    a hot dog on a red plate
    Meghana A.

    Good for a drunk college student after a long night of whatever they do and now looking for anything to soak it all up ... least would they care about flavor. However walk in there with a lil more cash than you anticipate coz it's going to cost you a lot more than a great slice of pizza. We had a chicken philly, veggie burrito and jalapeño poppers ... all very disappointing. Quality had definitely dropped over time... which probably is why I would not return again.

    Harvest chicken salad with bacon, walnuts, croutons, onions and raisins.

    The best Harvest Chicken Salad ever! Large portion enough for lunch and some for later. Fresh and delish. Only @ $12. Ordered online, pickup, no waiting.

    Pepper Jacks is consistent. I was first introduced to the food years and years ago at a housewarming party and fell in love. I can't eat it too often because it's pretty rich but man is it tasty. My most recent experience was the avocado fries and they were tasty. They had a little kick in the breading and that made them even better. I've never had a bad meal there and cannot imagine I ever would.

    In the years I've been in Albany, I've never heard of this place! We had a late night snack and tried Pepper Jack for to go options. I don't think this review is going to be all representative since I've only ordered one thing at one time point, but hopefully further visits will add to this review! Chicken burrito: This is had rice and cheese and chicken in it. I asked for no beans. It was a decent burrito, but I felt like there wasn't much flavor and pow from the cheese. I was expecting some melted cheese to blend the flavors of the chicken and rice, but it was lukewarm and kind of hardened. The chicken was decent, but it was incredibly flavorful or seasoned. The portion was very generous, though, and I definitely felt like I had a food baby afterwards!! There are definitely a lot more things on the menu that I want to try before I make a more decisive opinion! Looking to more feasts here.

There has been some turnover in staff but they were just as friendly, helpful and professional as I remembered. I kept it casual and picked a Tofu Banh Mi which is a Vietnamese sandwich. It came with greens. I really enjoyed this dish. It was filling but didn't weigh me down. I ordered Wayward Lane Brewing Monarca Gold: A Mexican-style lager. It was very good but I have to admit I ordered because I liked the butterfly on the can. I actually liked my friend's dark smoked beer even better. Wayward Lane Brewing's Lifeblood looked like stout and tasted a bit like smoked bacon to me even though it was supposed to feature notes of toasted brown bread and caramelized sugar. My friend also had truffle ( mushroom) fries and a smash burger. He loved the meal. Dove & Deer is a pretty place. Attractive furniture and light fixtures. Big windows. A nice variety of food and beverage that you might not find everywhere else.

Also, Dove + Deer has a current welcome gift of $30 off of $90. Anywho, I felt like getting pancakes and these were nice and fluffy with a nice chew. The strawberries were sweet and soft and the maple syrup was great. The eggs were scrambled perfectly as well, with great flavor - shocking because most eggs are so flavorless. You get a choice of additional protein and I chose the maple sausage which was delicious as well. The only thing that could be improved was a bit more salt and/or pepper on the home fries but I guess most people use the ketchup that's given, so I understand the under seasoning. The service was friendly albeit infrequent, and that's just fine. Water is left on the table for self-service and that's really why I need additional service attention anyway. All in all, a great brunch place because it has lots of space and feels casual and comfortable. Try it.

It's a comfortable and cozy space with good drinks and a quite eclectic menu for a place you think is going to be serving up typical bar food. I enjoy their focus on local and in-season ingredients, I'm always keeping an eye on their Instagram to see what their unique specials are; their recent ode to leeks was so tasty. There is always something vegetarian/vegan on the menu so I never have to worry. Brunch here is also a great idea, those house made biscuits are worth stopping in alone. Lost & Found really focuses on highlighting and supporting Albany/the Capital Region whether it's with their ingredients, drinks, or live music so I feel even better about supporting them. Once they start offering a plant-based hot dog so I can join in on the fun and deliciousness of the Wednesday hotdog club I will rush back to give them that 5th star ;)

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.
