State Street Pizzeria — Restaurant in City of Schenectady

There was a parade and I didn't know that the CDTA bus was rerouted so I was trying to find a place where the bus was because I don't know the area and I don't know any bus stops I just knew that I had to take this certain bus and it was getting cold and dark and I was tired and just had to get home which was a $35 Uber ride so I stopped into this place to go to the bathroom and get something to take home for dinner. I was trying to figure out what to order but I had to pee so bad so I said can I just go to the bathroom before I order and the woman looked at me as though I was going to steal her bathroom and not order some food afterwards which I thought was very weird so I went to the bathroom and I came out and put my stuff on the table to get my money out and try to figure out what I wanted to eat because it goes at the spur of the moment and something in that corner started making me sneeze and I sneezed consistently for the next day and a half and when I say consistently I couldn't even hold a conversation I was literally sneezing constantly which started to make my throat hurt and it was just aggravating I couldn't sleep all night because I kept on either feeling like I had to sneeze or sneezing and I left my food in the Uber when I got home but the guy was nice enough and he brought it back to me so I gave him a $5 tip for bringing my $10 sandwich back to me and I ate that $10 sandwich and I kind of wish I had left it in the Uber and forgot about it because not only was it not good it was just a simple turkey wrap in which they literally had almost none of the toppings that one would get at say like Subway or something but the bread was just stale there was no mayonnaise and mustard on it they had no onions or banana peppers or jalapeno peppers and so the $15 I spent at the pizza place and the $5 I paid to get it back out of the Uber was $20 I will never get back and I will never recoup but even more importantly that day and a half of sneezing is in my mind and now I'm worried about what else is going to go flying up my nose that I didn't ask for it to be there because anything going up my nose is definitely authorized and anything going up at unauthorized is unacceptable. If you know you know. So it was definitely most definitely most most definitely not an establishment I would ever choose to return to again and only if I was starving would I accept it as a free gift of nourishment. It's not nourishment...

After moving back to NY and a long long 18 hour drive, all I wanted was a NY slice to finish the day. I called at 11, I was close by and their schedule says they close at midnight but I figured I’m nearby so it should be ok. When I called and said “order for pickup” I was promptly informed that even though they still had an hour to close “ oh no, we’re not turning the kitchen on. We have a few slices here in the front if you wanna come down and take a look but I’m not turning the grill on”….??! Unacceptable. Honestly, the persons tone was so non chalant and dismissive if picking up an order had been reconciled and they accommodated me. I STILL would not have used my hard earned, during a pandemic, dollars and cents to support them. Shutting things down early is what all restaurants do. But I’d like to think that a kinder “No” would have still left me eager to support this local business. Consider updating your schedule online and not telling your patrons they can have the days scraps in the window because you don’t want to cook....
