About the restaurant

Our Sicilian Steakhouse is an original concept that celebrates the Sicilian-immigrant culinary experience. Referred to as the "original fusion cuisine," Sicilian food is a historical mosaic influenced by the various conquering nations. Traces of Greece, North Africa, Rome, the Middle East, Germanic nations, France, Spain, and Italy are evident in traditional Sicilian cuisine. At Giancarlo's, our love of history-rich Sicilian cuisine is combined with our interpretation of both the great American Steakhouse and the Neapolitan Pizzeria.

One of our favorite places to go. Took an out of town friend for dinner. The oysters were so fresh and delicious. The steak skewers are a must for an appetizer, tender steak in a rich sauce. We shared 2 pizzas, both delicious. The service was outstanding! A very enjoyable experience!

We’ve been to Ruth’s Chris in other locations and Albany’s food was certainly up to standard! What made it even better was the service. From the person who took our coats to the exemplary waiter, Leon, to the Brazilian manager who made time to chat with us about Brazil, the service was beyond superb. A truly perfect evening!

Nolan’s is consistently good and the holiday decor was very nice. Our server, Lauren, was also good. However, I wish servers would make the price of “specials” known as it’s awkward to ask. Part of our order was 1 coconut shrimp “special” app ($21) and one main “special” ($42). I probably would have skipped the app and ordered another main had I known.

It wasn’t the food which was fantastic or the service which was also great. It was the experience that topped it all. The whole evening is going to be a great memory. This place is good. Very good.

We had a wonderful experience at Rick’s last night. The bartender (I don’t recall his name), made incredible drinks. Not only were they delicious but they were also very presentable. I was very impressed. Then we went upstairs for dinner and had Shawn as our waiter. He was a wonderful waiter, extremely friendly and just an overall wonderful person. Also, the food was incredible! We do think it was a little pricey, but we did enjoy everything we had nonetheless.

I had shrimp cocktail which is always great; a wonderful flavor/taste with the sauce, spiced perfectly. I had the fillet which was cooked to perfection and just melted in my mouth. Also had the clams in a white wine sauce with pasta which was absolutely delicious. I have had it many times previously and it is always top notch and super tasty. I normally get a nice dark beer though; I have been getting a delicious cup of black coffee the past few times. This coffee is probably the best black coffee that I have ever tasted. It is really great. My hostess. Rosemary, is simply remarkable. She is so very polite, courteous, friendly and professional at all times. Her supervisor/boss is also a wonderful person who is also so very courteous/polite and professional in every way. I totally enjoy coming to this steak house. Everything and everyone are simply great and really make me totally enjoy myself. I shall be back shortly.
