Great local place but you don't have to be a regular to feel welcome. Food is very good and the staff is always friendly. We dine in and order take out from here regularly.

The burger was pretty good. Ordered without onions...and ended up getting onions AND peppers. Maybe I missed the peppers on the menu, but I don't think so. I don't hate onions. I was driving and didn't want farts. There, I said it. The truffle fries were pretty good but they could be a bit thicker. I did appreciate that they were crispy. Home cut are typically greasy. My wife got pasta with fish on it. Huge portion...good. she said the fish was fishy and the sauce was a bit too rich. The sauce, I suppose is a preference thing. I don't eat fish, but I understand fishy fish is not ideal. The server was very friendly and helpful. All in all, it was worth pulling off the thruway for dinner here. I'd bet it's cool in summer when the trains go by.

This was a phenomenal restaurant located in Schenectady a little out of the way but definitely a place to try when you have a chance to. The atmosphere and the food was incredible to say the least and the friendly wait staff added to that. Everything was cooked to order and did not disappoint. We ordered the lemon pepper boneless wings as an appetizer. You could taste the fresh lemon and grated pepper in the sauce it competes with the top wing spots in Schenectady. I ended up getting just a simple black and blue burger which was cooked to medium rare perfectly. My fiance got a steak sandwich which was sliced New York strip with a homemade cheese sauce served with homemade chips. You could really tell that they cared about the food that they were making in the kitchen. Since this review I have gone back twice and have recommended it a bunch of times to family and friends.

Was recommended to try this place again... It is not what it used to be... A more settled environment with a great cooking staff putting out delish food. Hostess was very pleasant and helpful. Definitely a place worth trying if you like great eats!
