On Valentine's Day, the restaurant was found to be very busy with limited menu options and small portions. The quality of the food was average at best, with some dishes being cold or bland. The experience of one patron was particularly disappointing, with incorrect orders, cold food, and arguments with the waiter. Despite the issues, some reviews mentioned friendly staff and good service on non-holiday occasions. There were also positive comments about specific dishes such as the lobster crepes and the creme brûlée. Overall, opinions on the Provence restaurant vary from disappointing Valentine's Day experiences to enjoyable meals on regular days.

Was Cassandra Moore at Provence - Albany a mag?
This restaurant does not accept reservations on open table. Although we made a reservation a month in advance they did not honor it. I complained that they had our info and could have called us to let us know so we could make other arrangements. Only then they agreed to finally seat us. The place is the IT spot right now. Arrive early on Sundays otherwise you may not get seated. The food is home cooked with love. View all feedback.

What Jana Will dislikes about Provence - Albany:
The restaurant was conveniently located for us and the menu looked good. When we arrived they had no means of checking a reservation and didn't have a table ready for us. It took about 15 minutes for anyone to greet our table at all, so we were able to already decide on our dinner by the first time a server talked to us. It then took another 25-30 minutes for our dinner to arrive. We had a Caesar salad, sliders, and... View all feedback.

We went to celebrate Valentines Day and found it very busy. We were seated in a crowded area and found the service to be average. They had a special Valentine's day menu which was limited to just 6 or 8 selections for the appetizer, main course and desserts. Given the limited menu, I thought the food was just average and the portions were rather small. The dinner rolls were cold, the lobster bisque was bland and the fillet and lobster tail (which was extra) came with only 1/2 of the lobster tail. The filet was good, but the food was not very hot. We have tried it twice now on Valentine's day and found it to be mediocre at best both times. Dinner for two with two drinks and tip came to $200.

Very good, however we were there on Valentines Night (we had reservations) with friends who were celebrating their wedding anniversary and the wife ordered the scallop dish and there were a few greens and what appeared to be 1 scallop cut into 3. Her plate literally had only 3 thin slices of scallops and some greens. I shared my meal with her as I had the Filet and lobster tail which came with mashed potatoes. My husband and I have eaten at your restaurant previously when it wasn't a holiday and loved the food. Otherwise the staff were extremely friendly and we had just the right amount of time to enjoy our time together, appetizers through to dessert and coffee.

It took an hour and a half for our appetizer to arrive. Our food came out room temperature. The lobster bisque didn't have chunks of lobster in it. They made it up to us by giving us our bottle of champagne for free. Wouldn't recommend this place. Spend your hard earned money somewhere else.

Hadn’t been here in several years so we thought we’d give it another try. The bartenders working seemed to be annoyed that it was fairly busy. My wife ordered a whiskey sour and he rolled his eyes at her
