Renaissance Albany

Oh my goodness, this restaurant was amazing! Everything we ordered was fantastic. The Cubano Mac n Cheese was incredibly flavorful, topped with shredded pickles. If I could only have one last meal, this would be it. The Cod and Shrimp dish was also outstanding, with a sauce that really made it stand out. We enjoyed it so much that I could only snap a picture halfway through eating it. The atmosphere and decor were lovely, making it a perfect place to bring my mom to.

The food at this restaurant was amazing! We were staying at the Renaissance hotel which is connected to the restaurant. My husband ordered the filet with mashed potatoes and spaghetti squash with a delicious au jus. I had the duck breast with butternut squash puree, miatake mushrooms, caramelized fennel, and arugula, and it was absolutely delicious.

Oh yes!! On a chilly winter evening, we enjoyed a fantastic dinner. The ribeye steak was perfectly cooked and the server recommended a delicious powow cod dish. Absolutely fantastic!

Between NCAA Regional Hockey games we ventured out for lunch. While an uphill hike, Wellington's is worth the trek. A very creamy and tasty carrot soup eased our chill. Their Capitol Burger was sizeable and cooked to order, medium. The smoked onion mayo was a pleasant change from the usual ketchup. A mound of nicely cooked fries completed the classic combo. The lightly dressed ?W? Caesar was a pile of romaine, radicchio, parmesan crisps and roasted garlic croutons. Theshow stopper was their rich pecan caramel fudge coated NY style cheesecake. My bourbon and honey laden Mighty Leaf black tea played well with dessert and finished an excellent lunch.

Wellingtons is a beautifully styled restaurantA real treat especially if you consider that it's in a hotel.
