I ordered the garden party cocktail which tasted good but the mint they put in it looked old and kinda brown so I took that out before drinking.

This really feels like a bar for regulars, don't expect attentive service if you aren't one, especially at the bar. Their menu has a bunch of bar food staples, with the addition of a handful of meat-free options, which I very much appreciate. I know they're just frozen ones, but I do think they serve one of my fave mozz sticks and melba around; they always come out perfectly fried with a great cheese pull. I also really like their cauliflower bites and onion rings. No frills here, just good drinks and food to go along with them -- exactly what you want from a bar. Also, their patio is nice on summer nights.

Awesome local tavern with friendly staff and delicious eats!…read more I stopped in on a weekday for lunch and was immediately greeted by the bartender who was also the waitress for the whole place. Despite her being the only person up front, she warmly welcomed everyone and the service was great. I met a friend of mine who was craving wings so she ordered some hot wings and I got the Turkey Brie sandwich, which had turkey, brie cheese, apples and cranberry mayo on ciabatta bread with a side salad. The sandwich was delicious and piled high with turkey. My friend loved her wings too. Overall, the food was great as was the service. Definitely recommend!

After finally trying the Beef on Weck sandwich from the recommendation from a friend I was really…read moreglad I had. I ordered this as takeout and just had to take a couple of bites in the car before going home to try it nice and warm. This kind of sandwich is hard to find. A special roll needs to be used for this called a kimmelweck roll. A kimmelweck (or kummelweck) roll is a crunchy, Kaiser-type bread roll topped with coarse salt and aromatic caraway seeds, primarily known for defining the Buffalo, New York, "beef on weck" sandwich. Originating from 19th-century German immigrant traditions, they are usually filled with roast beef and soaked in au jus. The sandwich was loaded with juicy flavorful roast beef. The bun had caraway seeds and coarse salt all over the top of it which complimented the beef deliciously. It also had a horseradish sauce on the sandwich, so good. It was served with tasty fries and two little cups of au jus. I would definitely order this again.

Got food from this location 11 years ago when I was a patient at Albany Med, as we all know…read moreHospital food stinks. Was out in Albany for a procedure and after not eating since midnight the night before I was starving. This restaurant is conveniently located to the medical center (across the street) and can be accessed by using the breezeway/ bridges that connect outlying buildings to hospital without having to go out in the cold. This place is generally packed but was quiet when we went. The food is consistently good and this visit was no exception. What made the experience top notch was the wait staff that came by to make sure we had everything and that food was prepared to our liking. She was warm and friendly and truly was an asset to this restaurant. Recovery Room has specials each week and we were lucky to make it for the Burger special. Highly recommend to those close by or those visiting Albany Med.
