No matter where I have lived, Albany, Troy, Watervliet, and Altamont, I always get my pizza from Jimmy's. Well worth the drive, it is that good!

The south end tavern is a historical site with the original ladies enterance sign still hanging outside of the dining area. It is a local favorite with great food. Have been told that the corn beef is corned on site and that is what makes it so good. It was also named best fries in the area from what I can remember a while back. It has a kids menu as well as great varierty of choices. The prices haven't been changed in ages so you can stillget a cheap meal. My favorite part is that the kitchen is behind the bar so you can watch your food being cooked so there is no funny business. Drinks are also really cheap. I would reccomend it to anyone that asked.
Pros: Great food cheap prices
Cons: Poor Lighting

I went in to get insurance, jacket, pants, helmet, gloves and more after purchasing an 18k bike and was treated with the utmost disrespect from one of the owners! I stood around waiting for help and when I asked for help from someone sitting in an office I was scolded like a child and TOLD TO go back out to the counter and wait until someone could assist me...I was the only customer in the place and will definitely not return for a snowmobile purchase this winter. The owners are known to be rude and feel they have a captured market in Troy NY...what a waste of a business. Please consider doing business elsewhere...These guys need a wake up call!!

The Fudge Fancies are absolutely heavenly! In fact - I don't think I've had anything from their bakery that is not melt-in-your-mouth delicious! They made my wedding cake and were very easy to work with (even though I was a stressed-out, cranky bride-to-be!). Everyone loved the cake and it looked stunning!

Great food, large portions, reasonably priced. Both a bar area as well as a seperate dining area making it nice thaht the family is not exposed to the bar atmosphere. Only con was the lack of parking.
Pros: great value
Cons: not much parking

The outside of Ted's Fish Fry looks pretty ordinary, as does the order counter that I first walk up to to order my food. The place looks straight out of the 70s, as the cashier yells our order back to the cooks. We wait for a few minutes until our tray is delivered, and Boy, is it worth every second.
A typical orange tray holds our our three items: "Fish Fry w/ Chilis", "Chessburger w/ Everything", and "Regular Fries". I am surprised at the careful placement of each item on the tray. The three items are placed evenly in thirds, across the horizontal position of the tray. A thought crosses my mind concerning the simple aesthetic of these items, the absence of cartoon characters or graphic advertisement on the tray.
We sit down at our table. I look down at the 15" Fish Fry loaded with "Chilis" (That's what the cashier yelled out) and the order of fries w/ ketchup already poured at the top, with a simple fork jetting from the top. My fiance grew up in Lansingburgh, the first bite of her Cheeseburger w/ Everything excites her. "Everything" means Onions, Pickles, Ketchup, and Mustard at this place. The Onions are carmelized extremely well. I took a bite of that burger and want to go back and order one for myself. I am a bit surprised "Chilis" means Cocktail Sauce here and a tad disappointed my Fish Fry doesn't have an extra kick to it. Overall, the Fish Fry that was presented to me has amazing texture and taste.
The place was virtually empty, only three other customers on a Sunday around 4:00pm. Ted's Fish Fry is worth a visit if you enjoy old school American fast food. A huge step up from the Burger King down the street. Fish Fry is iconic around the Capital Region. I'd say Ted's over on Second Ave. is so far my best experience with Fish Fry. The Burgers remind me of the ones Popeye's friend Wimpy used to eat. When you get to the counter, say "I'd gladly pay you next Tuesday for a hamburger today".

Carol's Place for Pizza has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. My sister even worked for Carol. In all of the years my family has been ordering Carol's pizza, it has never disappointed us. Every pie is as awesome as the first, with other pizza places you get a different tasting pizza every time you order, not Carol's! Not to mention that we can feed a family of 7 for well under twenty dollars.
I would highly recommend Carol's Place for Pizza to anyone looking for great tasting pizza at a great price.
Pros: Price, taste, quality

I have been getting my hair done at Ando's for over 15 years now. I have never had a bad hair experience. My colors always come out natural looking. My hair looks and feels great everytime I leave. I have also had a great experience having my eyebrows waxed here.
