Reviews for Philly Bar & Lounge in Latham, NY
Good food and drinks with plenty of screens to watch the game ????
Great Service. Had the All American Burger with Fries. Delicious. Our server was very attentive to our needs and was fast and... efficient on getting our order to us. Read more
Reasonable food, meh service. Outside bar, bartender spent 90% of her time talking with two guests. 6 more at the bar. Never... once checked in on how the food was etc. Baja fish tacos- reasonable. nice fry on the fish. Quality tortilla?s? they should beslapped on the chargrill for some grill marks- more flavor & texture. Cabbage & pico needed salt, adding fresh lime squeeze wasa big improvement. Lacked acid. (Not served with lime wedge) House chips were thick & salted well. Thick & chunky salsa. Read more
We saw a different person through each part of our meal. However, no one ever came back to check after our food was delivered... until we finally had to ask for the bill. Oddly empty for a weekend lunch. The cheese steak and fries were really good. Largeportions. Read more
Enjoyed a delicious and generous lunch! I tried the chicken pesto hoagie which came with their home-made chips and both were... great. Loved the balsamic glaze and the pesto was tasty. We'll definitely be back! Read more
Most of the menu is just so so. But the Philly Cheese Steaks are Better than Pat?s or Geno?s in South Philadelphia. I?m not... kidding. The roll perfect, just the right amount fat in the meat & cheeze wiz! Yup only CheezeWiz on a Philly Cheese steak.Caramelized Onions are a perfect add on. Read more
Soooo this place vexes me. On one side, most of the food that came out was good. On the other side, we had a little issue that... wasn't really alleviated. Wasn't a horrible experience, but I would've gladly gave Phillys 4 stars if they had handled itproperly. Let's brrak it down. Came with a squad of 7 for dinner including my boy, new wife, bro, sis, mom and pops inlaw. Apps: Calamari and buffalo cauliflower. Calamari was light, crispy and delicious. The red (schezuan style?) lookingdipping sauce was excellent. The buff caul had blue cheese or goat cheese or some cheese chunk droplets all over it. They weretasty with a nice kick. Only wish there was more of each. Wasn't a small portion or anything, just wished there was more. Mostof us ordered beef cheesesteaks with different toppings and dif cheeses. Mine had suayeed onions and peppers wit Wiz. Alwaysmoney. Everyone who had a cheesesteak enjoyed it. This is their specialty afterall. Other orders: The sweet potato falafel.Fried Oyster Po' Boy. The Salmon dish. Falafel was good (although our waitress asked how she wanted that cooked..not sure ifthat's an Albany/upstate thing). Oyster po boy was tasty (although one side of the po boy had about 2 oysters and the other sidewas loaded with like 9..Im not a stickler for that kinda stuff, but my wife is and she had the half w/ 2 on it, so i gave hersome of mine). Salmon was where the stars start to get knocked off. As a whole, the dish was great. Salad was good, friedpolenta cake thing was good, salmon was season nicely..buuuuttt it was raw in the middle. I literally heard Gordon Ramsayshouting in my head that the salmon was 2 seconds away from swiming upstream! So we had the waitress come over, but she didn'treally know what to say or do..she said she hadn't been working there for a few weeks, but is that really a good excuse? Shesent the salmon back. Took the whole half eaten plate. We all finished our meals as they prepped a new piece of fish. It came Read more
I literally will never waste my time stepping foot in this place again. My wife and I had wanted to try this place since we... moved to Albany. So we just thought we would grab a to go order. I literally walked in to an empty dining area but completelypacked bar with no room to put in an order. Stood there for 15 mins and asked 3 different waitresses if they could take myorder. They all 3 told me, oh well just go to the bar and order even after I pointed out there was no place to go to make a togo order or empty chairs. Finally after the third time I got that answer I tossed the menu on the table and told them I would gosomeplace that actually wanted to serve customers. If I could give less than 1 star I would but they can be assured myself andanyone I talk to will never spend our money at this place. Read more
