This little gem was recommended to me by my Bed and Breakfast host. He ensured that this would be a…read moregreat place to pop in and have a good meal and he did not steer me wrong. As I arrived to this small and intimate restaurant I could see that it was completely packed. Wishing on a prayer there would be room, the hostess asked if I'd like to sit at the bar. I said yes right away and was swept there. The only seat open was at the end of the bar, but you are in the middle of the restaurant and the kitchen so it's a perfect spot to be able to see everything. After some time glancing at the menu I decided that the steak frittes and cab wine would be my order. As I waited I saw other items that immediately caught my eye and the burger was one of them. Mental note to come back and order that. When my meal arrived it was a generous portion and delicious. I enjoyed every minute of eating slowly, people watching and enjoying the ambiance of this place. It's reminiscent of a SF or NY hidden gem place but with a relaxed feel. Everything was great. From the service to the meal, perfection! Can't wait to to be back!

I had a coffee and tried a mimosa. To eat, I ordered a peach pancake which looked delicious! It had a maple syrup drizzle and a dollop of whipped cream which brought it together beautifully. Service was great, our waiter was happy to answer all the questions I threw his way. I will be back here before it gets too cold to try some new items!

The Roosevelt Room in Troy was a great experience from start to finish. I was honestly expecting a standalone building, but it is tucked into a strip mall near HVCC. That said, parking was easy and stress free, which is always a plus. This was our first visit as a party of four, and the service was superb. The attention to detail really stood out and was noticed immediately. Our waitress checked in at the right times, kept drinks filled, and made sure everything came out exactly as expected. Meals are made to order, so substitutions were no issue at all, and it was nice to see gluten free options available. When you walk in, you pass through a curtain and are immediately greeted by a coat attendant who takes your coats, which instantly gives the place an upscale feel. The ambiance is well done, with soft lighting and nice background music. It is on the smaller side and dimly lit, but that is clearly intentional. The menus actually light up, which was a unique and thoughtful touch that fits the atmosphere perfectly. We had reservations and were seated right away. It did not seem necessary on this particular evening, but I would definitely recommend them on a weekend given the size of the space. The food itself was excellent. Everything we ordered was very tasty, and the presentation across the board was impressive. Desserts are prepared by a pastry chef and were just as good as the rest of the meal. It is definitely on the pricey side, but that is to be expected for the level of service and atmosphere. This feels like a special occasion type of place, and in that context, it is worth every penny. We really enjoyed our night and would absolutely come back. There was also a sign mentioning live jazz on Fridays, which sounds like a great added touch. Overall, a very strong 5 stars.

It's attached to the golf course, sort of. I am not sure it's ADA approved as you need to climb steep steps to get in. Portions were generous and the young server was trying really hard to please. I am sure on a different day the vibe may be more lively. We were there on a Friday and it was dead.

She was super friendly, knew the menu really well, offered us tons of options for our selections and was very attentive the entire time. There was live music, a one man keyboardist who played easy listening tunes. We really enjoyed it :) this is a "don't judge a book by its cover" kind of place- the food was absolutely fantastic. We had 3, $25 strip steak special dinners and all were tender, flavorful and perfectly cooked. A Reuben sandwich had real homemade corned beef on it, kids meals were tasty and exactly as described. Vegetable cookery was fantastic, homemade dressings and plentiful portions. We will definitely be back, and we hope the chef and Tina will still be there! Glad to have found this diamond in the rough- go try it, good food for a great price! -The Belden Family

A group of us meet regularly for dinner in the Clifton Park area once a month. When our previous…read morehangout closed abruptly, several recommended we go to Emma Jayne's instead. I can now see why. There is clearly a focus on good, friendly, service. That was evident with every person with whom we interacted, whether it was a hostess, a waiter, a bartender, or even the guy who filled our water glasses. That was especially helpful to those of us who had not been here previously. The menu is diverse enough to have options for any preferences or degrees of hunger. Our orders ranged from soups to appetizers to full meals. Everything came out quickly, and all our meals came out at the same time. Everyone was satisfied with portions and taste. I believe the only negative comments the entire evening were around the cocktails. One person mentioned that their price point was too high. I would have liked to see more non-alcoholic options on the drink menu, such as crafted alcohol-free cocktails. When we first arrived, I said we were hoping this would become our regular monthly dinner location. They certainly did their part to help make that happen!

My friend, Barb, and I make a trek to Clifton Park about every 6 - 8 weeks to shop at Trader Joe's…read more Our gals' day out starts at lunch, where we often try a new restaurant. Another friend, Pam, had highly recommended Emma Jayne's Restaurant which is only a couple of traffic lights from Trader Joe's - a perfect location for our trip. The restaurant sits just north of Fred the Butcher (next door, literally) for those who frequent that establishment, on Route 9. There is off-street parking. When we arrived at 12:30 p.m. on a Tuesday, the front parking spaces were full. (Note: there may be parking around back; I didn't check) We thought we might have to wait for a table. Wrong! The restaurant is surprisingly spacious with two large rooms furnished with tables that were thoughtful spaced apart. A photo of an adorable young girl, whom we assumed was the dining establishment's namesake, was on the wall. Let me be sure to mention that the ladies room, which smelled faintly of bleach, was spotless. I mean REALLY clean! About the food ... my friend and I shared an appetizer of Fried Calamari. It was an ample portion (took some home) accompanied by sweet chili sauce - a nice change from typical marinara served at other places. However, the calamari was small and overcooked. As a result, what was presented was a plate of small, overly crisp rings of 90% batter. No squid! For our entrees, Barb chose the Chicken Salad Sandwich. She requested that it be served on a pretzel bun (touted as homemade) for which we were hit with an up-charge of $3.50. The chicken salad had grapes and walnuts in it and Barb liked it very much. The up-charged pretzel roll did not appear to be homemade. Very disappointing. Had she known it would be uninspiring, she would have accepted the brioche roll. Macaroni salad - not very exciting - accompanied the sandwich along with a pickle. I love seafood and was torn between ordering the Fish and Chips (halibut) and Lobster Pot Pie (an appetizer). Our server, Drew, gets a gold star for suggesting the second one when I told him I wasn't a big eater. Apparently, the halibut, while highly recommended, is a sizable portion. The pot pie was superb! The rich, creamy sauce was divine. I couldn't eat it all and will enjoy the rest of it for lunch today. Emma Jayne's menu has something for everyone. Our server, Drew, was informative and attentive. While we may make other food choices (skip the calamari and pretzel bun but keep the pot pie), we will definitely return.

This is a "cafeteria style" brunch buffet in which you serve yourself and also are asked to bus and scrape your dishes. I have no issues with this format. This brunch is a well laid out with numerous options. There was eggs, bagels, bread, fruit and many Korean items and some sweets. Ice water, coffee and Tea and apple juice all included with other optional drinks available at a small additional charge. Most were $1 or 2. The Food and atmosphere were both excellent. The Dining room, buffet area, and the coffee and drink sections were very clean and tidy throughout our visit. I didn't take enough pictures but there was 3 lines of tables of different salads, sides, noodles, hard boiled eggs, hot items, fried items, desserts, etc. We sat on the deck, overlooking the grounds and the breeze was nice and weather was perfect. After we took our time eating, we walked the grounds. Great meal and activity. I'll definitely return.
