    Orders all placed! Main act on stage... the table directly in front of us has drinks

    Attended the comedian Mojo Brookzz set with Fab Monroe as the opener I have no complaints the show was cool the SERVICE however was horrid!! And the side wall obstructed view seating is crazy it's like they just try squeezing in a seat where ever they can get one not concerned at all with the paying customers view of the stage at all.... The show started a few minutes shy of an hour LATE we just myself and one friend were seated waited 25 plus minutes for the server we put in our drink order as well as an order of wings.... About 45 minutes in the server brings over the sorry looking wings( like dominos wings) but no drinks... those seated in-front of us and behind us all had food and drinks and we literally ordered at the same time same server... we asked about our drinks and she said they'll be out soon the bar is slammed... some time passed and we caught her walking by and asked AGAIN she claimed she went to check the bar for them and when she came back she said the drinks hadn't been made and there's no longer a bartender at the bar! Mood killed but yet she proceeded to give us the bill with 18% gratuity added in... gratuity for what,,??? We gave back the untouched pigeon wings she was unapologetic and gave attitude as if it were our fault we didn't get our drinks smh literally 5mins after that Mojo's set was done and the show was over. That goes to show how LONG we waited for NOTHING...after the show there was lots of chatter about the lack of service provided. I feel like I spent more time wondering where our food and drinks were and trying to get our servers attention than I did actually enjoying the show! Funny bone in St. Louis was amazing 10/10 all around.. This Albany location was a bust. Maybe just bring your own food and drinks in your purse that'll probably be BEST. And we traveled from out of state for this. Not a happy customer at all. I'll have to catch mojo again at a more well equipped venue to fully enjoy him.

    Giving this 4 stars cause everything but the food is great. The food is meh. Overpriced and nothing noteworthy, but the drinks are great (even if they're also expensive) and the staff is amazing. Had a great waitress who was attentive and hilarious. The shows are great, so maybe just eat beforehand

    Not sure why this place gets so many bad reviews. There's really not much else competition in the area, and with that youd think this place could get by as a shitshow, but it doesn't! A co-worker and I came here on an early Friday showing for Joe Zimmerman and he was amazing! The MC and comedy opener were equally as great. -1 star because they put groups together, which can become kind of awkward when you're staring a couple down. Maybe keep an area for general seating and an area for people to order food? For a comedy show restaurant, the food was beyond expectations. They defintely put in a bit of effort into their menu (its not just things like chicken fingers, mozzerella sticks, fries.) I had their pulled pork sandwich was soooooo good. That blueberry habanero sauce pulled the sandwich together. It was only my first time here, and Ill be back without a doubt.

    We had such an amazing time! Anthony and Johnny were so funny! I never laughed so hard. If you ever get the change to see Anthony Rodia and Goumba Johnny DO IT!!! OMG are they funny!! I'm sad to write our service was not the best (directly due to our waiter). I spoke to management today and have to say she was extremely apologetic and was very open to listening to my concerns. I can tell by our phone conversation she will take care of the issue we had. Because of this and just the atmosphere of the place we will definitely be going back again soon! What a fun night out. Get there early, have some dinner and drinks before the show.

    Arrived with a large party of ten. We were asked to come at 8:30. Event to begin at 9:30 and doors to open at 9:15. The first show is running behind. No big deal. The venue is very disorganized. we are waiting in the bar area, and staff isn't sure which door we are entering in. The line extends down the hall into the mall. There is limited access to a bathroom as it's roped off, people are walking around the rope . The other show is still going on at 9:22 and they haven't exited the room. Limited number of bartenders serving drinks. Music in the lobby where everyone is waiting is overly vulgar to be heard in the mall and LOUD. Atmosphere and conversation amongst guests was nice. I will update after the comedy showing. Update: upped to three bar service was quick at the outside bar though out of many selections.

    Went to my first show with some friends. The seats were good. It appears that all seats make it easy to see the stage. The opening act who I guess is the MC, was just okay. ( sorry Travis). But the two comedians that preformed that night were hysterical. I know I have read reviews that it is not always a great show but I must have hit a great night! Yes, drinks are a little expensive but that is expected. The price of food seemed reasonable although we did not order anything. My friends ordered the funnel fries and the brownie and said they were both delicious. Our waitress was attentive. I did not receive my complementary souvenir glass with my drink. I myself wasn't concerned, but I can see how this could pose a problem for others. All in all we had a very fun evening, It is worth giving it a try at least once!

They close for half an hour between four and 430 just to switch into the evening . Check their website for accurate hours. ***** We did not need to make a reservation. We just walked in. Husband and I came for date night and we LOVED everything we had! The drinks the food the atmosphere, everything was perfect! The service was quick friendly and fun! I had the lavender mocktail which came with actual pieces of lavender in it and my husband had the other mocktail offered. Both had beautiful presentation that was so enticing! For food I had the chicken skewers which for hot honey was NOT spicy in the least so don't let that scare you away if you're sensitive to spice it's incredibly mild. I wish a small bit of rice/zucchini or something was served with the chicken to fill out the meal but the chicken itself was SO yummy!! we also ordered the shoestring truffle french fries and we were a little nervous cause shoestring could be really thin, but these were the perfect size. They weren't too thin and they were so yummy. My husband ordered the salmon and that equally was perfect, served with quinoa. After we both had the raspberry cake for dessert! I found the dessert to be larger than the dinner for myself and I had a hard time finishing it so my husband finished his and mine lol it was so so good!! it's a beautiful dining room with the screened in porch. There is a champagne vending machine for mimosas. If you come for brunch, they also offer catering. We had such a good time and we absolutely cannot wait to get back there to try their brunch menu!!!

When we received out food the syrup was spilt by the server but they never refilled it for us. We also were given silverware and not napkins which to me feels a little odd. Our drinks arrival time was Staggered as well so we were not able to enjoy our drinks at the same time lest they become cold or no longer desirable. Despite all this both the food and drink were very good.

It's been forever…read moresince I've been at a mall, but there was plenty of parking despite the rainy weather, and we got into here quickly for a table for dinner. Their dessert case right in front of the entrance was taunting me.... We were seated and greeted by Sang Jun, who was fantastic. It turns out that we are all Korean, we figured that out at the end of the meal but he was amazing as a server. Never needed to ask for anything, made several recommendations, and we had a really great meal and evening. The menu is giant! Come hungry for sure! I started out with a margarita flight, which was not only beautiful, but delicious. We started out with the ahi tuna nachos, which was delicious and beautiful. Scallions, tuna, fried wonton skins as chips, jalapeños and sauce that made it all worth every calorie. I ignored the jalapeños, but still inhaled the tuna and everything else. Crowd pleaser for sure. My nephew got the salmon special, served with sweet potatoes. I ordered the bang bang shrimp and chicken that came with lo mein. The sauce was a Thai curry base and has veggies and was literally inhale-able. I ate the proteins (cooked perfectly) and some of the noodles, then ended up eating the leftover noodles the next morning. Still just as good cold out of the fridge! My brother got the ramen. They were out of the pork (or it was off the menu) so he went with the beef. That looked so good, bowl was filled to brim with noodles, garnishes, and beef. It was perfect since he wasn't feeling well. My nephew decided halfway thru his salmon dish he wanted a side Caesar salad and Sang Jun brought one tha looked like it was made for the Internet. Well plated and giant portion. We were absolutely stuffed so we had no room for desserts, even though they looked so good in the cooler walking in. We had a nice discussion with SJ about our family trip to Korea last summer, telling him about some of the most embarrassing moments and getting a good laugh. I guess this is a chain, but I hope that I see one again. I'll be ready to have the same exact thing, or try something new- I'm sure it will be amazing. Thanks to the team and Sang Jun for a memorable meal here in Albany!

Let me add some clarification that for most of this time I've watched the two waiters standing there chatting with a waitress, or one chat chatting with a couple guys at the bar, and I can count how many customers are in this restaurant right now on one hand. Trish had a similar experience about four or five years ago which she came here with some work acquaintances how we decided to give them a second chance. They won't be getting a third.

Wireless internet? In a tavern? You mean enjoy wings and a beer in a casual environment and catch up on my Yelping at the same time? Sign me up. I don't know why I didn't listen to my instincts and run away when I first stepped foot in this place. It had the distinctive smell of toilet soap-cakes. Plus the restaurant was almost deserted. Two women in their 80s were eating a sandwich, drinking a bottle of bud (from a glass, mind you, they were ladies) and playing keno. You get the picture. I could go into more detail, but it's just not worth it. The wings that I ordered crispy, were some of the slimiest I have had in the area. The blue cheese dressing had turned and was curdled. A few of the wings were mangled, with bones sticking out in all directions. I'm a pretty tough customer. It takes a lot to turn my stomach. But I actively tried (and ultimately succeeded) in keeping those wings down. It wasn't easy, but mint gum and herbal tea are very soothing. And the punchline: Yes they have wireless internet access... but it's password protected.
