Gene's Fish Fry - Rensselaer

I’m eagerly anticipating the opening of Gene's. I’m not sure where the critics are coming from, but every dish I tried was fantastic. No one else serves fries or onion rings quite like Gene's. Your tartar sauce is the best I’ve ever tasted. To the critics, maybe keep your opinions to yourselves. Thank you!

A classic spot in Albany (located in East Greenbush). The scallop reels are outstanding—some of the best I've had outside of the Cape. They have a similar taste to the shells. It's affordable, quick, and convenient for a meal on the go. I recommend going early, around 7 or 8.

Excellent food and service. Beautiful view overlooking the albany skyline. Gets better every year!

This is a classic spot to enjoy a delicious burger or fish roast. The portions are on the smaller side, so it’s best to consider it more of a snack than a full meal. Keep in mind that they're only open for the season, so be sure to visit before summer ends. Well done!

The place is an institution. The food is good quality. The fries taste like they are made from russet potatoes. Haddock is great. Clams are tender. Onion rings are a treat. And I always get a mocha shake. Friendly people and no wait if you get there early. Nice picnic tables and pretty hanging baskets of flowers.
