Pagliacci Ristorante
Mar 17, 2008 by THE FANTONE FAMILY from MASSACHUSSETTS
Overall Rating: 10
Food:[9] • Service:[10] • Atmosphere:[9]

• New ownership across from times union quick service.
• You have old staff let them go.

“It is under new management the new name is "pearl street public house". I have to say this was a whole new place from our last years experience. The waitress explained that there still might be some changes. Our waitress was entertaining, quick and personable, even with a full dining room she managed to spend quality time with all her tables. It was quiet at first in the back then with-in minutes we were not alone. Great job new owners keep up the good work. We actually had to hang out for 40 minutes until our show started. We were greeted with-in a minute , drinks right after, then we received our meals with-in ten minutes of our order. Everyone must try out the all new restaurant across from the times union center. The nasty waitress we had last year i saw that night please get rid of her she is bad business.”

• Great for small parties.
• Not real fancy.

“I have gone there several times for company Christmas / Retirement parties. The food was always good with good portions. It is a nice cozy place with a bar in the other room. It is a nice casual restaurant, not real fancy.”

Overall Rating: 9
Food:[9] • Service:[6] • Atmosphere:[7]

• Everything Ive tried is fantastic.
• Slow service.

“I travel to Albany 4-6 times a month for business and always make a point to eat at Ralphs. The service is just ok but the food is worth waiting for.”

Professor Javas Cof Sanctuary
Oct 20, 2007 by Nancy from Berkeley CA
Overall Rating: 8
Food:[7] • Service:[9] • Atmosphere:[10]

• The egg and cheese wrap for breakfast, with a good latte.
• Restricted menu mostly wraps and pastries.

“This homey, funny, real place is the perfect antidote to the holiday inn next door where I was attending a conference. Good coffee and wraps and totally comfortable surroundings. It's in an actual old house in contrast to the strip mall fast food world around it. Not everybody's cup of tea, I suppose, but it felt more like Berkeley than Berkeley does these days. The yes no questions on this site may be misleading. I was there on business (a conference) but my business is songwriting and storytelling. .”

Grandmas Pie Shop

Overall Rating: 5

• The atmosphere.
• The prices.

“I was recently at grandma's pie shop and paid $10.00 for a piece of pumpkin pie alamode. They charged $5.50 for the pie and $4.50 for the ice cream. My receipt stated $5.50 for pie alamode. I thought alamode included the ice cream, but I was charged another $4.50 for the ice cream. I brought to the attention of one of the workers and they said the ice cream is only provided with the apple cinnamon pie. That was a pretty expensive dessert! I won't be going back again!”
