    Short rib grilled cheese was amazing, tots were crispy and everything was good. The service was on point and the atmosphere was as expected for a mall location. If you want to experience an original Maggie McFly then visit the Waterbury, CT location to see the original version and decor.

    Farm to Table Burger (looks better than it tastes)
    Juliet V.

    I met some good friends here for dinner. The company was fantastic the food was not. I ordered the farm to table burger medium. It was well done and not very good. The texture was hard and it tasted of grease. Not even the bacon or cheese helped this burger. The fries it came with were obviously frozen and small. On the positive side my vodka and soda was fine and they service was friendly. I liked the booth we sat in too.

    Shrimp & Scallops Alla Vodka
    Jayden N.

    The service was great! The ambiance of the space was very separated off which was good but it just felt kind of dead. The food was decent. Nothing to speak out on really. Could've had more scallops because it was really just a Shrimp Alla Vodka.

    Really wasn't great. Food was not great. Service was terrible, manager was terrible, bar tender was terrible, server was a nice girl. Ambiance was dysfunctional and disorganized.

    Ravioli
    Seth P.

    Maggie McFly's is one of my go to places for casual dining when going out with a mixed crowd for dinner because there are so many options and they are accommodating to vegans and gluten free diners. I must admit this is the third time I've had the lettuce wraps appetizer as my meal with the Sweet Earth plant-based chick'n. It tastes just like sauteed chicken to me and my non-vegan friends who have tried it. The flavors are really good and the variety of sauces is really great. My wife typically gets a plant-based burger when we go but she tried the Vegan Ravioli this time. She only ate one of these vegetables stuffed ravioli which was topped with more grilled vegetables. I guess it was good she ordered a side of fries. We took the rest home and I brought them to work for lunch and they were pretty disappointing. The oreo cupcake is the only vegan dessert and the one we were given was frozen on the inside but luckily we had no plans to eat it until we got home. It was really good but based on it being frozen I can only assume the desserts are made elsewhere and come in frozen. So this wasn't out best outing at Maggie McFly's but based on previous experiences I would go back again. The other guest we were with enjoyed his slider meal. No children with is this time but they have a kids menu. They also have a full bar with cocktails and many draft beers on tap. If you're looking for dining at Crossgate's Mall, check out the binder sized menu at Maggie McFly's!

    Painkiller and huckleberry lemonade

    First time visiting and we will probably be back! Firstly, the menu is MASSIVE. If you are indecisive, I would recommend looking at the menu beforehand because there are a lot of options. Alcoholic beverages were tasty and came quick. The service was good (our waiter was Adam) and we were able to get in and get out in a timely manner. Food was also delicious and we were able to take half of it home to eat for another meal.

    BBQ Pulled Pork Sandwich
    Alana L.

    I came for a late night dinner. Slow service & food is nothing above a college student's dorm cooking abilities, but at least the fries are decent. It feels like the wait staff forgets to check in for food. it took over 10 minutes for the check to be collected since no one even glanced over to the table

    Kids Chicken Fingers

    Mediocre at best. Waited 15 minutes for a hostess to even come up front. It took ten minutes for anyone to acknowledge us and there were two other parties waiting with us. We went early lunch and the place was maybe a quarter filled and it took 45 minutes to get three dishes. Took 10 just to get three waters. Menu is big so there is something for everyone and atmosphere is nice. All the food was barely warm but we didn't complain because it took so long to begin with. Maybe it was a bad day but it was terrible.

    Vodka Soda

    Surprisingly good spot for being inside a mall, very nice staff and a large menu with lots of variety.Drinks were very strong, not a negative if that's your thing!

    Crispy fish sandwich
    Hwal L.

    I got my lunch from this joint for the second time in barely a week because I liked the crispy fish and chowder so much, but the overcooked, mostly-batter "fish" with a modicum of slaw and the absence of tartare sauce the second time would make me hesitate to order from them again. Both times, we placed a group lunch order for pickup, and everything was outstanding the first time - the fish was golden brown and the tartare sauce definitely complemented, and the extra tomato slice added 'juice' to what was already a knockout sandwich. I give them credit for the clam chowder which was a creamy,clam-my perfection both times, but such an avoidable inconsistency in quality, coupled with the missing dressing for the sandwich, really put a damp on my lunch. I hope they continue to improve.

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.

I was pleasantly…read moresurprised by the nice ambiance and decor with what looked like a copper top ceiling, a main bar, a few raised tables and 2 cozy leather chairs that made me think of enjoying a nice after dinner bourbon in the study of an late 19th to early 20th century study of a business tycoon or politician from that time period.. The bar tender, Noah, was impressive and friendly in that he knew his liquor stock very well, and could explain the flavor intricacies of the various types of bourbon, vodka, and gins. They also offer some non,-alcoholic beverages for the "designated driver" of the group too. We watched Noah make everything from regular and "dirty martinis" with fresh ingredients, as well as one drink where he used a butane lighter and some tiny cedar chips in a straining tool above the drink to give it a fresh, authentic smoky look and flavor. Noah knows his stuff!!!!! The patrons were friendly, diverse, and easy to socialize with if you chose to do so. The establishment is pet friendly for "socialized pets" with a water bowl outside the establishment and some free Milkbone treats inside. Keep in mind that this establishment is a "tasting room" with the majority of products from the New Scotland Distillery, but there are other options. Just don't expect to get a Bud Light Draft or food here. The only downside is that parking in the Lark Steet and State Street location is difficult to obtain without some effort, but we managed to park our vehicles 2 blocks away. This is not a direct criticism of the establishment because the experience is well worth this minor potential inconvenience. We would definitely go back there again, especially for the specialty drinks or the flights and half flights of their bourbon and vodka products. Thank you once again, Noah, for a pleasant and educational evening!!!

As I waited for the hostess she was clearly overwhelmed and couldn't eek out a smile to any of the people she greeted. In the lively restaurant, a few tables of girls-night out, birthday dinners, couples both young & old, bar seating with the World Cup on TV. Our server was very pleasant. The food was good, by Albany standards, heavy on the butter, salt and cream. It wasn't bad but for me they could pull back on the richness and let the herbs/mushrooms/fish/etc shine through. 2 out of the 3 us intentionally only ate half our portions, planning to eat the rest "tomorrow" and told the server we wanted to box them togo. She offered to do that for us, while we were happily chatting, sipping the rest of our wine. When the boxes didn't reappear, the server apologized that someone threw the boxes away. It was disappointing, especially when we paid $25-28 dollars for our plates of pasta. Based on the overworked hostess and server, management needs to adjust their staffing to insure a better customer experience. When they toss out leftovers, not just a single bite, but huge plate of food, it would seem appropriate to provide a "peace offering" perhaps put a small dessert togo or certificate for a free appetizer on a future visit. If I was local I'd probably return.
