Italian restaurants, sub shops, calzone counters and Italian delis sit next to the pizzerias on this site because most of them bake pizza too, often from the same dough. Full-service Italian restaurants take reservations for dinner, add a tip line for table service (15-20% is customary) and usually run a cheaper lunch menu on weekdays. Sub and sandwich shops are counter-order and quick, with sizes by the inch or in half and whole lengths. Calzones and strombolis are priced like a medium pizza and are large enough to share. Italian delis and bakeries sell by weight and by the piece, and many close mid-afternoon.
The business lists hours on 2 days of the week. Typical hours are 9 AM–8 PM. As with most places, expect changes around holidays; the phone number below is the fastest way to confirm. The listed phone number is (518) 377-9800. Many businesses also reply to text messages on the same number if it is a cell phone. More information is available on its website, perrecas.com.

Schenectady is in New York, in the Northeast, where four distinct seasons shape local life: hot humid summers, snowy winters that can close businesses for a day, and a dense pattern of towns where walking, transit and street parking all matter. US addresses list the street number and name, then the city, state abbreviation and ZIP code, and Schenectady follows the same pattern; a suite or apartment number such as Ste 200 refers to a unit inside the building. The map link on this page shows the exact spot.

We didn't enjoy the meal here. The garlic bread was less than famous. (That's what it says on the menu) If you're going to claim fame it better be darn good! Our shared Cesar salad was just ok.My husband enjoyed the spaghetti and meatballs but my chicken marsala was terrible. Watered down, no seasoning at all. It tasted like they added brown gravy to the marsala sauce. Without going into any detail, they really need to put a little more effort into cleaning. I will say that the waitress was friendly and attentive.

I've always wanted to visit More Perreca's on Jay St. I've heard so much about the restaurant and especially the bakery, Perreca's, located right next door. The businesses are located a couple of blocks from the gateway marking the entrance to Schenectady's Little Italy. So much history, food and romance in this neighborhood. We had Sunday brunch at More Perreca's. The bakery is closed on Sunday but I got a Sausage Lettuce Tomato sandwich served on toasted Perreca's bread. It was so delish. The Italian sausage was served with lettuce, tomato, roasted garlic puree, mayo and side salad. Everything was so fresh. My $11 meal was reasonably priced. The garlic purée was amazing. They need to bottle it. I'd buy some. My friend had the Mac and cheese and an espresso martini. He loved both. Rachelle was our server. She was wonderful. Very helpful. She explained some of the menu to me because there were a number of Italian sausage dishes. The food was prepared quickly which was great because we were hungry. Rachelle came back later to check on us. I gave her a thumbs up and a smile while busily chewing a bite of sandwich. The restaurant is charming with nice tin ceilings and big windows to l

I had lunch at 2:30 on a friday. The architecture and people of the place is what I was looking for. The old crowd the tin ceilings the music it was me. The server was attentive and was able to full fill my request within the scope of my request. This was my first time eating there and I had the spaghetti and meat balls with garlic bread. The spaghetti was cooked perfectly and the sauce was tasty but I felt it didn't have that special old Italian flavor. Maybe it was missing the arm hair. The meatballs were big but a bit too soft for me. Overall a fine experience. The food is only 3 star rated due to me having only eaten the 1 dish so far.

Good cocktails, good service, nice atmosphere. I had the Chilean sea bass, which was tasty but maybe not the best choice for me since I've never had it before and it was also my first visit to this restaurant. Overall, pleased with the experience but for me the food was a little lacking for the price. Others in my party were happy with their meals.

In my visit there, I was very much happy with the service and the food were just great! Loved the attitude of the hosts there and it was efficient! Although it was lunch time but when we requested, they prepared a dinner menu for us! Loved that! There were plenty on street parking for free at my time of visit! They had a bakery next door but it was closed at the time. Else, we would have explored a little more. This was the first time I saw little Italy in Schenectady!
