The best outdoor bar in Saratoga
First time there. Didn't feel too welcome at first but that changed quickly. Great food! Had all the games up we wanted to see and we spent a solid 4 hours there with 4 people and didn't lose our shirts. Wings and sliders were top notch. It will be on the games rotation for sure.

Very low quality establishment. Can't believe they ask for cover charges at the door. $10-$25 per person depending on the night.

Stopped in the ice gauze to see lean canteen( great show). Food came out wrong. Our server was great and took it back to the kitchen for correction. Came back Super Bowl Sunday for a quick bite to eat after a long day of skiing. There was maybe 10 customers in the restaurant when we ordered food. We were very clear that we did not want onions on the nachos. Super clear! But stated because guacamole had onions in it the guacamole was fine but NO ONIONS. Bartender understood. Or food came out with onions all over. The bartender argued with us until she realized we were correct and didn’t even apologize, didn’t offer to fix it, didn’t even give us napkins. She said “oh” and walked away after realizing we weren’t talking about the guacamole, we showed her the hand full of onions all over the nachos. We will never return!

My friend and I had the most bizarre and absurd experience at Ice House this past weekend (July 8th). We went up to the bouncers and my friend (who is a grown 24 year old man) showed them his ID. The female bouncer with a long blonde ponytail proceeded to ask if he had a second form of ID, which is fine but a little weird since people usually just look or scan. He showed her his college ID card, and attempted to show credit cards which all clearly stated his name. She then told him he needed something that proved his birthday, like a passport. Maybe I’m unaware of how the world works and I’m the crazy one, but who carries their passport on them when going out??? Especially when you’re of age and have a valid ID?? We honestly were so shocked by the way we were being treated that we thought it might be a joke. She was so rude, condescending, and dismissive, and basically just said that those are the rules and they have a right to ask. Even the male bouncer was confused as to what was transpiring. She also later stated it wasn’t my friend who was the problem but the “group” he was with. So we’re being judged solely on our appearance? Apparently she knows the owner?? The owner should know she’s nasty, miserable, and turning away paying customers. I saw another review saying that their friends were turned away as well. Get it together.
Parking: There is a library next door that is used for parking. Otherwise it is street parking.
Lady at gate refused service to my girlfriend and her friends . even when she called a REALLY nice lady “Christine” who let her come back and show her insurance cards to confirm her name , the lady at the gate still told her she can “refuse service to anyone for any reason” and when my gf and her friends asked for a reason, none was given, the male coworker with her was super nice but this lady kept saying she could “have them banned” for asking the male why the lady wouldn’t let them in and that she’s “worked there for 13 years” seems to ME that the lady didn’t want the girls in there because they were dressed a certain way. Which shouldn’t matter . But if they were willing to give extra forms of identification why were they denied service? This bar is going to crumble because of its workers.
Love the Saratoga Vibe at the Ice House! Soooooo much fun! Great bar food, Great drinks, Great entertainment, Great times!!!
