“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.“

“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.“

“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!“

“First time here. They explained the menu and how people usually order. Plus, talking about the other items they have. You can sit inside or out. They bring the food to you. Plus, you can leave everything, and they clean up. We didn't do that, but it is a service they provide.

The food was absolutely delicious. Cooked perfectly to how we requested.“

“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“

“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.“

“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.“

“Love this place! Food is always excellent and service is top notch. Also love the ambiance there. They nailed everything. The owner is great and Sue, our waitress didn’t miss a beat. Highly recommend!“

“We came in tonight, a party of 10 adults and 4 kids, for my dad's surprise 60th birthday and Ronnie was our waiter. From the moment we walked in, the staff was extremely friendly, everything was exceptionally clean, and service was absolutely outstanding. Ronnie was extremely attentive, sparked up lots of conversation with everyone, gave recommendations, and really took the time to include the kids (menu options, brought plain butter for their bread, etc). The food was outstanding, drinks were delicious and kept full, and we all left very very satisfied. For a majority of the party, it was our first time dining at Jacob and Anthony's, and there is no doubt that we will all dine there again.

Huge props to Ronnie for an absolutely perfect night for my dad and the exceptional service you gave. We cannot thank you enough!“

“Made a last minute reservation sight unseen. Walked in and were seated right away. Server was friendly, pleasant and helpful with recommendations. Food came out fast. I had the salmon burger and my partner had the fish sandwich. Both delish. Atmosphere is perfect, nice, but not stuffy. Reasonable prices. What a lucky find!“

“Visited Dunning Street Station on Friday night. Our 1st visit. Much larger than it appears from outside. Sat at the bar and had drinks. Ordered their Italian Wedding soup. A little spicy but very good. Also ordered to go. Met great people. A great place to socialize. Will definitely become one of our go-to places! Great job!“

“Great time coming for my 32nd birthday! They have a great staff, fast service. We were here during off peak hours but Bentley’s is a popular spot!!“

“Service was amazing. Food was amazing and talking to the locals was awesome. One of the best experiences I’ve had in a long time.“

“We have stumbled on this place unexpectedly while roaming through the park and food was delicious, freshly made and tasty. Fries and sweet potatoe fries are amazing, the burger was grill cooked to perfection and not only tasted but also smelled delicious. Quesadilla and BLT were also great!“

“We always have a great time at a Nanola. We are longtime trivia participants. The music is MUCH MUCH too loud, but our regular server, Bradley, makes up for it with his sweet disposition and his understanding of what we want. Rob and Erin are marvelous.“

“Ashley was our server and he was such a pleasure from the moment we entered the restaurant to the moment we left. He made sure we were comfy at all times and was super attentive despite being the only one working in the dining area at the time. My wife and I felt so welcome and appreciated. We came for restaurant week ($35 3 course meal/ person) during our anniversary weekend, and we both enjoyed churro sundaes for dessert, preceded by our entrees (butternut squash tortellini, beer braised short rib) and appetizers (apple pumpkin bisque, maple pulled pork sliders). I want to come back in the future as some of their regular menu items looked great.“

“Amazing food and a great vibe, surprising to find at a hotel bar/restaurant. Sat at the bar and had dinner after a very long travel day. Kristi took EXCELLENT care of us! We were so excited to stumble upon this gem.“

“I can’t say enough about Hamlet and Ghost and I am not an easy person to impress. The intimate lighting and stylish decor create an inviting space that feels both special and comfortable—perfect for a date night or a celebratory dinner with friends. The drinks were very good. Each cocktail is crafted with precision, utilizing fresh ingredients and innovative combinations. Whether you prefer something classic or are in the mood for a daring concoction, the skilled mixologists here have you covered. Each dish we ordered was not only a feast for the eyes but also an unforgettable experience for the taste buds. 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.“

“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!“

“Great experience! Atmosphere and service were top notch.“

“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!!!“

“We had a dinner and had Neighborhood Kitchen cater, even though it was a small group of 5. We had gluten free menu and everything was absolutely delicious!

“My husband and I have been going to Pennel's ever since we were dating in 1963. This is our every family occasion celebration restaurant. Birthdays, anniversaries, even before holiday gatherings are held at Pennell's. It has been a part of our family tradition for over 60 years, and I just know our children will continue it for years to come. Great meals and memories! Thank you Pennell's.“

“Great food and service“

“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.“

“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.“

“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. ❤️❤️❤️“

“The food and atmosphere were amazing! Staff was great and we didn’t feel rushed. Wonderful experience for my first visit! Would highly recommend!!“

“The food was top notch and the service was great! Ee loved that the appetizers and entrees were spaced out and not rushed. CC was our sweet waitress but there was another one who teased with us every time she walked by. So fun!!! Definitely will go back!“

“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.“

“The Brickyard catered an event for me and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Ron was very helpful to me choosing the menu and the delivery and set up was a welcome service. I heard many compliments from guests about the food. Thank you Brickyard Tavern.“

“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.“

“I lived in Saratoga in 1983. The Tin & Lint was one of our favorite watering holes! If memory serves me correctly, Tuesday nights were nickel beer night! We called it, Sticky Floor Night! We'd get all fugged up and then go chase the Skiddy Kitties!! Good times, great memories!“

“This is a very sweet place, the staff are friendly, the clientele obviously are many repeat customers who feel at home. The laughter coming from the bar was infectious. We haven’t been to Saratoga since before COVID and we had an old gift certificate they honored no question. Food was delicious.“

“This local restaurant & bar was great! Loved the whole experience! When traveling we always try local eateries, & this one was top notch. The background music wasn’t too loud & the staff was very friendly. The food was worth it!!!

Vegetarian options: I am not, but they had dish options clearly labeled.

Parking: There is few parking spots in front, but there is more around back. Coming from out of town it was a little confusing at first, but we caught on quick.“

“Great atmosphere and great beer“

“We showed up on Valentine’s Day without a reservation and were able to get a spot at the bar. The bartender, Heather, was excellent, as was the food.“

“Great breakfast fare. Just wanted to correct the person's comment from October 2022: Shirley's is still the same breakfast place as always, serving the same type of food. However, a different restaurant takes over in the evenings. They seem to be sharing the space.“

“The Wine Bar never disappoints!! The service is exceptional as is the food. The mixologist can make you any concoction you like, and it will always be amazing. I have gone there with friends on special occasions like New Year’s Eve and the DJ, food and drinks are always spectacular ! The crowd is inviting and ohhhh so much fun!! The owners make you feel welcomed and appreciated. This is a rarity.“

“No food. Snowstorm and left my mate outside. Not worth it considering you got lads stumbling out the bar but wont let someone smoking one cig out the bar, while sober.. it’s been a great bar and no reasons to hate until the bouncers couldn’t “let her in cause of one previous bouncer”. get the head bouncer tryna be careful and didn’t get a chance to chat to the lad but hope he’s well and that next one he thinks a bit more on it. Nothing personal love this place great time and great fair prices.“
