Always a good experience. I love the Ibizia chicken salad, no eggplant, on wheat bread. Such a good sandwich. Filling and yummy. Consistently good.

For “sprint to eatery from cubicle then back again” food, not bad. Tasty, affordable and served quickly, with several options for smoothies. Staff very courteous, and bathrooms are clean. Al fresco section in season.

Love this place for the good natured and helpful staff. Although I typically have a late breakfast or brunch, I've never been disappointed -- other than once when their awesome homemade Corn Beef Hash was not available! However, the suggested Greek omelet was the best ever! Outside porch is a great place for enjoying the nice weather under cover. Bicycle friendly.

Went for lunch today, even though there was a lunch rush, my order only took about 5 min. I got the Supreme BLT and coleslaw. It was delicious!!! Coleslaw I think is made with apple cider vinegar, and was a nice tangy side for my sandwich. Will return!

Loved it, nice quick place. Open layout, staff is friendly and order took all of 10 minutes. Food was great and the prices are very reasonable for what you're getting. All in all, def. Be back. Pictured (The Italian Omelet)

Just simple Deli Restaurant in the middle of Downtown Albany. Food tastes just like all other Deli eateries. I felt energized after eating this and could walk around easily. Very close to free Public Parking after 12pm with security watching our vehicles until 5pm without charging an extra fee.

Omelettes were great! Just be aware that the prices you are charged do not reflect the price on the menu at the counter. When I asked about the difference I was told “Prices are subject to change”

Great location! Across the state Capitol. Clean place with nice and polite staff. The chicken noodle soup is delicious and also the sandwiches.

came in to pickup a order and nobody helped me for about 5 minutes. only to be told i cant take my order unless i show them it on my phone. even tho I told them my first and last name. crazy. I had to walk back and get my phone in the freezing cold. also caused a scene in front of a bunch people. very embarrassing on the business' end. "employee" who i dealt with was some guy named aiden. was really upset about this. other than that food is good.

This place is very very mid. It survives because the area around one commerce plaza is a desert for food. They routinely get your order wrong, and the prices seem high for the area. I would only go there as a last resort if you work upstairs.

Let’s start with the service I Waited in line for about 10 minutes but the two people in front of me only ordered coffee. The girl at the front walks away and is very apologetic. About another 5 minutes past before someone takes my order. I order a hot chocolate (tasted just like brown water ) and a western omelette with toast and home fries . And the food was nasty. Home fries were burnt. Toast had no butter (nor jelly in bag) and omelette was good once I put hotsauce on it lol .Probably wouldnt go again …

1st time ordering. While the sandwich was tasty, it wasn't exactly what I wanted. The receipt has what I ordered, the Downtown Campus on a toasted sesame bagel. What I got was the correct sandwich on an untoasted everything bagel. It's not rocket science especially when it isn't busy. Sorry, but not making that mistake again.

Giving them a 1 star for impact... Sandwiches are excellent. The people are excellent. The service would get 5 stars except for one pet peeve. I like that they use paper based boxes. And I like that they use paper bags. But the problem is the paper bag. It can't be used as a bag. It's just another layer of paper around the box... It has to be carried like a tray and not like a bag. It's annoying. I'll still get sandwiches here, but I hate how they use their "bags". It's wasteful and ineffective. That is all.

The food is usually on point and delicious. I got comfortable ordering the chicken sandwich which I don’t normally do at restaurants after two good experiences. Third time isn’t a charm. I’m so upset because it’s perfectly crispy and tasty but of course they used a gross piece of chicken. now eating curly fries for lunch. Looks like I will stop getting the chicken. Update to this review. I frequent this place as it’s in the building I work in and give them quite a bit of business. Today they were so awfully and unnecessarily rude as a result of an extremely simple request that would’ve taken 2 seconds. Their food is tasty and it is convenient but i will not be going again. next door to cafe one eleven it is. There are a lot of complaints on here about their customer service but they refuse to get it together. Several small hairs in my salad. Gross had to throw the whole thing away

They mislabel a lot of traditional Arab food as Israeli. I used to go here for breakfast all the time but the prices are too high and I don't feel comfortable enabling the appropriation of Arab cultures. I'll take my money somewhere else.

Unicorn Onion

The atmosphere is the nicest around here but the food has gone downhill since the last few times I've eaten here. I think the worst part is that this place not only falsely labels Arab food as Israeli, but also butchers those very simple Arab salads and ingredients. I don't want to support the erasure of Arab culture. To people considering this cafe, please just go to one of the nearby delis, cafes, or Middle Eastern restaurants. The food and service are way better and cheaper at those spots.

Not only does the food suck for the cost, but they'll include things you specifically ask to remove & then tell you it's "not fair" to give you a partial refund when the food made you throw up. Really great, guys, keep it up. Place is hardly accessible for mobility aids on top of this and impossible to maneuver.
