Rehearsal dinner in/around Albany

Does anyone have any suggestions on where to have a rehearsal dinner in or around Albany? We're looking for someplace reasonably priced that can accommodate roughly 25-30 people. Thanks!

    We are having our rehearsal dinner at the Gideon Putnam in Saratoga.  We have around the same number of guests coming.  Not sure what the price is per person, but the food is amazing and the venue is beautiful! 

    I have heard that Barcelona on Western Avenue is a nice place to have a rehearsal dinner.  No idea about the price.

    I was going to say  Barcelona also, we are using them! Family friends own it , its very nice good food and they even have rooms upstairs you could use.

    Caffe Italia is another great place! Its smaller but could hold 20-30 parties! (Another family friend owns lol)- This one is on Central Ave in Albany-

    Good luck!

    Barcelona has great food too!  And a pretty roof-top terrace.

    Have you looked into the Van Dyke in Schenectady? Great food! Nice private rooms! Also, they've just renevated most the building, so everything is very beautiful. As a photographer, I shot a small intimate wedding here last summer and the owner was very nice to work with. You'll leave feeling like you're great friends. Another place would be Athos restaurant near Crossgates; they have dining rooms to accomodate parties from 20-80.
    Best of luck in your search!

    we are having ours right at the church in the room they use for church dinners and social events. no cost, no transportation issues once they find the church for the rehearsal. we are ordering food from the Old Daley Inn Catering Co. for around $10 pp.
