"We came to Peninsula Grill for my wife and her Mom’s birthday. (both on the same day) The hostess was sweet and greeted us and asked “whose birthday it was?” And was so excited when we told her we had two birthdays! She typed it into the computer, and we were seated, and received drinks. We then waited around 40 minutes for bread. We were surprised to see multiple couples and groups who arrived after us receiving their entrees, and ended up waiting around an hour and 30 minutes for ours. We were not checked on by our waiter, and received dinner without an opportunity to order additional drinks AND we had waters empty. At this point, we were a little frustrated. The food was great, but our service was next to nothing and our waiter was surprised when we didn’t want to order any dessert, having been sitting there for near on 2 hours at this point. The phrase that we kept feeling was that we were not prioritized, even with two birthdays seated at the table. We were surprised at the low level of service we received as we’ve heard great things, but unfortunately we will not be recommending or coming back to Peninsula Grill ever again."

"It was very easy to make a reservation and I was impressed with that. We arrived at the restaurant and we waited for about eight minutes for someone to even acknowledge us. When someone did, I was approached as pointed finger ant me and asked , carry out? I said no. Table for two, reservation. The guy then said she’ll be right with you. we were seated in a very small table in the corner and I asked to be moved and she took us to a small table in the bar which I asked again to be in a little bit bigger table and she allowed us to sit there. we ordered our drink. It was fair , then we ordered our food and we waited almost an hour to get our food. When it arrived, the chicken Parmesan the Chicken was burnt. My crabcake was very dark. I wouldn’t say burnt but almost there the garlic in the spinach and I believe carrots was horrible. It just reeked of garlic. Our waitress did not come back and check on us until I asked her for a water. Before we got our food, she walked by me three times and made eye contact and never gave me an answer as to where our food was. I was very disappointed that it was not that busy. the dining room was full, but the bar area had very few people in it maybe six at the bar and maybe a total of 10 sitting around the bar. This was our first experience here and I can tell you we probably won’t be back. I had to go to the hostess station and ask for a carry out box."

"4 of us dined at Brown Dog on a Saturday evening. I had specifically asked if we could dine outdoors. There were many outdoor tables available. The host told me “possibly” when I asked about dining outside, but then we were seated indoors without any explanation. Here it was a beautiful evening be they stuck us in a dimly lit corner. Which would have been fine if it was the only table available but that didn’t appear to be the case. We weren’t too far from the kitchen and it was very loud. It sounded like trays of dishes were being dropped off every couple of minutes. The food was good, but not something we can’t wait to eat again."

"Service was friendly. Appreciated it being dog friendly. Outdoor patio was huge and nice for a fall evening dinner. Really enjoyed uplifting music from Brother Dan. Food was hit and miss. Some dishes were wonderful like the mushroom ravioli and pork belly. Portion sizes great. Bison medallions cooked perfectly however sauce with dish needed more flavor. Overall really nice ambience and enjoyable date night experience."

"This is an excellent breakfast spot! I had a fantastic meal here; the food was hot and fresh. I ordered the classic breakfast, which included eggs, ham, and a generous portion of French toast. The French toast was massive, and my eggs were cooked to perfection—I ordered them over medium. The service was friendly, and our food arrived quickly despite the restaurant being busy. The coffee was also impressive—strong and flavorful. Everyone in my group enjoyed their breakfast, and I would definitely recommend this place. The prices were somewhat high, ranging from $15 to $20 for most meals."

"The space heaters were perfect to keep us warm as the temp outside dropped. Still felt like we were outside even with plastic wall panels. Nice view of the boats and water until dark. High top tables have a small surface area and with gigantic menus passed out, we easily knocked over a drink right away. Hightop tables are tight for Good food and great service. Would go again"

"We went to STK last night to celebrate my partner’s promotion at work. I can’t describe how special our experience was! We made a reservation for 6:30, but wanted to hang out at the bar and have a few drinks for happy hour first. The bar staff was very friendly, and we enjoyed our appetizers! The ambiance and decor at the restaurant definitely adds to the experience it’s a unique and fun vibe for sure! We were seated right on time, and were taken care of by John and Grace. They were both phenomenal they answered our questions about the menu and preparation/cuts of steak, and they were positive and energetic. Our drinks were kept full and our meals were amazing! I talked to the GM, Shawn, about why we were celebrating, and he offered to send a surprise to the table at the end of the night. My partner was thrilled when it arrived! It was a huge sparkler along with a few drinks perfect end to the evening, and Shawn, John, and Grace all made sure to congratulate him on his promotion and shake his hand. The evening was truly special, and we are SO glad we went there to celebrate! Highly, highly recommend STK Denver, and we will definitely be back! Thank you all!"

"I’ve been eating at Original Joes for more years then I would like to admit and never had an issue, except for my last visit. My friend and I decided to each order the Eggs Benedict. When the dish’s arrived all we could see were overcooked somewhat burnt potato’s which seemed to have been reintroduced to the grill a few times to warm up. The English muffin was as delicate as a hockey puck, and should have used a steak knife to cut into it. Then there was an “essence” of Béarnaise sauce enough to give the plate the identity of eggs benedict. I will return but not for brunch, at least not for the eggs Benedict. Our server was super great!!"

"We were able to sit outside last night for a lovely meal with Jeff as our wait staff person. He’s always very kind and efficient with a good sense of humor. He’s helped us a few times before and service is always impeccable. The chicken wings and ahi tuna appetizers were delicious along with our blackened salmon entrées and the spicy prawns. The restaurant noise levels can be very loud at times especially when there are large parties so being able to dine outside with lovely friends and weather was a treat. And the inside noise level has never stopped us from returning to one of our go-to restaurants in Albany. As always, a delightful experience!"

"First and most importantly the food was delicious. However our service was terrible. We were treated as if we did not belong. Took over an hour for food to come out and we were not checked on. Even once the food was brought we were not asked how was the food or anything. The customer service made my first visit be my last visit."

"This restaurant is a real treasure in the Islands region. Located in an historic stone mansion that once was run as a nunnery, it offers commanding views of the St Lawrence River and a lovely terrace for dining as well when weather permits. We highly recommend you put this on your to do list if visiting the area...it’s a bit pricey but the food and ambience are worth it."

"First time going to this restaurant for brunch. The place itself is nice, décor is nice. We went on a weekend during brunch, so it was not that busy so the vibe was very relaxed and calm- obviously would be different during dinner time. The hostess was very nice, and the staff are all polite. Servers could speak up a little louder, it was hard to understand at times. The mac and cheese was delicious, and my partner liked his lobster and said the steak was cooked perfectly. We did have a hair in the butter sauce which was replaced right away- an offer for a dessert or something would have been appreciated considering the price we paid. The little burgers were not all that, had better else where. The bathroom area is super dark, and only one stall for the ladies bathroom- which is not a problem for a slow brunch day, but I could imagine on a busy dinner night how annoying that would be. We had bottomless mimosas for 30 bucks which is a reasonable price for brunch. The manager at the end of our meal came to our table to touch base which was nice and appreciated. Overall, it was a good experience to try but nothing to bring me back so far."

"I was so very pleased with the lunch that I had at Joe Senser's. The service was great- very efficient and friendly. Food was outstanding. Enjoyed the Walleye Poor Boy sandwich. My date had the chicken sandwich and she was very pleased . Margaritas were very good. The entire process went so well that she agreed to go out with me on a second date. Again, completely satisfied."

"I met an old friend at this place to catch a hockey game. The service was outstanding, and the food was decent. I had chicken wings, which I'd rate a 6 out of 10, and shrimp tacos that were absolutely fantastic, earning a solid 9 out of 10. My friend ordered half a chicken and said it was flavorful but a little dry. They also have a good variety of drinks and beers. It’s a bit pricey for what you get, but I’d definitely return for the excellent service and those incredible tacos!"

"After giving us only the options of 7:15 or 7:45, not 7:30 as we wanted. When we arrived for our 7:15 reservation they kept us waiting half an hour. Although they were apologetic, they did not offer us a free after dinner coffee or any other sort of tangible apology. That kind of service does not encourage a return visit. The rest of the service was good, other than the waiter trying to suggest the Dom Perignon Champagne for $350 (he didn't tell us the price)."

"I recently dined at Polcaris’s the restaurant came highly recommended. While the ambiance was charming and the service attentive, I was disappointed with the shrimp pasta special. The dish arrived looking appetizing, with a generous portion of shrimp atop a bed of perfectly al dente pasta. However, upon taking my first bite, it was clear that the shrimp had been overcooked. They were tough and lacked the succulent, tender texture that makes shrimp such a delight in Italian cuisine. This unfortunately overshadowed the otherwise well-prepared components of the dish. The sauce was flavorful, and the pasta was cooked to perfection, but the overcooked shrimp left much to be desired. Given the price point and the restaurant's reputation, I had expected better execution on such a staple dish. Despite this setback, the rest of the meal was enjoyable. The appetizers and dessert were excellent, and the wine selection was impressive. I hope they are able to addresses this issue, as it has the potential to be an outstanding dining experience with a few adjustments. Other than that, the pizza is good!"

"I decided to take a break on Asian food for a week and tried Italian food, N O R E G R E T S! ?Upon arrival, I had one party ahead of me and was seated after 15 minutes (the place was pretty packed). Waiter was nice and patient in explaining the menu as this was my first time coming to any Olive Garden branch (I didn 't know they are a multichain restaurant prior to my visit here).Anyhow, when I started ordering, the first thing I noticed about this place is that all of their soup dishes ? and salads ? are free refills! I immediately thought, "Wow! I mean I have heard of free water/tea refills but soup dishes and salad? Impressive! ??We ordered: Shrimp Scampi First time hearing Angel hair, so wanted to see if the name is only half the story and I was impressed with the texture. The Shrimp were fresh, tender and most of all seafood smell was not present. The sauce on this dish was a tad bit sour/ salty (maybe that 's how scampis are? Weird combination, but I thoroughly enjoyed it nonetheless)! 6oz Sirloin The dish I was most looking forward to! I got my steak cooked to medium well. The meat seasoning felt just right. Texture was tender and juicy. The pasta that came along with it was creamy but it was alright (probably because the steak was too good).I would recommend this place if you want to try an Italian/American fine dining experience! ?"

"The food at this restaurant is consistently delicious. We always find the prices to be reasonable. The restaurant was bustling with customers and the service was excellent. Our server, who currently commutes 1 hour to work, did a fantastic job. We ordered Chicken Parmesan and Shrimp Scampi and enjoyed every bite. We will definitely be returning in the future."

"Met up with some friends to catch up and to enjoy a great meal. The waitress was very attentive! We ordered a cheese burger, the shrimp kabobs and I had French Dip, (Freedom Dip). Before ordering, my friend inquired in the French Dip is good. The waitress said that it is a crowd favorite and very rare. Sounded good, so I ordered it. It came out very well done and chewy. I sent it back and ordered a burger. My friends loved their food, especially the kabobs. On a side note, they go rid of the benches and replaced them with regular tables, so no more sitting with strangers! We will definetly be back, but I will choose something else from their menu."
