    I had so much fun seeing Rumours, a Fleetwood Mac cover band, on Saturday. I walked into Pearl St…read more Pub and a sign directed me upstairs to the Upper Room. On this particular night, they had the dance floor covered in chairs and tables, set up like a comedy club or a dinner show. I see on their website that they sometimes clear those tables to provide a generous dance floor space. The table set up is good for comedy or jazz, but many FM songs are made for dancing! Luckily there was plenty of room to dance on the right side of the room, but obviously along the wall there isn't the best sight or sound. I think it would have been better to put the tables in a U shape and provide more room for dancing, which would have really elevated the energy in the room. There are booths along the left, too, so TONS of seating and not much good dance space, but luckily this could be changed in the future. I never had to wait long for a drink and the bartenders didn't mind when I asked for refills of water. I think this space has a lot of potential and I hope to see more music or comedy there soon!

    I've been waiting for a club like this in Albany for a long time. Where else in Albany can you see…read morenational and regional rock and blues acts. The room is great. I would guess it holds around 300 people. Table and table service and a bar in the back. Drink prices and admission prices are very reasonable. We have seen Papa Chubby and Savoy Brown and had a great time both times.

    I'm so mad at myself that I didn't know about this place sooner!! This is a great place!! We had a…read moregreat time! Small intimate seating for about 80. Improv is so fun to watch! If you want you could even take classes here if you want to be a part of the fun. Sundays are family shows (rated G). Although Saturday shows err on the side of adult situations, they are not vulgar, a swear here and there. I've been here twice and both times the staff was amazing, warm and welcoming. There is an elevator, you just need to ask for it. They have drinks and snacks, just check on line for what you might find there. Get over there!! You're missing out if you haven't been already!! Great way to spend Saturday evening.

They have a ticket counter with all sorts of Sea Tea swag, a snack bar with soda, beer, seltzer and a variety of snacks. The seating is comfortable with drink holders built in (this makes it even easier to clap and cheer for the very funny comedy)! And, of course, the Improv teams always do an amazing job performing live improv comedy - totally original and unscripted silliness. My favorite place to spend a night out in Hartford.

The entire party was there momentarily and had to ask for our food order to be taken after 30 min- watching them, they had all staff making drinks but they said only one person was bartender. Simple drinks 3 mimosas and 3 bloody Mary's still a few mixed up(spicy, no olive, lots of olives). We all ordered risotto breakfast items. It took another half hour to get our meals we had to ask for the Sriracha drizzle which was described on the menu. Tea, breakfast bowl and the cheeseburger, risotto were excellent. The timing was off some people did not receive their dishes for a while so we had to start eating. We inform the waste staff we had a show to get to and Schenectady and still had to ask for the check. Bathrooms were clean ambience was pleasant. If I were to guess I would say the kitchen was not prepped and ready to go. Luckily, we got to our 1pm show but not much time to spare. So if you're not in a hurry and not too picky, I would definitely recommend their breakfast, the unique offerings of comfort, risotto bowls. I would prefer my egg to not be well done on top not sure what their protocol is, but we weren't asked.

    Not surprised that they have closed. It is a shame. This was always one of my favorite go to places…read morewhen I visited Albany. However, it deteriorated terribly. My last visit there I was the only person in the restaurant and despite a bartender and a server I could not get my drink made correctly and I couldn't get any service and I walked out. In the past, the bartenders and servers were very friendly, but the last time they were terrible, miserable, unfriendly, and not attentive.
