Would definitely recommend to make reservations.”

The interior aesthetic is lovely and romantic - a perfect date night spot. I have gluten and tree nut allergies and they are very accommodating too! I highly recommend a stop here and can't wait to go back!”

“The food here is wonderful! The owner and staff put a lot of time and care into the food that they make, and they're not afraid to try new combinations to make the already great products even better.I decided to try out their BBQ Chicken burger and it was fantastic paired with the onion rings. 10/10 for sure.”

“Super tasty bagels, with generous portions for the breakfast sandwiches! The takeout is easy, but try and plan some time to relax inside and soak in the atmosphere.”

Loved the interior setting and the outdoor section was open as well. Loved that it was off Broadway and all of the traffic. Nice quiet space. Loved the local beer, tried a few different kinds.”

“Amazingly busy, worth being put on their waiting list! Wonderful, unique, and delicious drinks.Their menu items are savory and portions are filling.As a former hostess/bartender/wait staff, it was a pleasure to watch their front room staff interact and perform like a well-oiled-machine.Vegetarian options: They are willing to accommodate my good allergies.Dietary restrictions: They are willing to help me with gluten free options!”

“We went for my birthday dinner. Had Ryan as a server, probably the best waiter we have ever had. Make sure you have the Coconut Cream Pie and the great coffee before you leave.”

“Solid brewery with some interesting pours. Tried the what's up doc sour and the hazy ipa and both were great. The broccoli cheddar soup and kimchi brussels sprouts were hearty and full of flavor. Will definitely be coming back next time we are in Saratoga ”

“Their Lobster Pizza is to die for. We live 300 miles away and will be back. They only have a few beer taps but a great selection of cans. Had a Heady Topper with the Lobster Pizza which just made my day.Dietary restrictions: Gluten free for my daughter and her girlfriend”

“Was absolutely amazing. This place was good and knows how to handle situations. Our waitress was embarrassed by the group of drunk women who thought it was ok to grab her butt while we ordered food. She handled it like a champ and staff was quick to react and get patrons to leave. Hope her day got better after the entitled "keep up with Jones's" left. Will be back again.”

“Six of us enjoyed dinner here last night and I cannot say enough good things. The wine, cocktail and NA cocktail lists were extensive. We enjoyed about 10 appetizers and our server staged them perfectly. Our favorites were the dates, brussels sprouts and tomato bread. The highly recommended churros exceeded expectations. We’ll definitely go back to check out the other half of their large selection of tapas!”

“Overall good experience here but coming from the city, Queens/Manhattan I can say it was to expensive for pasta. All the dishes were basically pasta and it was good overall but just to expensive for what it is. Good people tho and cute place. I just wouldn't eat there again if I came back to the area”

“When I have a Mexican food craving, Mexican Connection is my go-to. My husband and I sat at the bar and were just in time for happy hour. With our first round of margs (house margaritas only $5 each), we enjoyed the chips and salsa. They offer two salsas: hot and mild. I could eat the hot salsa by the bucket-full. Tacos were on happy hour special for $3 each. They offer hard or soft with a variety of fillers: veggie, chorizo, chicken, pork, or beef. I ordered two soft chicken tacos, while my husband ordered three hard chicken tacos and damn they were good! The bartenders were top notch - very nice, attentive, and prompt. From conversation at the bar, it seems they get a lot of regulars. One couple comes all the way from Pittsfield Massachusetts each week to have dinner! Our bill was dirt cheap - $45 dollars for dinner and two rounds of drinks. On Mondays they have an all-night happy hour. We will be back for that!”

“Our server was so considerate: he brought a bag holder for my friends bag AND two napkins so we could spit out our gum without us asking - so attentive!! The food was excellent - the mushroom toast is a must, the beats were great with the pistachio spread, and the butter rolls - forget about it. Highly recommend!!”

“The food was absolutely amazing! The service was just as great, Michael our server checked in with us a few times during our dinner and made sure we were doing alright without being overbearing. The atmosphere was a little dark but everything else made up for it. Absolutely will be back for more amazing dishes :)”

“Stopped to grab some sweet treats on the way out of town and after a less than satisfying meal at a restaurant a few doors down and were happy we did. Beautiful case full of amazing looking cakes and pastries. Ended up getting a 3 layer chocolate mousse cake for my husband and a 4 layer lemon and berry cake for me. About $9 each but worth it. And after looking at the menu I believe we would have had an amazing meal. Next time!”

“Great down-home style restaurant. Super fast service friendly staff. Order the wings as an appetizer. We're cooked just right, not too crispy. Collar greens are excellent. Had the shrimp and scallops in a creamy sauce with local homemade pasta. Was very good and not too rich. Chicken and waffles were also very good.”

“This morning my husband and I went to the Triangle Diner before our trip home to Long Island NY. It was small from the outside but don't let the size of the place fool you they are Big on taste and food! Wow what a delicious breakfast we had. I had the Breakfast sandwich 3 eggs Canadian Ham sausage American chews on a hard roll OMG it was the Bomb! It was so good I wrote on the check that it was the best breakfast sandwich I ever had ! And I meant it! The portions were huge and so reasonably priced ! My husband had the eggs with kielbasa he said it was fantastic ! Loved this place! When we return to Saratoga Springs this will be our go to breakfast place from now on!”

“The decor here was charming! Food so fresh and very good. There were many items on the menu we wanted to try so will have to go back again. Friendly waitstaff and attentive, but not overly so.”

“Today we met Bruce at the Saratoga farmers market and he was awesome! His lavender honey ice cream was incredible. Not over powering in flavor but the perfect amount. We will be visiting his shop in the near future.”

“This is my kind of place. Whether you're looking for a sunny outdoor patio, a cozy indoor reading book, a nice bar/brewery, or a mix of all the above - you will find it here.Good music indoors and out on the patio. Eccentric decor with a variety of places to sprawl out. Perfect for a sunny, breezy Saturday afternoon. Staff were all friendly and efficient. Food is amazing. My wife and I got the Detroit style "I need a margarita" pizza and some Korean bbq wings. The pizza was immaculate and the wings were a fun change up from what were used to. Drinks were strong and made with care.If we weren't moving in a month, we'd be spending a lot more time here. Hoping to get a chance to lounge in the cafe sometime before we move downstate!”

“The açaí bowl I got from thorn and roots was delicious. My only complaint is that my bowl came with coconut flakes when I asked for none. Other than that, very good and the store was cute!”

“Visiting Saratoga Springs for a conference. Googled well rated places close by. 3 block walk from the Hilton and was well rated. First impression upon entering was a small quaint place. It isn't a place for a large party but for two to four it's perfect. We had no wait , but seemed like we may need to call ahead on a main dining out night. The place was full and loud at first. Once the bar ( 4 seats) cleared out it was quiet enough to have a private conversation. The service was great and very attentive staff. The food was excellent and timing of appetizers and main dishes was spot on. I ordered the a special of surf and turf.. could not finish it. The appetizer was seasoned and cooked well. Expect to spend 100-150 a person plus for drinks. Would come back”

“I always love kru coffee, but I wanted to give a special shout out to the person who made my set your soul brie earlier, I hope you have an amazing day, because that breakfast sandwich was ?‍?? ”

“They deserve 10 stars! We were in town for a conference last week, when a few of us wondered into the bar. The bartenders were awesome and served us some amazing cocktails. As the night went on more conference attendees wondered into the bar and the bartenders did a great job taking on the crowd and even stayed open late for us! They were very welcoming and did a great job serving us! The bar and lounge are very cozy and has a great atmosphere. The spirits are great. I had a barrel aged gin and tonic which was absolutely delicious. I regret not purchasing a bottle before I left town.”

“The staff were so bubbly and personable. They have a small town feel as soon as you walk in. I ordered a breakfast sandwich and it was super tasty. I come to Saratoga Springs for a conference every year and this is definitely going to be my new cafe spot!”

“Nice friendly feel! I was greeted with a smile and a hello and a glass of water since I walked there. The pulled pork sliders were delicious and the potato salad. Will definitely come back for dine in!”

“I want to start this off with I am a person who loves trying new places and sitting inside to eat, but unfortunately most places are too packed, loud and overwhelming for me to sit inside and eat. However, this place was not only a safe and quiet place, but it's a tucked away little sweet place with a couple galleries to walk around before or after you eat, or if there's a wait, or just in general if you are an art enthusiast as myself. There is more than enough seating available. And even some outdoor seating with a little area to move around if you have kids that need to run around a bit or are high energy.Food wise. I highly recommend the falafel burger and tater tots. They were both super crispy and so flavorful. Not many places can perfect the falafel, however, i think this place has got it figured out! The side portions are on the snaller side. So, I do recommend getting your own rather than getting an order to split, unless you have a more sensitive stomach or fill up quickly, then it is the perfect amount!The workers were very sweet and attentative if we needed anything.Overall left happy and fed, and 100% comfortable the entire time!”

“I love Augie's Family to go! Great food, great prices. I can't count how many times this place saved the day with a quick, delicious dinner for the family.”

“We love Little India! We have been going weekly and have a great experience each time. The chana masala, lamb madras and chicken special are some of our favorites. So awesome that they’re open Mondays, as well!”

“Street tacos were yummy. I ordered one each of carnitas, tinga de pollo, and barbacoa. The side salsa was amazing. For dessert, blueberry-hibiscus donuts and cinnamon sugar donuts to go!”

“We were told to check out this place and we were not disappointed. We got a couple items here including the pesto sandwich and egg salad sandwich. I LOVED my pesto chicken especially with the focaccia bread. We also ordered the cannoli dessert which was beautiful and delicious.”

“The ice cream here is very good. I like that they have kiddy cones and the flavor variety and novelty of flavors is really great. However, like everyone else said, they are severely understaffed so you will have to wait a long time to get to the window if there is a line. Even worse, the ordering system is to queue behind each serving window, so if you step into the wrong line prepare to be severely bitter as you watch people in the other line who came 10 minutes after you get served 15 minutes before you. Why not set up a ticket system like at the deli? That would be much more fair. I'd only recommend stopping by when there's no line.They have parking, but you might not get a spot during peak times. Covered outdoor seating is available.”

“I went for lunch today with a few friends and it was the perfect spot for a quiet, relaxed meetup. The people are very friendly! Well spaced seating. Free parking is a plus. The food is great for what it is, minimalist but satisfactory meals. Having all the "bells and whistles" so to speak, is not always necessary. Personally I chose not to question any prices knowing everything nowadays is expensive, for both customers and business owners. I'd so much rather eat a simple healthier meal here than go to a typical fast-food joint. As for sweets, I took some cake home for my fiance and I to try, and it tasted so good! :)”

“This is by FAR, the best dunkin' in the area! There are multiple older women working here who are the sweetest! My boyfriend and i frequent this location almost every other day, and we always have a great experience. Great coffee and excellent customer service! If i could give more than 5 stars i would!”

“Took me a long time to figure out what I like the Panera and their menu has changed some more towards my liking or flatbread sandwiches and pizzas the shelves are very good as well as the soups are excellent. The staff has always been ”

“Great customer service and we came about 45 minutes before closing. We initially were doing a late night Taco Bell run next door, but they made excuses as to why they couldn't take any orders. Burger King came through!! Thank you to the staff here for their service and kindness.”

“I had an amazing experience here from these staff! They were exceedingly kind and generous. I left a personal item that was rather important to me during my stop here. Since I was on a road trip I was too far to retrieve it by the time I realized. They were great with getting it back to me safe and sound. Very amazing staff!Parking: Big enough for an RV!”

“I buy from this store frequently. They know my name and my order. Yesterday a machine was down so they couldn't make my order. I use the app so they have me my receipt to prove I had already paid, and they even called ahead to another store so my order was ready when I got there.”

“This has to be the best McDonald's I've been to. Such a major difference between this McDonald's and ones in NYC, everyone had a smile, you were greeted well and treated with kindness. The best part, everyone looked happy to work there. Amazing service, so far the best tasting coffee from any other McDonald's I've been to, I guess because whoever made it, was happy ?”

“Customer service is good. Rickie is the best! Drive thru lane is too tightParking: Drive thru is too tight resulting in cars backing up traffic and stopping in the road”

“This Dunkin location is usually very busy. Whether using drive thru, app ordering, or walking inn the service is often slower than other locations. Be prepared for this. Food is good. Staff is friendly.”

“It’s Taco Bell! Always convenient, usually a quick line. Very friendly drive through staff.Parking: Parking spots are plenty and available. Just need to be careful because the drive through line will snake around and then almost block you in.”

“Poor service, took my order. rushed and walked away as fast as possible. Gave us the wrong order it was supposed to be a chicken sandwich due to I can't have red meat. They gave me a burger. My husband ordered a burger with certain things on it and no mustard and no ketchup and they put it on. Poor service. He Ordered to go so we didn't notice until we we got home.”

“Okay need to fix their fries they are not good cook longer maybe?. McDonald's: A Global PhenomenonMcDonald's is more than just a fast-food restaurant; it is a global phenomenon that has had a profound impact on the way we eat, the way we work, and the way we interact with the world around us. From its humble beginnings as a single burger stand in San Bernardino, California, to its current status as the world's largest fast-food chain, McDonald's has come to symbolize the rise of the fast-food industry and the spread of American culture around the globe.In this essay, we will explore the history of McDonald's, its business model and marketing strategies, its impact on society and the environment, and the controversies and challenges it has faced over the years. We will also examine how McDonald's has evolved over time to stay relevant in an ever-changing world, and what the future may hold for this iconic brand.The History of McDonald'sMcDonald's was founded in 1940 by brothers Richard and Maurice McDonald. The brothers started out with a small barbecue restaurant in San Bernardino, California, but soon realized that their most popular items were hamburgers, fries, and milkshakes. In 1948, they closed their original restaurant and reopened as a self-service drive-in restaurant with a streamlined menu focused on these items.The McDonald brothers' innovative approach to food service, which included a focus on speed, consistency, and affordability, quickly caught the attention of businessman Ray Kroc. Kroc was impressed by the brothers' operation and saw the potential for a national franchise. In 1955, he founded the McDonald's Corporation and began franchising the McDonald's concept across the United States.The success of McDonald's was driven by several key factors. One was its focus on standardization and consistency. Every McDonald's restaurant, whether in California or New York, served the same menu items prepared the same way. This ensured that customers knew what to expect when they visited a McDonald's, regardless of where they were.Another factor was McDonald's' emphasis on speed and convenience. The company pioneered the use of assembly-line techniques in food preparation, which allowed it to serve food quickly and efficiently. This was a major selling point for customers looking for a quick meal on the go.McDonald's also revolutionized the fast-food industry with its marketing strategies. The company was an early adopter of television advertising and used catchy jingles and memorable characters like Ronald McDonald to create a strong brand identity. McDonald's also targeted children with its marketing, offering toys and playgrounds to attract young customers and their families.By the 1970s, McDonald's had become a global phenomenon, with restaurants in countries around the world. The company continued to expand rapidly, opening new restaurants and introducing new menu items to cater to changing tastes and preferences.McDonald's Business Model and Marketing StrategiesMcDonald's business model is based on franchising, with the majority of its restaurants owned and operated by independent franchisees. Franchisees pay an initial fee and ongoing royalties to McDonald's in exchange for the right to operate a McDonald's restaurant and use its brand name, trademarks, and operating system.This franchising model has been a key driver of McDonald's growth, allowing the company to rapidly expand its presence around the world without the need for significant capital investment. Today, McDonald's has over 38,000 restaurants in over 100 countries, making it the largest fast-food chain in the world.”

“We love coming here with our infant baby. Spacious, has changing tables in the bathroom and great selection of drinks and food :) perfect place for families with kids.”

“The cutest little bar located right in the heart of town. They have delicious drinks and the bartenders are the nicest people ever. 100% recommend, stop in for something local.”

“Dive bar with craft beer, doesn't get much simpler.The outside is a bit deceiving since they have tables tucked on the other side of the room for additional seating.No food at all but packaged goods to go. About 12 craft beers on tap, chill vibe overall.”

“While out and about in Saratoga Springs, NY I stumbled upon this cafe. It was nearing closing time on a weekday so nobody was there but me, and the interior of the place was pretty clean and cozy. I sat for a while inside and enjoyed my latte. Would definitely go back again.”

“Had the special, Nigerian Suya. It was so delicious—the baguette was super fresh! The sandwich was generously filled and still held entirely together without becoming a mess. It was layered with flavors and absolutely delicious. International friends visited this deli this past summer and they loved it as well. Online order takeout process couldn’t have been any easier.”

“Out for a motorcycle ride. Glad we stopped to give it a try. Food was fresh very good and cooked to order . Staff was very friendly.Will definitely make it a point to stop again .”

“STOP HERE FOR CHOWDER FEST. The best chowder was here for the 2024 season and WOW. If you’re seeing this and still have time to stop by and vote you won’t be sorry! (Also phenomenal sour beer) ;)”

“Food is amazing. The customer service is above and beyond. Best tomato soup I've ever had. The sandwiches also amazing. Wish I had discovered this place sooner!”

“Super fast and friendly service. I work in Saratoga during the summer, and this is one place I must eat at at least a few times during the summer. The food is always hto, fresh and taefy in no time. I always get an awesome dog, potato salad and a fresh lemonade. ?”

“Truly the best burgers, fries & shakes around. ? Never disappointed in a 5 Guys ? when u want a real burger that doesn't taste like fast food, they really hit the spot. All the melty cheese & the perfect saltiness on the fries. Both the Cajun & reg fries are addictive. Good thing they always give u cup in the bag & then dump alotta xtra fries in there so there's always plenty 2 munch on. May not b the cheapest burger in town, but so well worth it when u hav that craving. They fulfill it properly. And saving the best 4 last, the shakes. Omg the shakes. I get either the PB or the banana & yes they will mix the 2 for u if u want. Soooooo good? This time I picked the PB, of course with whipped cream. It's worth the trip, just 4 a great shake. I have yet 2 meet a 5 Guys staff that wasn't courteous & efficient. The Saratoga location was great. Quick service with a smile. I can't recommend them enough. I was thinking about 5 Guys all week long & once again, they did not disappoint ?”

“Been here a few times now so I feel like I have a good feel for the place. It's definitely a locals kinda place but not the kind of place you feel unwelcome if you are not a local or are new to the area like myself. They have different activities all week long, like Karoke, Trivia, BINGO, etc. There's ample parking. They have an outdoor patio when the weather is nice. I would consider this a "dive" but only because most other places in the area are so bougie and Kings is no frills, slightly shabby but also is cool. The best kinda place in my opinion. The staff I've encountered are friendly and hardworking. We were there on St Patrick's Day and it was packed! They still served everyone with a smile and were hustling to keep people from waiting too long for drinks. Not to mention they were clearly well staffed. I think the prices are reasonable and they have the mug club which is cool. Haven't really gotten to eat their food there yet so I'll update when we do.”

“The family has been coming to PJ's for years - Easter is right without PJ's ham. Though after our sandwiches we may have to skip dinner for that Easter ham. Lol ”

“Fun time and enjoy seeing Emily making her famous Bloody Emily INDEED! unfortunately they forgot today was April Fool's Day and decided to do a Hawaiian luau. Emily is very proud of her Bloody Emily skills showcasing it in dah picture ? perfect pint of Guiness from Emily indicated in photo with extreme clover technique as you will notice with her artistic behavior!”

“Stopped in for a quick drink because we had heard of the place before and wanted to check it out. We were only passing through so we did not have time to stay very long.”

“We got takeout from Pizza 7 for the first time- the pizza and wings were excellent. They have a large menu with alot of variety. Looking forward to getting more Pizza 7 takeout.”

“Looking for a local restaurant for breakfast we happened across Shirley's Dinner. Lots of great options including what looked like killer pancakes. We opted for one of the many healthy options on the menu and got both the Mediterranean and Healthy omelette. Both were yummy and the staff was super friendly and attentive. Well worth the detour from the highway!”

“Caputo's donated Vodka Penne Pasta to our school fund raising pasta dinner. It was the BEST pasta I have ever tasted. Genuine vodka sauce with delicate cherry tomatoes and spinach blended in. We need to do there and be served this. Also, just walk in and see their huge variety of delicious looking pizza! I must go in and get a slice! Thanks again for your generous donation! ?”

“Bamboo Cookhouse is my go-to for a delicious meal on nights I cant be bothered to cook! The food is always fresh and delicious. The staff members are always smiling when I walk in and the atmosphere is equally inviting. I highly recommend them to everyone looking for a delicious treat!”

“We took it to go. Great food, great service. A little pricey, but also expected for the area.We had a few different rolls, shrimp Mei Fun Noodle, and veggies. ?Vegetarian options: I ordered the triple green. Very tasty.”

“Excellent food, menu is perfect for the geographical location of Italy they are replicating, which I might say they do very well. Small place, but they really work hard to get you in quick, use the reservation system, they got us in with 5 minutes or our time. Service is excellent and food was amazing, kitchen is upfront, which is actually better than you think. The staff works hard and seem to have a wonderful attitude. This place is wonderful, Kudos to DZ Restaurants very nice work!”

“My wife and I stayed at the absolutely fabulous Adelphi hotel on broadway in Saratoga but that’s another story! We were in town on a Sunday Monday and morissey was lively and open , kinda rare for off season Monday up there. Anyway it was my wife’s birthday , our waitress was so cool FELICIA THANKS did the candle thing. Mussels off the chain, we legit ordered everything that sounded good and it checked out .THANKS ?Kid-friendliness: There was a couple of well behaved cuties in the area bc obviously it’s a hotel but maintains a very cool vibe. BABIES ARE ALWAYS CUTE”

“I have to say, this is an amazing place. As a fine dining Executive Chef, I'm so picky whenever I eat at any restaurant. Unfortunately we live in an age that many people don't care what quality they offer within their restaurant. Not this place! Everything was top notch, the service was great from the second we walked in, to when we were leaving. Our wonderful very attentive waitress Nollah really did well with being attentive, because she was very busy. She took time to introduce herself and to speak with us and to follow up to make sure we were doing well and enjoying ourselves. She's a waitress that every restaurant hopes for.We started out with the meatball appetizer, and that was a hit. Made of pork, veal and beef and it was cooked to perfection. You are able to taste that those meatballs were made from scratch and have never seen a freezer! We had the eggplant and spicy sausage rigatoni and it was great. Whomever is the chef should get a raise for truly showing he cares with how every dish came out of that kitchen!The hostess was also very attentive, this indeed was a great experience from beginning to end. Hats off to the owners, to management, to the staff for showing they care for this business of culinary with not only the amazing service, or amazing ambiance, but for the food being made with such love and an eye for perfection.So if you are in Saratoga, and want an amazing experience, in the mood for great Italian food, this place is a must try. You will not regret it!”

“Food top notch...steak as good if not better than Cap G, Smith and W, Abe and L, Grill 23, etc. Lots of other items to choose from, daughter is a vegetarian :) Service was spectacular also. Highly recommend. Our new favorite resytaurant in Saratoga Springs!”

“I went here because I heard they had delicious European food. Having travel to live in Europe, I was really interested and excited that there was a restaurant, serving different European dishes from beer producing countries such as Belgium, Germany, Austria, Poland. We sat down and we had a large mug of hofbrau . It was good to see. It was a large variety of beers on the menu, including local beers, and even a beer from Iceland and many interesting varieties from Belgium. For appetizer, we ordered the potato pancakes, which came with sour cream and applesauce. We also had the eggplant caviar, which was great for the vegetarian group on the table. I ordered the schnitzel, which was a breaded, pork covered, covered in mushroom sauce with homemade red cabbage over German fried potatoes. My other have had the salmon dish with the leekwhite wine confit. For the serve, we had the homemade, apple strudel and the crêpe with fresh mascarpone and strawberries. The service was fantastic and the food came out fast and we will definitely be back to try some other dishes. This is a great addition to the restaurant scene in Saratoga.Vegetarian options: Hummus. Salads. Mushroom burgerKid-friendliness: Kids menu”

“Love that they have a whole separate menu for Gluten Free options. The flavor was delish on the chicken riggi dish I ordered. Proportion of chicken to pasta not quite worthy of 5 star. We really enjoyed sitting outside too on the patio and people watching and the fact that the waiter Montana brought us a bottle of water so we didn't have to keep asking for refills. I am eager to go back and try their GF loaf of bread next time which is $4.00. Glad they offer GF bread!Dietary restrictions: Gluten free and tree nut allergy”

“My wife and I were in town for one night but two breakfasts’, both of which we had the pleasure of dining at the Merc. Absolutely chill vibes, late 90s knocks on the radio, BASKET OF BISCUITS…sorry I legit get carried away when describing my experience at the merc, waitress thanked us for our patience as your validly popular restaurant filled up. No! THANK YOU! For your wonderfully fresh ingredients , friendly service and overall great experience.Vegetarian options: I’m not a vegetarian but the menu had a lot of viable or as is options!”

“Great food and drink and service. The views and outside seating in the summer is like being on a tropical island! My favorite food is their watermelon poppyseed salad and for the drinks a Painkiller is a must! Totally feels like you are on vacation there if you go during the summer, especially when they have live raegae bands there!”

“What a great Mexican Restaurant in Saratoga Springs ! The ambiance was great the service was impeccable and the food was fantastic! I had the chimichanga with rice and beans and it was superb! The Margaritas were excellent and not watered down at all and the service was impressive! What a great experience! Thumbs up to this restaurant!”

“Great down-home style restaurant. Super fast service friendly staff. Order the wings as an appetizer. We're cooked just right, not too crispy. Collar greens are excellent. Had the shrimp and scallops in a creamy sauce with local homemade pasta. Was very good and not too rich. Chicken and waffles were also very good.”

“My group & I really enjoyed our experience at Cantina! We were in town for a couple days and could not have picked a better spot. Cozy, welcoming, aesthetically pleasing, wonderful service. Our waitress Olivia was so lovely and right on top of everything. My friends got skinny margs which were amazing. I got a virgin guava coconut marg 10/10 would recommend to a friend!! The food was all delicious, super fast, perfect amount of spice on everything. Definitely very fresh ingredients. All-around we had a really great experience and will have to come back the next time we're in town.”

“Great brunch spot! Great food and service, suggest reservations on busy days. Our family has been here many times over the years, never disappointed. It's a bit pricey but well worth it.”

“My wife and iI went there 3/3 for their Sunday brunch. The food was great, the service was attentive and friendly, and the music was excellent. We will ne going again.”

“Super tasty bagels, with generous portions for the breakfast sandwiches! The takeout is easy, but try and plan some time to relax inside and soak in the atmosphere.”

“This morning my husband and I went to the Triangle Diner before our trip home to Long Island NY. It was small from the outside but don't let the size of the place fool you they are Big on taste and food! Wow what a delicious breakfast we had. I had the Breakfast sandwich 3 eggs Canadian Ham sausage American chews on a hard roll OMG it was the Bomb! It was so good I wrote on the check that it was the best breakfast sandwich I ever had ! And I meant it! The portions were huge and so reasonably priced ! My husband had the eggs with kielbasa he said it was fantastic ! Loved this place! When we return to Saratoga Springs this will be our go to breakfast place from now on!”
