For Italian, you can not beat Auggies in Balston Spa. Definitely eat there your first night because you will have leftovers for a week.

Nice atmosphere with a neat outside bar but the food is just average and the prices are what you would expect for downtown Saratoga (high). Would advise eating somewhere else and only drinking here.

I can't believe no one has mentioned Winslow's. It's less than a mile past the Wishing Well on 9N. Great food and large portions for a reasonable price. They specialize in turkey dinners but the rest of the menu is excellent as well. Italian food is very good and steaks are very large. They accept reservations (recommended during race meet). The only negative to note is they don't accept credit cards. Nothing fancy like the Well, but a great meal for a decent price.

I always enjoy The Olde Bryan Inn. I recommend the French Onion Prime Rib Sandwich and the Gorgonzola and Horseradish encrusted strip steak.

Never been but I live right down the road. Heard the food is pretty good.

Its very hard to believe any restaurant can stay in business not accepting credit cards. That just blows my mind.

We.nt to Beverly's for breakfast for the first time yesterday. I'm pretty confident in saying it is among the best breakfast food I have ever eaten.

The blueberry pancakes were like electric chair good.

We ate at Abeels and liked it. Though it seemed that the menu was a bit limited. They also make pizza there if you are bringing kids.

If you go to P.J.'s either get a table or try calling in your order and picking it up. Went there prime time the other night and waited 45 minutes just to order. Good food but be wary of having to wait.

Use to practically live there. Well I actually lived in the closest house to Beverly's (corner of Phila & Henry) and ate at Bevs 4-5 times a week for about 5 years. The food is outstanding there but the prices are just plain silly and I have never been a huge fan of their service.

Blueberry pancakes are probably my favorite breakfast food and Beverlys does them better than anywhere else in Saratoga.

Did you have the coffee there? When I use to go there, they served Green Mountain, which isnt bad, but not that good either.
