If you’re a salmon lover like me, Wellington’s should be an Albany must-visit. A+
Service was lacking. Long wait for greeting and drinks after seating given it was a half empty restaurant when we arrived. Waitress had to be reminded to refill waters more than once. Didn’t check on us to see if everything was ok till well after the food was delivered – at which point there was no point in complaining. They hadn’t cleared the table before dessert was brought out and that person seemed surprised that there wasn’t room on the table for the desserts and annoyed with me for pointing it out when they tried to cram the pie plates amid our dinner and serving plates.
The drinks were worse. Heavy handed pours and sloppy mixes that tasted like regret. I was not sipping a cocktail, I was playing roulette. One drink hit like three and it was not fun, it was alarming. When your “signature” starts feeling like a liability, that is not a vibe, that is a warning label.
Service was also all over the place. I was passed around between four different people including the bartender. No consistency, no ownership, no clue who is responsible for anything. At the end of the night you are not leaving a tip, you are donating to confusion.
This place should be called Wellington’s because you will be well in time to leave. Not coming back.
I recently visited hoping for a decent meal but was thoroughly disappointed by both the food quality and the overall atmosphere. Even by Albany standards, the prices here do not match the mediocre quality delivered.
The dining experience started poorly with the main course. I ordered the burger, priced at $19, and it had a distinct and very off-putting bitter, burnt taste. The char on the patty was completely overwhelming, making the dish nearly inedible.
The appetizer was equally perplexing. The charcuterie board was strange and felt poorly curated. It featured odd components like pickled zucchini and squash, which certainly don’t belong on a classic board. More critically, the meats tasted low-quality and old. The salami was reminiscent of cheap low-grade sandwich meat, the prosciutto was noticeably dry, and the selection felt confused with the inclusion of chorizo. This plate, in particular, did not reflect the price point or the expectation of fresh ingredients.
The only saving grace was the buffalo wings, which were simply alright—nothing special enough to merit a return visit.
Beyond the menu, the restaurant itself feels rundown. The furniture is in dire need of repair; the fake leather on the chairs was peeling like crazy, creating a noticeably worn and unprofessional look. Between the poor execution of the food and the tired atmosphere, this establishment is significantly overpriced for what it offers. I cannot recommend it.
The Cubano Mac n Cheese was so flavorful with shredded pickles on top. If I had only one meal left in my life to eat, this would be it.
Then we got the Cod and Shrimp and it was amazing. The sauce really set it off. We dug into it so fast that I only got a picture halfway through eating it.
We loved the atmosphere and decor. It was a great place to bring my mom to.
