The ingredients are clearly sourced with care, and you can taste the quality in every bite. The chefs have managed to master the balance of flavor, texture, and presentation, making each dish a singular entity of culinary artistry. Impeccable service is another hallmark of Hamlet and Ghost. The staff is attentive without being intrusive, knowledgeable about the menu, and genuinely enthusiastic about the food and drink offerings. In conclusion, Hamlet and Ghost is an extraordinary dining destination that masterfully combines outstanding drinks, unforgettable food, and impeccable service in a memorable atmosphere. The complexity and texture of the dishes will linger in your memory, prompting you to return again and again. I cannot recommend this restaurant highly enough—if you’re looking to treat yourself to an extraordinary culinary experience, this is the place to be.“

“The atmosphere is lively and the wait staff was friendly. Our drinks were beautiful to look at and exceeded our expectations. We started with the Parkerhouse rolls and were not disappointed. The Empanadas were also delicious. The Jerk Chicken & steak dinner were perfect. Definitely recommend.“

“Food that I could eat was ok, but the staff really needs to have a book readily available that lists all ingredients in each dish.
Even if they don't show it to customers, it's critical that at least the staff have access to this information to be able to alert customers whether or not their allergen is in a particular food item.“

“We had a great time tonight!“

“Authentic Southern Indian cuisine. Great selections for vegan / vegetarian. Excellent food and service.“

“Authentic, delicious, Italian cuisine...like a fancy version of Sundays and holidays growing up. Danny's sauce recipe is printed on a flour sack in a frame on the wall (very close to Mom's) so those of us who cook can savor the taste at home. Everything our party of 4 ordered exceeded expectations and was served up by friendly, knowledgeable staff. The Veal Danny and eggplant in particular....so, so good. Chocolate cake with pistachio cream and a fine cup of coffee to end the meal....now that's perfection!“

“Best collard greens I've ever had, pulled pork was awesome. Baked beans were tasty and I don't recommend trying the peach cobbler because you will be hooked for life“

“Great food, friendly service Support local“

“We were there on June 4th Unbeknownst to us it was the start of Belmont week in Saratoga. The city was mobbed with people great to see. But not great on walk in dining. We were told it would be an hour wait because of all the reservations they had. This was not part of our plan of course. We then spotted an outdoor table in the shade. We grabbed it and the rest is history. We were greeted by Eli our server who by the way is incredibly knowledgeable when it comes to craft beer. He managed to recommend beers for all three of us that were delicious. Outstanding job Eli. We shared a spicy little pizza and a charcuterie board and both were awesome. What a great experience from start to finish. great beer and food spells a good time and we will be back for more in the future“

“Delicious and HOT food!! The greens and beans and lasagna as delicious! We will be back!!!“

“I recently found this place in the last few months as I go for therapy right down the road. I’m not from Saratoga area so I don’t know many food places. Since the first time I ordered, I have gotten lunch basically every week now! The customer service is great, the food is amazing, and they give you a huge serving of food. I just can’t say enough good things about it. I highly recommend giving this place a try if you are looking for somewhere to eat!“

“to the people commenting on the lack of ambiance...? i think it is fine. for me the music is "ambient" enough, along with the lovely wall mural, and photos showing what the food is....not to mention the collection of both holly AND "bolly"wood stars and starlets, adorning a back side wall. the dining area is always SPOTLESSLY CLEAN, and the bathroom shines. they keep the prices very reasonable, which is a HUUGE plus for me. the food is always great, fresh, and tasty, not to mention a lot healthier than the traditional american diet. staff is attentive. i never felt they "watch to see how many dishes you take", as someone suggested. they are likely making sure people get FRESH plates with every visit to the steam tables., since this is actually a restaurant/buffet health law...i have never ever, once felt like they wanted to "rush" me out. they are always very welcoming and accommodating.. AWESOME SPOT. thank you, clifton park "shalimar".“

“First time at the Merc. Hostess was very nice. Patrick's professionalism was fantastic and not seen enough these days. Brady was our server and his spirit and recommendations were spot on. The food was great and the Sangria was perfect for a Sunday afternoon brunch.... Thank you all...delish!“

“Scallions offers several vegetarian options. I ordered the Mediterranean Quinoa Bowl. Tofu was supposed to be grilled but definitely wasn’t. The citrus vinaigrette was a bit overpowering. The dish came to the table hot and I enjoyed it other than what I mentioned here. Pistachio ricotta cake was delicious.“

“Had our wedding reception here this past weekend-service was exceptional, food was incredible, and Taylor went above and beyond to try and make sure everything was perfect for us. Guests told us it was one of the best weddings they’d ever been to. Highly recommend“

“great food FAST definitely fast food was hot an didn't taste old... great staff the kid grabbing our stuff was sweet an our waitress... wish the words ONLY TAKES CASH was a lil bigger on door. Cost me 4$ with my bank fees an their ATM other than that 10/10 would recommend“

“Absolutely delicious every single time. Laid back artistic atmosphere, great people, the chefs do an amazing job. If you order medium steak you get a medium steak right on the money. Thank you Maxons for another great dinner for our family!“

“Absolutely amazing, huge portions, amazing homemade pasta, great service!“

“Our Server Cody was excellent, made our experience even better then it already was. Food was great, loved the atmosphere .. we will be back Thank you“

“First timer for a family lunch. Everyone loved the Mac & Cheese (with the breadcrumb topping). I had the chicken sandwich and it was a five star meal along with homemade sweet potato chips. My wife had the grilled cheese and tomato soup which she gave three stars. My daughter had the chili and she and I agreed it was the weal link in the experience. Clean place, fast service and the chicken sandwich is why I give this place a solid four stars. Try it for yourself.“

“My experience was exceptional tonight in these days and times. When my order for Prime Rib was not cooked to order, they replaced it not only with the correct preferred doneness, but it was replaced in a timely manner and with a genuine desire to please me as a customer. Kudos to the manager that is in charge of the Prime Rib clientele - which is exceptional in the Clifton Park area. 👍“

“Family and I go a few times a year. Definitely like this place. Very common for locals to also come. Make sure to call for reservations during busy parts of the day. They also do take out as well. My go to is the shredded tofu with noodles. This time I happen to get a Vegetarian Spring Roll. Very good as well. I do like the Summer rolls as well. Next time I’ll get a summer roll ^_^“

“Food is wonderful. Wait staff very well informed. We always ask for Janelle as our Server. My wife loves the Duck recipes and the Escargot. We can’t wait for October fest. We are there every week for the month of October“

“We just celebrated our 2nd year Anniversary, our waitress Jackie went out of her way to make it special for us, also the staff there is great to and Milan came over wish us Happy Anniversary as well, can't wait to celebrate again there next year, absolutely love it.“

“We were surprised and delighted by how fresh the food was at this restaurant. We wandered in about 8 PM on a very slow night and yet our sashimi was absolutely fantastic and all our other dishes were beautifully presented. We would 100% return to this restaurant. It’s a hidden gem“

“Stopped in for drinks, great bar selection Ordered the tuna tartare, beet salad and French fries. All exceeded expectations. So delicious and generous sized portions. Wish we were staying in town longer so we could return.“

“my wife and I were celebrating our 20th anniversary in saratoga. we stopped in for lunch, and it did not disappoint! the food is amazing, and it's a great environment. highly recommend!“

“Great happy hour spot. Don't arrive during happy hour for a dinner table without a reservation on a weekend night. High tops are seated for dinner guests only when guests finally are done with the long happy hour.

Drink specials at happy hour are worth the trip but someone has to wait in line at the door at 4:30 for high top seating. Meeting people at happy hour is easy because seating is close and you can hear everyone's chatter.

Well staffed. Good service. Catering takeout is easy and consistent.

Parking: EV charging for a fee.“

“Food is great and service is great. The only issue I have is your gift card policy between Albany and Saratoga. I’ve had family be told you can use a gift card at either location and I have been told it must be used where it was purchased? My parents bought a gift card at the Albany location for my wife and I. The back of the card had Saratoga on it. Thankfully, we presented the gift card receipt after being told we could only use it in Saratoga when the receipt showed it was purchased in Albany. Thankfully, the server and the manager didn’t give up on the situation and were able to manually enter the card number in despite the magnetic strip on the card not working. Bravo to them! However, the only gift cards you are able to purchase in Albany say Saratoga on the back. So if you have a gift card, you better bring a gift card receipt or you may not be able to use it. I hope you guys look at the policy. My only negative. Other than that sushi is fresh and quick and great service !“

“Was finally able to get a reservation and the reputation is well deserved! The wait staff is fantastic and the owners are very friendly. A big key to great Italian restaurants is how well they do with the basics. The red sauce here is fantastic. Hard to find the right words to describe how wonderful it tastes. They are using the freshest, highest quality ingredients and it shows in their excellent meatballs. The sauces in the lobster pasta and veal pasta blew us away. We enjoyed it so much we came back the next night after a table opened up last minute. If I didn't live three hours away I would be here regularly. Cannot recommend this place enough.“

“We ordered two meals for take out . The absolutely best I have ever had ! Fresh vegetables , large portions . Definitely will be going back .“

“Staff were great, Doreen is as sweet as can be. The strip steaks were amazing and literally cut with a butter knife. Will def be back.“

“Great and friendly service!“

“Dairy Circus is always wonderful!! Large portions, reasonable prices (so uncommon these days), and the girls behind the windows are always so sweet! They also have the best toasted coconut dip! Thank you so much for being a place where our family can gather for a delicious treat!!“

“Excellent service“

“My husband myself and my mother went there tonight to celebrate my birthday August 24. We’ve never been there before and I just want to say that the service was fantastic! The food was fantastic! Our waiter really outdid herself and we will definitely go there again.“

“This bakery is amazing. The vibe is relaxed and welcoming. The service is wonderful and the food is out of this world. Farm fresh eggs, fresh baked rolls. Who could ask for more. And the chocolate chip cookies????? I wish I could eat one everyday. ❤️❤️❤️“

“Boca Bistro is a gem! I had a table tucked in by the wine wall and it was perfect…cozy and quiet. The Bistro Steak was delicious and my waiter, Lynch provided attentive and friendly service. I look forward to returning.“

“amazing daily specials!! always very fresh! not long wait, great location right on Broadway, has parking. A definate must.“

“First time here with my family. Authentic Thai & Japanese Food, nice service with great atmosphere. Will definitely visit again soon 👍🥰🙏🥳“

“Always taking a chance when trying new pizza place but finally found the best pizza near by. Sad to say I’ve been in the area 5+ years and only just tried them.“
