Best Restaurants with a Notable Wine List in Schenectady

The service and the food was fantastic. The tables are packed together very tightly: less than a foot between them when seated and close enough that you could eat off of your neighbor’s plate. This didn’t make for a comfortable experience and staff was constantly bumping into guests, as much as they were trying not to. Probably violates codes too.

The food is so fresh and cooked to perfection. The service is incredible. I love this place.

Never a bad experience here. For any occasion, this is the place to go. Friendly, experienced, and well presented staff; perfect atmosphere; and a great menu loaded with delicious and unique Italian food. Lastly, the crowd this restaurant attracts, because of the characteristics listed above, is great too (nobody in baseball caps and sweat pants). Favorite restaurant in town.

Very nice restaurant. You get a lot of food for the price. Will be back soon

Lunches are served Tuesdays and Thursdays at the culinary school t Schenectady Community College. Dinner is served Wednesdays. There are Regional USA menus in the Fall and International ones in the Spring. Today was Asian and it was one of the best experiences of the year. The appetizers were curry udon soup with chicken katsu or Pork belly buns. We both ordered the soup. It was spicy, but not too spicy with slices of crisp chicken cutlet. I wouldn't have thought of putting fried chicken in a soup, but it was delicious. There were three entrees, Beef Bulgogi, Garam Marsala scented red snapper and ginger scallion noodles. I ordered the bulgogi and it was the best I ever tasted. It was extremely tender with wonderful seasoning. It was accompanied by picked vegetables and white rice. My partner ordered the noodle dish which came with crispy fried tofu. He said it was very good. Desserts were stickr rice with mango, Japanese roll cake, Japanese cheese cake and matcha icecream with mocha cookies. We both ordered the cheesecake which was lighter than I am used to but very good. Highly recommend you try this restaurant if you are willing to try new things. We tried it around 12 times in the past year and were rarely disappointed.
