    BEWARE OF YOUR BILL... Food was good. Id give it 4 stars on that.. [[HIGHLIGHT]]the restaurant was clean which I appreciate.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] However beware that if you are seated at a table with more than 6 people you will automatically be charged $11.50 for a staffing fee. I was mind blown by this, as we sat at two tables put together with my brother's family. (Each having separate bills) and we were not notified about this. We didn't notice until leaving and reviewing the receipt. This "fee" was charged to both our card and our brothers card. After we left a tip on top of this. After calling and speaking to a manager he told me he'd have it refunded to me, but still this feels very sneaky. We were not told about this. Also we were nickel and dimed for every little thing. Sauces were 75 cents, and pepperoni on my daughter's kids pizza was $1 and she didn't even get pepperoni it came out cheese. Bummer!!

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Wife and I went here for brunch and football and had an absolute blast.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The waitresses were handling lots of random problems with ease. We had a couple orders of the build your own mimosas and the juices and purees were amazing. I got the eggs in a basket and my wife has the chicken and waffles. We both raved about how good the sausage tasted and we of course had to take down some of the delicious buffalo chicken dip. All were great brunch bites and we will definitely be back here!

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Great place to watch football, and the bar service is excellent.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Love to sit at the bar and watch the games, have a glass of wine and a delicious salad.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The cheese tots and buffalo wrap are a fav of my husband's. We enjoy coming here!

    Good service and good food--you can't ask for more. I didn't like the French fries but not everything can be a win. Decent sized portions, too.

    Margarita with casamigos blanco

    Keep in mind I was pretty hungry here lol. Came here to the Guiderland location for the first time with the family. We were seated pretty quickly which is great. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The atmosphere seemed pretty vibrant.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The tables they sat us at felt like they weren't yet cleaned. Super sticky so points off for that[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] . My margarita was solid so no complaints there. The chicken Ceaser wrap wasn't dry and pretty tasty. The fries at this place were a pleasant surprise. I recommend having them with whatever you order. My daughter said the Buffalo Mac and cheese was tasty and filling. Overall solid experience and I would give at least one more try.

    Burrito bowl as served. Pretty ok.

    Many vegetarian options including seitan wings. I had the burrito bowl with rice warmed up. Wasn't the special Rice quinoa advertised but ok. Was essentially a rice bowl. I skipped the protein. Not bad. Decent beer selections . Very good service at the bar. Clean. Lots of parking. All TV's on baseball - needed some golf IMHO!

    The food there is excellent. I really enjoyed the food at this restaurant and I think that the price for the food is reasonable it's not too low it's not too high it's right where it should be. I believe for what they serve. The service is very good. They have a lot of different People there but the ones who waited on us have been very nice very friendly, very outgoing always attentive to our needs and what we're looking for so we've had no problems with getting our food or getting our service when we needed it. As far as the ambience, it was a clean atmosphere, and they do have a lot of TVs, but unfortunately the wave that it set up you don't have the ability to watch the TV in every seat that you are in you might have to turn your neck and look at the TV to see what in particular game or show that you wanna watch that playing at that time that's the only downside to that place and the only reason why it lost the star. If you're ever in the area, give them a try. Thank you for listening.

    I went here for a birthday dinner with a party of 8. We found that the resturaunt was VERY loud…read morewhich made it tough to hear each other but the live music was pretty good. The service was fantastic and the servers were very attentive. I got the chicken pot pie which probably could have served 3 people it was so large (So I have lots of leftovers I took home!) Very creamy and comforting. Other people in the party got burgers, tacos, and the grilled cheese and everyone was very satisfied! Ending the meal with a piece of dark chocolate was a nice surprise! Definitely the place to go for a unique but delicious classic meal.

    **Disappointed by Service at Blackbirds Tavern**…read more I visited Blackbirds Tavern this evening with my son-in-law, who was in town and looking to pick up a selection of beers for company. We were the only people at the bar. I ordered an iced tea, which the bartender acknowledged--but never served. My son-in-law asked if he could try a flight to sample a few options, but was told flights weren't available. I then suggested a couple of small samples, which the bartender agreed to--but again, nothing was provided. After waiting quite a while, my son-in-law decided to purchase two four-packs of beer and four Druthers glasses. I left the bar with an empty growler and one of the four-packs. While he was paying for his items, the bartender accused me of walking out with the iced tea--despite never having received it. My son-in-law pointed this out Instead, of removing the charge for the ice tea the bartender handed my son in law the iced tea in a plastic cup. It was a frustrating and frankly humiliating experience to be accused of taking a drink I never received, and then be forced to pay for it. I hope the management takes note and improves the consistency and professionalism of their service.

    My wife and I stopped by with our three friends about 8pm on Saturday night. I was pleasantly…read moresurprised by the nice ambiance and decor with what looked like a copper top ceiling, a main bar, a few raised tables and 2 cozy leather chairs that made me think of enjoying a nice after dinner bourbon in the study of an late 19th to early 20th century study of a business tycoon or politician from that time period.. The bar tender, Noah, was impressive and friendly in that he knew his liquor stock very well, and could explain the flavor intricacies of the various types of bourbon, vodka, and gins. They also offer some non,-alcoholic beverages for the "designated driver" of the group too. We watched Noah make everything from regular and "dirty martinis" with fresh ingredients, as well as one drink where he used a butane lighter and some tiny cedar chips in a straining tool above the drink to give it a fresh, authentic smoky look and flavor. Noah knows his stuff!!!!! The patrons were friendly, diverse, and easy to socialize with if you chose to do so. The establishment is pet friendly for "socialized pets" with a water bowl outside the establishment and some free Milkbone treats inside. Keep in mind that this establishment is a "tasting room" with the majority of products from the New Scotland Distillery, but there are other options. Just don't expect to get a Bud Light Draft or food here. The only downside is that parking in the Lark Steet and State Street location is difficult to obtain without some effort, but we managed to park our vehicles 2 blocks away. This is not a direct criticism of the establishment because the experience is well worth this minor potential inconvenience. We would definitely go back there again, especially for the specialty drinks or the flights and half flights of their bourbon and vodka products. Thank you once again, Noah, for a pleasant and educational evening!!!

Unfortunately, it was not a great experience. The bartender served our drinks with no napkins and no lime. Details are key in a place like this. It was also loud, and it looked like a birthday party was happening. If that was the case, maybe the place should have closed to the public to accommodate that celebration. People were loud and drunk, and the birthday boy was saying vulgar things. We will not be coming back.

    My wife and I went to Marisa's Place for pizza after listening to a review on TikTok purporting it…read moreto be the best pizza in the area. Skeptics that we are, we needed to see for ourselves. We walk into the place and they have a small pizza counter. The bar and restaurant are through the double doors to your left. I don't recall any type of seating at the pizza counter area. I think that's for pickup or if you want to stop in for a couple slices to go. I would imagine they do some slamming slices business during lunch. We walk into the bar area and four people are seated at the bar enjoying their pizzas. We were debating whether to wait to be seated or sit at the bar when the bartender/waitress asked if we were looking to be seated. Yes, we are. She asked if we had reservations. We did not, but she said that was fine. We were seated in the back which was pretty dimly lit. Ambiance. I usually gauge a pie's taste by a plain pie, but I saw they had cupped pepperoni so we had to order a pepperoni pie because I don't know of any other place near us that has cupped pepperoni. We also got the meatballs for an appetizer. For drinks, plain water. Extra water was brought to us in a bottle that was chilled... no ice. Very nice touch. More water that way. The water tasted really clean too. Special mention needs to go to the bartender/waitress who held down the fort all by herself maintaining the bar area and serving out the food to table customers as they were coming out. One group came after us and then another group of six were seated across from us. I don't know about the first group, but the group of six had reservations. We got the meatballs, which come with three as an appetizer. We each took one and my wife asked me, "So, what do you think?" I thought there were really good meatballs. A lot of times they're really dense and the meat tastes weird. These were soft, moist, and very flavorful. We even were eating the sauce out of the bowl afterwards. Really good sauce, full of tomato chunks, not sweet, and not acidy either. It was just perfectly tasty. The group of six with reservations, who got seated AFTER us, got their pizza first. I told my wife that it pays to have reservations. We were cool with that. We know for next time. We got our pie soon afterwards and had to take pictures. It did look really good. The pepperonis were about the size of nickels, perfectly cupped. The crust had the char that I always look for. This looked really promising. We both grabbed a slice, folded it and took a bite of heaven. The bottom crust is thin and crunchy. The sauce and cheese tasted fresh and not plasticky like some cheeses can be. The pepperonis added a nice flavor kick to everything else going on. I then went for the gold. My teeth sank into crust the crunch reverberating throughout my skull. Wow!!! This crust was light, airy, and crunchy. This pie was firing nitro on all cylinders!!! I was so blown away. Even my wife said, "I never saw you enjoy a pizza so much. It was like you were back in NYC." If that isn't an endorsement for Marisa's, I don't know what is. We took half the pie home because I wanted to same some for tomorrow's lunch. We finished the meal with a shared slice of NY Cheesecake. Not as creamy as NJ Diner cheesecake, but definitely hit the marks for a good NY Cheesecake. We left Marisa's with full stomachs and smiles on our faces. We'll be back.
