Nice to have them open on Thursday evenings now. Great food (as before COVID-19) with our favorite menu items. Had the Seafood Platter and it was excellent. Homemade desserts, too.

Saratoga Grill has a warm, classy atmosphere. Located above an antique store, the stairs are a bit narrow, but the restaurant opens up with a stunning wall of windows offering a lovely view of downtown historic Hillsborough, NC. The food is delicious. I had a cup of clam chowder, grilled BLT with melted Provolone, mixed green salad with strawberry vinaigrette, hazelnut fudge pie, and coffee. The menu offered other wonderful delicacies that I look forward to going back and trying.

I've enjoyed every meal I've had at Saratoga Grill. The staff is friendly and the atmosphere is relatively causal with an upscale menu. Early bird and nightly specials make Saratoga Grill worth checking out!

Excellent place to grab a light lunch or a sit down dinner. We have been several times, and the service and food are always wonderful. Plus, it's such a beautiful bright space with big windows facing the main street in downtown.

Our favorite restaurant in the Triangle. Nice relaxing atmosphere, great food at great prices and a very friendly staff. Try their surf and turf and their New England clam chowder is the best we've ever had (and we're from New England)!

Went here for lunch for business. The town was the halfway spot for us. He place had great amosphere with nice menu selections. It offers great food for a wonderful price. Also good service. Would highly recommend.

We like this restaurant in the heart of downtown Hillsborough. It's a flight up, but worth the climb. Reservations strongly suggested. It is popular. Good food, well presented. Walk-ins do not mind the wait.

Service and food were great. It is a pretty place. However, it was very cold, heat could not have been working at all.

Fabulous! This place is always amazing. The honey almond salmon is spectacular. Service is always great and friendly. Reasonabke prices for awesome food. Perfect for a date night, family night out, or any occasion!

Very impressed. Wasnt sure at first because the website said children friendly..but no childs menu. They will make whatever you want just ask. Food was amazing. Steak cooked perfectly...Linguini with shrimp was delicious. Only down side...no sweet tea. :( We are in the south. Sweet tea a must.

Our favorite Saturday afternoon lunch spot. My daughter loves the French onion soup!! Thank you for providing great food and great service! Much love from the Ramsey family and friends!!

Very kind and attentive staff, the meal was delicious and well prepared, but the dessert . . . The Italian Lemon Cream Cake was absolutely divine

Delighted to see Saratoga Grill up and running again for lunch and dinner. Great place with excellent service and good food. A must-dine location in Hillsborough! Recommend highly.

Had the chicken salad and my husband the Turkey Reuben for lunch today, plus the clam chowder. It was sooo good. Good job Coleen and staff. Good portions enough left for another meal!!

The best yet !!! This is one of many times I have been here . Had the portobello mushroom with blue cheese !!!! Just a suggestion I wonder how the mushroom would be on an English muffin. The texture would be a little better. Find Saratoga grill excellent!! Thanks

This is a hidden gem in downtown Hillsborough! Love their grilled seafood. The strawberry vinaigrette topping is a must-have for salad. Will definitely go there again.

Soup Special tasted like a cup of salt with soup added instead of a cup of soup with a "bit" of salt. Exceed Salmon special. Excellent Tasty Delicious Crab Cakes, Very tasty walnut choclate torte, Coffee was serve ice Cold & replacenent was si so in temperature & flavor Service was flawless. Atmosphere was reasonally quieter than most noisy place.

Visited Saratoga Grill with family today and had an outstanding experience. Atmosphere is warm, with nice decor and comfortable setting. We ordered onion soup and clam chowder- both excellent. Entrees from burger to taut to salmon were all excellent. Seafood plate was cooked perfectly. Great selection of wines. Deserts were all amazing and we had the privilege to try them all!!! Colleen and Adam are very welcoming. We will return as we plan for lunch or dinner visiting Hillsborough or nearby.

So grateful to be introduced to this gem! Great food, gorgeous atmosphere, and the best service I have ever gotten. We were on a strict timeline and the server took our orders, delivered our amazing food, and brought us our checks in such a timely manner that we were able to make our deadline without any fuss.

Food was delicious, staff was friendly. Prices were more than fair. We will be back!

We had a lovely Friday night dinner at Saratoga Grill. The ambience was inviting. Adam, Coleen, and their staff were excellent. Adam’s wine selection is amazing and really well thought out. My wife started the meal with the New England clam chowder and had the surf and turf as the main course. It was fantastic! The filet was cooked to perfection and the salmon is one of the best items on the menu. I had the white wine clams and the calamari appetizer to start. Both dishes were delicious and paired perfectly with the wine. I had the scallops as the main course. Let’s just say I was impressed! Coleen’s homemade desserts were incredible. My favorite was the coconut cake and the passion fruit panacotta. Great place to have a great meal at an affordable price! Thank you!!

I ordered the Halibut that was featured. I'm not sure why because I'm not a big fan of fish. It was DELICIOUS! It had some sort of bread crumb mix with roasted tomatoes. I can't even describe it. I don't have a sophisticated palate, but the blend of flavors was magic. The fish was flaky and cooked perfectly. They also had Mahi which I will be trying next!

Great place for lunch. Nice wine list.

Fantastic fare at a reasonable price. Great staff, friendly and helpful. Scallops were perfectly cooked and steak was as well. Casual and easy going atmosphere. Best meal I have had in the past year. Wish we were locals!

Excellent food and service. It is a small area but very quaint. I had Honey Almond salmon which was cooked perfectly. I would definitely go back. Prices at lunch are very reasonable.

This place has delicious food. Never been disappointed! My twin and I were celebrating our Birthday with our significant others. Everyone's food was wonderful, as were the bar drinks and wait staff. Definitely a place to visit again.

In over two decades, we have never had anything but a wonderful experience at Saratoga Grill. Great food with a varied and affordable menu. Their seafood dishes are marvelous, as are the soups. Lovely atmosphere. Impeccable service from an always friendly and helpful staff. Still the best place to dine when you're in town. A true Hillsborough tradition.

This was my first lunch at Saratoga since pre-COVID. I was glad that I made a reservation because it was very busy. After enjoying a perfectly cooked, delicious meal and excellent service… I understand why you need a reservation. It’s a hidden treasure that you don’t want to miss!

The prices here are amazing. They are so low, and the food is delicious. I've been in Hillsborough since 2003 and I've never noticed this place. It's like the best kept secret. I go for lunch and there is always a wait, sometimes I have to take a table in the back. Their burgers are amazing and they are all temperatures. Their seafood is delicious and at reasonable price. I've had: the scallops and they are nice and tender, not tough and rubbery; the crab cakes, which doesn't have too much filler; the salmon is nice and tender, and their steak has a nice flavor. They serve a fresh salad with entrées at lunch, and they have a really good strawberry dressing. I would eat here everyday since it's close to home...

A very busy little gem. My second visit and once again perfect. The waitstaff is very efficient and friendly. The food was great and can’t wait to eat here again. I had the seafood platter and my friend had a beautiful salad that she loved.

So glad they're open again! Currently eating their locally famous clam chowder... if possible, it's better than it ever was (and it was already one of my favorite foods in this town!). Sweet tasty clams, bacon, cream, delicate herbs, perfectly fresh and delicious.

Awesome Restaurant! I eat here (mostly to go ) probably once a week. I typically get the early bird special honey almond salmon which is fantastic… It’s actually less expensive for me to go to Saratoga grill and have them cook it for me than it is for me to buy the groceries and cook it myself. The people that own it in the waitstaff are always super friendly most of them have been working there as long as I have lived in Hillsborough. Typically you can walk in on the weekdays but you might want to get a reservation on the weekend… Ask for a window seat over looking Churton. Nothing too fancy here but always a good meal and five stars😊 Bryan

Great food and staff. Celebrated my guys birthday. Bloody Marys, crab cakes, ahi tuna, steaks, scallops, chocolate cake. What more can you ask for?

A wonderful place to stop for lunch while hiking in the area. A small local restaurant in the downtown area. Service and food were both amazing. My only warning would be that the seating filled up within 30 minutes of opening as regulars filled this hidden gem. If I lived any closer, I would be one of them.

Outstanding experience at the Saratoga grill! Food was excellent, service was superb! We had a great time for lunch! I highly recommend a visit if you've never been here. I plan to return in the future.

Charming and great food in the Southern tradition. White table clothes and very nice, simple decor. There is a large staircase to climb so it is not wheelchair accessable, but otherwise highly recommended.

Outstanding hospitality! Adam and Colleen worked with me to created the wedding reception of the bride and grooms' dreams. Because we were out of town, communication was made easy with an initial phone call followed by emails to finalize arrangements. Selections and pricing was clear and straight forward making additions/subtractions easy. They even coordinated with the local baker whom we had make and deliver the wedding cake. Everything from the table arrangements to the cake and reception tables were in place upon our arrival. The staff joyously saw to our orders and needs through the entire event. I can't say enough good things about our experience. The food was outstanding! So many genuine compliments from our guests from the delicious food to the great wait staff and atmosphere were voiced to me at the event and later in the week- the over all impression: very impressive. Everything was on point; a true pleasure working with and being hosted by folks that not only love what they do but who do it so very well and thoughtfully.

Great lunch place with good food and wonderful staff. It’s not hard to find, but it is upstairs just in case you miss it.

This place is like stepping on to the set of Steel Magnolias and I mean that in the best way. From the creaking wooden floor, the clinking cutlery, sweet tea everywhere I looked (or wine and light beer) and southern charm, it was great from start. The excellent service and food matched it. It was a 95 degree day in Hillsborough (and you really must visit here if you have not yet for food, spirits, and art) so we ate a light lunch of chicken salad and grilled chicken. But tell you what, ya'all will enjoy that! Just go!

Comfortable restaurant,delicious seafood and other American style foods.It is located in Hillsboro downtown.If you hike in the morning,maybe Saratago will be your best choice of lunch.

SO GOOD! Love to bring my kids here but also a great date night. Food is delicious. Adam and staff treat you like family. Make sure you order dessert—homemade cakes can’t be beat. And try the French onion soup.

Nice little restaurant. The menu has several very good seafood dishes. The clam chowder was amazing. Staff was friendly and attentive.

Lovely experience. I brought some guest in for Argentina and they were very impressed by the food and warmth of the staff.

This is my favorite place to eat in Hillsborough. I love the Honey Almond Salmon. The service is excellent.

We found ourselves in the cutest historic district and stopped in for lunch (from out of town). The restaurant is small, quaint and bright - I’m sure a local treasure. We ate the recommended lunch specials and were very happy. Kudos to the owner. Service and food was great.

This place never fails to impress. I had the lunch surf and turf today and it was awesome. It came with a delicious salad and a scone. The service is always top notch. Definitely one of our favorite restaurants in the area. We'll definitely be back!

Highly recommend! I've tried most of the food spots in downtown hillsborough and this place is in a league of its own. I'm a burger and fries kind of guy so I ordered the hamburger with french fries. The burger was perfectly cooked and incredibly delicious. The french fries were the best I've ever had. I was literally confounded by how perfect they were, I didn't know they could be that good. I'm pretty sure the people next to me caught me staring at the fries with wonder.

My family had a wonderful experience here a few weeks ago. We were very well-received, even with our special needs (food allergies). They made us feel so comfortable - it honestly felt like we were being hosted by old friends or family. We will certainly be back. Thank you so much for the great care and fantastic meal!

We love Saratoga Grill! It has such a great classic menu with a wide range of specials that really show how experienced and worldly the owners are. Their seafood is fantastic and best eaten in house (who gets seafood to go??) since almost all seafood is best right when it’s prepared and can get rubbery if it sits. The burgers and fries are hands down my favorite in the whole area—crave them regularly! For someone who can’t eat dairy, their consideration in kitchen adjustments and wide non-dairy options in menu make it so easy to eat more than the same 1 item over and over (like at many other places). Cheers to Saratoga!

This is a cozy spot with amazing food. Their scones are amazing as is their honey almond salmon! Great spot for a week night date or to take the family.

I got the scallops and seasonal risotto and my friend got the swordfish, everything was GREAT!!! Service was 10/10, food was 10/10 and the owner is very nice!

This is my favorite restaurant in Hillsborough. You are definitely going to want a reservation as they always get seated first. My favorite dish is the honey almond salmon. I’ve had the steak a couple of times and I found it to be a little bland but I’m not going to fault them for that. It is really just my preference. There was nothing actually wrong with it. Their salad is supreme and the scone type bread you get is really good.

My favorite place to eat in Hillsborough. Everything is fresh and delicious.

We both got the burger topped with scallops. Just amazing, incredible! Salad was great. Really fresh ingredients! We only visit the area once a year, but this is our #1 stop when we do.

A charming and quaint restaurant in the middle of charming and quaint downtown Hillsborough. My wife and I stopped by for lunch, and really enjoyed the whole experience. Wife had the honey almond salmon, and I had the Reuben sandwich with (amazing) clam chowder. Food was exceptional and service very attentive. Highly recommend!

wonderful atmosphere and location in historic downtown Hillsborough NC. delicious chicken sandwich (incredible and wide seafood selections on menu, heads up) lovely presented with side salad, cold beer IPA and great street view from window seat. would absolutely recommend Saratoga Grill!

I love this place. The food I've had is delicious. I'm a vegetarian so i can't speak to the meat and seafood items, but they sounded good as they were described on the menu. They have unbelievable cakes, which vary from day to day. Their scones are little, but they are delicious. The service was excellent. They were very attentive. The atmosphere is very upscale and pleasant. The food is a little expensive but well worth the price. The only problem i had was getting up the stairs that lead to the restaurant, since I have some mobility issues.

The staff here took very good care of us. My steak was just a tad too well done for my taste, and I did not complain, but server noticed I did not eat it and the manager came over personally and apologized, offered me another, and removed from my bill. I work in customer service, and that was top notch.

Excelente atención, y sus platos son exquisitos. Siempre volvemos.❤️

Exelente lugar..exelente comida y ambiente

¡Le doy 4.8 estrellas! Llevé a mi acompañante a celebrar su cumpleaños y fue fabuloso. La trucha es imperdible y la sopa de cebolla francesa es exquisita. La ensalada también estaba muy rica. El único plato que no me gustó fue el sándwich de mariscos; si le cambiaran el nombre a "ensalada de cangrejo", ya que le faltaba marisco, y le añadieran un poco más de condimento, estaría increíble. El vino estaba bueno y el ambiente del segundo piso era encantador. Valió la pena el viaje y estamos deseando volver.

Mi esposa y yo tuvimos el placer de almorzar recientemente en Saratoga Grill. Nos gustó el ambiente luminoso, con obras de arte enmarcadas en las paredes blancas, iluminadas por los grandes ventanales arqueados. Estaba bastante concurrido, y los comensales estaban tranquilos y contentos. Dos camareros atendieron a todos. Fueron tranquilos y amables, y se movieron con eficiencia y sin prisas. La comida estuvo estupenda. Disfrutamos de una cena de tres tiempos con vino. Empezamos con una sopa de almejas de Nueva Inglaterra y una sopa de centolla con jerez. Morgan me ayudó a elegir mi plato principal y mi vino: pez espada con salsa, servido con ensalada, y un refrescante Gruner Veltliner. A mi esposa le encantó su pastel de cangrejo, acompañado de lo mismo. Colleen y Adam le dieron un toque de calidez a nuestro maravilloso día. Organizo mis días en función del trabajo, el mantenimiento y mis responsabilidades. Soy culpable de no priorizar una buena comida o cena en un restaurante como Saratoga Grill. Esta visita me afectó positivamente. Espero volver.

Almuerzo del 14/9/24… ¡Qué descubrimiento tan maravilloso! Nuestro camarero fue muy amable. La comida estaba deliciosa. Las raciones estaban muy buenas. Pedí la ensalada César con salmón de la mariscada de mi marido. ¡La ensalada César y el salmón estaban buenísimos! La mariscada de mi marido (vieiras, camarones y ensalada) estaba perfecta. Le encantó el aderezo mil islas (de elaboración propia). ¡Los scones estaban tan ricos que compramos seis para llevar! ¡Una experiencia maravillosa en general! Cabe destacar que el restaurante está en el piso de arriba… ¡el entorno es encantador!

Excellent food. I had the pork special, the meat was great, well seasoned, and the vegetables were also pretty great. The waitstaff were professional and formal. The atmosphere of the restaurant was that of a retirement home. The decor was very outdated, the drop ceiling and decorations were very unbecoming to the fashionably old bones of the building. The cloth napkins smelled distressingly horrible, unfolding one was like cracking open a washing machine after forgetting your clothes for a week. I'd still recommend the place. The target age group seems to be in their twilight years, but if that describes you or a friend I'd recommend you try the place for an occasion.

The New England Clam Chowder was incredible! The entrees were good. It was a nice atmosphere with good service.

Great restaurant in a small town. The food was great the service was excellent. The staff is very friendly and courteous. Had lunch with a couple of co-workers, but will dine again with the family.

I've been coming here for years of lunch dates with my mother and grandmother. The food is always delicious, particularly the lobster bisque, if you come in early enough to get it before they run out. The service is usually friendly and well-timed considering the size of the restaurant. I would highly recommend calling ahead for reservations as they are nearly always busy. A seat by the window has a lovely view of the courthouse square. Lastly there is the is a delightful little shop located below the restaurant which is very fun if you want to make a day of it.

Have been to the Saratoga Grill three times, twice for New Year's Eve. Last time we were a group of 14. Kitchen and staff aptly handled the party. Food was excellent, portions were ample. Best to stay with their wines and bottled beer, not sure if there is a bartender since a bloody Mary was a challenge. I will be returning for dinner in future with friends and family.

Enjoyed a lunch here with Co workers. Very nice atmosphere and friendly staff. My French onion soup was missing the bread/ crouton but the salad with chicke. Was very good and fresh. Their house dijon vinegrette was delicious.

Kid friendly (we went 5pm) and service was great. Some in our group liked their dinners more than others in the group. I had the special and it was okay but not fantastic. We often get take out there and it's always great when we do that

My mom and I heard about this place and couldnt wait to try. We drove from Mebane and were so excited and didnt know you had to climb over a flight of stairs to get there.My mom is elderly and cant do stairs. Very disappointing that no elevator too. We got take out and the scallops were supposed to be cooked well for me and were not. I just put in in a pan and seared when i got home. They honey mustard dressing and french onion soup were amazing. The scallops were great as well once I cooked them more for my taste.

We had burgers. They were overcooked. We ate at lunch. My Grandson's both had seafood small portions, but good.

Nice seafood options and plentiful portions. Very busy, so reservations are a good idea. Steep stairs.

We stopped in spontaneously for a weekday lunch. The atmosphere was calm and nicely decorated. The employees were attentive and kind. The food was pretty good with the exception of the pineapple slaw (served on top of white fish) which was fantastic. Also, not the kind of place I would expect to see a lot of young children, but they brought a basket of bristle blocks for my 4 year old. That might seem like a small, side note but it made all the difference in allowing us to enjoy our meal.

Dining at the Saratoga Grill is both literally and metaphorically an up-and-down experience. It is located above a shop and accessible via a narrow stairway. Upon reaching the top, you’ll find yourself in a tastefully decorated loft area-turned-dining room. The wall art and lights make for a homey, welcoming feeling. However, in lieu of a hostess stand, you are asked to wait by a small table against the far wall, which puts you awkwardly in the path of servers moving to and fro. Tables are also positioned somewhat close together though not uncomfortably so. Once seated, you’ll encounter a menu full of classics: clam chowder, French onion soup, a Reuben, a burger, etc. The selection of fish and seafood (including a honey almond salmon and a few scallop dishes) is commendable though, and vegetarians can find solace in a portobello sandwich and a few salad offerings. For my first visit, I went with a crab salad half sandwich with a cup of French onion soup and a mixed greens salad. The food was competently prepared but unremarkable. The sandwich, as expected, was faux crab, and neither it nor the soup or salad were elevated in any way. However, my wife reported that the hot pastrami sandwich that I brought her was quite tasty. The pedestrian food here is partially offset by very affordable prices. Whole sandwiches with salads run $8 and under, and for that price, you can substitute a half sandwich and soup while keeping the salad. Downtown Hillsborough is not known for frugality, so this was a welcome surprise. Saratoga Grill seems to do a fairly brisk lunch business, and, as such, the kitchen moves at a pace that reflects the volume. Servers are friendly and attentive though, and you won’t go without water whilst waiting for that food. Overall, Saratoga Grill is hard to pin down. The pricing and availability of seafood dishes are certainly draws, but the so-so food and quirky layout/location are causes for hesitation.

With my in-laws in town, we made reservations for Saratoga Grill to try something different a little outside our normal Triangle establishments. One problem popped up right off the bat: Nowhere on their website does it mention that they are located on the second floor of their building with no elevator. One person in our party was blind and had a very hard time making it up the dark, narrow stairs. If they had just had a notice on their website about this, we would have known and not been surprised. As for the food, there was nothing to make it stand out from any number of similar restaurants in the area. I tried the scallops and cheddar burger as it sounded interesting. The combination of the textures of the scallops and the meat did not sit right with me. The rest of the table's meals were nothing outstanding.

Good food, casual location, but took 45 minutes to bring a couple of sandwiches out. Definitely a casual establishment, and maybe need to hire some more help in the kitchen

First time I ever had a bad meal there. Ordered the special and the fish was very fishy and smelled super strong. I sent it back. Took a full 37 minutes to get a burger to replace the fish. Burger was great but came with no lettuce, tomato or even a pickle. They had a large birthday party going on and it really affected the service, which was very poor. Go out to eat very seldom so it was a real disappointment from Saratoga, where it is usually very good.

Horrible parking on Churton, PERIOD! Neither cud I park behind buildings or side streets. Finally got a spot on the street. I brought my 87 year sis for her birthday. First and last time. No handicap provisions whatsoever and many stairs up to 2nd level restaurant. Obviously grandfathered in...No ramps. I almost left then. I had honey smoked salmon, passable, small portion, maybe 4 oz, and salad served on the plate was small. At $16 both shd've been separate and larger. Sis had mussels cheeseburger.... nightmare. Served on regular, bun too small for all of that. I asked them to cut in half but brought to her to cut. I tried but fell apart and soggy bottom due to mussels...not a way to put seafood on a burger. Upon asking them to serve open face, they brought cheeseburger (no mussels upon my request) meat on 1 half and zero on the other. No lettuce, tomato, onion....had to ask for it. In the meantime, I'm done way b4 hers was edible. LSS, quality and bang for the buck, can't compare w.The Longhorn. Lunch in Hillsboro is not worth the hassle especially with a handicap person who has trouble walking.... neither can those streets/restaurants accommodate a walker or wheelchair that I can see. Attention City Planner: Do something! I won't b back, at least not with sis and definitely not Saratoga.

Seafood-focused restaurant in downtown Hillsborough. A little bit of everything on the menu. Courteous staff.

This was my husband and I first time dining at the Saratoga Grill. The staff was exceptional friendly, the food was ok, and reasonable priced. The layout is rather interesting, from climbing up the narrow stairway, to the awkwardly placed tables. All in all, we had a good experience.

Have you ever had a Reuben without Thousand Island? My wife would have if she hadn’t asked for it. It arrived on the side. That’s still not the same, though, because the flavor doesn’t get cooked in and it’s cold. The honey almond salmon was rather good, but came on the same plate as the salad. So I got to discover that honey glaze and bleu cheese don’t mix well. Then…no sweet tea. I understand Saratoga is NY, but Hillsborough isn’t. Learn to make NC tea. Learn to love it. Serve it. Or at least steep your tea long enough to imbue some flavor. My wife was better off with water and lemon. On the plus side, service was good. Our waitress was friendly and never let our glasses empty—without hovering. But she didn’t offer us patio seating or a wine/beer menu…which later guests received. Spotty. Would we return? Maybe. The food wasn’t bad, but at this price point I expect a bit of attention to detail.

SG will ask you to pay 75 cents for lettuce, tomato and onion on your hamburger. Why not just build that into the price? They will also ask you to pay an extra 2 dollars for fries with your chicken sandwich instead of a side salad. Makes me wonder what else they will nickel and dime you for. Meh.....that's the world today.

I met a friend for lunch here. It is a good place to meet and talk, not too loud in general. Reservations are recommended, even for lunch, which was not obvious on the website. The food was okay. I love scallops, so that was my dish of choice. These scallops were a bit overdone, definitely not melt in your mouth perfection. This place gets the job done, but I can give it no more than 3 stars.

If there is a notice that in order to dine at the restaurant you must climb up steep stairs, I didn’t see it. It’s very difficult for anyone with walking difficulties.

Service was great. French onion soup was good. Had the grouper special. Fish was cooked well but unseasoned. I think it was supposed to have some theme or flavor but couldn’t taste it. Livened up quite a bit with a bit of added salt. Salad was basic and could have a bit more to it, some more veg or something with crunch.

We have visited this restaurant many times for dinner in the past, but this was the first time at lunch. It was very busy with some large groups present, but we were a party of two. We ordered salads with protein added, chicken and salmon respectively. The salad with the salmon arrived without it and it took two requests and nearly 20 minutes to get it delivered to the table. The portion was skimpy at best and not the most appetizing piece ever experienced. Additionally, one of the wait staff wears WAY too much scent - it was overpowering and lingered after they left the table. It's disheartening to have this experience when it has been so incredibly great at the dinner hour.

Service was great, prompt and friendly. Atmosphere good too! Food was very mediocre and underwhelming, without much options either. Had a burger, turkey club sandwich and grilled cheese.

This was our second time to eat there on a Friday night and it definitely was not as high of a standard as our first. The was an odor that I vaguely remembering smelling in my grandmother's house that I didn't notice the first time. The food was mediocre at best, the scallops did not even have a nice browning to them at all and the "award winning" clam chowder was probably the worst I've tasted, it had way too much spice, mostly rosemary over powered it and it didn't taste very fresh. Definitely disappointed but we live in Hillsborough and most likely will give it another shot thinking it may have been a bad night.

Came here today for a spontaneous lunch since we were in the area. Place was super cute and charming, staff was friendly however the menu lacked detail and when asking the staff what the details to the food items were they did not seem to have the answers for us. It took 20min to get a refill on water and 45min to get our food orders. Food was pretty good just was lacking some. Overall cute place with good food but probably wouldn’t go back.

Worst meal I’ve had in many years. Staff were nice but the food was truly terrible. Not much more to say sadly.

I was sick and called to get 1 bowl of chowder...NO SOUP FOR YOU! It's new year eve and we won't fill a to-go bowl for you. End of conversation. Well then, I will NEVER fill your coffer.

Abysmal in every way imaginable. Our complimentary bread was cold and stale. Our crab dip had bread pieces that tasted like they'd been made a year ago, frozen, warmed, frozen again, and then set out to pasture on our table. Our tablecloth was crusted over with previous diners' droppings. Our bread and appetizer plates were not clean and had food stains on them. Our napkins smelled like mildew. Oh, and they have the beer selection of a 90's restaurant. I should've asked for a free meal, but instead I was simply happy to escape as quickly as possible and frequent another establishment on the same street. Never again.

We had lunch at Saratoga on Monday, January 27. Four of us ordered a burger, all medium rare. One burger was medium rare, the 3 others were overcooked and burnt. One of us asked that the burger be returned because the burnt layer was very thick. The replacement burger was again burnt and completely overcooked. How difficult is it to cook a burger???? The waitress asked whether we wanted lettuce, tomato and onion with our burgers. No mention there was an extra cost involved. And we had not noticed that there were charges of $.25 for the lettuce, $.25 for the tomato, $.50 for the onion in small print on the menu. Since the waitress asked we ordered some of these items. Burgers with these options had 1 small lettuce leaf, 1 small tomato slice and 1 small onion slice. To be charged for these items especially given the size is ridiculous. The issue is not the dollar amount but that there would be 1) a separate charge and 2) a tiny quantity. I can assure you we will NOT be returning to this restaurant.

I recently took my friend here for her birthday, and it was my first time eating here.. I ordered the fillet and it was the toughest steak I've ever eaten in my life. I could've made a better steak myself for cheaper. Honestly, I had to spit it out in my napkin and I couldn't even eat it .. I paid $40 for that. I'm just overall unhappy with the quality of the food. It was very disappointing.
