    Disappointed with the service. Server did not keep up with drinks or water. We were given the final bill before we were asked about desert.

    Always incredible food. Place was very crowded for a Saturday night. We had a reservation for four people at 7 PM and ran into some friends of ours, staff was able to accommodate us and create a table for six even though the restaurant was completely packed. Super accommodating and will absolutely be back.

    The hostess, waitress, and the assistant waiter were wonderful and the food was outstanding. Our fillets were cooked perfectly. We were seated at a quiet corner table in a room near the back of the restaurant which was the icing on the cake!! Our new favorite restaurant!

    I took my partner to dinner for his birthday, and we had a wonderful evening. The food was excellent, and Maddison was a wonderful server—very attentive and kind. I would highly recommend this restaurant for a special occasion or date night! My partner was very impressed. He said it was his best restaurant experience in Albany, which is high praise from someone from NYC who has been to many exceptional restaurants.
