Restaurants in Ballston Spa

“From the minute we stepped in we were greeted with enthusiasm! The owner made sure to tell us in detail about what our options were to choose from as theres a lot there, and sold us on the roast beef! Our sandwhiches were made in less then 4minutes and we were told to sit, enjoy, pay later! It was the BEST roast beef on a hardroll Ive ever had and I'm overall impressed with how much was there from desserts to hot foods like meatballs and pulled pork to muffins. I wanted to get it all but I'll be back for sure. 5*”

“Great food and friendly service.”

“Hands down the best restaurant around Saratoga county! The 5star service to the amazing food and love that they always have a couple amazing vegetarian options . Ohh and the dessert ! Best around by far! Love love love Next Door Kitchen”

“Just an all-around great establishment. Great beer, great pizza, great people. Shoutout to Larry, Kiersten, Maddie, Rj, Maria, and the rest of the crew - thank you for a great visit every time🍻”

“This is one of our absolute favorite places. Our first time in was just about a week after they opened and We couldn't have been more pleased with the amazing food and wonderful service!”

“Chicken Schwarma over rice was fantastic! The menu truly has something for everyone. Can’t wait to go back 😊”

“Great atmosphere Food was awesome Customers were friendly Loved seeing Kate❤️great childhood memories lol”

“Great food, friendly service Support local”

“If you are looking for good home cooked meals, a cozy & homey environment please check out Mom & Pop's Cafe & Catering I tried their Chicken noodle soup and I didn't want to leave a drop. I also tried their Cranberry orange muffin. This muffin was bursting with flavor right down to the last crumb. The staff are super friendly and attentive. The owners Kaila & Steve come out and check on the customers not just the waiting staff. The customers clearly know who Kaila and Steve are as they speak. The environment is clean, well kept, beautiful and makes you feel at home. The tables are set up for sets of 2, 4 & 6 but can easily be pushed together for more. There is a salad & pastry section for those who would like a quick snack for to go. The location is easy to get to and easy to see from the road. They may be the new owners but things are looking smooth from what I saw.”

“Great little place in downtown Balston Spa! Authentic and delicious Mexican food - very reasonable prices, fresh & homemade... Had a great lunch there this past fall :-)”

“Everybody is always so friendly and the food is freaking amazing”

“Such a cute place! My husband and I love coming here. There are so many coffee, espresso and tea drinks to choose from. It's neat that there's a grab and go area too!”

“Another great time & excellent food. This year 22 of my friends met for our annual end of boating season get together. Amazing food big helpings. Awesome job to Steve Grace Emily & Andrew. Perfect drinks also.”

“I have been getting the same omelet every Sunday for the last 6 years, and will continue to do so indefinitely. Ribbon catered my wedding in May '24, and long before then they were practically family. This is the best place in Ballston Spa for more than just king Kev's cooking. Wonderful little place filled with happy people always with a smile on their face and a plate of something spectacular always on the way to a table. and that's not even mentioning why Kevin started the place and all the victims of breast cancer he's helped. 💗 love y'all 5 stars is hardly enough.”

“Omg after three years of living in Charlton and many pizza places we have tried since moving out here none hit the bar till we found this place the sauce dough and the customer service hit all of it! Second time in a week having pizza!”

“They make the best bake goods. Can’t find anything I would not recommend. Love to go to the shop.”

“Delicious bread and bagels and other things”

“Finally, a bakery where "healthy" and "delicious" aren't mutually exclusive This local gem crafts the most amazing treats that are perfect whether you're watching your sugar or just want to indulge mindfully. Britt, the mastermind behind these heavenly creations, has figured out how to make treats that are both good FOR you and good TO you! Hey Britt, since you've mastered the art of crafting guilt-free goodies, any chance you could whip up a batch for a sweet, single guy with muscles and a beard? You know, the kind who rescues puppies, knows how to bake, and actually texts back? Make him with a dash of dad jokes and a sprinkle of adorkable? Asking for a friend… 😉 5 stars ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Isla can bake! My family and I purchased a few delicious bites and my Dad still cannot stop raving about the Mocha Choco Latte Brownie. I personally loved the fruit tartlets! We went to a farmers market the next day for some baked goods but nothing compared to the delicious items from Isla's Divine Desserts. We will be back!”

“Just ordered a sugar free apple pie for my diabetic friend…she loves this pie hands down, more than any SF she’s consumed! I’m surprising her tomorrow with the pie in tow…I will now be her best favorite friend in the whole world!!!🥰🇺🇸 Thank you Zack and team!!!!💕”

“You go in as a stranger and leave as a friend. Really nice people.”

“I was passing through saw this groovy place decided to stop in. Very happy I did. The coffee was great, their bagels were delicious and the staff were excellent. I will always make this place a must stop whenever I am in the area.”

“Went to Mi CASA this evening with my husband and daughter. The food was absolutely the BEST!!!!! The service was phenomenal as well. From the moment we entered the door, we were greeted by smiles and the smell of TRUE Mexican food. Bella was extremely professional and accommodating, especially with my 2 year old daughter. We will definitely be back again in the future! FIVE STARSSSS ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“A+++++ i got the restaurant week meal tonight, they give you a whole casserole dish of deliciously crispy arancini! The chicken portofino was three portions stacked with chicken, mushrooms, red peppers, cheese and prosciutto! (took 2 portions home) We were so full that our waitress kindly offered to package our bread pudding to go, three separate containers one for the pudding, one for the sauce and another for the fresh whipped cream. Can't beat the staff, so helpful and everyone's constantly waiting on people and the decor is so cute and homey! Check out Ripe Tomato this week or any time.”

“I was in from out of town and looking for a couple of slices for lunch. The garlic knot reviews got me to stop and I'm glad I did. Large slices, excellent knots and couple of really great priced lunch specials. Well done all the way around!”

“Always delicious and love the atmosphere with games and added bathrooms”

“I will never eat here again I ordered their afternoon tea. A plain salad plate which consisted of greens two slices of cucumber and shredded carrots, a cup of soup and I wanted a scone. They were out of scones so I reluctantly agreed to a piece of cake. When I saw they charged me 29 I spoke to the manger explaning my complaint. She refused to acknowledge that the meal was overpriced for what I had. The waitress never stated there was an upcharge. Had I gotten a sandwich I would feel different but for what I got the price was waaay out of proportion. Never never never eating here again.”

“I was craving Onion Rings and a Google search provided Juicy Burgers as an option. Since I was nearby at Stewart's, I decided to give them a try. The onion rings were just what I wanted, crispy and hot. No soggy onions or rings here. They're fast food onion rings, nothing fancy and not much of a 'wow' factor. If you need onion rings quick, give Juicy Burgers a try, I don't think you'll be disappointed. As for their other offerings, I can't really say, I just stopped in for onion rings.”

“Unique decor with tin tiles and an old school, classic feel. you can tell that they are foodies by the way they compose dishes and the cocktails are excellent. It is generally busy. I can usually find a seat for two, but I would call ahead especially for more than two people. This is a great place. One of my favorites.”

“We have been to just about every sushi place in the area, and this one is by far the best! The food is always fantastic, and the staff is amazing. Hands down, my favorite sushi restaurant!”

“wholesome atmosphere, great food, great people.”

“Very good local bar. Have had wings, burgers, meatloaf and all very good at reasonable prices. Great beer selection on tap. Good for family with lots of choices on menu. Servers always nice and efficient. Can’t wait till summer comes and can use outside eating area!”

“Just want to say thankyou to you all for handling such a big group this morning for my granddaughters birthday brunch. You all were amazing and the food was great and reasonably priced. I will definitely be back more often. Hugs to all the staff.”

“Excellent food, friendly staff”

“Absolutely the best bagels around! Best homemade cream cheese! Outstanding staff and service! Job well done!”

“The BEST deli/sub shop in the area! Whether it’s cold cuts, homemade salads, subs, homemade hot dishes, Pellegrinos of Malta does the best and truly cares about the product they’re serving their customers. These hard working people just do it all right and in the best way! Look forward to going there every week.”

“l LOVE THE PLACE AND THE OWNER”

“One of the best Chinese Food Restaurants in the area! Food is great! Great quality and flavor! Never disappointed! Spicy Vegetable Lo-Mein and Sweet & Sour Chicken are A++ !”

“Omg...this was the best pizza ive ever had!!! The dough is top notch delicious!!!! Nothing else compares!!!! THANK YOU!!!”

“Go food to go. I had got a Ruben with house chips, my husband got the factory burger, which is a burger with Swiss cheese and mushrooms and fries. We also got wings. Everything was excellent and ready in a timely fashion. Too bad they are only open early on Sat and Sunday for lunch and not during the week.”

“Great food and customer service”

“ordered dinner through their website tonight... order successfully went through, went to pick it up... and they were closed! no one there!!”

“Love the wings!!! As a matter of fact I’m going to try the wing special for the week today. It’s orange and ginger, sounds amazing!!”

“We just tried the 8 cut pizza. It was very good! cooked perfectly. Could have used a touch more garlic in the sauce but very tasty”

“So glad I picked this place tonight for dinner! A lot of friends talked about this place for years and tonight I got linguine and eggplant Parmesan. Outstanding perfect! The atmosphere, the owner everything was spot on great price definitely want to pass it on to people.”

“I have been customer for at least 15/20 years 2 weeks ago got 2 subs very disappointed no meat on them today thought we try sausage bread specified peppers and onions also got mushrooms and wings start to eat it..ok no peppers and onions on it tried to let that go but....ok raw dough??? no way call them an wanted to give me 3/4$ credit??? are you serious after all business we have done owner should be aware of issues!! 45.00 order took taste right away”

“They have a great combination plate for lunches for under $10. They have all kinds of stuff on their menu and they give you a nice variety and nice amount of food for the price. They also include either a soda, wonton soup, or egg roll with your lunch included in that price. It's hard to even find a decent meal anywhere for under $10. So I was very pleased and the food was delicious.”

“Such a gem in our Saratoga County. A great choice for lunch dinner or drinks in Ballston Spa. Lovely Irish theme and very friendly staff.”

“We will not get Chinese Food anywhere else !!!! We live over 25 miles from here ~ it’s the only place we order from. Lunch portions are ginormous!! The best !!! I’ll include photos ~ we are on our way there not 👍🏻”

“A bunch of us picked up take out / 2 Poopoo platters , 9 combo platter Lomein, fried rice, soups
Everything was very good, we pre ordered at 10:30 am on Beyond Menu App for a 1pm pickup.
Everything done in Hunan style, the shrimp toast were delicious.”

“Cannot understand why reviews for this pizza restaurant aren't much better. We order frequently from here and have never been disappointed, unlike other pizza places around ballston spa.”

“Very friendly staff and great coffee. Took donuts home for my grandchildren”

“LOVE!! One of our favorite places for healthy eats in the 518!”

“worst experience ever. orderd a pizza i usually go too the one in burnt hills on my way to work. the night of July 2 2025 they lied stole and told me id recieve anything order after the first was an hour late. 30 minutes after that the ego trip manager yelled argued called names and never repaid after promised. blaming me for a worker he said worked there 4 years. it was sent by them not me I guess Uber. The girl lied the manager yelled telling me im a liar after my first order was an hour late and cold. Never refunded just called names.Id never order from a place who even considers treating a person the way they did. they just didt want to come back out or refund. He just yelled at was my fault after my hour late delivery was cold and said we dont go there as of now. we will not correct your order. burnt hills they treat you so well. like family. I have many pizza places near me I loved giving them business but never ballston spa. never again. he hung up as he was got caught in a lie. if you don't do delivery howd I get my first cold hour late one ? He ends it with if our pizzas so good come get it like its crap pizza lol. hell of a manager”
