    On vacation in Schenectady NY and decided on DeMarco's Pizza because it was so close to our campground. In an older part of town, we parked on the street. A small pizza place, looks like the building was an old store at one time many decades ago. A carry out and if you want you can dine in at one of their tables. Very clean and organized considering its size. You check out the menu and order at the counter. Large cooler with ample choice's of beverages and 4 large already made pizzas, all different to choose from if you wanted a quick lunch or to take home a few slices. We placed our order with a very nice young woman at the counter. Sat at a table to wait for our dinner order to be brought to us. Steady stream of customers coming in to pick up their carry out orders and no doubt popular with the locals! Our Caesar salad was brought to us first with really good Italian bread and butter. That salad was huge and chilled and fresh with a great dressing and tasty croutons and ample shaved Parmesan cheese, it was delish, had some leftovers for home. Then that awesome, hot, delicious large Meat lovers cooked well down pizza arrived and it was piping hot and we wanted to jump in but had to wait for it to cool down a few minutes, then we dug in!! OMG, one of the best pizzas we have had the pleasure of eating, bar none!!! The pizza was delicious and the sauce and cheese perfect. Ample toppings and lots of cheese, we truly enjoyed our meal and had some to take home. Prices so reasonable for the Soda's, salad and that big pizza. You must try this place, highly recommend!! DeMarco's pizza has a cult following and my husband and I just joined the club! Debbie, Mich

    A friend of mine boasted of the wonderful Antipasto she got from Demarco's in Scotia. So, while I was in the neighborhood one day, I picked up one said salad to go. It was everything she said it was. A fresh bed of lettuce and greens topped with mounds of salami, ham, pepperoni and cheese along with red onions, peppers, pepperoncinis, and I can't remember the rest. It's not near me to visit regularly, but would if it were closer. Those who live near here I am sure they know of the great place they have.

    The place is now DeMarco's Pizza. ------------------------------------ I stopped here for dinner takeout recently. Mohawk Pizzeria (Route 5 Pizza) serves pizza (by the slice or whole pie), calzones, salads, subs, burgers, wings, fried seafood, Italian dinners, and Coke products from the cooler. The place is geared towards takeout and delivery with very limited seating (2 booths) in the waiting area next to the counter. I ordered the Chicken (Breaded Cutlet) Parmigiana with Ziti and the (6 Breaded) Shrimp Parmigiana with Spaghetti, which were baked and served round foil containers with garlic bread. I used an Entertainment coupon and the food bill came out to $9.26, a great deal. The portions of food were ginormous. The entrees had lots of melted mozzarella cheese, sweet tomato sauce with the pasta soft, a bit overcooked. The service here was good and quick. The food was ready in 10 minutes after placing the order.

It comes in round or loaf shapes and in one or two pound sizes. It is available in many local stores including the Niskayuna Co-op. True story: Jack Nicholson was filming in the area and found out about the delicious bread from his driver. He got the bread several times and thought it was great. He had it mailed to him. Photos of Nicholson and a related newspaper article are on display. The bread, rolls, and Tomato pie are baked in a coal fired brick oven from Italy. Besides the bread, there are other outstanding offerings including: Rolls! Breadsticks made at the bakery Bread Crumbs for cutlets and meatballs Tomato Pie -- so popular it often sells out Panini Sandwiches made fresh daily for grab & go. Italian olives and cheeses in the case. Italian cookies Parking in front and in a side lot shared with Cornell's Restaurant.

Ever since, I try to stop by about three or four times a year to enjoy the food and ambiance. The owners Mike and Barb are retiring 7/31/24 after fifty years. May they enjoy their retirement. The new owners, a couple from Schenectady, will keep the name and the menu. Bravo! It is a lot of work and long hours, but it was evident that the owners enjoyed their business and their customers, many of whom became regulars. You noticed that the food they prepared was made with love and expertise. It was consistently good. The menu has been constant over the years because it pleased customers and made the place a success. The roast beef and turkey are cooked daily. Plus, the potato salad and macaroni salad are made in house every morning by Barb. I had to stop by today to honor my memories of eating here over the years. I had a huge roast beef and turkey mix on rye with thousand island dressing and macaroni salad. Delicious as always. I took half home for my husband to enjoy. He did! My friend enjoyed a huge roast beef sandwich and a potato salad side. Even the dill pickle spears taste incredible here! It must be the yummy sandwich. We sincerely hope the quality and ambiance continue with the new owners. If that is the case, I look forward to supporting them. It is so much better than a chain restaurant.

On good days, they can serve one of the best sandwiches. Otherwise, I've had several occasions where I was left wondering why my pastrami sandwich was literally two pieces of bread with a small bit of pastrami - no dressing or anything else, and no questions asked. I like the attentiveness of the staff whenever we come here in person whether for diner in or takeaway, and their fresh pickles are wonderfully crunchy and worth looking forward to. They have some delicious pies, too, and the chocolate cream pie is our fave. I would go back, but the inconsistency over time certainly has dampened my enthusiasm that I may have once had.

R Gershon's Deli (Facebook) Dear Friends of Gershon's, It is with a heavy heart that I share this news with our loyal customers, friends, staff, and extended family. I have made the incredibly difficult decision to close Geshon's Deli & Caterers. Friday, January 30th, 2026, was our final day. This decision was not made lightly as Gershon's has been an integral part of my life since I was a little girl. After my father's untimely passing, I took over with one clear mission, to honor his legacy, keep his dream alive, and continue providing quality service and "good food for good people." For more than 60 years, Gershon's has been shaped by the people who walked through our doors. Every employee, customer, client, and friend has played a role in our story and our success. Unfortunately, rising food costs, ongoing economic challenges, the lasting effects of COVID, and the loss of my final opportunity this week have left me with no other choice. To everyone who has supported me over the past nine years, thank you. Thank you for the memories, for trusting us with your celebrations, holidays, milestones, and everyday moments. Thank you for allowing me to be part of your lives, in both the joyful times and the hard ones. I will miss seeing you all more than I can put into words. I am deeply grateful for the love and support you've shown me and my family over the years. I wish vou all nothina but the best. Please take care
