The Best of Saratoga
Fine Dining/Date Night
Whether inside, at a cozy table of booth, or soaking up the scene in the hip patio/bar (with retractable roof), you can't go wrong here. The food is SO good; THE place for a date night or small group dinner. Reservations are a must (though you may be able to snag a spontaneous spot at a bar - inside or out). Approximately an 8 minute walk from home - straight up Lake Avenue.

A five minute walk from home; perfect for a special date night. Reservations are a must (unless you grab one of the few spots at the bar spontaneously). The most incredible Italian food, prepared by Chef Danny and hosted by his parter Patti and attentive servers. A cozy, lively, bustling atmosphere that makes you feel like you're part of something. The food is incredible!

Outrageously good breakfast, brunch and lunch. Plus, the BEST chocolate chip cookies and baked goods. There is usually a wait on the weekends, so be ready. You can get on the wait list in advance, however, using the No Wait app through Yelp; then receive a text ten minutes before your table is ready. A 10 minute walk (or less) from home. This is the breakfast hotspot in Saratoga, for good reason! Closed Tuesdays and Wednesdays.
