What People Are Saying About Jillian's

The Scene – "Jillian's is a complete dining and entertainment megaplex!" proclaimed corporate flyers when the national chain made its first forays into the Albany market. Local legislators were so enthused that they rewrote a bunch of zoning laws quick-like so the club could hang its hat in the middle of Albany's business district. The result has been urban renewal.

Not all its cracked up to be

Jillians is a two out of five at best. the dj doesnt play the best mix of songs, the bouncers wont let you dance with gurls after a certain time claiming he's kin, sometimes the bar tenders dont know how to make a particular drink in a certain area. jillians is good if you simply need to get out of the house i guess, but i mean its not poppin like that. gurl to guy ratio is bout 1 to 3.5 and most gurls out already have a dude. pool downstairs is coo, but noone really goes down there after 9 pm, so thats a bust if youre trying to have a session downstairs thats relaxed wit a couple of people. maybe its because im from a city thats always crackin, but albany has minimal to offer; perhaps thats y the reviews have been a bit "lenient"

This place is awesome from the adult arcade with bar downstairs to your regular tavern type restaurant and billards on the main floor and the dance floor upstairs! I love this place! What's great is you can fit like any occasion to it. They even have kid's parties! Its a huge building too so you dont feel crowded in or anything either.
- Pros: exciting
- Cons: parking
Just Right!

This is a great place to grab a casual light fare. talk with friends. Place some billiards or unwind in the game room. Nice for first dates or double dating as it has enough things to do to break the ice without the stress of overdoing romance.
Stll better for familys into sports and games because it has what your looking for: Eat ,drink, watch tv(sports)and play(pool or game room)!
- Pros: roomy, fun, woman
- Cons: menu
