    We had a party of 10 including 3 children and the service was flawless. Perfectly ideal especially when feeding our kids. The waiter Gabe was on his game. No mistakes and we couldn't have been happier.

    From the moment we entered and gave our names to the Hostess, then were led to our table, the experience was outstanding. We were greeted promptly by Todd, our server who was wonderful to talk to. He explained the menu, asked if we had any allergies, likes/dislikes, etc. He noticed that my guest and I hadn’t seen each other in a while and were talking non stop so he gave us time to order. My Cobb salad was such a generous portion topped with corn, avocado, tomato, cucumber, egg and blue cheese (I requested no bacon) that I could eat only half and took the remainder home. My friend ordered the Crispy Chicken Basket and loved it all. We chatted with Todd a bit and discovered he and I were both past Disney Cast members and spoke of our fortunate time there. The ambiance is light and bright with views of the waterfront. All staff appeared friendly and seemed to enjoy their roles. We will definitely return again, perhaps at night to enjoy the views of Saratoga Springs across the lake.
