    Chicken parm with vodka sauce choice
    Kourtney N.

    Friday night date night this week. Called to make a reservation in the afternoon for 6pm and had the choice or inside, outside or the bar area. At the time it was perfect temperature out so I opted for outdoors. Showed up around 6pm parking lot was getting busy. Walked into plenty of seating inside and out. There was a sign that there was going to be music outdoors. So we ended up just sitting at the bar. Service was great our bartender was attentive and helpful. We modified a couple of the menu items and had questions about how dishes were prepared and he was able to get us our answers. We got a couple drinks, apps, dinners and a to go. Ordered the: caprese salad, bacon wrapped asparagus, Chicken parm with vodka sauce with choice of pasta (not technically on the menu) and a twin lobster fra diablo over pasta (technically not on the menu). Pepperoni Pizza to go. Dinners came with a house salad choice of dressing. Everything was tasty, the chicken parm cutlet was very thin and scrumptious vodka sauce. Will definitely be ordering that again. Only criticism would be the portion size of the chicken to pasta ratio was off, I would have liked a little more pasta. The bacon wrapped asparagus was delicious every piece tasted like bacon and even if it didn't have a piece on it. Previously the palazzo burgers have been ordered to go and they are spot on everytime. Only complaint well not even complaint but a suggestion would be that they don't give enough steak fries with the burgers, we always have to order a separate order. It did get a little loud in the place and the tables filed up around us. The outdoor area is nice though with umbrellas, couches and fire pits. Awesome new neighborhood restaurant with that family friendly feel. Will be back to try more dishes!

    Chicken special

    Didn't even realize it was restaurant week and did not have a reservation. Greeted right away, super friendly staff. We got a table in the lounge. Our server Alyssa was very nice. Took great care of us. We had cocktails , app and entrees. Too full for dessert. The arancini was really good, salads came with entrees which is nice. Veal sorrento with capellini and the chicken special (bone in chicken breast with mushroom glaze, truffle mashed potatoes and candied Brussels. ) everything was excellent. Looking forward to coming back especially to enjoy the outdoor patio and live music

    The Portobello appetizer is to die for

    Another great meal! I highly recommend the Portabella appetizer. That was amazing! I had a Caesar salad and the linguine with white clam sauce. It was so good. They even gave me a special treat for my birthday! I can't say this enough, come have a meal here and you will not be disappointed. Super friendly staff and great service. We went back the next day for lunch and had pizza. It is so good!!!

    The food was just okay when we went but the building was beautiful and it was a nice vibe- for me it would be more of a drink and appetizer spot

    it was good the people were nice and the waitress was hot and so was my pasta. win win for everybody.

    We came here for the first time after hearing they were doing a soft opening. We made a reservation since we weren't sure how crowded it was going to be. OMG, the food is soooooo good!! We got calamari and mozzarella sticks for appetizers, YUM. The food took some time to come out but it was definitely worth it, plus they just opened, we gave them credit for trying their hardest to get food out. Our waiter was so nice and attentive, checked on us as much as he could, and he was really funny too! The place is really nice inside, Italian themed but not super formal. Will definitely eat here again!!

    We've been on a search for a good pizza place after our local one closed. Poppy's gets a lot of…read morepositive reviews from the community, but I can't see why. The pizza is akin to the type of pizza you'd get from a birthday. You can tell when a pizza place uses fresh, high quality ingredients, and Poppies just doesn't. The dough is clearly pressed and the pizza (and wings) are just poor quality. The service was good enough and the overall cleanliness of the place appeared good. However, I can not recommend as a good place to go for a quality slice.

They offer online ordering, but it is slightly more with the service fee than ordering in person or over the phone. This location has been the home to All In The Family Pizza (moved), Roman's Pizzeria & Deli, and Tasty Pizzeria. I stopped by Poppy's Pizzeria for a quick bite. The place was quite busy with the phone ringing. To make things quick, I got the 2 Pizza Slices with Topping & 20 oz drink for $8 plus tax. I chose a slice of pepperoni and a slice of sausage which were heated up in the oven. There is not much seating inside, but there is ample picnic table seating outside shared with Poppy's Ice Cream. The hot pizza slices were pretty good, which had a thin firm soft and chewy crust topped with the right amount of tomato sauce, meat toppings and melted cheese. I will have to try their calzone on the next visit.

First off, presentation and crust game? Solid. You're getting a good bake, decent structure, and slices that hold their own. Not floppy, not overly stiff right in that respectable middle lane. That's a win. Now let's talk about the sauce... because this is where things get mixed. Taking a look at some of the chatter on Yelp, there's a noticeable trend and I've got to agree. The sauce is inconsistent. Some bites hit with a nice tang and balance, but others feel either a little too sweet or lacking depth. It doesn't always punch through the cheese like you want it to. For a place trying to compete in the pizza game, sauce consistency is everything--and right now, it's just not elite. Cheese and toppings are good--not mind-blowing, but definitely respectable. No complaints there. Quality is there, just not standout.

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.

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.
