Speakeasy 518 at 42 Howard Street, Albany, New York.

This place used to be one of my absolute favorites. Drinks were incredible, service was even better, usually live jazz music, very speakeasy-esque. Went there last night and it seems that it’s under new management. They were playing house music, none of the waiters/bartenders were “in character”, drinks were sub par but the food was still incredible. Disappointed to see this place changing it used to be such an incredible gem in the area.
