And it came with a piece of cornbread. They were all very good. They also have a pretty extensive selection of beverages. Also, each table has 6 different bbq sauces. I tried all of them and narrowed down my favorites to 2. There's a lot of military-type memorabilia on display. And country music playing in the background, but not too loud. Fairly comfortable. Oh, and the ladies bathroom was spacious and very clean. I recommend this place if you're in the mood for tasty food.

FINALLY A RESPECTABLE BBQ PLACE IN ALBANY NY!…read more I did not try the BBQ, but it looks good. I heard the burger was fantastic. Was more than that. It was magical. Smoked beef burger! Perfect. There is no other burger in the area that matches this. Plus fresh cut fries and big ice tea. Country music playing, and decor was so pleasant I thought for a second I was back in Texas. Service is order when you enter. Everyone was so pleasant when ordering and picking up food. Will be back. Thank you Mission BBQ!

Come for the food, stay for the folks…read more Recently moved to Upstate NY and decided I should go on a chicken wing tour of the area. I mean, these people know wings. Running errands in this area and dropped in to try Memphis King's (1st time visit) I always get the same wings (hot buffalo) at each restaurant/bar to keep things fair. Memphis King's wings are smoked, then fried. I've found that you lose a lot of smoke flavor when they're fried to order but these had just the right amount still present. Very tasty. And crispy! (a lot of smoked wings are grilled but, while delicious, it doesn't render enough of the skin to make them crispy and I like crisp!) I've sampled wings from about 30 places (so far) and I would whole heartedly put Memphis King's in my top 10 for sure. Looking forward to trying their other items because their burnt ends look great. As does the house made pastrami *droooool* As for the people, the gal in front of house was wonderful. And the chef (not sure if he was the owner or not) was so nice. Kept checking in on me to see how everything was and kept offering me suggestions and samples. Not pushy, just smart business because I'm 100% gonna go back.

They were very large sandwiches, but herd was mire like pot roast that brisket. And the pork was lacking in flavor. The sweet sauce was thin snd mire like a tomato sauce.

I'd say it was at least 20 minutes. I wasn't the only customer that day who had some sort of incident with payment, beeper hand off, and pick up. Apparently, there was some confusion on the beeper and order assignments. They weren't correct and the situation impacted several customers. I saw one person come up only to be told the beeper wasn't assigned properly. I came in from sitting outside, after a 20 minute wait, only to see my order had been placed in a warming oven. No beeper. Maybe more training needed. I've worked at restaurants in the past and I know it what it's like to be "in the weeds". It's oftentimes a thankless and stressful job. They might need more than two employees (cook and cashier) during a shift. 2 cents.

I ordered ribs this time (@ 5:45p,) and I was told they weren't ready yet,) so I ordered the brisket. The beans i ordered were served hot. The brisket wasn't. I was pressed for time and didn't send my food back to the kitchen. The staff was friendly, and companion's pulled pork sandwich was tasty - served on a large bun. The business exterior was in need of groundskeeping. As much as I love to support local businesses, it's Dinosaur BBQ in Troy from now on.

The only dedicated Korean fried chicken restaurant in the area. Many flavors to choose from and I've tried about half, but my favorites are still the Golden Original and Secret Sauce. The Gold Original has a crunch, taste, and breading texture that are different from the rest. Secret Sauce is sweet and tangy and saucy. Haven't actually dined in at this location, but it's decently spacious inside. Wait is about 20min once you order.

Oh man, we are so glad we did. My fried chicken sandwich was hearty and delicious. There was a generous amount of fries that managed to hold their crisp and still be tasty (difficult with delivery).

I decided to give Signal 30 a try after hearing many great things about it…read more Taking this account, I ordered ribs and brisket with fried pickles and the results were satisfying. To explain, the ribs were excellent. They were tender, flavorful, and had a ton of meat on the bones. In similar fashion, the brisket was pretty tasty. To breakdown, the brisket had nice flavor with a good amount of fat around the edges. However, the middle of the brisket was a bit overcooked. It was still enjoyable though. After that, I tried the fried pickles which were delicious. The pickles were crispy with a savory and salty taste. These were simply great fried pickles. As a final point, Signal 30 is a really good BBQ restaurant and I highly recommend the ribs and fried pickles.

(That's not a bad thing) Ya Yas is conveniently located in downtown Schenectady near State street on an unassuming corner you would pass easily if not paying attention. No worries, though there's plenty of parking and even a parking garage next door. I went on a slow Thursday night and was met with the owner who I assume was Ya Ya herself. She immediately greeted me with the house specials along with the homemade sides. I ordered the 1/2 chicken breast, collard greens, yams and corn bread the perfect southern food combo. I'd never tried collard greens but they were tasty and felt like a cross between spinach and Brussels sprouts. The bill was reasonable at $18 with plenty of food so you definitely won't go home hungry when leaving Ya Yas. If you're in the mood for some southern hospitality in Upstate NY, give this place a try I will definitely be back.
