The eggplant was still warm, delicious and very cheesy, but somehow not very messy. The small sandwich (6 inch?) was generous in size so I shared it with my husband. The staff is always friendly and efficient. The business looks clean from the display cases to the well stocked shelves. Not a fancy place but welcoming.

I ordered a matcha, lightly sweetened, and a bacon, egg and cheese biscuit. The biscuit was perfect; not greasy and the perfect texture. I love their pickled zucchini which adds the perfect little crunch. Their garden patio is so cute and would be a great space for an event. I can't wait to come back again soon.

I found this sweet gem on Yelp while looking for a coffee spot while visiting Troy for the first time. WHAT A FIND. I absolutely love all the outdoor possibilities you have. From working/dining out front by the street with plenty of tables, chairs and just a chill little vibe if you want the street action mixed with a bit of people watching and enjoying the outdoors. If you're like me today, I chose the backyard solarium area to get some work done and grab a bite. It's so ZEN and I'm just obsessed with the plants and just the whole relaxing atmosphere. WHAT A FIND. Perfect place to grab lunch, catch up with a friend, do a work meeting, coffee date, really anything!

A new favorite spot for us.

I could have (should have?) made a meal of that, but I saw the Moroccan stew on the menu and was very excited to try it. Full disclosure...I used to make a mean Moroccan stew myself so I was expecting it to taste similar to the recipe that I followed....but I found their version to be rather bland, unfortunately. I would go back sometime and try something different...or maybe just get that sampler platter again.

I stopped in on a weeknight and ordered from the kiosk. I got the Grilled Chicken Signature Bol,…read morewhich is chicken, white rice, tomatoes, cucumbers, onions, feta and their signature white sauce. I also ordered a side of pita and hummus. I was dining in and waited less than 10 minutes for my food. The portion was absolutely HUGE! I couldn't believe it. I barely made a dent in it! It tasted fresh and the sauce was really tasty. The pita and hummus were also fresh too. I grabbed a box for my leftovers and had another meal out of it. Overall, the place was clean, there was enough seating if you're dining in, the food was fresh and ordering was extremely easy. Definitely recommend!

As soon as I read some reviews and looked at Bol's menu, I made it a point to get over there as…read moreconveniently as possible to begin enjoying their food. The restaurant is clean and bright and comfortable. You can order either from the kiosk at the side, or at the counter - and they're really helpful at the counter. I crafted a bowl with grilled chicken. I was expecting the chicken to have a slightly stronger flavor, but all the extra items in the bowl plus the sauces I requested really enhanced the flavor. I'm a big fan of their hummus, and I'm almost addicted to their house white sauce, which has just the right amount of garlic in it. Their cucumber mint iced tea also has a great flavor, though I do find it a bit sweet. Be aware that it might take a few minutes for your order to be ready. Bowls with cooked ingredients will take slightly longer. Plus, they are already doing a huge take-out business, so you can't judge only by the number of customers sitting in the restaurant. This is a wonderful addition to the area, and I look forward to many more meals here.

In searching for a healthy lunch option that has delivery options on Yelp, I came upon Bowled. I ordered one of their signature açai bowls. It came with an açai base, peanut butter, berries, granola, banana, and chia seeds. The ingredients were all fresh, it tasted delicious and was incredibly satisfying. It filled me up and got me through my workday. Their bowls deliver well so no worries there. My bowl arrived at my door perfect and ready to eat. Not sure what their in house experience is like but as for delivery--get to it!

The Roosevelt Room in Troy was a great experience from start to finish. I was honestly expecting a standalone building, but it is tucked into a strip mall near HVCC. That said, parking was easy and stress free, which is always a plus. This was our first visit as a party of four, and the service was superb. The attention to detail really stood out and was noticed immediately. Our waitress checked in at the right times, kept drinks filled, and made sure everything came out exactly as expected. Meals are made to order, so substitutions were no issue at all, and it was nice to see gluten free options available. When you walk in, you pass through a curtain and are immediately greeted by a coat attendant who takes your coats, which instantly gives the place an upscale feel. The ambiance is well done, with soft lighting and nice background music. It is on the smaller side and dimly lit, but that is clearly intentional. The menus actually light up, which was a unique and thoughtful touch that fits the atmosphere perfectly. We had reservations and were seated right away. It did not seem necessary on this particular evening, but I would definitely recommend them on a weekend given the size of the space. The food itself was excellent. Everything we ordered was very tasty, and the presentation across the board was impressive. Desserts are prepared by a pastry chef and were just as good as the rest of the meal. It is definitely on the pricey side, but that is to be expected for the level of service and atmosphere. This feels like a special occasion type of place, and in that context, it is worth every penny. We really enjoyed our night and would absolutely come back. There was also a sign mentioning live jazz on Fridays, which sounds like a great added touch. Overall, a very strong 5 stars.

Located in a strip near HVCC, once through the doors you are greeted by a friendly to welcome and direct you and we were directed to our goal- the bar. First, the design and decor are beautiful.

Wonderful mixologists who made our time there a true delight. We had scrumptious, perfectly made cocktails and our apps were delicious. Before our apps arrived, we were given an amuse bouche (manchego cheese with fig.) What a nice touch. Will definitely be back.
