Best American Restaurants in Albany

We decided to take part of our family out to Thanksgiving dinner. The food was delicious. Since it was Thanksgiving, 1847 only had a specific set of food planned, but they allowed us to substitute one of the parts of the meal for a soup or salad that was also on the Meal list. It was a bit pricey, but everything was amazing, and the waitstaff were wonderful. It is a beautiful restaurant. We have been here before for other meals on other days, and have always enjoyed the ambiance, the waitstaff and the meal.

McKenzie was an amazingly good server! We hope to enjoy her service again and again! The turkey dinner was very tasty. If there was one negative, the turkey was a bit too salty, but that's a matter of preference. Otherwise, it all tasted wonderful and as two seniors with no local family, it suited our longing for a good Thanksgiving dinner, without the need to cook such a large undertaking for just the two of us! Note: We were still standing awaiting our table outside 35 minutes after our reservation. We would have waited longer if I hadn't noticed a table in the bar that was available, which they gladly accommodated us with. The staff is always excellent at Rudy's Steakhouse and the food predictably very good!

Wonderful Thanksgiving Day outing. Food excellent. We did not order the traditional thanksgiving dinner. We had the prime rib, salmon, shrimp and bacon risotto. We also ordered the breaded cauliflower and the roasted brussel sprouts as appetizers. Everything was delicious, the service wonderful. So thankful the workers gave up their holiday so that we could enjoy ours. Very grateful!

Just another great dining experience at Vault 244!! The drinks were awesome and the food was very good. My wife had the sea bass and I had the top sirloin. I will say that my steak was great, but the sweet potato and potato mash was under seasoned. Still, a wonderful anniversary dinner!!

We always enjoy del Alma and Hector does a great job of organizing the staff and creating a welcoming environment for our guests. Thank you for another great evening!
