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.
http://www.abeelsrestaurant.com/ 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.

Sunday dinner at Sperry's was also very enjoyable. After day of emptying coolers at the Track in the rain, anything more refined would have likely been lost on our crew.
The House Patte Plate was a big hit and everyone had the steak Au Poivre. All cooked perfectly to order. Not much drinking by us at dinner, but we ordered a ton off apps and the bill for our party of 8 was less than $50 a head including tip. Everyone left happy . For a group after the track, I would definitely do it again. On track - the Hatties Fried Chicken sandwich and cucumber salad are well worth checking out. Back to work, I think I will have a salad today... |

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. |

A good compromise between Dennys and Beverlys (you couldnt possibly get more polar opposites), is the Spring Street Deli. Better known for its delicious lunch time sandwiches, Spring Street Deli has very good breakfast sandwiches served on hard rolls. Their egg sandwiches are tasty and they get you your food fast and if you want to sit there, there are plenty of seats.
Located less than 1/2 mile from the racetrack, on the corners of Spring & Court (off of Union Ave). Highly recommend it! |

Sat outside and agree the service was a bit lacking as far as attentiveness. Food more than made up for it though. The breakfast sausage had some different seasoning. Think maybe it was some curry, delicious My brother got Crab Benedict which was also outstanding. Pancakes were the icing... I guess I am just used to the "silly" prices we get stuck paying for food in NYC/Long Island. More than a diner, but worth it in my estimation. |

Have either lived or vacationed in the Saratoga environs since I was a kid.
Suggestions for places to eat - 2010 During the meet, we rarely go downtown Saratoga to eat. The place is a zoo, and I don't think the restaurants are all that good to begin with and most are overpriced. Don't mind paying premium prices for a meal if it's a premium meal. Really haven't been able to find that in downtown Saratoga. Loved when Chez Sophie was in that little diner on Route 9 just going into Saratoga. A few places we'll go to off Broadway in Saratoga The Parting Glass - great place if you're hungry. I go there just because I love their draft birch beer. The Horse Shoe - across from the track on Nelson Ave. - breakfast and lunch are great. Pretty crowded and very noisy after the races. Not particularly fond of their dinners. Sushi Tai on Phila Street. I don't eat sushi, but they have an extensive Tai menu. Edit to add on Broadway - Broadway Pizzeria - I think it's the best pizza in the area. Ballston Spa Augies has already been mentioned, but we never go there during the meet. They don't take reservations, and your clothes will go out of style waiting for a table. It's busy enough before and after the meet. 51 Front Street is a relatively new restaurant /wine bar and quite good. Galway If you want to drive out Route 29 from Saratoga, there's the Village Pizzeria. Wonderful italian food. A little further up Route 29 on Galway Lake is the Cock & Bull. Best beef in the area. Lake George Blue Water - lovely sitting out on their open air deck at sunset. Food's pretty much standard fare - but good and reasonably priced. South Glens Falls - Route 9 Luisa's - on the short list of my favorite Italian restaurants. I loathe Sergio's. Fitzgerald's - great food. Kind of on the order of Winslow's (another great place), and their food is just as good. Bolton Landing If you feel like taking a drive on Saratoga Tuesday, go up Route 9 out of Lake George to Bolton Landing. The Sagamore Hotel's outside/lakeside restaurant for lunch. Heaven. There's also the Lakeside Lodge on the main drag that's nice for lunch - a covered outside porch. Don't know why, but we've yet to eat at The Wishing Well. Must put it on the agenda for this year.
