Fine Dining Restaurants near Saratoga Springs, NY

“Special splurge meal with a couple buddies Started with the Broadway tower for 2 -- all the seafood was excellent. Shrimp were huge, salmon crab and Tuna were all delicious Lobster dumplings - probably the most delicious bite of the meal. It's pricy tho I got the delmonico - 16oz boneless ribeye. Perfectly cooked med rare, no complaints at all. Au poivre sauce was ok but probably could leave out Unpictured - Other friend ordered the 7oz wagyu top cap, which was described as meat butter. Sooooo tender. And the other ordered 18oz dry aged Kansas strip - meaty and flavorful. Can't go wrong with any of these Sides: Mac n cheese with lobster was wonderfully creamy and succulent, with good pieces of lobster. Brussel sprouts w/bacon was great and the only green thing in our meal. Potato dauphinoise - probably could've done without - not special Wild mushrooms was good We all also ordered a lobster tail add on to our steak -- we definitely won't do this again. Not worth the $35 for a small tail that was swimming in butter and overcooked My old fashioned was perfectly made. A friend loved his martini. Another got a Johnnie walker blue on a rock - this was a splurge that is not worth it but that was known going in The dining room consists of several smaller rooms. Our r9om had 3 or 4 tables, and a couple times was loud. But nothing too crazy. Our waitress Danielle was wonderful. Very personable and super knowledgeable of the whole menu. She offered her suggestions when asked, and checked in on us. Her helper (forgot his name) was also great and refilled water quickly. We'd suggest Salt and Char to anyone, knowing that it's not cheap. Maybe avoid the lobster add on but definitely go for the lobster dumplings.“

“I have only visited for a few events: work dinner parties and bridal showers. Both times, the food was immaculate, and the service was top notch! I really like the gentleman at the bar in the ballroom. He is very friendly, funny, and approachable.“

“Augie's was absolutely amazing! It was the first time I had ever been, and I would recommend it to everyone! I grew up in B.Spa and remember that location as being an IGA market way back when. I hadn't been back in probably 40 years. Honestly, everything at Augie's was perfect...the atmosphere, service, and the food were phenomenal! Five stars across the board! Fortunately, we arrived early because shortly thereafter, the dining area near the bar filled up quickly. From my understanding, they take reservations, and I will be making one next time we go.Parking: We had no issues with parking but we arrived early. As we were leaving, I did notice the lot in front was very full, so late arrivals may encounter some issues potentially.“
