Pinhead Susan's

The bar was great, and the owner seemed like a pretty solid dude. I had the scallop and shrimp over pasta. I wasn't too impressed with the scallops. I would have preferred a better sear on them. The plate was fair priced, just not a big wOwZer! The sweet potato fries came highly recommended but they were out. I'm still not sure how I feel about the name of the restaurant, and the story behind it. They have a full page on the back of the menu describing why it is called Pinhead Susan's. I thought the story was pretty dumb and meaningless. I think they should have made up something else, or improved the variations on the menu instead. I'm sure ill be back, if nothing else for the alcohol.

I don't got to Schenectady often just because it feels like it is hours away from Troy and I'm kinda lazy, but I was at Union College watching a hockey tournament and needed food so my parents and I stopped here.  I got a burger with bacon and blue cheese.  It was prepared medium-rare as I requested with lots and lots of bacon.  

Ummm, I don't have much else to say.  It was a good burger.  The waitress was friendly.  I'd stop in again if I was in Schenectady.

Solid selection of microbrews.  Turkey & artichoke melt was fab, and so were the sweet potato fries.  Waitress was on top of things throughout our stay.  We'll totally go back.
