    Lamb burger
    Noah L.

    Good food. Not amazing but I liked the lamb burger and the pork bun. We also got the Bolognese which had some interesting, very thick homemade pasta. Pretty tasty and they offer some delicious homemade chocolate at the end for free.

    Tomato pie and tater tot's. Sooooo good!

    crackers and mediterranean bean dip
    Muriel D.

    I give Innovo a 7/10 (aka a 3.5/5). The ambiance and atmosphere of the restaurant was bright and welcoming. The host that greeted me was friendly and I got a good kick out of their sign to remind patrons to be kind. Food: The restaurant gives out crackers and a mediterranean bean dip to snack on as you look over the menu. This was a unique and yummy treat. My friend and I got steamed pork buns to share as an app and I ended up with the marry me chicken as my entree. The pork buns were great. I thought there was a decent amount of meat and it had a nice crisp to it that most buns I've had in the past lacked. The marry me chicken sauce was a bit bland in my opinion. It was definitely still good, just seemed to be lacking something. The mashed potatos and brussel sprouts that it came with were solid. We opted out of dessert for the night but still got a sweet treat in with the complimentary dark chocolate bark that is offered. The chocolate was delicious, smooth, and a great way to end the meal. I would love to go back and try some of their other menu options! Other: there's plenty of parking outside in the plaza lot. Our server was attentative and kind. Though she did only come by once my friend arrived (we were a party of 2 and I was there waiting a few minutes for her).

    50/50 Burger
    Hunter C.

    After hearing many good things about Innovo Kitchen, I decided to give it a whirl. With regard to the above mentioned, I started things off with the Parmesan tater tots. With that said, the tots were really tasty. To construe, the tots were definitely homemade and didn't taste like other tater tots. The outside was crispy while the inside was fluffy with a heavy potato flavor. Also, the Parmesan cheese helped bring it all together. These were simply great tater tots. After that, I ordered the 50/50 burger and it was delicious. Considering that, the burger was topped with bacon, cheese, pickles, and peanut butter. I was skeptical that these ingredients would work, but they certainly did. To explain, the burger was juicy and had excellent flavor. In addition, the bacon, cheese, and pickles all brought extra flavor to the burger. Finally, the peanut butter brought everything together to create a perfect harmony. Comprehensively, Innovo Kitchen is a great restaurant with yummy burgers and tater tots.

    Onion rings

    Had a lovely lunch sitting out on the patio at this large modern restaurant with an open floor plan. I ordered a Caesar salad with shrimp which at $27 I thought was a little pricey even though the food tasted good and there were a lot of shrimp! My friend had drinks, the chicken wings, and onion rings, and she enjoyed her meal and said the lemon drops were tasty! The highlight was our waitress who was attentive without being intrusive and professional when offering us the check at the end of her shift.

    Biscuit breakfast sandwich
    Jordan C.

    An overall good brunch experience. Bottomless brunch was great and our waitress was very attentive in making sure our glasses were full. The menu wasn't terribly extensive but everything was solid. The biscuit "appetizer" was perfect for a group of four to hold us over for the main meal. Was surprised that the biscuit sandwich was actually on a different style of biscuit. One thing we all agreed on was the potato casserole side being amazing. After the meal our waitress was walking around with free dark chocolate for everyone which was a great added touch. Will be back for sure!

    Libations... white zinfandel!

    Every time I come to this place, I enjoy the different food that they have lots of different menus routinely changed . I usually make a reservation as it's so crowded. You can't get a seat. They also have outside seating with a fireplace and heated lanterns. They usually have a happy hour of drinks and food most weekdays so get there early because the bar seats are full. The only issue I have is sometimes the sound is quite loud as they have metal ceilings that makes it a little bit loud, but it doesn't matter because the food is so good. It's a very trendy place both young and old enjoying delicious food.

    We had a delicious New Year's Eve family dinner. The staff was excellent and friendly, the food was elevated and excellent!

    Has it really been eight years since my last visit to Innovo Kitchen? Well, not much has changed. Once again, arriving a little after 6 pm on a weeknight it was quite busy (read still noisy). I was surprised that the bar area was only about half full since their Monday Burger special was only valid in the bar. It being summer on this visit instead of winter, the overhead door to the patio was wide open. Without a reservation, we were once again seated in the back near the open kitchen. But this time we had a good view of the kitchen. There are no paper menus. You have the choice of viewing the menu on their webpage with whatever internet connecting device you carry, or scanning the QR code displayed on the table with your cell phone. Staff are happy to offer you assistance should you need it. The beer choices are primarily in bottles and cans with a handful of drafts. Variations of IPA dominate. My wife ordered a bottle of Saratoga sparkling ($7.50) while I chose a can of Wolf Hollow Pilsner ($8). Our server brought a complimentary white bean dip with everything flatbread while we reviewed the menu. Déjà vu from six years ago? My wife was interested in trying the Chilled Melon Avocado Soup ($8) and the I-Street Tacos ($10). The soup had plenty of flavor and even a swirl of hot crispy oil. The daily changing taco filling today of fried cod, slaw, guacamole, cotija, and pico salsa was more enjoyable than the flour tortillas. Corn tortillas would have been our preference. Not having reviewed my previous review before going to dinner, I once again ordered the Lamb Burger ($24). Déjà vu once again except for the nine dollar price increase. Just like the previous time, I left the level of cooking up to the Chef and once again it came out a beautiful medium-rare (compare the photos). The sesame seed roll was super fresh and soft. The lamb was so mild in flavor that even someone who does not enjoy lamb would find this to be a tasty burger with its feta cheese, pickled onions, arugula, and tzatziki aioli. The fries needed to be more crispy on the outside. The final Déjà vu was our server offering another complimentary treat, cold pieces of chocolate with slivers of almond and cranberry. Service was excellent. I really should return more frequently and try something different.

We also are fans of the Detroit style pizza we were first introduced to at Whitman Brewing in Saratoga. Korner Bar & Grill is closer to our home, and it would be more convenient if their pizza was equally as good. Arriving on a Saturday around 6 PM it was apparent that they are already popular after being open for only about one week. None of the tables were available and only 4 seats at the very long bar were vacant. We chose two bar seats that were the furthest from the dining room where a fellow was entertaining with his guitar and singing. These seats were close to the entrance with an occasional cold draft as people arrived and left. We chose these seats because the noise level was unbearable everywhere else. I actually turned my hearing aids off to tolerate the noise level. Our server at the bar was friendly and welcoming. She quickly served us water and provided us with a "cheat sheet" of the available beverages. There is no written food menu. Numerous QR code cards are posted asking you to use your phone to read the food menu. A soda ($3.50) for my wife and a 20 oz. draft Modelo ($7.50) for me were quickly served. Most impressive was how quickly the kitchen served our apps. 5 minutes! Yes, FIVE MINUTES! Crinkle Cut Fries ($6) and Uber Cheese Stixs ($13). I've never had fries from Nathans so I can't attest whether these compare fairly as implied by the menu. But I grew up on crinkle cut fries that my Mom made, and hers were better. My wife thought that many of these fries seemed like they were dehydrated. The menu says that the Uber Cheese Stixs are house made with 5 types of cheeses and a corn flake breading. The breading was nice and crispy and the cheese inside was soft to almost runny. The best part IMO was the melba sauce. Our two 8-inch square (6 pieces each) pizzas were delivered in a very reasonable 15 minutes. My wife went with the weekly special Shrimp Scampi ($17). I choose the basic cheese pizza with San Marzano tomatoes ($12) and added three toppings (sausage, mushrooms, & peppers) for $7 more. Both of our pizzas were flavorful and were actually more flavorful the second day - although less crispy, of course. Just like I've never been to Nathans for fries, I've never had pizza in Detroit. If I'm comparing Detroit Style pizza in Colonie with Detroit Style pizza in Saratoga Springs, I would prefer Saratoga. While KB&G has an airy dough, I think Whitman's is slightly lighter and airier. Both have nice crispy cheese edges, but KB&G edge is oilier. Somebody let me know what days/times are the slowest. I'd like to return.

A regular fries and a drink brought the total to around $27 (!). Food was ready in about 5 minutes (they give you a light-up device so you don't have to wait in line) and we took it to our table. I have eaten at another location and knew what to expect. The burger was very good, though also greasy. I like thin, crispy burgers and they do it well though despite the handy paper handle to hold it with your fingers will get very messy. My son absolutely loved his burger too. The fries were much better than what I had experienced at their other location. These seemed pre-cut, perhaps pre-frozen, and coated in cornstarch. The top of the container were nice and crispy though they got soggy as you went down. I wish they arranged them flat on a plate, which might keep their texture better (though result in them getting colder faster). All in all, I like this place. Their prices are very steep for the small burgers you get, but they are high quality. So, I dunno. I can't come here more than for special occasions but when I do I think I will just stick with the burgers and skip the fries.
