Dianne Watson Great atmosphere. We have done multiple showers and parties there! The service is top notch and definitely one of the best venues around for any event you are having!

Khalil Yusuf Grano in Schenectady is a hidden gem for anyone who appreciates fresh, high-quality Italian cuisine. From the moment I walked in, I was impressed by the warm, modern ambiance and the welcoming atmosphere. The staff were attentive and knowledgeable, offering excellent recommendations from the menu. The star of the show here is undeniably the fresh pasta. I tried their Pappardelle Bolognese, and it was outstanding—the pasta was perfectly al dente, and the sauce was rich and flavorful with just the right balance of ingredients. Every bite tasted homemade and authentic, a true reflection of Italian cooking at its finest. The appetizers are also a highlight. I had the burrata, which was creamy, fresh, and paired with a flavorful olive oil and crusty bread that was impossible to resist. The fried calamari was perfectly crisp and tender, served with a tangy marinara that made it even better. For dessert, I couldn’t pass up the Tiramisu, and it didn’t disappoint. Light, airy, and just sweet enough, it was the perfect way to end the meal. Grano is a must-visit if you’re in the Schenectady area and looking for authentic Italian dishes made with care and fresh ingredients. I will definitely be back!

Mathias Straight The food was just as good as I thought it would be! The seasoning on the fries was perfect, and the burgers were to die for! I will definitely eat this again.

Dana Sullivan Neat little place with a gluten-free store and coffee shop. Aptly, the whole place has a rustic feel, and the coffee shop area even has a fireplace with armchairs. The market has locally made crafts like jewelry, candles, and jam, a small selection of fresh produce and meat, gluten-free pantry items (not a huge selection, but more interesting options for pasta and cereals than you can find in a mid-sized grocery store), spices/tea in bulk, and locally roasted coffee beans. For the size of the store, they really have a good variety and strike a good balance of basic groceries vs gourmet items. The coffee shop has the standard coffee and tea drinks with some seasonal specialty drinks plus a moderate assortment of baked goods. I tried the blueberry muffin, lemon lavender scone, and a matcha latte from the coffee shop. The baked goods were great. Both had great texture (none of the dryness that cheap GF baked goods often suffer from) and nice flavours. The scone was closer to the dessert side of the baked good spectrum (sweet and almost a shortbread cookie texture), but the muffin was less sweet and wholesome-tasting. My matcha latte was pretty good, easily the best matcha Ive had in the Binghamton area. I was with my mom, who got a black tea, and while I didnt actually have any of her tea, I know and like the tea company that they use. The vibe was friendly and welcoming. Id like to come back here next time Im in the area!

Jeff Conine I cannot have MSG I get a severe asthma attack like instantly, but not at this place. All you have to do is ask for white sauce. It’s the same thing without MSG and it’s wonderful. I had the shrimp and broccoli delicious and they’re very accommodating and very nice.

S Jobin Sat at the bar in the relaxed but classy atmosphere. The staff was pleasant and attentive. The waitress didn’t like the look of my shrimp and sent them back before even showing them to me, which was super considerate! Fried shrimp were perfectly crispy tempura, not heavy breading. The pork pot stickers were very flavorful.
