Background: I was with a large group (7) of colleagues in town for a conference. Originally had made reservations, but ended up showing up about an hour early, but was seated quickly with no problems. Atmosphere: A casual, bar atmosphere. The restaurant is filled with antiqued, long picnic benches and tables that can accommodate about 8 or so people. Music was playing both in the main dining room/bar area and in the back kitchen- where you wait for your free pizza. Service: Was a bit slow, but it seemed there was only a few servers on the floor and it was pretty full when we arrived. Our waiter was friendly and patient as we asked a bunch of questions (What's on the pickle plate? Is it pickles?) and requests- (in stead of chips, can I have fries?). Food came out slowly, but pizza was there to fill in the gaps. At least apps came out fairly quickly.Food: A unique mix of modern and classic dishes. Lots of twists! Like the pickle plate had lots of pickled items (cauliflower, fiddle-head ferns, garlic, but no traditional pickles). Many of us ordered the pulled pork, which did NOT disappoint. Friend had the burger said it was good and other friend who had the curry chicken sandwich was happy too. Would I go back? IT is definitely a place to grab a casual meal with friends or colleagues after work. It had a fun atmosphere and solid food. I would come back if I was in the area again!

Vintage - Superb service, quality cuisine and impeccable wines in a revitalized and re-imagined urban warehouse. Pledging a mission of introducing wines that will suit every palate while ranging in price from everyday affordable to once in a lifetime. The
We met friends for dinner a few weeks ago. It was very good, but we felt out of syn. We were left standing for a few minutes before anyone came over to seat us for out 5:30 reservation. The portions are small and the happy hour specials are only available at the bar. The wine list is large, since they specialize in wines, but it is pricey. The food was good, but all and all we would not rush to return.

My husband and I stumbled across the Savoy Taproom while exploring Lark Street. What an awesome find! Great service, innovative drinks, live music (suitably atmospheric) and fantastic food. Everything we tried (most notably the brussel sprouts and ribs) was amazing. We intend to return next time we visit Albany.
