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.

The name is exactly what my first impression of the bar was before entering. Yet, when you're stuck in Albany bored and sober as hell, there's no reason to pass up a place based on its shady appearance or the fight in progress right outside the door. It made me realize that this is what all the faux dives in NYC wished they were. You end up here for one (or all) of the reasons as outlined in Iffy's motto: Drink. Fight. Fuck. It is a place for people who hate the college bars. Pool sharks rule the billiards table- the brightest part of this dimly-lit establishment- and will most likely kick your butt in the game as skillfully as they can break your face outside of it. It's a haven for people who just want to mind their own business and get away from the world, or themselves. It attracts the most diverse demographic of miserable souls, mental states, and deviants in every social class that exists in the capital of our Empire State. One of my favorite regulars is a woman with Tourette's, who isn't afraid to say exactly what I think all the time, to pretty much everyone who comes within one foot of her:"If you get in my way, I will FUCK YOU UP!" It's technically Iffy's II, as this is a rusty phoenix of its original location that was torn down for parking an indefinite number of years ago. No one seems to know how old this bar is. The only thing you need to know is that the nicest person in there is the bartender, who is armed with a smile and enthusiasm to get you wasted on $3 beers and $5 cocktails so strong that anyone caught drinking them here is immediately associated with addiction of some kind. This is a joint I will definitely return to when I'm in town. If it's not to get completely trashed, it will be to get my dad lotto. Did I mention they have a lotto machine? Maybe I'll come back to drown my sorrows in more hard liquor when I find out I didn't hit the Mega Millions jackpot.

You could eat closer to the bar to enjoy the music and people watching, or toward the back with the fire place. Service was great. Our waiter was helpful as we tried to figure out what to get, and we even had a chance to talk with the owners son. After going back and forth with the menu that is full of great options, I ordered the Bistec Encebollado, grilled veggies, rice and pigeon peas, and plantains. The steak was so big, I totally left with a second meal. My husband ordered peppered steak, mashed potatoes and grilled veggies, and that was also a large serving. Both meats were juicy, tender, and well seasoned. The mashed potatoes were freshly mashed and perfectly seasoned, as were the vegetables, and the plantains were nice and sweet. I will definitely be coming back. The vibe was nice, and the food was delicious!
