Here is a link to my review of El Platano in the Albany Times Union.
One thing: El Platano is cash only. Enjoy.

I'd love to read this but can't get the Times website up - do you know if they're having trouble?

I just tried it, and it worked fine.

Roadrunner says Times Union's server is blocking us out up here in Saratoga area. I can't contact them - could you let them know about this?

Sure thing.

They know about the problem, and they are working on it.

I will be dining there this Sunday, looking forward to it! My one concern is that we will have a vegetarian in our dining party. Is the menu vegetarian friendly?

Yes, there are veggie dishes. There is a lentil soup that is vegan, a veggie empanada, nice salads, and a bunch of veggie sides that could probably be put together in some kind of platter with rice and beans. There might be other things I'm not thinking of at the moment. The menu shifts, though, so I would call ahead and ask/request veggie dishes.
The number is 272-3011.
I'd love to hear about your meal.
