Flavor is always spot on. I enjoy their dinner menu tremendously as well as the brunch menu. The salmon latkes really are delicious and is well deserving of its Beat Bobby Flay title. The vegetarian risotto was one of the best risottos I’ve ever had in a restaurant. Perfectly seasoned with amazing flavors of the mushroom and great combination of textures for a wonderful bite. For brunch I love the bennies and the cocktails, though some of them are a bit strong. Still would rather have it too strong than too weak so it’s all good 👌🏻I would recommend making a reservation in advance definitely for weekends.
Decided to check this place out for Valentine’s Day, because they were having a special that costs about $36 per person for a three-course meal.
For my starter, I got the citrus salad. It blew me away, consisting of slices of orange, grapefruit, blood orange, pistachios, and kalamata olives in a honey vinaigrette with a dash of chili oil. It was clean, sweet, and bright, despite the bitterness of the blood orange and grapefruit slices. Loved absolutely everybody bite of it, savoring it as long as I could. As a side note, you wouldn’t think that kalamata olives would go with something like that, but the sweetness of the honey almost completely tamed the salty brine of the olives. It was a delightful experience overall.
For my main entree, I had the scallops with braised white beans, house pancetta, preserved lemon, and parsley. The scallops were perfectly cooked, moist, tender, and sweet with every bite. Bite. The braised white beans that the scallops sat upon were a lovely addition and their mild flavor was beautifully complimented with the house pancetta and lemon. I remember slowing my eating pace to ensure I enjoyed every single bite.
For dessert, I got the orange cannolis. They were bite-sized, and had candied orange flavored dust sprinkled on the ends of the cannoli. Great compliment to the cannoli flavor. If there’s any critique I could give this dessert, is that I was missing a little bit of texture that chocolate chips would have provided in the cannoli cream. Plus the chocolate would have complimented the orange nicely. Other than that, it was a pretty great dessert.
Overall, this was a wonderful first experience, and a fantastic deal to introduce newcomers to the restaurant. Restaurant. As a side note, this used to be New World Bistro, but it seems like the restaurant owners shifted direction to focus more on local farm to table fare, and I think it was a great choice in the current food industry.
Delicious locally sourced food. Corn fritters, mussels, pork ribs, chard/escarole with lemon, Chef’s dessert with Maple. Nice but expensive wine list. Great service from Steve. Relaxed atmosphere.
Magical dishes fly out of Chef Brower’s hat at the New World Bistro in Albany.
Pictured: Gnocchi – Handmade Italian potato dumplings – a light and excellent dish. Pizza Fritta – Straciatella, tomato, and oregano, topped with an anchovy – melts in your mouth. Wild Maine Mussels – Red wine, Mirepoix, Herbs and Grilled Bread – the broth was amazing for bread dipping. Also pictured is a Juice Bomb IPA by Sloop Brewing.

We ordered corn fritter, rigatoni, and fried chicken. All are amazing!!!!! Staff is very friendly. Only thing is the portion of entree is not as big as the size of other American restaurants. But would definitely come back!
