Scarlet Knife,

195 Troy-Schenectady Rd, Latham, NY 12110, United States

"Had Sunday brunch and it was fantastic! Staff is great (especially Pace, thank you!). Very unique menu and everything was delicious. Have to come back to check out the desert room!"

"Scarlet Knife is a beautiful place, upscale feeling, yet I felt relaxed and at home. I had creme brulet French toast served with real maple syrup. It was delicious. The server was attentive but not intrusive. It is totally handicapped accessible but I didn't check out the bathroom. It is a little difficult to find as their signage could be better. There was also live music which was not too loud so conversation was easy."

"Attentive service and lovely space. The dining area is spacious, but it's also somewhat noisy because of the open concept. There was pleasant live music set to a good volume. Dining: - The lamb entree was exceptional and I would recommend giving it a try. - Yucca truffle fries were crispy and fluffy. I think an order is good for sharing with up to 4 people. - Onion soup was pretty good, but it arrived almost room temp... - Lavender mocktail was tasty and refreshing! The dessert room experience is a must if you're looking to wind down in a nice, quiet space. The room features private booths and table-side service. Dessert: - Golden ticket was lovely and decadent. It's enough for two people because it's so rich. - Strawberry fields involved flaming brandy, for fun factor. Tasty! Overall, the wait can be a little long for food and dessert so take your time and relax!"

"This one was right in the middle for me. Short rib was amazingly tender. Rack of lamb was perfect. The shrimp and scallop grits with smoky cheddar was not good at all. It was way too smokey almost artificial smoke flavor. It left a bad taste in my mouth. The lobster Mac and cheese is bland zero taste. The Brussel sprouts in duck fat were good. Staff was awesome chefs were cool. It has a fine dining feel and portion size (very small portions) but not worth the prices. I don’t think I will return. Be warned small portions Now the dessert room is a completely different story. The Campfire song is amazing. The best dessert I ever had. Definitely go just for desserts it’s a whole separate room."

"I like the concept. The menu at face value looks very good but the food was average. They’ve done some very clever things with the space, like the bar, private function/dining room and dessert room. Toilets were also beautiful. But this is a nice place to eat dinner and there’s a TV by the beautiful open kitchen showing the sports games?! Do I want to pay $300 for dinner and drinks while watching the football?! Probably not. Our server was fantastic though. Not sure I’d go back unless we were meeting people there"
