Karen Sabrina Great restaurant! They have it all: great food, good tables, good atmosphere, good decor, nice views, great service! We had a brisket and bacon sandwich, BBQ chicken, fries, fries with gravy (excellent gravy), mac & cheese, and corn bread. Good portion sizes, too. Loved it. We walked from the Best Western hotel across the street. (photo note: the chicken breast is on a side plate bc it came out of the smoker after the other pieces on the plate. The meal came with 2 legs, 2 thighs, and 1 breast, plus 2 sides.)

Rafaella Diershaw Perfect diner experience. My cousin had waffles with bacon and an egg while I had a corn beef reuben with a side of slaw (NO judging my breakfast choice). Total yum. Service was awesome and atmosphere was pleasant and not terribly noisy. Will definitely return.

Stacey Price Amazing menu selection! Catered to my allergies, the way browns is setup the waitstaff can focus on your family and food is provided by bussers in uniform who also are happy to help you if something is missing - excellent service by Vito!! They’re polite and check in! They had a party of 20 when we were there for dinner and not one minute did we wait for anything! Well done flawless delivery! Our waitress was so sweet and brought sauces out for my family to test so I didn’t get exposed to allergies which, did in fact save me from an attack. Above and beyond staff care for their clients!! It’s not just a restaurant it’s a whole family fun dinner vibe. I’ve been here before alone sat at the bar for dinner and food also identical service! More restaurants should be this way. Try their home made root beer my daughter loved it. We got steak and a burger. So much food for being home.

Cameron Rodgers My son and I stopped by for lunch, and our food was incredible. Our server was also really nice. I got a chicken Asian style chopped salad, and my son got the double smash burger with onion rings. Well definitely come back!

Julia Fiet This was the best meal weve had in so long. Everything was screaming hot and so fresh. Not greasy at all and the chicken had a light breading while being perfectly crispy on the outside and so tender and light inside. The dumplings we got as an appetizer were the perfect combination of fluffy and soft outside with an awesome crisp on one side. The meat was so tender and flavorful. I would give this place 100 stars if I could. The portions were so generous and filling with totally reasonable prices. We got an order of dumplings (5), two chicken combination dinners (which came with a big bowl of amazing soup), and hot tea and it was only $47! (And I have enough left over for lunch tomorrow) We will definitely be coming back in the near future and recommend this place to everyone!!

Rena R First time back here after many years, and love it as much now as I did before. My daughter enjoyed the caramel apple crepe and pot of French pressed coffee, and I had the Asian chicken salad and strawberry matcha drink. Food presentation was perfect, and we really liked our cozy table by the front window. Surprisingly, it didn’t feel too crowded at lunchtime, but there were many takeout orders while we were there. Planning my next visit - there’s so much on the menu that I’d like to try, especially the purple papayaberry lime tea (sold out)!

Alexandra Golden Food was great! Excellent breakfast. Cannot recommend the cinnamon rolls enough. If you come here I strongly recommend to get the specials. The regular breakfast feels on par with other local places but at a higher price. The specials and local sourcing really make this place stand out. We got 2 breakfasts, coffee and a cinnamon roll and the total bill with tip came out to $50. Our service could have been more attentive at the bar but we were not in a rush. They had Christmas movies playing and it made the place very cozy. Definitely recommend!

Mary Steinacker-Grimm This was a great restaurant to try new foods that I have never knew existed. It’s perfect for after you have dental surgery as most of the foods are super soft and already ground up for easy consumption. I did not try the pizza and the bread was a little difficult to chew with my temporary partial, but all the other items were delicious.

Kaleb Devier The dining room in the front has 3 tables available. Call ahead for reservations. When we visited, it was too cold to sit outside, so I didn’t even see the courtyard seating. The meatballs were the best I have ever had. The pizza was fantastic! We tried the meat lovers and cheese pizzas. The chicken parm was also good, but I wouldn’t order it over the pizza. The Hangover cake is a little pricy, but delicious. Definitely worth a visit!

Scott Vining The Tipsy Moose Tap & Tavern delivered a great experience on a busy Sunday night during football. Even with the bar packed, the two girls working behind it provided fantastic service—attentive, friendly, and quick, despite the crowd. The food was good, well-prepared, and came out in a reasonable time considering how busy it was. The drinks were great as always, crafted well and consistently solid. Overall, a lively atmosphere paired with strong service made for an enjoyable visit that even my 83 year old mother enjoyed.

Mark Love this place. My grandma used to take me there when I was a kid. Ive moved farther away now but I still go back every chance I get. I drive no matter how long it takes to get them. Little hot dogs and rice pudding when I talk about parking it can be very challenging to find parking. I went down to Albany and stopped by Troy to get the hot dogs on a Friday and I wasnt able to find parking went back a week later. I finally found parking on Saturday. Got my hot dogs

Hartman Ken (iKen) Outstanding place!!! FOOD IS INCREDIBLE with so many amazing options on your gourmet sliders. Drinks were great. Excellent beer menu. Excellent bartender this past Saturday. We had four people with our party. They have vegan/vegetarian options!!! This is a MUST GO TO PLACE. Enjoy -you will love it.
