Restaurants near Rensselaer Lake

This was a last minute reservation after our daughter arrived home late at the airport for Christmas...we had such a fabulous time at Delmonicos... from the warm and friendly reception from the greeters/hosts, to the relaxed yet very professional ambience, to the amazing food ( wedge salad, steaks, etc). But the real star was our server Carla who guided us through the menu initially with recommendations and took care of us during our entire visit with such kindness and courtesy. In spite of the late hour, we never felt rushed and were able to enjoy a wonderful reunion with our daughter. Great way to welcome the Christmas season! THANK YOU!

The food and service at Athos are always outstanding! Our server, Efe, was very professional, competent, friendly, and helpful. I have dined here many times; it was a first visit for my guest. She loved it! Definitely at the top of our return visit list! 

A very relaxing pleasant evening! Every person on the waitstaff that came to our table was polite and knowledgeable about the menu selections. A great place to celebrate a birthday!

We visited for a late lunch. We both had the salad special of the day and added seared salmon. It was delicious. The salmon was cooked perfectly. Andrea, our waitress was wonderful - the perfect combination of professional and friendly. Josie’s Table is a great go-to spot for a nice meal!

We had a good time with a party of 4. We made a reservation and were seated promptly. The chips, salsa and guacamole was very good, our entrees were all quite tasty and had good portion sizes (we all boxed up leftovers). The cocktails were very good and the service was polite and professional. The ambiance was a little modern and not typical for a Mexican restaurant and the noise level (on a busy Saturday night) wasn’t conducive to a lot of conversation.
