    We’ve been here many times, but this time was by far the best. Carnivore special was amazing. Oysters fresh and delicious, as were the sides. Happy hour has pretty good cocktails as does Morrissey’s next door.

    Coquilles St. Jacques was dry The description for the duck was inaccurate, it had an unpleasant mix of hot spices I wasn’t expecting. Nothing about the atmosphere felt luxurious. I was seated in a spot where a light shining on me was like a spot light. There were people dressed in tennis shorts and t-shirts. It wasn’t a classy crowd like you would find at the other Saratoga restaurants we frequent. Disappointed in the experience, don’t need to go back.

    the location is great; however, parking could be an issue. The restaurant itself is beautiful. Food selection was limited and for the price was not good at all. We were sick as soon as we got home. The salmon was not cooked all the way thru and the steak had no flavor and was also raw in the middle even asking for medium. No way to send it back because the outside looked charred (much like the name of the restaurant), so we didn't want a hockey puck back. 20$ for French fries is a little much. Plating was the piece of meat and some green salad everything else is a al a cart (which is fine) but wish plating was more presentable for the pricing. Wine selection was good they had a whole book to select from.

    The food is always delicious here and I enjoyed it very much. I was surprised and disappointed, though, that they were out of a scotch (Glenrothes) which they list in their spirits menu on a Friday night.
