Stephanie B.

Visiting Saratoga and you have to stop at Compton's. They were busy but still were able to seat my party of 7 super quick. Our orders were taken swiftly and our drinks and food came out fast. Classic American diner food kind of like a hole in the wall but everyone is friendly.

Turkey Club and Fries
Steffen R.

Classic Diner feel! Love it, the people and the food are always amazing, the service is always fast, never had a bad serving here before. It's a local favorite, a little small so expect a wait during breakfast rushes. They do grilled muffins here and if you don't know what that is I recommend you try one!

2 Eggs /HF/TOAST

Old school breakfast! Very simple flavors. Traditional scrambled egg, toast and home fries. Sweet staff! Quick and fresh!

Rich R.

The best diner. Excellent food, service, location. Comptons never disappoints. Fantastic breakfast sandwiches (bacon, egg and cheese), Eggs Benedict, Pancakes, everything!

Cornbeef hash and breakfast sandwich
Merry N.

A favorite place to visit anytime before they close for the day. Staff is great and food is freshly prepared. The decor hasn't changed for ages and that's the best part. Naturally retro. Cash only but there is an ATM conveniently located IN the restaurant. :-)

Chocolate chip pancakes and scrambled egg! I love Comptons.
Kristina M.

Compton's is by far the best place to get breakfast. Their pancakes are my favorite pancakes in the world and the corn beef hash is my husband's favorite! It's a small quaint place, and the service is great! I highly recommend Compton's!

One pancake.  3$  delicious

Oh My YUM! Sweet Mimi's is a must when you visit Saratoga…read moreSprings. They do not accept reservations so don't be surprised if there is a wait... even on a Thursday late morning. We didn't have to wait long. I think maybe like 10 minutes. It's a small quaint restaurant on Phila Street not far off of Broadway. We walked here from our hotel (Hilton) as parking anywhere/everywhere in Saratoga can be a challenge. There is street parking right in front of Sweet Mimi's but it'll probably be taken so you should probably just walk. And you'll appreciate the walk to help burn off a few calories of Sweet Mimi's delicious offerings. (And there are plenty to partake in.) We enjoyed the Cinnamon Roll French Toast and the Mediterranean Omelette. We did not leave disappointed. In fact, our tastebuds and tummies were so happy with our choices. The omelette actually came with the same challah bread that the french toast was made from. If I lived closer, I'd be buying that challah bread every week. It's so freakin' good! The french toast is HUGE! Really... you should share it. The several bites I took were incredibly satisfying. The cinnamon was just right. And because it was already sweet... we opted to forgo the syrup. The french toast also came with a bunch of blueberries, blackberries and raspberries!! The med omelette was filled with sausage, spinach and tomatoes. I loved every bite. I don't know when we'll be back tin Saratoga... but I will definitely be coming back to Sweet Mimi's when I do.

We finally got the time to go out and try this place and were underwhelmed for the usual amount of…read morewait time there is here. Seating is crowded, service--while overall nice--was rude when it came to the server we got. She may have been having a bad day, but definitely ended up taking it out on us. Ended up making us feel very unwelcome to the point we decided it was better to try and just get going. The granola was stale alongside the underripe blackberries in the parfait we'd ordered. Had an eye for something sweetly comforting and the food just doesn't match up. Overall, for the wait it has, it's not worth the mediocre food inside. Also, unrelated, but not exactly a place to stop by, get some coffee, and read as you'd maybe look for in a café. So if that's what you're looking for, I'd recommend elsewhere.

If you're looking for a solid meal on the main strip in Saratoga, The Merc has you covered. It's a…read morenice looking pub, with plenty of comfortable seating and a little patio on the street. The staff welcomed us in, and although they wouldn't let us sit outside (they were hoping for a four-top that never came), they treated us well. I was in the mood for a burger, and our server was effusive about the bacon jam on the Broadway Burger. When I was more into the classic Merc burger, he let me add bacon jam to that one, and I'm pretty sure they didn't even upcharge us for it. In any case, it was a great burger. A double patty smash with an excellent bun, plenty of cheese, and comeback sauce which I've never been sad about. They offer tater tots if you'd prefer them to fries, and I quite enjoyed them. In his list of recommendations, our server did not mention the baby kale caesar salad, but my wife was already set on it. It's a universal truth that places are not known for their salads, and The Merc is no exception. It was fine, I guess. It's the price my wife pays for occasionally ordering healthy, and she deserves everything she got. Unfortunately, she also wanted half of my burger, so I had to suffer as well. #marriage

A lot of club soda and ice added. For the price of the drinks, I didn't love that. If you're making a crafted cocktail, craft it. It's dark inside and cozy.

Come here. Skip Mimi's. trust me.

I was so excited to try this place. What a disappointment…read more Parking is incredibly difficult since it's in downtown Saratoga Springs, but that goes for all the restaurants in the area. I went to pick up a to-go order and was ignored for exactly 6 minutes as numerous employees walked by. Finally the manager told me from across the room to come back to the bar where I told him I was picking up an order. After getting back to my vehicle, I realized part of my order was missing. Sigh. I walked back to the restaurant and informed an older white lady what was missing. She told the younger lady who said "I know, I have it right here.". The older lady then very rudely said "well then I don't know why she's talking to me.". Excuse me? I explained that I had already gotten back to my car and realized part of my order was missing and had to walk back to get it. Neither women apologized. I got home and realized the chicken was incorrect. I paid extra for all dark meat, but received the four piece with breast, wing, leg, and thigh. At this point, I'm pretty pissed off. I called and told the woman who answered that my order was incorrect. Suddenly a gentleman was on the line. I asked if he was the one I dealt with earlier and he said he was. At this point, I told him what happened when I returned to the restaurant to get my missing item and he said he's had multiple issues with her already including today. He apologized for her behavior, their repeated mishaps, and comped the meal. I appreciate that the manager, Sal, was polite, professional, and corrected the mistake. However, the whole experience pissed me off. We will not return regardless of how good the food is due to the poor experience. Now, about the food: The pecan pie has a heavy bourbon taste with a strangely elongated hard crust. The filling was also very liquidity. The description says it comes with a home made whipped cream topping. It did not. The green beans and mashed potatoes were good, although cold. Cornbread and biscuits were good flavor wise, but both were very dry. Now the fried chicken is good. It's not great, but it does have a nice crispy skin and flavor. It is VERY heavy on the pepper with tons of large flakes under the skin. The pieces are also very small, especially the drumstick. The meal was not worth the $67 price tag.

Coming from NYC, we were not quite shocked by the prices, but if you're not used to dining in Manhattan, you might be. That said, the portions are of the upstate variety, so you may not want to order quite as many plates as you might in the city. (We were bursting at the end of the meal.) Our server was helpful in narrowing down all the things we wanted to order. We were a little more intrigued by the starters than the mains, and so we rolled with the wedge salad, the crispy oysters, and the imported burrata. These were all excellent decisions. The wedge is everything you ever wanted in a wedge salad. Pickled red onions for acid, bacon for bacon, roasted tomatoes, crispy onions for texture, all tied together by a creamy dill blue cheese dressing. I'm not exaggerating, this was one of the best wedges I can remember, and I've had more than my share. The burrata was burrata. The cheese was creamy, paired with some port wine apple jam for sweetness, fresh basil, and hazelnut nougat. It was quite good, if not exactly special, and a hearty plate with the grilled focaccia accompaniment. The crispy oysters was one of the best things I've eaten this year. Perfectly fried fresh oysters are never bad, but they were laid over this incredible corn pudding that was rich and creamy and set off by the bacon and bone marrow jam, and a bit of roasted poblano. Honestly, this dish alone made the entire experience. Truly. We suspected we may be going overboard with the starters, but we were full after they were done. The Falkland Islands sea bass we ordered for a main felt like as much of an afterthought as a $60 plate of fish can. To be honest, I expected to love its Asian flavor profile (miso-marinated, bok choy, shiitakes, snow pea salad, crispy wasabi and shallots), but it fell a little flat. Well cooked, but it was outshined by the oyster dish. One final note: If and when I return, I'll stick to wine over cocktails. I'm not sure if it's because it was a Tuesday and the B team was on call, but of the three cocktails I tried, two were off-balance, and just not of the caliber I expect at this price point, at a restaurant of this quality.
