Taking over the vintage 1960s bar, L’Roca Restaurant + Lounge is bringing Dominican flavor to the storied Elbo Room.

In business for over 90 years, Ralph’s Italian American is a cozy, old-school tavern for club sandwiches, Italian favorites and late night dining.

From the award-winning chefs behind Contra + WildAir in NYC, an upscale, upstate dining retreat complete with chef’s gardens, boulder wrapped fire-pit, their signature creative small plates + impeccable cocktails. (Don’t miss their eclectic flavored ice cream.)

Suwun Thai Home Cooking is the new home of Brooklyn Thai restaurant Ghang Thai Kitchen in the former Cuckoo’s Nest in Albany’s Pine Hills. Upscale but warmly welcome, the menu reads as a best hits of Thai classics with Thai-inspired cocktails in flavors from tamarind to coconut-ginger.
