Our three entrees were all excellent: Oysters Rockefeller, Chicken Breast Forestiere and Orange Sauced Salmon. The sauces were both fabulous and the oysters were some of the best ever. Restaurant is very traditional and a tad pricing but worth it. more

The service wasn't great and the food had no taste, I wouldn't say this is terrible, but probably not worth the high Saratoga prices. more
