1st time here. Atmosphere was pleasant, the decor reminded me of Las Vegas with its Hollywood theme. Great and friendly service, food was excellent. I will definitely be back.

Awesome food!!! When shopping in Crossgates Mall and looking for a good bite to eat without having to look all over creation to find something, The Standard is it!!!

Reubens are good, coleslaw is served on the sandwich, unless requested on the side. Grilled salmon was crispy and light, asparagus was seared and crisp. Open late. Sam Adams seasonal on draft.

Try the farfalle with mushrooms and chicken. The sun-dried tomatoes, mushrooms, peas, and a dash of chopped walnuts and parmesan combine for an earthy, creamy dish that is surprisingly complex.

The oven baked goat cheese is too die for but big for one. It's a tomato cream soup with warm goat cheese in the middle. Comes with grilled bread to dunk in.
