Best Contemporary French Restaurants in Albany

Perfect French comfort food done with flair and flavor. Been a few times and does not disappoint.

I always order the excellent omelette, it’’s fresh and light and perfectly paired with frites and salad.

Celebrated our anniversary at O - and we enjoyed every moment of it. From personalized menus, to the attention of the staff and quality of the food. We had a 9 course meal and it took us from 7 pm to 10.30 pm to go through all of the portions. The portions are small l but by the end we were full - even though I skipped a lunch before coming there. The restaurant gave us a small cake at the end of the meal to mark the special occasion but we had to get it to go as we were full.

Service is outstanding as well as the Branzino with vegetables. Waiter was friendly, courteous and quick on checking with us. Little waiting time to receive the meal. Ambience is intimate.

We had the SF restaurant week menu on a weekday evening. It was wonderful! Although the choices were modest all the food was really well done. The salmon tandoori was actually creamy and nicely spiced. The butter chicken was “butter chicken” but the kofta sauce made from several vegetables was very interesting and spicy the way we like it. A dessert of kulfi with berries was a real treat. We had ordered extra duck samosa appetizers thinking we might need a bit more food but they were not needed although excellent. I especially want to call out the bartenders and wait people who couldn’t have been nicer or more accommodating. Great experience!
