This was my first time here, lovely environment, live music, and a very nice bar. They offer their own “restaurant week” special which consists of a 3 course meal for $35. The food was fantastic!

A great dining experience. From being helped in with a wheelchair, to our last bite of food. Our waitress was friendly and pleasant. The food was amazing, delicious, large portions. we enjoyed, crabcakes, Ceaser salad, filet mignon, garlic potatoes, Brussel sprouts and raspberry cheese cake. Our complements to the chief.

Parking: Wheelchair accessibility is a priority in our lives. Parking lot to the handicap ramp excellent. Ramp and entrance excellent. Plenty of room for wheelchair movement. Restrooms easily accessible.

Wonderful lunch during Saratoga Springs Restaurant week, everything was excellent and a great value

Best service, vibe, wine and relaxing but fun energy. Restaurant week did salad, filet mignon and cranberry bread pudding w riseigling. For sure top five meals. Bread pudding rivals Germany I never finished a desert ever I could have licked the plate. For sure impressed.

First time but definitely not the last time. Visited on Halloween ? and did not disappoint. Great costumes by the staff, patrons and ?. The bacon filet was cooked perfectly and the rum punch would satisfy any pirate.

We were seated promptly and Ashley was our server. She BTW was wonderful.
Wife ordered Seafood Marconi I ordered the evenings special Prime Rib ( couldn't really rate it as prime rib ). The dish arrived, unfortunately the meat was tough and cold! The only thing I was able to tolerate was the mashed and broccoli that were at least warmer. Ashley offered to have the dish returned, but unfortunately I have serious trust issues with kitchen staff having a dish returned! Our server did comp us on the salad and dessert. Again Ashley was great, the kitchen staff were awful!

This is an amazing place with great staff, excellent food & wine, and a great atmosphere! I highly recommend.

Clean and neat. My wife really liked her salad I got a different salad and hardly anything in the bowl, very little blue cheese and it was $17 for very little.

Server was not rude but was not friendly either.

Would give it 3.5 stars as my wife liked her salad

Such a wonderful experience. The mussels were life changing the chef mark has unimaginable talent. Our sever Nikolas was so kind and attentive just amazing in every way. We had tailspin, blushing moon and diamond wines with a delicious charcuterie board. Very affordable pricing for bottles for purchase by the bar. The crab corn chowder was perfect i can see why it won chowderfest in 2023. We will be coming back as often as we can to try all the other options. Thank you for making our anniversary special ❤️ this is a must stop restarant. 10/10

Service was not great at all. Food was just ok. Scallops had such a fishy smell we didn’t even eat them.

Wine and ambiance were great. Service and staff were awesome. But food was very underwhelming. Charcuterie board left a lot to be desired. Spinach dip had basically no taste and was so watery. Only good food was the bang bang shrimp on special. Hard pass if in the area again.

The wines were good as usual, however the service was just the opposite. We stopped on a Tuesday afternoon with a group of 8, 6 of us being wine club members and long time customers, and felt like we were treated as cattle being processed. Very disappointed, and not at all the experience we have been accustomed to having. We typically leave with a lot of wine, but the experience was a big turn off.
