About Best Cook

As a Chinese Restaurant, Best Cook offers a variety of standard dishes and notably includes lobster options on their menu. They can be contacted at (518) 356-7978 or +1 518-356-7978.

According to one customer who ordered via a delivery service, their meal, which included a veggie egg roll, vegetable moo shu, lobster chop suey, and veggie fried rice (ordered with egg but received without), was generally "okay" and typical of takeout Chinese food. A positive aspect mentioned was the availability of lobster dishes. However, they noted the absence of common condiments like soy sauce, duck sauce, or mustard in their order, which they had not experienced needing to request from other establishments.

Another customer who got a pickup order found their shrimp lo mein to be very tasty. However, they felt that both the vegetable and shrimp fried rice lacked sufficient vegetables and tasted bland. On a positive note, they mentioned that the portion sizes were huge and expressed a willingness to return to try other items on the menu.

In summary, Best Cook in Altamont is a Chinese Restaurant offering takeout and delivery with some dishes, like the shrimp lo mein, being described as tasty and providing large portions. A notable feature is the availability of lobster dishes. However, some dishes, such as the fried rice, may be bland, and condiments may not automatically be included with orders. It appears to be a typical takeout Chinese restaurant worth considering, especially for those interested in trying their lobster options or who appreciate large portion sizes.

Not my usual go to but they were closed tonight. Ordered via a delivery service and got a veggie egg roll, vegetable moo shu, lobster chop suey, and veggie fried rice. It was okay. It was typical take out Chinese. They deserve credit for having lobster dishes available. The fried rice, that I ordered with egg had no egg. There were NO packets of soy, duck, or mustard in the bag. I have never needed to ask for this at other places.

Got a pick up to go and the food was ready on time. Shrimp lo mein was very tasty. However, I do wish there were more veggies in vegetable and shrimp fried rice. Both dishes tasted bland. But the portions are huge and I would go again to try something else on the menu.

The food was terrible, I ordered general tso and beef chowmein. My general tso was soggy and watery with zero flavor and my beef chowmein was gray and soggy as well. They botched the order and gave me rice instead of noodles and when we called to tell them about it, we were met with the worst customer service I’ve had in a while! The person on the phone was indifferent and dismissive. 100% will never eat there again. Threw the food right in the trash.

Ordered tonite! Soup was room temp and lflavorless. The moo shu pork was missing the hoisin sauce and round wraps. The chicken dishes tasted like over fried batter w little to no chicken. Very disappointed
