A rich 300-year history, a thriving arts community and seemingly endless wilderness make this New York capital city on the Hudson River a great weekend getaway. Outdoor enthusiasts come here to ski, hike, canoe and fish; trout and small-mouth bass fishing is among the best in the U.S. Mountains surround the city, and the tapestry of golds and reds on an autumn day is breathtaking.

History buffs will enjoy the colonial homes, historic churches and museums, and can tour 18th-century mansions, like the Schuyler, a superb example of pre-Revolutionary War architecture.

The sushi/sashimi is always fresh. Ordering mixed plates sushi/sashimi combos brings a nice selection and they are accommodating to one's preferences, e.g. no shellfish. Service is good and they have a nice full bar and some Japanese beers on tap. Bento boxes were enjoyed by others in the party and portion sizes were very good. Consistency is a good thing in restaurants.

Went on a Friday night at 7:00. Large place. Casual Barn-theme. No tablecloths. Steaks were great. baked potato just right. Rye and Pumpernickel bread are part of self-serve salad bar. We did not have salad, but it looked large and fresh if very standard. Nice wine list was a surprise. Large opne space is noisey when full, as it was on a Friday. We will go back, but only on a weeknight.Hi,Thanks for posting such a nice review. We do pride ourselves on the steaks and seafood and we are known for having a very fresh salad bar with both bread and cheese available. The higher open ceilings and all the wood do not always work on the busier nights for controlling the noise. Certain sections of the building are better than others, so definitely ask if you are looking for it to be a quieter spot. Thanks again for posting such a nice, positive review, we truly appreciate it.

Make sure you are literally starving when you get there, seriously. The amount of choices on there cold and hot appetizer stations alone are unbelievably and add to that about a dozen meat selections served right at your table. This is not a Golden Coral salad bar, it has all high quality appetizers. The charcuterie and cheese choices were top of the line as well as the soups and hot sides. Then the show begins when multiple servers bring an array of beef, pork, chicken and seafood choices on swords and carve them to your liking. There is a full bar and many drink specials so we took our servers advice on some fantastic Brazilian cocktails. The desserts are beyond huge and great for sharing. Prices appear a little high($45.00 all you can eat or $25 without the meat) however once you experienced the shear selection of both deals they really are not. Our waitress and servers were incredibly helpful and friendly as was the manager. The place is nice for a couple or an evening with friends.

Its lovely to be greeted with acknowledgement of our anniversary plus 2 glasses of Champagne. Husband had Lobster Bisque, Oysters, Rib eye done a perfect med. rare, & Asparagus which was a little too crisp tender. I had their wonderful she-crab soup,a half salad which had a very tasty vinaigrette dressing, & Salmon which was delicious. We ended our dinner with Key lime Pie, & an order of Sorbet. What better way to celebrate. We normally don't dine on this much food, but it was worth the diet we now have to go on. Accolades to Amanda & Ryan who were very attentive to our every need.Thank you for choosing b&b for your anniversary! We hope to have you as our guests again, soon.

My wife and I enjoyed our recent dining experience at 677 Prime. We arrived early and decided to sit at the bar and enjoy a cocktail before dinner. Our server was personable and friendly and attentive to out needs. Our martinis were perfectly prepared and our NY strip steaks were delicious and cooked medium and medium rare as we requested. We shared a salad and a loaded baked potato but we were too full to consider dessert. Although the prices were on the high side, we will definitely return to 677 Prime whenever we are in the Albany area. Thank you for the review, we're so happy you appreciate the quality and experience!
