new location further up Troy Road next to Exit 9. The pizza and food quality has been noticeably much better, and there's plenty of tables and eating space. The service is good. The staff I've always dealt with is incredibly friendly. Food is above-average pizza shop fare. Plenty of standard and specialty pizzas available to order, along with sandwiches and wraps, wings and so on. The pizzas are good, nothing mind-blowing. Good stuff if you're in a pinch or you want a quick couple slices. The wings are really good. This place also makes a mean buffalo chicken wrap - I just had one before writing this, and it was super fresh, chicken hot, crispy and cooked perfectly, just all-around a great wrap. I've ordered online for takeout and in-person here, and generally, the food is ready within the promised timeframe (with one exception, I had to wait an extra 15-20 minutes last time for my order of wings with the pizza - I think they forgot to make them). That leads me to my next point - make sure to double, even triple check your order when you get it to make sure it's correct. Fair warning if you're ordering delivery, you might not get the chance to do this. I went in to place an order, and while I waited, I watched maybe five other people come and pick up orders. 2 out of those 5 had orders that were incorrect or missing something. One of those people had actually only ordered two slices of pizza, and placed that order right at the counter, but they still grabbed the wrong slice to heat up. That being said though, the staff did a great job at correcting those errors. The guy who got the wrong slice of pizza got to keep the extra slice and they heated up the correct one he wanted. Another party who had to wait because they forgot to make part of the order, they were given a couple of free slices of cake for dessert for the wait. They definitely made the errors right, and that's why I'm going with 4 vs. 3 stars. read more

Neopolitan (round) pizza is very good but the Scillian (square) pizza is EXCELLENT! As a native of Long Island it is tough to find a pizza place up here in the capital region that even makes a traditional Scillian thick and crispy crust pizza but GOLDEN GRAIN does it well! Wings are good but not on par with Frank's out in Buffalo at Anchor. Menu is stocked with several cuisines at reasonable prices. East Greenbush location is beautiful and clean inside. Service is good too with multiple ordering and payment options. Keep up the great work! read more

Fomerly named F & A Pizza, Golden Grain Pizza offers a good variety of traditional and gourmet thin crust pizzas (slices & pies), plus calzones, strombolis, salads, subs, pasta dinners, burgers, appetizers, and more. See the menu and pricing at http://www.goldengrainpizza.com/menu/ which is the same offerings as the Colonie location. After I finished shopping at Walmart across the road, I stopped in at Golden Grain Pizza for a quick bite to eat recently. They had 11 pizzas all set to choose from behind the glass counter. I picked out a slice White Pizza ($2.75), which was promptly heated up in the oven. The hot pizza slice had a firm soft thin crust (not thick edges) topped with fresh broccoli, ricotta cheese, garlic & oil. The pizza slice I had was very good and will be sure to return again to try out the other pizzas. I saw they had a Baked Ziti Penne Pizza offered here! read more

My wife and I called in a pickup order and were told 15 to 20 min. After about 25 min we roll in and they have no idea where our pizza is. The kid up front went in the back to ask the chefs and nobody knew. We were clearly forgotten about. We were told 8 min and they would have a new pizza ready for us. Great. About 15 min later still no pizza and when asked about it we got nothing but attitude from the manager girl. You would think after now 45 min of waiting and still nothing they would offer a can of soda or maybe some mozzarella sticks anything to keep the customer happy. Instead the awful attitude continued and we took a refund. Terrible terrible customer service I surely don't recommend! read more

Love the service, cold cheese pizza without driving to Oneonta , 100% recommend them. Pizza deals are great and a huge variety of other slices ready to go. read more

We ordered dinner from them on a stop-over from Rochester. Our order was a beef shawarma wrap, a meatball sub, and an order of vine leaves stuffed with rice. When we got back to our hotel we discovered that instead of vine leaves stuffed with rice we got an order of stuffed (pasta) shells. They hadn't checked that the order was correct before stapling the bag shut. Not good. read more

Traveling through the area and stopped late for a hotel. We were hungry so asked the hotel for recommendation. The gentleman waiting on me found out we were traveling. It was close to closing and the service he gave us was so friendly! He offered us free samples of garlic knots and specialty pizzas! They were amazing!!! The ambiance was incredibly clean, cozy, and easy to find! Right down the road from our hotel! read more

Great place to grab a slice of NY style pizza - they had other foods as well it all looked fresh and healthy !

I ordered a Philly chicken sub that arrived with barely any meat and no peppers or onions. I gave the sub back to the server, left, and reached out to the owner. The owner responded "I don't really care". I paid $14 for a sub I never ate, that was basically bread, a little chicken, and cheese, and the owner doesn't care. That's all anyone needs to know to make a decision to go elsewhere. read more

we've been ordering for a little bit and it's always quick and good but tonight we got our order plus another order and we called and told them that someone else didn't get their order theh said they are coming back and getting it after we opened it all and picked around cause we were confused which is gross so u guys are flops read more

Fresh Greek salad wrap and excellent service! They went out of their way to call me to make sure my order was right. The wrap was great!

Good pizza, nice atmosphere! Every Rensselaer people should try! They made crust house made and daily fresh.

Ate here on a Thursday night and the place was empty except for the bustling take out business they were doing. The garlic knots were great but the pizza was sooooo good you'll wish you didn't fill up on them. I've had pizza at Pat's Pizza in Orono, ME (shout out to my college town), Regina Pizzeria in the north end of Boston, various locations on the NJ shore, Buddy's Pizza in the greater Detroit area, Uno and Giordano's in Chicago. All are unique and different but the pizza at Golden Grain belongs in the same paragraph. Now, who still eats at the Pizza Hut? That's a one star, all locations. read more

I'm giving this 4 stars right now just off window slices. It's good pizza being heated up and he doesn't fail. I'm going to get a whole pie next time because the window slices were so good. If you are just around this area looking for something to eat I def would hit this place. Affordable Nice staff Pizza crust had a nice crunch coming from oven. read more

Let's start with service. The young lady wasn't even listening to my request of toppings etc. after paying $10 for a 1/2 sub. So of course when I received it I opened the container and two of my requests were missing. When I approached the counter to get it corrected, I was greeted with "what's up". Then upon eating, the turkey was old and had that funny stale taste. Will not be back based on this and other reviews of the pizza. Too bad. read more

Pizza was just alright. Crust just taste like frozen crust. Wasn't really an authentic pizza just was kind of mediocre. If you're just wanting a quick pizza sure but I wouldn't go back. The service was quick and friendly though. read more

This place has the friendliest service--quick delivery--good prices-- and most importantly, very good pizza. I got the medium margherita and my wife got the Hawaiian. It came with free garlic knots, arrived earlier than expected, and was still crispy! I'm spoiled as I'm used to Long Island thin crust pizza, but this place is by far the best pizza since coming to Albany. read more

Had a friend recommend this place a while back and I've been a repeat customer ever since. Delivery time is always reasonable, and the food is always amazing. I usually go for just pizza and wings, but anytime I've branched out and tried something new I've never been disappointed. 5/5 definitely recommend!! read more
