5 Reviews on “Bon Appetit Cafe”
This is a hidden gem, nestled inside what is clearly an office building you would usually visit to see a dentist or an insurance company. There, tucked into a space that was probably once a gift shop, is a delightfully cozy and eclectic grill run by a kind couple.
The falafels are the size of cake donuts. The gyros are delicious, with fresh tzatziki sauce, fresh made hummus, great veggies. The baklava came in paired triangles of heaven. Hand-cut french fries, regular specials, and very reasonable prices make the brief wait absolutely worthwhile.
Sure, there’s no real sign outside. Sure, parking is a huge rando lot, and you almost feel like you are plunging into a 90s corporate labyrinth as you walk into the building. If you show up at noon, rather than 11, you are going to stand there, waiting with the rest of the building’s lunch rush, contemplating “why there is a statuette of Horus next to a statuette of Mary?”
You are going to forget all of that as you luxuriate in the flavors of those fries, as you savor that baklava, as you tuck into that gyro. You’re going to instead ask why you never came here before and when are you coming back.
WOW! The falafel platter is out of this world delicious. The falafel is made to order with the ingredients cut and mixed right in front of you. There are many veggie options for the salad that comes with it, as well as an assortment of dressings. I got only olive oil because I’m basic and at peace with that. Seriously though, the whole platter was amazing!
The woman and man behind the counter were incredibly pleasant and welcoming and kept asking for my preferences because they wanted to make sure I had a good meal.
I can’t wait to go back!
Great little hidden gem that is well worth a visit. This cafe is in an office building. It’s at the far end of the first floor when coming in from Wolf Road. The could who run it could not be more friendly. The falafel and sampler platter are delicious. They have great great leaves – both veggie and meat varieties. The falafel are always made fresh by hand and are truely unique. They also have more traditional lunch foods and serve breakfast. Didn’t miss the baklava. They also do catering. They have a little place to sit across from the cafe. Great value!
I’m totally speechless with this gem. The food was homemade and the array of flavors bursting from their sample platter and chicken gyro was to die for. A must try when in Albany; you have to go!
everything is incredible and so affordable. the owners are the sweetest and gave us grilled eggplant and peppers from their own garden!! good vegan options if you ask for something without dairy and meat. the falafel, hummus, koshari, meats, sauces, grilled veggies…EVERYTHING is full of flavor! + prices are in a previous decade. I would be here everyday if I didn’t live far away.
