Reviews for The Cuckoo's Nest in Albany, NY
Tried this place on a whim while looking for somewhere to eat in the Albany area. The entire restaurant has a really cute theme,... and the bar area is just beautiful. However, we thought some of the food was just okay, and maybe a little overpriced for whatit was. The mac and cheese was pretty good though. Also, wish they had main-dish options besides salad for people who don't eatmeat. All I could order was sides. (Parking in rear) Read more
A delightfully refreshing brunch place. Service employees were well oiled and worked so well together it was like they were... dancing as they ran around each other. The food was out of this world. The ambiance was magical. We cannot wait to return ourbetter yet yet dinner. Read more
Fantastic food, in a cozy setting. Chicken and waffles were flavorful and absolutely perfect. Beautiful smoke ring and smokiness... to the ribs. Grits with cheese were an excellent side that I would not usually order. Fried green tomato appetizer wasexcellent. Generous portions, and a lot of food for the price. Will be back next time I’m in Albany. Read more

Really great southern restaurant. To be honest, when we drove up to what appeared to be a neighborhood restaurant, I was... skeptical. Super creative menu and tasty drinks. Definitely would recommend! Read more
Amazing!!! This place is such a hidden but non hidden jewel. I enjoyed every minute of our dinner here on a Friday night. We... didn't have a reservation but we were greeted with a smile and seated right away. Atmosphere: This place is small but theatmosphere is very nice with a twist of homey & modern. Inside the restaurant was a bit chilly so we ended up dining outside.Both inside and outside seating had ample amount of seating and very nice. Staff: Everyone and I mean everyone was superfriendly at this establishment. The hostess was sure to greet us with a smile and our server was just as friendly. Everyoneseemed to help each other out and was quick to answer any questions and helped to make you feel welcomed. Food: This placedoesn't have a huge menu but there is still plenty to choose from. I went with the salmon while my spouse went for the NashvilleChicken Sandwich. Everything was made fresh to order and was cooked to perfection. We also ordered a few drinks and they werejust as tasteful as the food. Overall, I would recommend this place to any and everyone. I can't wait to be back in the areaagain do I can give this place another visit. Read more
We were pleasantly surprisedly on the decor and ambiance of this restaurant. The staff is exceptional and were accommodating to... our elderly mother which we greatly appreciated. Presentation was top notch and the food was delicious at a reasonable price. Ionly wish the biscuits were a softer but other than that everything was great and I would highly recommend this place to friendsand family. Read more
