Brick House Pizza and Grille has moved to
a new location at 54 Clifton Country Road in
Clifton Park.
The restaurant, previously located at 5 Clifton
Country Road, re-opened with an upgraded
menu and customer service. The restaurant
opened in its new location in October.
“Brick House is very different now,” said
manager Erika Schreifels. “We needed a fresh
start.”
The eatery needed several improvements,
said Schreifels, which was the motivation
behind seeking out a new location.
“Our parking at the old location was horrible.
Even at 5 p.m., our customers couldn’t
find parking.”
The new facility has a larger parking lot,
and has an indoor capacity of 200 people.
There is a large bar area which seats 21 people.
The bar features 14 drafts on tap, as well as a
large television wall. There are also two large
seating areas, which have a family-oriented
atmosphere.
The restaurant also has an outside dining
area with a bar, deck and patio that will be
used extensively in the summer.
The menu was completely revamped,
Schreifels said. At the previous location, the
focus was on selling dinner entrées. The new
approach features a more pub-style menu,
including burgers, appetizers and more. The
staff tested several new dishes and had people
choose their favorites to put on the new menu.
“One of the new dishes is our eggplant
parmesan stack,” said Schreifels. “We coat
the eggplant in panko bread crumbs with a
housemade sauce. We sell 50 of those a week.
And many people are ordering our appetizers
as an entrée. So they will order the eggplant
stack with some pasta and that is their meal.”
Schreifels said one of her favorite menu
items is a sandwich named the Sweet Ana,
after her daughter. It is a turkey sandwich with
apples and cranberry mayonnaise. She also is a
big fan of their chicken wings. “Our wings are
out of this world.”
John Lee and Chuck Brady are the head
chefs. The restaurant will be hosting bands
throughout the winter, as well as featuring
various specials on the menu.
Schreifels has bachelor’s degree in marketing
and management and worked at the previous
location.
