Our server was really nice. It wasn't busy at all. Came in with my daughter. We ordered a few items, but we won't be back. The food was pretty bad. My eggplant appetizer was cold when it came out, but it was the only food we actually thought tasted good. My daughter got a pizza which was also cold and so greasy. It was so bad she didn't finish one piece. She had the penne side which she ate but it's literally penne with red sauce. We ordered the rice balls and asked if it had meat and were told no. But it had ground beef. We don't eat meat. So that was a huge disappointment. It wasn't clear at all. Our server handled it well but definitely could have been more clear. I had some wine which also wasn't great. The bartender looked really upset to be there at all and I heard him grumble several times. For what we ended up spending it was not a great meal. The menu looked nice with variety, but cold food that didn't taste good. No real ambiance, since as I said the bartender was complaining and it was pretty empty. I gave stars only bc our server was doing her best to give us a good experience.

Went on a Thursday evening and it was very quiet, waiter was very friendly and attentive and the food I had was excellent. Will definitely be visiting again!
We found this little gem when we had lunch at I love NY Pizza which was nearby. Everything about our experience was great. Sammie was our server and she was friendly and attentive. We had the arrancini for an appetizer and they were delicious. I had the encrusted chicken over angel hair. It was a large portion and was tender and flavorful. I took one cutlet home. My partner had penne pasta with two different meatballs. He loved it. We splurged on tiramisu. It was a huge portion. We wished they had fresh parmesan.We love eating downtown but it was nice to be away from the crowds. All the staff were friendly and there was a family feel. We will definitely be back.
This was our first visit. Everything was top notch! Especially loved the soft background music that made conversation very enjoyable. Highly recommend and we will be returning soon.

The food here is very good, I got the pasta, forgot what kind but it was amazing. The service is immaculate and friendly our server was very nice, the food was very quick, and well cooked throughout with just the right amount of everything. The atmosphere is perfect with a bit of music but not too loud, unfortunate how this place is a little empty for it being so good.

Met the owner of the restaurant in town and had a conversation about his place...He convinced us to try his place for dinner on New Years Eve. My wife and I decided to go and it was the best decision of the weekend..Service was great! Food was amazing..My wife had the Encrusted Chicken and I had an amazing rolled veal dish with baby spinach..We had the clam appetizer which was just OK(really not very tasty kind of blah)....That negative was not enough to take away from the 5 star experience..Thanks Joe and Joey!

Nice relaxing Italian restaurant. Eggplant parmesan was spot on. The tortellini alfred was rich and creamy. Finshed it off with made in house cannolis very good.

Great good, great service! Hidden gem in Saratoga. The gluten free penne vodka was amazing!
The staff at this restaurant was helpful & friendly, even though the restaurant was understaffed, & the restaurant has a nice family feel. I was there with three family members, & we were hoping to love the food there, but unfortunately did not. The best dish of the meal was a pasta special with garden vegetables. The worst, and unfortunately most expensive dish, was the rib eye steak special. The fat wasn’t trimmed and the meat was overcooked. The steak was advertised as being 14 oz, but less than half of it was edible. The other dinner dishes we had were okay, and we enjoyed tiramisu for dessert.

Went with a group of 10. The service was great- waitress was great. The Buffalo chicken meatball appetizer was terrible - they didn't season the meatball- the only flavor was the sauce. The saving grace were the entrees- absolutely delicious. I got the penne vodka with shrimp. It was SO good. I would defintely recommend and return.

My wife and I were staying at the Embassy Suites Hotel for a couple of nights and for dinner we decided to go to the Three Vines Bistro. They open up at 5:00 PM so we got there around 5:30. Our waitress Megan came over to serve us. Since it was the first time there, we decided on the 12" tomato & cheese pizza. I also ordered the baked clams oreganata. It was good. They only give you six little necks. Very tasty but I wish they could have been at least eight for the price but what the hell, everything else is up. Anyway, we went there for the second night and we had Megan again for our waitress. She is very friendly (yes, I know they work for tips) so stop typing... this I ordered on the appetizer the mussels. OMG! they ere tender in a red sauce with olives, garlic. It was fantastic! My wife ordered the Penne with vodka sauce and I ordered the linguine with mussels, calamari, shrimp. Delicious and very filling. I've must have passed this restaurant over a thousand times going into Purdey's Liquor Store which is right next door. The restaurant is very deceiving on the outside but inside great food, nice atmosphere and the staff excellent. We live only 15 minutes away. We were at the hotel while our home is being renovated. We will be going back for sure. This is a secret hide away for us. Definitely worth giving it a try. Saw other reviews that weren't good and that I couldn't understand. Anyway, give it a shot. You don't like it? you don't have to go back but. think you will like it.

We had reservations in Saratoga, so we need to find a nearby restaurant.I had been to 3 Vines Bistro a number of years ago and decided to try them again.....was NOT disappointed !! We were seated immediately, our waiter Jason came over and as very attentive.I ordered one of their famous meatballs and it was delicious.We ordered chicken saltimbocca and a risotta and both very fabulous. We shared the tiramisu for dessert & it was the best I had ever had.....3 Vines Bistro is a hidden gem in a city overrun with mediocre eateries !! A definite recommend!!
