If you like trivia as much as I do, I recommend you to come down & have a great time from 7 to 9 Wednesday night for trivia with Laurie Hannon. You won't be disappointed!!!“

“A true neighborhood bar. Great staff that attracts a wonderful group of local regulars. Friendly, open, caring, supportive. Impressive. Great events from time to time as well. 5k road race, kegs n eggs, chili competition. All while raising some funds for some worthy local causes. Like hockey? Never imagined such a thing, but this is truly a hockey bar! Come and enjoy.“

“I found this restaurant while looking for a different one down the street. This was the best mistake I have ever made. The food is absolutely delicious. The rice with beef stew and Tostones is the best I have ever had( sorry Mom). My wife and I started going there frequently whenever we visited the casino nearby however after about a dozen visits we started going for the food alone. Yes it is that good. I was raised on spanish food and have had many varieties of the servings they offer but the Chef at Sol Karibe is by far the best spanish food I have ever had. I give them 5 Delicious stars and highly recommend this place.“

“The money was worth it since we got so much from our visit. Next time I may check out the two art museums as well. Parking was close and free, which was a nice bonus. Since Main Street isn't far, there are plenty of restaurants nearby but nothing to eat inside the museums“

“Went to play pool on our bdays with daughter n son in law. There were alot of people there but not uncomfortably overcrowded. The age range was vast, from young to old. We did not have to wait at all for a table to play on. There was a DJ that play a wide variety of music that kept everyone happy. Staff was friendly and fast. There was no waiting at bar for a drink“

“As always, The Student Prince is a very authentic and tasty German food experience. Giant pretzels that are actually good, fantastic schnitzel, crispy brussel sprouts, great selection of german beers. We also got the duck special with the cheesy Spätzle. I hope they make that side a permanent addition (and the duck). Waitress was also very friendly. overall a great experience. We will be back despite living 2 hrs away.“

“Great atmosphere, staff very attentive, & amazing music.“

“I've been going to the Delaney House for over 20 years. The food is excellent. The dress code has evolved over the years into a more casual environment which is better in my opinion because sometimes I just want to enjoy their food without needing to dress up like I'm going to walk the red carpet. When they initially reopened after closing during the pandemic the place was a hot mess. I thought maybe there were new owners. I was nervous that they were doomed to go out of business at that point because the menu was so limited, all the best dishes were missing! Thankfully, they endured, and 2 years later the restaurant is slowly returning to it's former glory albeit their hours are odd and non-competitive with other restaurants. Luckily, the food is still amazing. My only constructive complaints are that they got rid of the baked stuffed shrimp despite it being one of the most requested items from their old menu. Every time I visit the restaurant I ask and I am always told people constantly ask for it but they only offer it on limited holidays now. That's a poor business decision not to carry something that your customers ask for all the time. The tap water they serve has always been chlorinated over the past 20+ years. I don't drink tap water when I'm there but they always provide a glass of water and it's always disgusting. They used to have us fill out surveys at the end of our meals and for many years I told them to put a filter on their water line. I hope they don't cook in that water, it tastes like pool water. They do offer Saratoga bottled water as an alternative but that doesn't change the fact that their tap water is abhorrent. I am glad they brought back whipped butter which is fantastic because for awhile they were only giving cold butter with their popovers which did not spread right so it essentially caused the popover to fall apart as your tried to spread a brick of cold butter on it. For awhile their popovers were half the size that they used to be and they were often burnt. Recently the popovers seem to be cooked perfectly and that's a plus. They will occasionally bring back lobster tails that you can order as an extra side for your meal, they seem to only do this on special occasions which is rather obnoxious considering they used to always offer it on their menu. They got rid of the sorbet that they would serve you between dishes, I was so used to them serving that that I was saddened when they stopped doing it. Reaching the restaurant by phone is a hot mess now. You used to be able to call the restaurant and get someone right away to speak with, I am not of a fan of their new automated system that makes it near impossible to reach someone. They now take reservations through a third party and that's fine but I would rather speak to someone at the restaurant because I like to reserve specific locations to sit when I go there ie: the summit room and or the library. If you go on a busy day you might get stuck in the main dining room and it's too loud in there for me. They have a bar area inside called "The Mick" which has its own separate menu and I always thought that was strange because they use the same kitchen. Back when the manager Colette was there she used to let me get both menus and order some dishes off of both menus. Each menu had great stuff on them. I always thought it was absolutely redudant to have two different menus in the same restaurant and to only allow the customers to order from a particular menu if they sat in a specific area of the restaurant. I've ran businesses for decades, just combine the menus and let the customers have a better variety to choose from. That's another example of a lingering business opportunity for them. Overall, they have made a lot of improvements, the food is consistently professional grade chef cuisine and that is their saving grace and it is why I continue to return. Their customer service is typically always amazing with the exception of the occassional new host t“

“The food is fine, but it's a little odd from your normal pub fare. The buffalo chicken panini was small and not very flavorful, but the poutine fries I subbed in as a side were plentiful. However, the use of fried cheese curds in the dish was a bit of a head scratcher. They were crispy but too salty, and I missed the traditional melty cheese poutine usually has. The prices are also way too expensive for what is offered. They're clearly banking on being the only place around the hotel open for dinner. The staff was friendly.A note of caution - the hand sanitizer smells disgusting. Bring your own.“

“Excellent atmosphere, staff and food.“

“Ron is a great bat tender. Good personality, and very attentive. Onion rings good, but people don't go there for the food. They probably loose a lot of business by locking the front door and having people go to the back, which is not easily found, and there is no sign,plus it's dark and doesn't seem safe. It makes no sense, because a robber would prefer the back door.“

“Awesome place to relax and have an adult beverage and something great to eat! My favorite is the Ebenezer, a grilled cheese and burger with sautéed onions! Tremendous!! Everyone here is your friend! *****“

“Ok...apparently in 2014 I left a negative review of Nathan Bill Restaurant. Well, I hope to set the record straight. Tonight my husband and I had dinner there on the lovely patio. First, Annalise (I think that was her name) was our waitress and she was very attentive and sweet. We enjoyed a mountain of nachos that was enough for four people. I had a mule and my husband had a summer ale. I had the swordfish scampi and salad that actually had real greens. My husband had fish and chips and the fries were crispy. We were too full for anything more. All in all, we will go back and I highly recommend this neighborhood restaurant.“

“Our waiter was great! I wish I remembered his name.“

“The bartender Fox is very friendly and provides excellent service.“

“The food was phenomenal and the service was great. Definitely a good amount of food. Sarah was exceptional.“

“Very good service. Great atmosphere.“

“I didn’t think it was possible, but the chicken Milanese grinder is better than ever!! and of course, the tricolor salad, always amazing. The delicious Cosmo, Peroni on draft and our wonderful server Gina made it a great night. Thank you!“

“Ivory billiards has always been five stars in my book! However, I’m really bummed that they’re not open during the day anymore on the weekends. I would love to be able to bring my son down there and teach him how to play pool. It’s not really appropriate for a 15-year-old at night though. That’s my only complaint. I’ve been shooting pool there since I was a teenager and I haven’t been there in a while… But I was thinking about taking my son down and just noticed that now you guys don’t open till six. In the winter, especially, I wish this something you would reconsider!“

“We went there for the first and absolutely loved it. It is everything you want in an upscale pub. The food & drinks were awesome and surprisingly reasonably priced. The staff were helpful and friendly; it all around had a great vibe. We will definitely be back!“

“This was my first time there. I loved it. The waiter was awesome, the food excellent, and the atmosphere was great. I was listening to the people around me - apparently the cocktails are wonderful as well!“

“Beautiful place amazing employees and amazing food totally recommend!“

“Best sea food! Delicious ♥️“
