| It just doesn't get more classic than Jack's Oyster House. Open since 1913, Jack's is a certifiable Albany institution, attracting New York State politicos and those who just want to get a glimpse of them. Chef Luc Pasquier keeps some of the old standards on the menu, such as Jack's signature calf’s liver with balsamic caramelized onions and crispy bacon while enticing newer customers with dishes such as soft poached tilapia with vanilla lobster sauce and creamy polenta. Just stopping in for a quick bite? Order up a bowl of the legendary Manhattan clam chowder and take a seat at the old bar. It's open 365 days a year, and the drinks are always dependably bracing. |
