    Trying to have it with sauce, so I can taste something.
    Sovy M.

    I have been here a lot of times years ago. I remember they used to have amazing pizza. I guess back then my expectations weren't high. But their pizza was amazing. Fast Forward 11years. I went there yesterday for a quick bite. I got vegetarian and Broccoli cheese slices. There was no taste whatsoever. I couldn't taste anything, felt like eating flour. It seems as if they get a frozen bag of broccoli and just throw it on the pizza. Everything seemed stale. Even the olives on the pizza. If you are having a good time, went out drinking etc. you can go with this food. But any pizza lovers out there. I would suggest go somewhere else in Albany, unless they drastically improve their quality of pizza. I mean they can at least add salt to their food. A business can cut corners and maximize their profits. But really if you don't put out good quality ingredients, then I don't know. I am not going back here for a while. I just re read this review and thought to myself, I sound like I have a liking for the salt. But trust me I don't. I am trying to be healthier actually.

    The wings were bad! I ordered extra crispy extra saucy, but these don't look so good. Unacceptable

    I went into Westgate pizza Bella to order a slice staff was friendly and nice but then when I got home and opened my box with pizza I took a bite and noticed there was a dead roach in my pizza box under my plate ruined everything. Will not be coming back. Unacceptable

    Take my advice. Do not order from these pizzeria. My delivery peron was very nice and apologetic for this delivery. Here is why 1. I ordered red flake and Parmesan packets. She was told they "were out of them". 2. I also ordered a side of pizza sauce or marinara and told them I would pay extra if needed. 3. No utensils or paper towels! 4. The pizza has grease, literally grease sitting on it. 5. I called up the restaurant, requested to speak to the manager. His exact words were "There is nothing I can do for you". I tried to explain I have my receipt showing everything. As a traveling professional in healthcare, this was a slap in the face!

    Pizza Bella in Westgate plaza is a great little place to stop in for a slice or enjoy their hot & cold food bars for just $8.99. I ordered a 12" pizza with vegan cheese olives, and artichoke hearts. Other than vegetable there are no other vegan options but thats ok. I included pictures of my visit including the buffet. The prepared pizza looks good and the staff is friendly. If you check-in there is a coupon to claim one slice for free. The coupon comes up every check-in but I haven't utilized it because there were no vegan slices available. The menu lists vegan dessert is available but I didn't see any. Overall, a good experience and I definately recommend for dining in, take out, or delivery. They stay open very late.

    My order.

    Great food made to specify tastes. Very wide range of foods they prepare and is well prepared for the type of food served.

My wife ordered Veal Parmesan with a side of spaghetti while I went with the prime rib sandwich. I managed to finish my meal, but the serving was so large that she had to take hers home in a box. The hostess was kind enough to seat us at a table so I could have my back to a wall saying only that we need to be out of there in 90 minutes because it was reserved. We sat down ate , paid our bill and left in almost exactly an hour. Olive Garden could learn a thing or two from this place as the food was nice and hot and neither the hostess nor the waitress ever argued with me, even Lanie herself, stopped by to check on us. It was nice to see her as it's been quite a few years since I've been in there. How about that? I actually sat down and had a meal at a restaurant with no complaints.With a decaf iced tea for my wife and a glass of ice water with lemon for me the bill came to $80 and change, because everyone was so nice and accommodating I put a $100 bill on the table and left, we will return.

Joe's Grill is not a place to go see and be seen. It's not where you go chasing the latest cult beer can release. One might look at it and think it's not a place to go for the food either. Those people would be wrong. Are there regulars in there, sucking down beers on a Saturday afternoon? You bet there are. If you get there early, you might even inadvertently sit in one of their seats. But don't worry about it. You're just visiting. They know you'll be gone before too long. Actually, if you order food, you might be at Joe's longer than you might suspect. The food is cooked to order, and it's worth the wait. The wings are seriously good. Now I want to go back and try the pizza. Actually, I want to try a lot of the things on the menu. I'm not entirely sure about the dining room. There's a pool table right in the middle. And while nobody was playing, I found sitting at the bar felt like a much more natural place to be. But this isn't the place to come with a group. They have beer on tap. But beer in bottles is probably a better option. Judging by the empties, It looks like they go through a lot of bottles, so I would expect product cycles through with some regularity. When drinking macro brews, I prefer them to be impossibly cold. But old refrigerators aren't quite up for the task. Still, that's okay. Because do you know what Joe's has that places with colder refrigerators don't? Character. And it's not a character that can be created or imitated. You can't artfully decorate your way to a soulful bar on a forgotten stretch of Central Avenue. But you should find a way to get yourself there. For fried fatty foods, beer in bottles, and some classic rock on the jukebox. It feels wrong to take an Uber or a Lyft. Maybe you can have the car pick you up or drop you off next door, and you can walk the 90 feet to Joe's. Then maybe you could feel like you're part of the neighborhood. More than anything else, this is a neighborhood tavern. And Albany's taverns are this region's diamonds in the rough. They may not look like much, but the culinary and cultural wealth they hold inside is staggering.

(Certainly a lucky neighborhood) It looks small from the street but once you walk in, it opens up to a sizable store. We were greeted by a friendly staff member, he took the time to describe their cheese selection and the other things going on in the shop. He then pivoted to giving us tons of help selecting the right cheese. We sampled a couple of things and then he dialed in three choices for us to buy. (With an assist from another customer that insisted that we would love the Delice de Bourgogne) Prices were reasonable enough for the quality. We added some gourmet crackers that were neutral enough to not overpower the cheese. The next day, we made the three cheeses the focus of our lunch. The Delice de Bourgogne was the star of the show, a creamy, earthy, and savory masterpiece. The two year aged Gouda and creamy blue cheese were delightful as well!

We appreciated the relatively local (Quebec, VT, NY) cheeses they have, and our destination cheese, Wisconsin Brick (which we had never tried before, and which they were quite willing to work with us on getting the appropriate size). The sandwiches looked delicious but we were there at the wrong time of day, alas, but we will 100% be back. If you like cheese, this is a destination location for the region.
