$7 for $15 Worth of Food & Drink @ Best Western 1228 Grill & Bar

The 1228 Grill & Bar is one of Albany’s best kept little secrets - the unassuming restaurant is part of the Best Western Sovereign Hotel. Located right in the heart of the capital region it continues to delight the hotel’s visitors and local residents alike with its American style cuisine.

Taking culinary themes from around the world and combining them with American staples, the 1228 Grill & Bar offers a variety of delicious dishes that cater to all palates. Lovingly prepared and elegantly presented, the portions are generous and the prices very reasonable.

The Chicken Alaska sauteed chicken breast topped with crabmeat and Swiss cheese drizzled in white wine garlic sauce) and Monte Cristo sandwich (thinly sliced ham, turkey and Swiss layered on white bread, dipped in egg batter and finished on a hot buttered griddle, dusted with confectionary sugar and garnished with raspberry jelly) are both particular favorites.

As you’d expect from a restaurant linked to a hotel, the service is exemplary. The courteous and knowledgeable staff are quick to welcome you and are always on-hand to offer suggestions and ensure your meal is both enjoyable and memorable. The 1228 Grill & Bar is also a pleasant place to unwind over cocktails with friends or that special someone.
