A big shout out to the owner, managers, and staff for accommodating our gang of 22 for my son's 30th birthday bash! The food was outstanding, many gluten free options, and the service was excellent! I highly recommend Maxims! Thanks again all!

As a lifelong resident of Schenectady and being of Italian heritage, the dishes here are consistently executed with skill. Unfortunately (for me) I have celiac and cannot partake in many of the Italian staples I grew up on. Cornell’s has gone above and beyond to amend the dishes they can to ensure they are gluten free and to boot they offer the best GF bread I have ever had. Highly recommend.

I have visited this establishment on a couple of different occasions and it is an extremely inconsistent experience! My colleagues really love the food so we keep going back, but, they pay a different amount each week for the same meal.... They have also messed up their orders a couple of times (ex: paid extra for gluten free bread, didn't get it) and eventhough my colleagues keep going here because they are creatures of habit they have never received any type of compensation eventhough it was the establishments mistake and they paid extra. Something like a free drink or a $1 -$2 off next time would go a long way in good customer service, instead they tell my colleague she should have brought the sandwich back to have it remade. This would be a major inconvenience and we usually dont have a long enough lunch break to do all that nonsense. Additionally, I've tried to get an iced coffee or iced latte from here on a couple of different occasions. I just asked for a flavoring in my iced coffee/latte or I asked for one of the specials on the board and I've received drip coffee and paid $4-$7 with no flavoring or any type of milk. Its just frustrating to pay for something and not get way you expect from, and it's a constant gamble at this establishment in my experience.

We had my sister’s bridal shower at the City Squire and I cannot say enough good things about this place. Aaron and his team were friendly, accommodating and so pleasant to do business with. The food was fantastic (and there was SO much left over to take home) and Aaron did such an amazing job at accommodating our guests with gluten and nut allergies. The banquet menu offered so much as well, and the event space was absolutely stunning. It is the perfect combination of modern elegance and rustic charm. There is even access to the upper patio from the event space. If you are searching for a place to have an event in the Schenectady area, I highly recommend the City Squire! Our guests have been raving about it ever since the shower! You cannot go wrong here.

AMAZING! I’ve been meaning to write this review since September when I was visiting my parents in Schenectady, NY. They heard of this new vegan restaurant and I’m so glad we tried it. We went on a Saturday right when they opened at 3:00pm and our server Megan was the best! She was friendly and had the best recommendations. This place is great for EVERYONE. I’m vegetarian myself and went with meat-eaters (one who is picky and Gluten Free), and we all loved our food. We had the Everything Fries, Beyond Burger, Jalapeño Cornbread Hush Puppies, Southwest Chicken Egg Rolls, Loaded Grilled Cheese (GF), and one of their rotating specialty cakes - Salted Caramel Chocolate (GF) which was so moist and delicious! Drinks are great, and the atmosphere is awesome. Lots of retro arcade games and an upBEET vibe... 😜👾💥🎮 WE WILL BE BACK!
