Bon Appetit Cafe - Albany

Everything is incredible and so affordable. the owners are the sweetest and gave us grilled eggplant and peppers from their own garden!! good vegan options if you ask for something without dairy and meat. the falafel, hummus, koshari, meats, sauces, grilled veggies…EVERYTHING is full of flavor! prices are in a previous decade. I would be here everyday if I didn’t live far away.

I'm totally speechless with this gem. The food was homemade and the array of flavors bursting from their sample platter and chicken gyro was to die for. A must try when in Albany; you have to go!

Great little hidden gem that is well worth a visit. This cafe is in an office building. It's at the far end of the first floor when coming in from Wolf Road. The could who run it could not be more friendly. The falafel and sampler platter are delicious. They have great great leaves both veggie and meat varieties. The falafel are always made fresh by hand and are truely unique. They also have more traditional lunch foods and serve breakfast. Didn't miss the baklava. They also do catering. They have a little place to sit across from the cafe. Great value! Vegetarian options: Great vegetarian selection. Dietary restrictions: They are willing to accommodate dietary restrictions. Parking: Lots of parking in the lot. Kid friendliness: Great for the whole family. Wheelchair accessibility: Step free access.

What a find! Incredible hospitality and wonderfully fresh food. We arrived at 11am and they made the falafel and grape leaves from SCRATCH right in front of us! It’s inside the office building so don’t panic when you can’t find it at first.

This is a hidden gem, nestled inside what is clearly an office building you would usually visit to see a dentist or an insurance company. There, tucked into a space that was probably once a gift shop, is a delightfully cozy and eclectic grill run by a kind couple. The falafels are the size of cake donuts. The gyros are delicious, with fresh tzatziki sauce, fresh made hummus, great veggies. The baklava came in paired triangles of heaven. Hand-cut french fries, regular specials, and very reasonable prices make the brief wait absolutely worthwhile. Sure, there 's no real sign outside. Sure, parking is a huge rando lot, and you almost feel like you are plunging into a 90s corporate labyrinth as you walk into the building. If you show up at noon, rather than 11, you are going to stand there, waiting with the rest of the building 's lunch rush, contemplating why there is a statuette of Horus next to a statuette of Mary? You are going to forget all of that as you luxuriate in the flavors of those fries, as you savor that baklava, as you tuck into that gyro. You 're going to instead ask why you never came here before and when are you coming back.
