First time coming here on our way back from Herkimer, New York…read more Jose was our server and he was amazing. We saw a sign on the door that if you danced your way to your table, you got something free... So we danced! We got a free taco and a free shot! We started off with the patron tree and ordered mango, peach, raspberry, and strawberry. We opted for on the rocks versus frozen. All of them were very good not overly sweet. For apps, we got chips and homemade salsa with the diablito queso (jalapeños) We ordered the Birria tacos, and the three taco combination with Carnitas and tacos al Pastor. There's a cute little photo station and a chill bar set up.

On our second visit, we asked for napkins 3 times, and the server said sure and just never came back with them. Without any explanation our server was changed out mid meal with another, and she was much better. Immediately had our empty waters filled and asked if we were ready for another round of drinks. The contrast was adult identifiable. Food here is good and comes out fast and piping hot. Service needs some tuning and it wasn't slammed during both of my visits. They seem ti have plenty of servers and help on duty, but they all seem running around but not doing what is needed to tend to the tables/guests. I will go back and again, the food is good and value/price for portion and quality very reasonable.

Service was great, despite there being only 1 server when I was in. Food was great. Had the carne asade fries to start, it's served on crispy waffle fries and the carne asade was super tender.

Well I decided to give Tipsy Taco Cantina a try after hearing mixed opinions about it. With that…read moresaid, I was pretty disappointed with my experience. Knowing that, I started things off with the pizza empanadas and the results were not good. To explain, the empanadas themselves were crispy and fresh. However, the inside was disgusting. The sausage tasted rotten and the marinara did not work at all with the empanadas. If the empanadas were filled with chicken or beef they would have been pretty good. After that, I ordered the Crunchwrap Supreme with chicken for my entree. Sadly, it was not enjoyable. To enumerate, the tortilla was fine, but the chicken was dry and tasted weird. Similarly, the cilantro creama was nasty. It was over the top sour and didn't work at all with the crunchwrap. The food was simply disappointing. When it comes down to it, Tipsy Taco Cantina is a below average restaurant that is not worth eating at with so many better options in the area.

Boyfriend and I were in Albany NY for one night - he wanted to go to Cheesecake Factory, but the…read morewait is apparently typically long on a weekend night (I have no idea - never been there!) so we decided not to chance it, and uber'ed from our hotel to this restaurant, hoping it would be good. I'll be honest - my heart sank as we got there, I almost cried. The neighborhood is *sketch*. The outside of the restaurant didn't look like much - but I felt better once we got in. Beautifully decorated with great lighting, lounge-style atmosphere. Great Latin music. We sat on the bar side as it was less busy. Beautiful bar with lots of options! Bartender made us **amazing** margaritas... omg were they strong! Loved it! Since we had never been there before, we played it safe. First we went with a fried calamari appetizer - not the best, but not bad - but then it's not typically something you'd order at a Mexican food restaurant. Boyfriend had the street steak tacos as main - hold the cheese as he forgot his lactaid, lol - and I had the steak quesadilla. Delicious! We loved it. The steak was especially well seasoned, not overcooked and sides were yummy. We ended the evening with churros - definitely homemade and on par with the ones we love at El Mirador in NH. Boyfriend even took his life in his hands and had some of the ice cream, couldn't resist - it was that good! Overall, as Boyfriend put it - this is absolutely a hidden gem type of spot - service was spectacular, food was delicious and we would totally return! (**Seated next to us were two young women on an obvious first date - girl #1 showed up, then girl #2 showed up a few minutes later with a big bouquet of flowers... what a nice touch! We just wanted to put it out in the universe - we hope you guys make it, you were super cute :)**)

I wanted to give L'Roca five stars because it has so much going for it including a charming staff…read morebut on our particular visit, service was extremely slow. There's also an irony here, because this is the only Capital Region restaurant I've encountered that adds a service charge to the bill of between 15- 20 percent. I'm assuming this is a new practice because service charges-- which are common in cities like Miami-- are not mentioned in any of the previous Yelp reviews for L'Roca. This Latin-American restaurant has been open for about a year. When I looked online, the general explanation for service charges is that restaurants collect these fees to offset operational costs and management has the option to put a portion of the fees towards tips for staff but they don't have to. I asked the servers if that was true and they said yes. So for a meal that basically cost about $60, there was an addition service charge of over $12 and since it appears that only part of it will go towards tips, I paid an additional $10 in hopes that the staff could get a decent tip and with tax my whole meal cost over $90. That was a bit of a surprise. On the bright side, loved the light up menus and the food is great. My friend loved his steak and side dishes. I thought the fried green plantains were especially delicious. I liked the pigeon peas and stew,too. It was a Friday night and I'm glad they were busy but the wait for everything and anything was long. We were shown a table in the back because the seating in the front of the restaurant was almost full. I wasn't upset when it took a while for a server come back to take our orders. But there was also a wait of more than a half hour--perhaps as much as 40 minutes--before the food was served which was unfortunate because my friend was very hungry. The great sound system helped us pass the time. There's even a jukebox. With the dim lighting and the pretty decor, the back room had the feel of a nightclub. We ordered dessert to go but even getting the slice of very good tres leches cake took an additional fifteen minute wait. The kitchen may have been overwhelmed. The two or three servers were at times distracted. They got into conversations together and the bartender had to remind them that customers were waiting to be seated. I saw no apparent manager on duty. I would like to return because I hope the problems are an aberration. Other reviews indicate some service issues but nothing as we experienced. With talented chefs and a friendly staff, I wish them success. I also wish they'd lose the service charges and improve time management.

Is it a 3 or a 4 star? Food - 4; Ambiance - 3; and service - 5. Average comes to 4. Parking…read moreis adequate except on Cinco dr Mayo. It is a very bright venue with loud music. Service is fast (most likely hoping for fast turnover). Chips and salsa delivered upon arrival. Ordered a chicken fajita / taco salad. An abundance of peppers but could have used more lettuce to satisfy the salad portion. SO ordered a steak dish which was more than enough for 2 meals. So maybe, it's all in what you order. Is it someplace I'd go back? Sure, it'll get added to our list of places to return to.

I decided to give Don Tequila a try after hearing mixed things about it. With that being said, it…read moreturned out to be a painfully average restaurant. With that known, I ordered the Tex Mex nachos for an appetizer and they were actually very good. To explain, the chips tasted fresh and homemade. Likewise, the cheese sauce was hot and had nice flavor. I really enjoyed the nachos and I hoped my entree would be just as good, but sadly that didn't happen. Knowing that, I ordered the shrimp and steak fajitas for my dinner and I was disappointed. To breakdown, the steak was terrible. It was cut extremely thin and was as tough as a tire. Similarly, the tortillas tasted store bought and had a weird taste to them. On the flip side, the shrimp, peppers, and onions were all enjoyable. They tasted fresh and were actually cooked properly. That said, the fajitas weren't terrible, but I wouldn't get them again. Conclusively, Don Tequila is a mediocre Mexican restaurant that is nothing to write home about.

I was invited to come here for a trivia night, and spoiler alert, we won! We had a great evening of…read moremargaritas, Mexican and trivia. We had a group of 6 and we were seated at a long table right by the bar. We enjoyed some chips and queso before ordering dinner. Service was extremely slow this night, it was busy for trivia, but it almost felt like the guy was avoiding us. We eventually got drinks, I had the skinny margarita and it was standard. We did get our dinners before trivia started, and we all enjoyed it. I got the fajitas but the pan was way too hot, I think it kept sizzling for like 5 minutes and everything was kinda burning to the pan. Luckily I don't mind a bit of char. Everyone ordered something different and everything looked good, my friend seemed to really enjoy the molcajete dish. The food was overall not bad, the drinks were good, but service was an issue. The trivia host was great and we were on fire! We won a gift card for the restaurant so who knows, we might be back for trivia again.

The service was quick and fun! Loved our server and she was really knowledgeable on the menu! We came for dinner. Drinks were strong but yummy! We ordered the southern chicken, chicken shawarma skewers, Kentucky mule, chocolate tahine, and the banana split. The southern popcorn chicken was served in a large bowl with fried pickles and homemade sauces. It was as you would expect but it was A LOT of chicken haha! The skewers were really very good. The chocolate tahine was incredibly rich and filling, very easy to split with I'd even say up to 4 people! Banana split was yummy churros were a bit too hard for my taste but it was good! I wish the drinks weren't so strong I struggled to finish mine and my husband couldn't finish his because he was driving! Overall beautiful place and I'd love to try it again for brunch sometime!
