“After only eating Chick-Fil-A in D.C. and Virginia, I was overjoyed to find out Chick-Fil-A would be right in my hometown. Although when it opened, it was always crowded, and pretty much impossible to get "fast" food for the first 1-2 months, it has calmed down, and is pretty fast in terms of service. I went around 6pm, and there was a pretty large dinner rush line. However, the staff remained very calm and mature and dealt with the crowd smoothly and quickly. I got a Chick-Fil-A deluxe with buffalo sauce, and it was absolutely scrumptious! If you're ever craving chicken in the Troy-Rensselaer area, come on down and check out Chick-Fil-A! It's been worth the wait!Parking: Decent amount of spots to park, as the restaurant shares a parking lot with the adjacent Aldi.Kid-friendliness: Kids meals, cow mascot, games. Overall average kid-friendliness compared to other fast food restaurants.“
“Applebees has improved in the last 20 years. They have refocused and reworked their business plan. They are family friendly and the food is top notch. This location was slammed during my visit and the wait staff tried their best but needed more staff to earn 5 stars for service. However, this is a good place for a family meal or a date night. The decor is clean and well maintained. Stop in soon. You'll enjoy everything including their prices.“
“I don't normally eat lunch, but had missed breakfast and was in the vicinity at a few stores, and this fit the bill. I enjoyed a cheeseburger with fries, a coke and a chocolate shake. I ordered the regular fries, but the portion is quite generous. I didn't realize that I had ordered a double burger, but it was what I needed. The shake was fabulous. The bill was $24 and change, more than McDonald's for sure, but the portions are large, and the quality vastly superior. I don't eat out often, but Five Guys is worth the trip.“
“As an Albany resident, I take no pleasure in giving such a good review to a restaurant outside of Albany. But good pizza is good pizza. It is what it is.This establishment understands the art of the sauce ratio. So many times you have a pizza and they barely put any sauce. It is the blend of the sweetness of sauce and sharpness of the cheese that makes the pizza.I will have to give up another one of my subscriptions, because I have to work Cugino’s into my budget.I was told the owner also ran PJs pizza, which was in Albany. it is a very short drive over the bridge from where we live so this is my spot moving forward.“
