The definition of good barbecue to me is having an amazing brisket as it is one of the harder things to smoke correctly. The fact that this account has a try tip sandwich and other innovative and creative menu ideas made me very intrigued. I was actually a little bit worried that with the menu as large as it is and dabbling in so many different things besides barbecue, that the barbecue part of the menu might be sacrificed but that was not the case. Their house barbecue sauce is excellent, the meat was fresh the service was great and everything had a great smoke ring and you can tell it was not yesterday's food like a lot of the other barbecue places in the area. It is actually in an amazing location right down the hill from Hudson Valley community college and a lot of residential and commercial spots. If you're in the area I would definitely stop in and check it out!

Also was able to chat with the owner about his intentions for the place. I like his idea. And I like his food also. There is no substitute for solid barbecue, and on the first shot, they scored with me. We tried moink balls, pulled pork sandwich, and the "I.W.G." Sandwich also. Both of them served with pickles, onions and a side of slaw. These sandwiches were large. Definitely a full meal. Excellent barbecue can always be pegged by the smoke level, and it was proper here. Smokey, spicey, moist - It hits all the right notes. I'm not really a sweet potato guy, but they have a sweet potato side to offer. The girl said they were spectacular. Sprinkled with brown sugar and marshmallows. The location is excellent also. Right next to a small pond with all kinds of wildlife. Nice to sit by the water and enjoy excellent barbecue. Dangerous to have good barbecue so close to my house. As far as ratings go, I'll start with 4 stars and progress as we try everything else.

The pizza place we wanted to go to had since closed (so sad!), so we decided to try Bimi's. Their specialty is definitely cheese, since they have the specialty cheese ship next door, so we started with the cheese board. All the cheese was divine. For dinner, I got the pork chop and my husband got the linguine Alfredo pasta dish which of course was quite rich and heavy. Both dishes were tasty, and I took a few bites of the chop back to our dog as a special little treat. The ambiance and service were the best part of my experience (the bathroom included). We would come to Bimi's again.

The restaurant itself had good vibes very busy and for how busy it was the service was great. I forgot what drinks we ordered, but I remember them being balanced and delicious. I really liked those hot honey deviled eggs. They were very unique and different and I would definitely order them again. They cooked our steak perfectly, medium rare, and we added shrimp and mac & cheese to that dish and we shared it. It was also very good. The restaurant is in a really good location right in downtown Saratoga Springs. Next time we're visiting, we will definitely be back because we really enjoyed it.

We had 7:30 PM reservations on a Thursday and were seated immediately. The atmosphere wasn't quite my style. The tile flooring felt a bit busy, and the seating is very simple with hard-back chairs. I think the space could benefit from a few cozier touches to match the quality of the food. That said, it was bustling and vibrant. The beverage program was great. We enjoyed a bottle of Pinot Noir, and I was impressed by the beer selection, which featured a lot of local breweries rather than the typical mainstream options. For starters, the French onion dip was phenomenal and is an absolute must-order. The Parker rolls were also highly recommended by our server and lived up to the hype. The bread is incredibly fluffy with just a hint of sweetness. For dinner, I had the crab spaghetti with squid ink, which was delicious and loaded with lump crab. It does have a briny, seafood-forward flavor, so it's best suited for those who enjoy that profile. The burger was a hit with the men at the table, although my fiancé wasn't a huge fan of the wood-fired ketchup, which has a distinct smoky flavor. We also tried the mushroom lasagna. Despite the name, it's not traditional lasagna noodles layered with mushrooms. Instead, mushrooms act as the layers. It wasn't what we expected, but it was still excellent. Overall, the food and service were outstanding, and I'd highly recommend Seneca. A few tweaks to the atmosphere could make it even better, but the quality coming out of that kitchen makes it a standout dining spot in Saratoga.

If it could not get any better we had the Zeppole Di San Giuseppe for dessert so fresh and delicious! Our server was outstanding and the staff were very friendly. This place is worth trying.

The waitstaff was quick, friendly, and professional. My biggest gripe was the food itself. My mother ordered the onion soup and it was...made wrong. It tasted alright but not like you would expect. It was wrong color, even, almost like they used chicken broth instead of beef. It lacked the depth that you expect with this dish. I ordered the Adirondack dip sandwich and this was also made wrong. The beef was under seasoned and over cooked. The sandwich was also missing the onions and the horseradish sauce they said it was served with so it was just meat and cheese. Overall the experience really wasn't awful, but I wouldn't choose this place myself.

We are ordered the double dip, Buffalo chicken and spinach artichoke. It took over twenty minutes for the dips, even tho the place was half empty. We had a feeling the entrees would arrive shortly and we were right. Halfway thru the dips the entrees arrived. Chicken piccata was bland, and the pasta was overcooked. The sauce was watery and there was only a slight taste of lemon. Not at all what it should have been. Haddock was obviously fresh, but again, bland. Served in a bath of butter, but no herbs, no discernible seasoning. Services was attentive, beers were cold, if somewhat overpriced. Don't know that I'll be back.

10/18/25 second visit…read more I said to the owner that we were here for 7 days and came to Olde Forge two times. This is certainly the place to hit while in the Berkshires. This is the old world tavern feel. I love the entrance with the brick walls and saloon doors to the dining. The bar I'd loaded with patrons and you can see all the beer steins hanging above head. Tonight I started with their delicious maple old fashioned! Then I ordered their onion soup....delicious. We also ordered the nachos which were per her as well. I asked Ashley our waitress what the signature dish was, she said the wings so we ordered a dozen. They were outstanding and delicious, crispy! For dinner I got their delicious burger with bacon and cheddar and fries, great stuff. My friends had the pork shoulder which they said was delicious and looked tender. My wife had the butter buttered chicken sandwich which She enjoyed. Again, this is a must hit spot. Go early and catch the sunset on the porch! Ashley was an awesome waitress and very friendly. 10/13/25 We had an awesome dinner at Olde Forge. Jessica our waitress took great care of us and her service was spot on. It's been a few days since we were there so I don't remember all the dishes, my apologies. I do regret the Mac n cheese was delicious and creamy! The quesadilla was great as well. My glazed steak was spicy and delicious, very tender. We will be back before heading back to NY. Highly recommended!
