    Awesome hot corned beef sandwiches served with chips pickles and a taste of coleslaw. They also have a great French dip. Meat is fresh and tastes homemade. My go to when in Albany.

    After a long day of ice fishing on Lake George, Lucy and I were in need of comfort food. What better place than the Gateway Diner. Although we got "skunked" on the ice, that was not on the menu (good thing or she might have forced me to eat some). Anyway, we both opted for turkey dinners, w soup, drink, and dessert. Comes with stuffing, cranberry sauce and choice of potato or daily vegetable. The turkey and fries were both smothered in delicious gravy, the soup (lentil for Lucy, chicken pastene for me) were both excellent, and the rice pudding was delicious. I've been to many diners in the tri-city area and, IMHO, the Gateway Diner's turkey dinner is the best of the best. Generous portions, good quality, and reasonable. About the only thing missing was a cherry on top of the whipped cream on top of the rice pudding (and I'm sure that I could've gotten one if I asked). Lucy and I both agreed 5 star.
