“Love Kindred! Great food, great cocktails and so many wines to choose from. Their relatively new burger is one of the best in Saratoga. Great staff and service as well. Did I mention how good the burger is? So good.”
“We love this historic restaurant. The food is always hot, fresh and amazingly flavorful. They have outrageously good food that spans from simple to gourmet and their burgers are some of the best you’ll ever taste.”
“The music , the food and service is excellent w the waiters that make u feel very comfortable ❤️ I suggest panzas especially for a celebration… My friends took me there and it was fabulous”
“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.”
“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!”

“My wife and I stopped in for an after dinner drink. Excellent list of sparkling wines by the glass and great list of bottles. We had just had dinner so didn’t get the charcuterie but the guests the next table did and it looked terrific. Next time. Great ambiance, music and a knowledgeable host. We will be back next time we’re in Saratoga Springs.”
“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”

“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.”
“The food was delicious. don't let the appearance from the outside fool you. you can smell the deliciousness from the sidewalk and we ate every bite. the waiter asked if we wanted to eat the paper and we died laughing. They even accommodated us having our baby with us.”
“Great experience! Atmosphere and service were top notch.”
“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.”

“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 and we will definitely come back. The food was fresh, came quick, and each dish as delicious as the previous. We started with the Miso soup, then sushi and fried calamari. Entrees were chicken hibachi and chicken pad thai. The portions were generous and the sauces were amazing. Highly recommend.”
“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.”
“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.

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.

“**The Coat Room, Saratoga Springs - Restaurant Review**
The Coat Room has a fun, eclectic atmosphere that makes it a nice spot for a night out. I went during restaurant week, and the menu had a good selection. The setting is cozy and interesting.
The food was solid, with the Roasted Delicata Squash standing out as a tasty option. The flavors were balanced well, though nothing too extraordinary. Overall, I'd say it’s worth a visit if you’re in the area, especially if you’re looking for something a bit different.”
“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!”
“We had a wonderful meal at Morton's on June 22, 2025. The wine menu is extensive and we ordered two alcoholic beverages. We started with the wedge salad. My husband enjoyed the double cut pork chop cooked medium with button mushrooms and sorbet for dessert. The pork chop was tender and juicy. I ordered Chicken Christopher - tender and hot. The truffle french fries and creme brulee were delicious. We took a few leftovers home with us. Kelly was our server she was friendly, informative and attentive. We look forward to returning soon.”
“Completely forgot to post this on Friday, Lani and myself ordered some food to go from The Mex and we were more than satisfied! Joe created a KILLER wing sauce with all the charm of a classic Buffalo but with some texmex flair and the wings were crispy yet juicy, completely amazing like the rest of the food we got! Thank you Mexican Connection!”
“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!”

“We stopped by for some beer and Detroit Style pizza on Saturday. Even though they were super busy before the Belmont on Broadway concert, they served us very quickly. The staff was very fast and efficient. Our food came out after a very short wait. The beer is always good and the pizza was amazing. The other food coming out looked so good that we plan to come back soon to try something else. We loved the atmosphere in the beer hall. We would highly recommend this place.”
“This Place is Great. We stayed in parking lot while traveling. Six of us found different brews or ciders we enjoyed. My favorite was the Brown Ale. There are so many choices.
And then there's the pizza!. Really the best pizza we ever had. The meatball pizza was topped with homemade meatballs cut in half. The crust is perfectly crispy.
The very best part of this place is the Staff! Friendly, Knowledgeable,”
“Love these guys - they make a mean sandwich. All house smoked meats and killer sandwiches. And they take care of any dietary needs/restrictions. Super friendly, quick service, and tasty food. Keep it up 👍
Oh and they have arcade games - who wouldn’t want to eat here??!”
“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.”

“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 !”
“100 percent the best BBQ by far. Their brisket is the best I ever had and their ribs ARE AMAZING!!! The owner is probably one of the most humble sweetest humans we ever met . Always talks to us when we come in and always remembers our family. I highly recommend the brisket with the Smokey sauce. Macaroni salad and the peanut butter infused ice cream!”
“Visiting Saratoga has always been a bucket list item for us. We were traveling from California. I would highly recommend reserving a table in the Clubhouse . The track is amazing and historic. The food and beverage are very good. You have the ability to wander all over the track and return to your table. There are also a Woodford Reserve Bar in the Clubhouse where you can get your favorite Bourbon Drink or your waitress will bring it to your table. We started with a bottle of Chandon Champagne and then moved to Woodford Old Fashions. The Burrata on toast with tomato jam was a perfect compliment to the champagne. They had several lobster dishes on the menu and Lynn asked if they did a lobster roll. Our waitress said it wasn't on the menu but they could make it for her. They did and it was amazing. Everyone at the track was so friendly and helpful you felt like family. Make plans to go to Saratoga next summer. Go to morning workout, take the backstretch tour, and the historic tour of the track, you will be so glad you made the trip. "You can thank me now, or you can thank me later."”
“employees and some whom go to this establishment have posted all over social media that they cant believe the attempted assassination shooter missed on Former President Trump....if this is the kind of people you want to be around then go here if not i suggest you steer clear!!!”
“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.”
“I love Kaffee House. the food is always fresh and delicious! the atmosphere is perfect for a quiet lunch with a friend. they also have a meeting room. the owners are very friendly and eager to please. I can't forget the desserts, yum! this is my go to for lunch with my friends.”
“Our miniature schnauzer Lulabelle is our Fighting princess! ! She was unfortunately diagnosed with an oral malignant melanoma In June 2024 . After having surgery to remove the tumor, she is on a soft diet, so there are not many treats she is able to have. We are so glad that we found the lazy dog cookie Co! Her favorite is blueberry and peanut butter !soft baked treats!
She has brought so much joy to us, so we are happy to have found this company so that she can enjoy some goodies again!”

“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!”
“It was my first time there. I parked in the wrong spot. Rose told me I had to move my car. Lol. I New right then the food was gonna be delicious. The place was clean and immaculate. Rose was very helpful and gave off a warm vibe. Not to mention, the food was delicious. Will be back again.”

“The brown sugar boba tea with tapioca pearls is absolutely amazing! I had it yesterday and now I want to go back because I really cannot get enough! Anytime I walk by, I HAVE to pop it and grab something because that food and drink is an absolute 10/10. I really really REALLY recommend this place!”
“Been going here for years. I'm originally from Brooklyn, NY and we always had fresh seafood down there because we had real "fish stores" in our neighborhoods. Moby Rick's is a REAL fish store. Fresh seafood, friendly service and you know that you're getting quality when you purchase food from them. I always said, "you get what you pay for" and what you spend at Moby Ricks, you are getting top quality food. Very simple!”

Good menu and our food was very tasty and served hot!! Exceptional for a hotel restaurant. I asked Gabriel for a cocktail on the sweet side and he served me a delicious drink that was perfect!!”
