    Great experience and prompt service. The menu has a variety of unique entrees. The only negative issue is that they charge $1.00 for a slice of tomato on my burger.

    we splurged for a nice dinner out up in Saratoga at Morrissys on Broadway. Slightly upscale atmosphere , nice sushi bar, with quieter dining area past the bar. We had some craft cocktails and split a lobster salad to start. Susan had seafood risotto while I had seared scollops. Nice selection of wines by the glass or bottle. Attentive and adequate wait staff, our server Emily was personable and knowledgeable. A place we plan to visit again.

    We rented the outdoor fire pits for a happy hour family group in January. It was snowing lightly. We dressed in layers and were fortunate the weather was just cold and not windy. The server was super attentive to us, walking through some slippery snow to serve us our drinks. The fire pits overlook the lake, but the snow washed out the view a bit. It was a really “cool” thing to do and we plan on booking the fire pits again next year. I would recommend the fire pits for a happy hour followed by dinner in the hotel.
