    Briskwt so tender and yummy
    Nette B.

    I wasa in Cohoes and wants to eat bbq. Searched tiktok and someone featured this. I ordered the 2 meats - brisket and ribs. They are both yummy and tender. The nnq is dey rubbed with side of sauce. The sauce is really good. The brisket has a little crisp on the outside and tender inside. The server is really nice. The place seems small but it really isnot. It has more tables at the back. I would recommend this place if you like bbq

    Nashville Hot Chicken Sandwich
    Bri N.

    Had an INCREDIBLE experience at Signal 30. From the moment we walked in til the moment we left. Service was amazing, all of servers were attentive and friendly. The Food? Amazing. My husband and I ordered chicken wings to start. They were so good I forgot to take a picture. The meals were delicious. It was our first time here and definitely not our last!

    Quesadilla with pulled pork
    Annie F.

    Went here for lunch on a Friday afternoon and was greeted immediately by the bartender, who was also the waitress. We ordered two beers, including Sam Adams Cherry Wheat, which she said comes with or without maraschino cherries. Of course I had to try it with cherries and it was great! For lunch, my boyfriend and I ordered the Cheesesteak with peppers and Chipotle mayo. You can customize it to your liking by choosing two toppings and a sauce on it, which was awesome. I ordered the quesadilla with pulled pork. Both arrived piping hot and were fantastic! Both dishes had tons of meat on them and tasted great. We're looking forward to returning for dinner as well as breakfast, which they just launched. Highly recommend this gem in Cohoes!

    My wife and I stopped in for dinner last night and everything was great, from the service, the perfectly poured pint of Guinness to the 1st rate chow. We will definitely return,

    Pulled pork Mac and cheese! Yum.....

    If you are looking for bbq this is the best! The portions are large, the bbq is the tastiest! Small hometown bar with tables for restaurant. Very homey and family like feeling. I'd go back and soon.

    We order the bristke dinner20.wow it was dry and unseason. I will never order. I work hard for my money not to Get reimbursement. Please don't order here again

    "The Hercules"
    Stefan H.

    Generous servings of good BBQ at reasonable prices! Got "The Hercules", which is 3 meats and 2 sides. Ribs fell of the bone, brisket was moist and tender! Pulled pork was more like pulverized pork, but lean and smokey like the other meats! Onion rings and Cole slaw were unremarkable. Cornbread was had more of a cake-like texture. I'd forgotten that Labatts draft, which I enjoy, is readily available in the Capital District! Theresa provided great service! Will definitely be heading back for another good meal!

    Take out Platter when I got home.
    Jeffrey L.

    Hello Folks! Long term Cohoes resident. A Regular patron of the precious ownership. Also a regular patron of a competitor on 787. Both are good businesses. But, I stopped in today on the way home for an order to go. I was hungry for BBQ and didn't want to go further from my home. I asked server (Sam) what were the favorites. She said the Platters. I ordered a combo platter of Ribs & Brisket with two sides. (Mac & Chs & garlic mashed) OMG! I got home and it was Delicious! Melt in your mouth. I got a sampler of sauces & all were terrific! They also serve Ice Cream. That will be my next visit! If it is as good as the popular place on Rt 9, I won't have to leave Cohoes for good Ice Cream! Keep you posted. BRAVO SIGNAL 30.

    Burrito
    Lynn S.

    Ordered dinner from this awesome bbq restaurant. A small spot, but always packed! The food is absolutely delicious! We had a burrito, chicken bowl, hot chicken sandwich, and tons of sides! Everything tasted great! A must try if close by Or stopping through! (They even have ice cream in the side as well)

    Pick up order, appeared to have been reheated several times, tasteless and burnt. Total cost was $35.00, for a terrible experience.

    This restaurant is everything I don't really like, but I still had a good time. We arrived after…read moremaking reservations the day of on a Saturday evening at 7:45PM. It was darkly lit inside (with pinkish/red lights no less); it was extremely loud to the point that I had trouble understanding what my wife was saying (which might not be the background music!); and the prices were expensive. The entire night they played 1980s New-wave British music which I don't mind, but had it been something I detest I would have lost my mind. We were seated at a tiny table with a small candle which provided some actual heat on the cold winter night. Our server was extremely helpful and though he didn't have all the answers he did offer to go and find out. They have a long menu but it doesn't have a lot of food options on it, with most of the pages devoted to alcohol. They had only one dessert option when we were there. My wife and I both ordered the Hanger Steak with fries, mushroom sauce, and green salad (about $40 each). Hanger steak is my favorite cut and hard to find so I jumped on it. Food came out in about 25 minutes, which is amazing considering how small their kitchen is. The steak was cooked perfectly (they didn't ask how we wanted it), smothered in a lovely mushroom sauce, and covered an ample portion of crispy homemade fries which were so good I would have thought them bagged frozen items. Even the basic salad which was just various types of lettuce was great. They aren't cheap, but they are focusing on "farm to table" and that means quality food at commensurate (fair?) prices. Burgers and chicken sandwiches are $15, so if you want something lighter but still tasty you can go that route. Speaking of light, if you go into the bathroom on the right you will find a cold, dark, tiny room lit solely by a PINK bulb. It feels like being on a spaceship (as if I know what that is like), and after when you leave seeing the main light in the restaurant is very jarring. It was a fun experience but not inexpensive and not one that checks the boxes that I look for in a restaurant. Dark, loud, and cramped might be hip for the young or "save the earth" crowd, but I am too old to give up creature comforts for such things. The food, though expensive, was absolutely outstanding in every way though and I won't forget that steak for a long time.

People kept telling me, " It's across the street from The Ruck. You know, The Ruck?" That was no help to me. I was unfamiliar with this tavern. To think that it's more famous than the county offices sparked my curiosity. So after I took care of my paperwork with the county I stopped in at The Ruck. I would describe it as a business and dive bar that makes craft beers. I made it in for lunch on a weekday. I took a seat at the bar. I was surprised to see the menu was quite extensive. There was a nice selection of soups. I ordered a cup of Greens and Beans along with 5 oz. of Fat Orange Cat Brew Chonky . I liked the beer. The soup was quite good, too. The man seated next to me was eating wings. He was raving about them. He said they were the best in town. I'll have to try them next time. Service is very good. The bartender was a good guy. Very nice and helpful. He said that on football game nights the bar is packed with Bills fans. Sounds like a lot of fun.

I was missing a shake, the second wasn't filled because the employee didn't want to refill the machine. I paid for extra sauces and never got them. I also got someone else's burger and tenders, not that I'm complaining about free food, but someone else is gonna be upset. A couple behind waited for 35 minutes on one burger until I just gave them the extra one out of my bag. In my opinion it's either time to shut this location down or restart, restaff, and retrain the whole place. That's even before you consider the high prices coupled with the long wait times. After eating what I could of the food, the fries aren't cooked, the burgers are completely burnt, and the milkshakes might as well have been milk.

Definitely a better option that most of the fast food spots. We all ordered double cheeseburgers and shared a loaded fries for our party. The double cheeseburgers came in the most adorable little sleeves and were reasonably priced at $9.95. I am not an onions or thousand Italian dressing person and the girl taking our order was nice to let me know and be able to remove them from my burger. The burgers are grass fed which is a huge plus. They also have GF buns and vegan options as well! The loaded fries were heavy with cheese and caramelized onions and delicious. We orders two of their famous milkshakes to go one chocolate and one strawberry. Highly recommend the strawberry as there is no food coloring and it was amazing and super thick. The parking outside is street parking and you can easily find a spot.
