I've always wanted to visit More Perreca's on Jay St. I've heard so much about the restaurant and…read moreespecially the bakery, Perreca's, located right next door. The businesses are located a couple of blocks from the gateway marking the entrance to Schenectady's Little Italy. So much history, food and romance in this neighborhood. We had Sunday brunch at More Perreca's. The bakery is closed on Sunday but I got a Sausage Lettuce Tomato sandwich served on toasted Perreca's bread. It was so delish. The Italian sausage was served with lettuce, tomato, roasted garlic puree, mayo and side salad. Everything was so fresh. My $11 meal was reasonably priced. The garlic purée was amazing. They need to bottle it. I'd buy some. My friend had the Mac and cheese and an espresso martini. He loved both. Rachelle was our server. She was wonderful. Very helpful. She explained some of the menu to me because there were a number of Italian sausage dishes. The food was prepared quickly which was great because we were hungry. Rachelle came back later to check on us. I gave her a thumbs up and a smile while busily chewing a bite of sandwich. The restaurant is charming with nice tin ceilings and big windows to let the light in. There are many booths which makes it cozy. When we arrived most of the tables were full. Based on the chatter in the room it sounded as though a lot of friends had gathered at the restaurant to literally break bread over brunch. The menu offers a nice variety: from egg breakfasts, assorted salads to Italian classics. It was an all around yummy and enjoyable experience. I let Rachelle know that we'll be coming back.

Our server, Rachelle M. was great! My app was garlic parm wings that were tasty & crispy-perfect. Three of us had the eggs in purgatory- 3 eggs cooked in a spicy marinara sauce w/ 4 pieces of toasted Perreca's famous Italian bread. Highly recommend this dish that's always on their menu. Others had the very good eggplant rollatini over spaghetti. The original coal-fired bakery is next door offering their signature crusty bread, red tomato pie, cheeses, meatballs, salamis, soppersottas, olives, giant cupcakes, & cannolli. Located in Schenectady's Little Italy. Restaurant hours: Sun, Wed, Thursday 11am-7pm, Fri & Sat 10am-8pm, closed Mon & Tue. More's Perreca's never disappoints. Beer, wine, & cocktails served so try here for brunch too. Thank you, Rachelle & staff. We had a great time. Nick & Liz, Albany, NY, USA

My family and I have been to Glenville Queen Diner many times and have always had good experiences,…read moreespecially with Hector, one of the managers, who has always been kind and welcoming. Unfortunately, tonight's experience was very different, and it will be our last visit. My husband and I went for dinner. He ordered breakfast, and I ordered the chopped sirloin steak with mushroom gravy. When my meal arrived, the steak was completely covered in gravy. Once I moved the gravy aside, the meat looked more like a hamburger than a steak. After cutting into it and tasting it, I found the texture extremely odd--like ground beef formed into a steak--and it had virtually no flavor. My husband tasted it as well and agreed. I told our waiter, who looked at it and agreed it appeared unusual. He spoke with the manager and came back telling me the only thing they could offer was a box to take it home. I explained that I didn't want to take home something I wasn't going to eat and asked that they take it back. After waiting about 10 minutes, the manager, Sherry, came to the table. Instead of trying to resolve the issue, she explained that what I ordered was exactly what I received and proceeded to explain what a chopped steak was. I understand now that their chopped steak is essentially ground/chopped beef formed back together and served with gravy. However, that is not what I expected when ordering a "chopped sirloin steak," and I believe the menu should clearly explain how it is prepared. When I said I would not be eating or paying for the entrée, she responded, "But you will pay for the side salad and fries that you ate," and walked away before I could respond. I found her attitude extremely disappointing and unprofessional. The sides weren't impressive either. The salad was very wet and unappetizing, so I gave it to my husband, and the fries were roughly half a potato and tasted greasy. Yet I was charged $6.99 for the salad and $4.19 for the fries. I did speak with Hector afterward and explained what happened. He told me that the waiter, who was new, should have explained exactly what the chopped steak was before I ordered it. I appreciated his acknowledgment because that is exactly how this situation could have been avoided. I would have gladly ordered another entrée and paid for it if the situation had been handled differently. Instead, I was offered a box for a meal I didn't want and then treated poorly when I declined. It's unfortunate because we have enjoyed this diner in the past. But between the misleading description of the entrée and the way my concern was handled by management, we will not be returning.

The menu options change weekly and I'd describe a lot of the choices as "old school American" fare. Beef stroganoff? Honestly, I never had it in my life but my companion ordered it....and loved it. Pierogis? Absolutely. Give me ALL the carbs. Served with cabbage, onions and plenty of butter....truly decadent. We did start with a French onion soup (high praise: delicious)...I had the shrimp and grits app. VERY generous portion...I could have just had that and my salad but no...I kept eating. Speaking of salads, they are fresh, crispy mixed greens and clearly made to order. Dressings tasted homemade. No room for dessert but we did enjoy a glass of wine each. Generous pours and really reasonable pricing. Super cozy yet casual vibe with awesome service. We would go back just to hang out with Cara (owner...not sure if I'm spelling her name right). Thanks to our friends that own another restaurant nearby for recommending!!

I got the Turkey & Bacon triple decker with Russian, no tomato and a side of mac salad. The turkey is roasted in-house and has no added salt but plenty of flavor. It was moist, sliced thick piled high. The Russian dressing was good too. They make their mac salad with egg, celery, and carrots. I didn't taste any additional seasoning and to be honest I'm not even sure if they add mayo. I added a little salt and pepper because it was kinda bland for my taste but overall it was decent. I really hate Mac salad that is wet and has a pickle/vinegar taste and this was not like that at all. $16.50 isn't a bad price considering the amount of meat. I've been paying more than that for breakfast lately.
