List 14 Budget-Friendly Restaurants Near You in Schenectady, New York (Part 2)

Aliya F Tried Slice & Sizzle for the first time and wow — the wrap was soooo good and the pizza was loaded with flavor. Everything was fresh and cooked just right. My kids loved the fried chicken. You can tell they care about quality because they use organic meat Definitely my new favorite spot in Schenectady!

Jay Villeneuve An excellent meal with delicious cocktails. I normally dont order chicken when Im out so I can try stuff I wouldnt have at home, but the sides of parsnip puree and chorizo hash convinced me. And I am very glad I had it! Every part of the dish went together amazingly and the chicken wasnt something were making at home like that. Osso bucco was delicious and linguine and clams got two thumbs up.

Nathan Green After many years of driving by this low key place, I stopped in looking for late night food. Wow! I cannot recommend this place enough..I wish I could give it 6 stars! Food was delicious, my BBQ bacon burger cooked to perfection with crispy bacon and toasted bun. Literally the best burger Ive had in years. My wifes calzone was fresh, obviously homemade..great. Went back a 2nd time and my wife enjoyed to open face turkey. Everything Great and reasonably priced. Well be coming back often...

J D Great atmosphere and the service was amazing. The waitress was so helpful and nice. The coffee hazelnut cinnamon was to die for. The breakfast sandwich and hash browns were fantastic. Would definitely be going back and highly recommend.

Rita Exquisite food, service and ambience! This was our first time at a Persian restaurant but will not be the last. The Mirza Ghasemi appetizer was delicious. It tasted like it took hours to prepare, the smokiness from grilled eggplant was divine. Since we dont eat lamb we ordered the only 3 chicken entrees on the menu and all were delicious. The meat was the juiciest I have ever tasted, it cut like butter and fell off the bone. There are no vegetarian entrees but plenty of vegetarian appetizers to choose from. Based on other reviews, we ordered the pistachio cake and that was excellent as well, though I liked the carrot cake loaded with walnuts better. Highly recommend. A note of caution though, they have limited seating so if you are going there on a weekend, better to have a reservation.

Joseph Stacey Reservations recommended but they accommodated our group of 4. They have an outside area and a smaller inner seating area. The service was fast. We had our appetizer very quickly. Drinks and refills were also fast. Our meals took nearly 40 minutes but everyone enjoyed what they ordered. The pulled pork was highly rated as were the onion rings and the burger. The clam fry was good. The eggplant Parm looked fantastic but it was a bit on the soft side for my taste. Some of the specials and dessy sounded really good. I would definitely return and try some other options. Prices were reasonable for the portion sizes.

Jillian Fecteau 10/10 - I literally made my entire family (including two children under the age of two years old) go two consecutive nights in a row. LEGIT THAI FOOD! Quality is amazing. Everything we got was delicious, well spiced, and obviously Cooked from a scratch. Highly recommended. Also locally and family owned, don’t sleep on this hidden gem!!!

Karen Chadwick-Mello Our first visit to Schenectady brought us here! Really cute restaurant ! We loved everything about it! The street had a bookstore and some shops! Free parking on Saturday as far as we could tell. If the parking app says spot is unavailable it might mean no charges for that day.

Jamie W Cozy and intimate seating for a date night on some comfy couches. They use actual N/A Spirits in their deliciois mocktails, which was much appreciated as its hard to find Non Alcoholic drinks that arent just fancy juice. By boyfriend was able to enjoy some wonderful NA options here. Service was spot on and the Dubai Chocolate Cocktail was amazing. I also really appreciated that our server went out of her way to verify that my each of my boyfriends drinks were NA so as not to have a mixup

Brenda Mayette Stopped in for a bite before a Union Hockey game and enjoyed it all. Love the fairly recent changes in the dining room. Everyone in our party enjoyed their drink choices and entrees ranged from loaded grilled cheese to fried chicken and a burger. Big winner though was the "Thanksgiving Eggrolls" appetizer (I dont think thats the official name but sure should be!). Quality content & flavor!! If I need to offer any constructive input, Id say they need to be careful of how much dressing goes on the greens. My plate had a LOT of it. Yummy but... Service was solid and well definitely return to this gem along the Mohawk.

Jo “Sweetjo” My first time in Schenectady, such a great quaint town with tons of history. I was in town to meet with my daughter for dinner and they had the night market. I was with my pup chose this place for their and outdoor seating, they were very super friendly, the service is excellent and the food was delicious, definitely will be back.

Julian Perez Jerk chicken, stew chicken, rice and beans, cabbage, the plantains, the curry chicken it was alllll delicious. I haven’t had Caribbean cuisine in some years and they blow it out the water. I’m going back this week to get some oxtails cause they looked fantastic too. So friendly and generous. Love this place

BigWin17 The food there is very delicious and they offer large amounts for the price. While we waited for our food they brought out Bara to the table which was tasted just like home. All of the food was loaded with flavor. Absolutely love the new location and restaurant. Definitely worth trying again.

Nan Han Was craving some southern food today and stumbled upon this place from google search. I’m so glad I stopped by! The place was so welcoming. The owners greeted me with all smiles and homey feelings! I got the fried catfish, candied yams, collard greens, Mac salad, and corn bread. Everything was excellent! Got so much food and very much worth the price. I’m so happy I trusted the reviews on this one. Definitely coming back for more next time I’m in town!
