"Seneca's outdoor patio is perfect for a summer evening, with offerings like a prime New York strip with foie gras-studded mac and cheese and roasted garlic butter."

Great dinner spot. My server was very knowledgeable about the menu, attentive and just overall a nice guy. I had Seneca roasted brussel sprouts (amazing), wood fired NY strip steak, Parker House Rolls that were outstanding with the most delicious butter (I think they churn it in house, seriously.) and their salted caramel espresso martini. I'm not a drinker but it was very good. Steak was medium rare and cooked/tasted like absolute perfection. Wonderful spot for couples or an after work drink. I will be back.

Seneca has been me and my husbands favorite spot for a while now. (And by a while I mean years). Being industry people ourselves we are a very hard customer to please... But there has never been one single time the food was not immensely fast, and out of this world delicious. We always order at least three courses and it’s never taken more than 45 minutes to eat our entire meal. There hasn’t been a time the drinks weren’t quick, delicious and perfectly crafted. And a time that the service wasn’t PERFECT, and friendly. Which coming from me is not something I have ever said about another restaurant. To have such immense consistency in this business is a true feat. The Kobe Beef flat iron and mac and cheese was truly on another level. But we always come back for the signature Parker house rolls, and the pierogis. I don’t know why we bother trying to eat anywhere else nothing tops Seneca!! Keep doing what you’re doing and please never leave!

The stringency in table time is a bit absurd for an upstate eatery. It’s Saratoga springs not East Hampton so that definitely makes the experience decline however if you’re stopping in for cocktails at the bar you can surpass all that wannabe nonsense. Very perfect cocktails, expertly poured every single time and consistently. The menu items that can be prepared gluten free are a handful so not really worth it for not being able to eat but the Brussels sprouts were good. Salmon was just ok and not anything special on the dry side too which was disappointing.

This place is also a different pace than most of the others in the area. The menu is unique and the drinks are decent. Staff was friendly. Pictured: Grilled Hangar Steak, Caribbean Jerk Chicken, Wood Grilled Asparagus, Carrot Parisian Gnocchi & Grilled Korean Short Ribs, Pierogies and some dessert I can't remember that was amazing!

Very cute dinner place - the most amazing bread rolls we ordered two - no regrets. A lot of cute small plates for sharing. We also had the brussel sprouts and the steak. Staff were super nice and the place was very date-night-esque atmosphere. Edit: we’ve now been several more time since because we loved it that much - other highlights are the paella special and pierogis.

First time visiting, perfect atmosphere but never expect the food to taste as good as the price. I have had far better meals that cost less. Will give them another try.

Went for drinks and shared plates before a show at UPH and were able to snag a couple of seats at the bar. They didn't have an fresh basil for a mojito, so I went with the blueberry vodka lemonade which was very delicious. The park house rolls are so fresh, they just melt in your mouth and the honey butter is incredible. The perogies were absolutely delicious with just enough sour cream and onions. The fried chicken deviled eggs had large pieces of chicken on top, I wasn't expecting to get such a big portion and it was very flavorful. The one food item I wouldn't get again is the wood-fired onion dip. To me it tasted just like what I make out of a package from the grocery store and the chips were just okay. Save room and money and order something else. Overall, very happy with our last minute decision to stop here and looking forward to returning.

We recently had the pleasure of dining at Seneca in the heart of Saratoga Springs, and it exceeded our expectations in every way. From the moment we were seated, our server Justin made us feel incredibly welcome. His attentiveness and knowledge of the menu truly enhanced our experience. The meal began with their signature Parker House rolls and pierogis, which are an absolute must-try. These dishes alone are worth the visit! Venturing out of our comfort zone, we decided to try the Dill Pickle Collins, and it turned out to be a delightful surprise—refreshing and perfectly balanced. For our entrees, we ordered the Filet Mignon and the NY strip, and both were cooked to perfection. The flavors were exceptional, and each bite was a testament to the chef’s skill. Seneca is one of our top picks in Saratoga Springs, and we can’t wait to return. If you’re looking for an unforgettable dining experience, look no further!

Such a lovely experience while visiting Saratoga Springs! Lovely atmosphere, drinks, service and food! The wagu burger was so yummy!

Came in on a snowy January evening. Had a reservation specifically for the bar. Not available. We were seated "near" the bar. We ordered beer because, sorry, $18-23 cocktails are just a bit exorbitant for me. We took a look at the menu and looked for all the delish Apps and Entree's we had heard and read about- no where to be found: where were the lamb lollipops, the noodles, the shrimp- oh well. The Waygu Burger was awesome- best burger I've had in quite some time. Decent place but loud. Brick walls, steel deck ceiling with nothing to absorb sound. Will return in the spring hopefully to an updated menu.

Great spot! food is excellent and the ambiance is perfect! only downside is the price of the drinks- $17 for a cocktail? that's a little bit much- They are not even on Broadway- Overall, a great restaurant- just watch what you drink.

Fantastic food and beverages! I suggest this restaurant to everyone in the area. Great for date night or a place with friends. Delicious steaks and you won't stop thinking about their rolls for days!

Quite disappointing at the price. We liked the parker house rolls. My $17 glass of Malbec was clearly from a $12 bottle--my partner's margarita was tasty and her pork chop with polenta was very good, to be fair. The coal-roasted beets with burrata were served cold and nothing special. My hanger steak with fingerling potatoes was, I would have to say, "fine", but in general everything was just okay and very expensive. The ambience was fine, the service was fine, and it was filled with young, wealthy people who looked like they stepped off of a yaught somewhere. We wouldn't go back.

We always eat at the bar and have such an amazing evening at Seneca. Their attention to detail in their food and drinks really shows. The bar is comfortable and spacious. Started with the Parker house rolls, followed by the burger and the NY strip steak. This steak is served with bone marrow mac and cheese and oh my God was that amazing. As always we'll be back.

Weekend trip to the area and heard many great things about this place. Was a very busy location with a very pleasant atmosphere. Had to try the rolls which did not disappoint with the luxurious whipped butter drizzled with honey! Ordered the beet salad which was top notch combo of flavors. Arancini balls were perfectly cooked & seasoned, super hot right from the kitchen. Shared a burger with my husband & was perfectly cooked medium as requested. Salt on top of bun was a bit salty in combo with a perfectly seasoned burger. Would prefer they left off the bun, didn't need that on it. Other food we saw coming out of the kitchen was presented beautifully & looked delicious. Would go back again to try some other dishes but beet salad will be my first go to choice.

A perfect date night spot! We made reservations which are highly recommended. We were sat right away at a nice, but very small table. We've heard non stop chatter about the Parker house rolls and I have to be honest...the hype is warranted! We had the clementine sour and wow it was an amazing cocktail and the beer list was good as well. For our entrees we had the jerk chicken and crab pasta. Everything was wonderfully balanced and impressive. I really wish we could have tried dessert, but we were absolutely stuffed! Service was excellent for the most part until the very end when we had to wait a while to get our check, but we could tell our server was working hard so no worries!

There is very little to find fault with on our recent visit to Seneca. The atmosphere is pleasant, our reserved table was ready, the food was tasty, creative, and well prepared, the service was welcoming and friendly, and the restrooms were clean. So, what were the "little faults" referenced above? The noise level is on the higher side, the tables seem small for the number of patrons seated at them whether that be two or six, and servers shouldn't serve a drink or dish on top of a napkin left on the table while the customer is away from the table. But none of those faults will prevent us from returning. My wife tried their Pretzel Cinnamon Manhattan ($18) - cinnamon infused vermouth, rye, cinnamon and orange bitters, pretzels, and a cinnamon and sugar rim. It was delicious! Had I ordered one it would have been downed in nothing flat. But I chose to have a draft Märzen Oktoberfest ($9) from Chatham Brewing. Nice flavors and crisp. We both eyed something different on the appetizers menu that we wanted to try. She ordered the Coal-roasted Beets ($15) - pistachio butter, black garlic vinaigrette, burrata, fried kale chips, and Chile sea salt. Once again, I could have been happy with this dish also since it tasted so good. Especially the contrasting texture of those fried kale chips. My app choice, however, was the Lamb Meatballs ($16) - ground lamb shoulder, harissa tomato sauce, roasted garlic tzatziki, olive and caper tapenade, and parsley. Truly flavorful with no gaminess, the harissa sauce was especially delicious. Moving on to our entrees, my wife was ready for a glass of Trefethen Chardonnay ($17) which matched perfectly with her Shrimp & Grits ($32). Happily, the kitchen removed the shrimp tails before adding them to the smoked gouda grits, house-smoked bacon, chorizo butter, zucchini and corn chow chow, and fried leeks. Very tasty and magnificent flavors. I thoroughly enjoyed the wood-fired 12oz Pork Chop ($39). The Chef's recommendation was for medium-rare, and I said I'd like whatever was the Chef's willingness to cook as rare as possible. It was served the most beautiful, tender, and juicy pink I've ever received in a restaurant. Along with the sourdough Spätzle, tri-color carrots, and plum wine mustard gravy, my tastebuds were in absolute awe! Both of us chose to take a portion of our entrees home so that we could explore the kitchen's offering of dessert. We decided to share the Sticky Toffee Pudding ($14) along with a large French press coffee ($12). The pudding was another hit with its spiced date cake, caramel sauce, vanilla ice cream, and toffee bits. The medium roasted coffee was very good and the perfect ending to our celebratory dinner. Next trip we try the Parker House Rolls.

Alright Foodies, I honestly disappointed my this one. I have been wanting to try this place for a really long time. Maybe I chose the wrong night to get lucky because I definitely didn't! My cousin decided to reserve for us for a Tuesday evening. It was busy for a weeknight for sure. Firstly the place is really nicely decorated. It has a rustic industrial decor and yuppie vibe. I have included some pictures. We had reservations but arrived 30 minutes early. The hostess and hostess in training were super nice and accommodating and sat us anyway. We really appreciated this. So far so good for sure! Unfortunately our waiter was rude and passive aggressive. I ordered the pea and ricotta caramelle appetizer but pronounced it incorrectly. He promptly corrected me and then yammered about sounding pretentious, well he sure did. It made us feel uncomfortable. He also asked if we were ordering additional appetizers, suggesting we also buy the roll appetizer. We said we were trying to cut back on our carbs. We got the impression we were not ordering enough food. The appetizer came and looked really pretty. Unfortunately the pasta packets that resembled little wrapped bon bons were hard. The dish overall needed a good grind of salt and pepper. Oh also it says it come with a mushroom veloute. It does not, it comes with a mushroom puree. There is a very distinct difference, especially to the Classical French Chef. Our server asked us how our appetizer was, I replied that it was alright but the pasta was hard. He asked if we were serious or pulling his leg and looked at our plate, which was still empty because we were hungry, as if our agenda was to ask for free food. He asked us what we were thinking about for entrees. I replied that I would like to try the swordfish dish but I was allergic to hazelnuts. He replied that" I would have a hard time with that dish then." My cousin heard that and asked if I could still have the dish but have the hazelnut sauce removed. He replied "yeah no because then the dish is missing a whole component". Dude have you heard of lemon butter sauce and customer service? Obviously not. I honestly wanted to walk out after that but didn't want to spoil the nice evening we were otherwise having. We both ended up getting the Caribbean jerk chicken dish. Again a major disappointment, the sweet potato mash was bland and stone cold. The menu says that you get a half a chicken, which is 1 breast, thigh and leg. However, you actually only get a leg and thigh. Maybe they don't know what a chicken looks like? The whole dish was sweet element after sweet element. My palette was crying out for a salty element like some cooked greens with ham hock. If you are a fan of Caribbean food, you know what I'm talking about right? We were further encouraged to order dessert but didn't. No more disappointments needed. We paid and left, never to return.

This place is known for their wood fired grill and it's out to good use. The hanger steak and jerk chicken both have that amazing sear you'd expect and is definitely recommended. They're also known for their house made Parker rolls which was great! Plush and pillowly with a side of butter mixed with rock salt and honey - wow! The pierogies were good but outshined by the other dishes. Overall a delicious meal and highly recommended

Nicole R.

Yelp
Great atmosphere, drinks and food. I would definitely recommend. We started with some appetizers like salads. They were wonderful, the chef pairs food very well like the salads with watermelon and balsamic. Then we had several different dinners. The wagyu burger was very tasty and other entrees had exquisite taste!

Everything was great! The parker house rolls, veal and shrimp and grits were our favorite dishes. Great service and open dining room.

Visiting from Philly. Went here for the ladies birthday dinner. We had the lobster empanadas, NY strip and pork chop. The meats were phenomenal and perfectly cooked. Nice and juicy with great flavor. The empanadas I could have done without. The decor was nice but was not a fan of the layout. We were placed in the middle of the dining room which certainly needs some type of partition to break up the dance floor of tables. I also asked for a candle in our desert which was not a huge deal but that little attention to detail would have made the night even more special. I'd recommend trying.

Bill K.

Yelp
The service was acceptable but not impressive. The ambience was cold and not inviting. The food was pretty good. I got the beets salad and was the best dish. I also got the lettuce wedge and the 15 Church street wedge was a lot better, although it was an acceptable salad. The chocolate bread warm bread pudding with ice cream was pretty good as well but too much to eat all my myself

Jenn H.

Yelp
My review is based on my extended family getting a bunch of food for takeout. This included burgers, salads, chicken tenders for a child, pierogi, fries, and veggies as sides. No one really ate that much of their meal. Everything was very heavy, greasy, and soggy. My BIL has eaten at the restaurant and said he really enjoyed the burger. I found it overly dense and heavy, the toppings were too high fat for such a high fat burger. Not in a good way, but in a way that lacked balance and was crying out for something acidic or tangy to break up the flavor. This place gets such high reviews, I expected more. Maybe the experience of eating at the restaurant makes a big difference but I would not order takeout from this restaurant again.

Went for dinner with my husband. We made a reservation beforehand. When we arrived we were greeted by the hostess and brought to our table. The restaurant isn't large but the place was pack. Our waiter was great, he was very friendly, informative about their menu and attentive. He would come and refill our glasses of water whenever they were low. Our food was delicious, the paella arancini was creative and flavorful. For dessert we had a chocolate cake and it was moist, tasty and sweet. I would definitely go back for a nice meal.

Was lucky enough to score a reservation after the Traver's at Saratoga, and was skeptical of the outdoor seating reservation but now will only request seating on their outdoor patio. The evening cools down perfectly, the service is awesome. We had too many starters as they all looked great: the lobster roll sliders, the wood fired oysters, and more I can't even remember. The steaks are world class, perfectly done, and the best in every way. Again, all the desserts looked too good to pass up, so we ended up with the flan, the bread pudding, and the chocolate cake. Of course, the bar made my all time go to Makers with an orange twist perfectly, had to try their special Old Fashioned, and the Reisling wine paired for us by the chef was exactly what we would've had. Will be back!

Food is ok, but this place is desperately in need of a menu change. Same menu for the last year, at least. Becoming a stale, uninteresting venue.

Absolutely delicious food. You must order the rolls. Everything we had was really good and the service was lovely.

I was hoping to be blown away based on other reviews so I came in with high expectations. Unfortunately, I didn't think the food was as amazing as others have but I enjoyed my food for the most part and the service was really good. The ambiance was pretty good too. Overall, I would come again for the parker house rolls and to try some other dishes on the menu but I didn't immediately find my new favorite restaurant as I hoped. Service: Our waiter was personable and friendly and came by our table often, refilling waters and grabbing empty dishes very quickly Ambiance: Lively, loud, small tables, a bit crowded, nice decor Food: Appetizers-Parker house rolls were great-very moist, delicious, loved the flaky salt and the honey butter; Coal roasted beets were good but some of the beets were too hard; Lamb meatballs would've been really great if it weren't for the olives on top Entrees-My boyfriend enjoyed his hanger steak; I got the crab farfalle which was also good Dessert-we shared the bread pudding option on the menu which is made from the Parker house rolls (I prefer them savory) we both liked it a lot but it was pretty sweet and we didn't finish it Drinks-the mango jalapeño margarita was really good, the pistachio & caramel martini tasted a little strong, my boyfriend liked his old fashioned

When you have as many fine dining restaurants in your area as we do, and your busy life limits your availability to enjoy a night out, you are very picky about where you go. With family visiting, we choose Seneca because we had had a positive experience a year ago when we went there to celebrate our anniversary. With our return visit, I am compelled to drop my rating by one star, and here is why. For starters, I made our 7:30 p.m. reservation for four through Resy over a week ago. Seneca did not have it on the books. I never have this problem with OpenTable, which I have been using for many years - probably since it's inception. Thankfully, the restaurant was empty and the gracious hostess seated us without haste. I will admit that I am no barfly, but I do feel $16 for an Apple Cider Cocktail is a bit high. Just sayin'. Three of us ordered the Veal Shortrib which was served with Soba noodles in a rather ordinary broth. Like right-out-of-the-can beef broth. No Asian influence, as we all anticipated. Disappointing. It was also served barely warm. Note: I took the noodles home, added garlic and sesame oil, and - bingo - vastly improved the flavor. Sadly, on a Wednesday night at 7:30 p.m., they were out of the one seasonal apple dessert item (which all four of us would have ordered). I should add that the restaurant was pretty empty when we arrived, so ... ? On a positive note, my Wood-fired Oysters were superb, again. Probably the best item on the menu. Just wish they were a little bigger. I mean, they were itty bitty. One of our group was pleased with his Hanger Steak. Jake was our server again and he did an very good job. We tipped accordingly.

Perfectly okay. I admit, I was definitely expecting better from previous reviews and the excitement shared around dining at Seneca but after having dinner, I felt like it was perfectly okay. My waiter was patient, although, she seemed disappointed that I didn't order a drink. The Parker House roll were exactly what you'd expect -- soft, warm and fresh. The Jerk Chicken was good as well - I wish it was off the bone but oh well! Worth the try!

i took my parents here for a more upscale dinner. you will DEFINITELY need a reservation, which open a month in advance. the interior is well lit and comfortable. i started with a chai white russian, which had great flavor but was very strong for my tastes. for appetizers i tried the empanadas, brussel sprouts, and parker house rolls. the peanut chutney on the empanadas was just incredible and the flavors all went very well together. the brussel sprouts had thick pieces of bacon and was well balanced. if i'm being totally honest, the entire reason i went here is because of the parker house rolls and they did not disappoint. the rolls themselves were fluffy and had great bread-y flavor and the honey butter was balanced with flaky sea salt. one thing to note is that the apps are truly appetizer sized; if you're eating with a big group consider ordering several apps. i got the jerk chicken for my main. the sweet potatoes on their own were not very flavorful, but it worked with the combination of the chicken and the pineapple salsa. the salsa was my favorite part of the dish, and the chicken was well seasoned (if hard to eat bc it's served on the bone). for dessert we had the earl grey creme brûlée, which had a very light but present earl grey flavor and a crispy but not burnt top. very good. my parents both really enjoyed their meals and commented on the quality of service. the servers were polite but also very talkative and personable. they were very accommodating and even had a separate gluten free menu. seneca is an excellent choice for a nicer dining experience.

I only leave reviews for places that are exceptional. What great food! We came with a party of 8 after seeing some horse racing. Called for reservations and the hostess was able to fit us in as long we could sit in the back patio. My wife and I couldn't make up our mind so we ate apps. Got the beet salad, lamb meatballs, ravioli, fried fish and rolls, all of which were amazing! The rest of the table were just as happy as we were with our selections and they had the entrees. Would recommend to anyone. The prices were reasonable, but again we only got the apps.

We arrived for an early reservation (5:15), the restaurant was mostly empty. Our server approached us promptly and welcomed us (our first visit). He was very professional and friendly. I ordered the lobster sliders and the Korean ribs, my partner ordered the shrimp and grits. The dishes were presented beautifully and the flavors were excellent. I ordered the plum negroni and it was tasty. I believe our server's name was Jake. We will return. Seneca has become my favorite Saratoga restaurant.

Parker House Rolls!!! Best 4.00 you'll spend in this town. The bar is beautiful and the bartenders are attentive and skilled. The food is amazing and a must a few times a month!

Was able to get a reservation for my daughter and I after a day at the races and Seneca did not disappoint! My daughter started out with the Strawberry Mint 75 cocktail and loved it! We shared everything - appetizer course was the fried chicken deviled eggs. We disagree as to which came first. I said the egg and she said the chicken - but either was, it was delicious! Next was the grilled watermelon salad - a mixture of succulent watermelon and greens was very refreshing - and the pickled rinds absolutely hit it out of the park! We shared the hanger steak and grilled monkfish-shrimp skewer entrees. The hanger steak was so very tender and perfectly seasoned. The skewers were some of the best food I've ever eaten as the summer vegetable ratatouille complimented the seafood in a way I'd not thought of. Our waitress Anna was sweet, knowledgeable and seems to be in love with the food here - which is quite understandable. Definitely coming back when I'm in Saratoga Springs again.

Limited menu, moderate food, excellent cocktails and service. Outside seating nice. Would not recommend.

We've been to Seneca 5-6X, so definitely time for a re-review! First off, the interior decor is pretty hip with very high ceilings and bar is nice (see pic). The service is always top notch, and cocktails are creative. The menu is succinct, but seems to rotate in new items. Today I had miso style veal short ribs - awesome! The Parker House rolls are a must to start each visit.

Lively place and the bar is great! My new fav for a martini, cold beer and divine rare burger.

Party of four had an incredible dinner at Seneca. We started with round of apps to share. Grilled oysters (highly recommend), lamb meatballs in a sauce to die for, arancini, goat cheese polenta fries and of course their homemade Parker house rolls. Each of us had a different favorite appetizer as all were amazing. We then opted to split two main dishes: the day's special boneless Ribeeye steak (see photo) which was for two and the smoked Gouda shrimp and grits (See photo). We cannot say enough about the food. It was incredible. The service was top notch. The decor was cozy and we appreciated that while the restaurant was pretty full the noise level was reasonable so we could easily hear each other.

Food was great and staff was amazing and very tentative. We had a baby with us in her stroller and she slept all through dinner! Great place!

Great service, great food, and a very nice ambience. My husband loves strip steak, so it was one of the best in Saratoga Springs.! we were a party of eight, and everyone enjoyed their meals.

Otis M.

Yelp
Dinner with two good friends allows me to update my report. This is absolutely an experience that needs to be shared across the table. Order multiple apps rather than the less interesting entrees and graze like a herd of happy omnivorous cows. Each of the items was sufficient to provide more than a nibble for each of us three: --Parker House rolls. A must as everyone says, and sharing them avoids putting oneself in a carb coma. --Roasted eggplant dip. Elevated baba ganoush, in other words. It was good and the Night Market olive sourdough, toasted on their wood grill, was a treat. --Wood grilled oysters. "Chorizo butter, green onion emulsion" sounds like a clash of cultures but it worked very well. Only complaint was that the oysters themselves could have been bigger, Blue Points or Wellfleets vs teeny weenies. --Pierogis. I did not actually try them but the diner who likes pierogis did not give a rave review. --Grilled hanger steak. One of our party ordered this because of my long ago recommendation, and it was quite good. You will be happy if a steak entree is your choice. --Grilled lamb ribs. These were nice and munchable. The grilled radicchio and freekeh were tasty and filling. I'd order this as an entree next time on its own. Service, yet again, was excellent. Our server, Anna, had strong opinions which contributed to our choices. Also the noise level was, as before, extremely high. I wish they would consider some kind of artistic acoustic tiles in the ceiling.

If I didn't love Saratoga Springs already at this point on my vacation this place would have done it. Seriously the best burger of my life. Plus I loved the decor in here. I never usually finish my burger but I did here, that's how good it was. Only stopping between bites to tell my husband how great the burger was lol. Read the other great reviews, this is the place to go. When I think of Saratoga Springs this is the place I think of lol. We will be back one day! :P

Yelp
Food - Good. Server- Good Atmosphere- Good Here's the problem: We had made reservations in advance and when we reach on time they try to put us in a back high table, upon request to put us in a proper table the captain or I charge person comes and tells me it's not possible. I asked I made reservations and he says you should have mention no high table. How am I supposed to know they have high tables. I had back pain upon insisting and back and forth he again comes and tells me to take seat at the bar. I had to argue to get us a proper table, there were many empty tables. He's telling me it's a restaurant and high tables are common.Again, i said well then you should mention in your reservation form high table or normal table so customers could book as per their convenience. I would not go here again due to this unprofessional behavior based on race. Yes, I felt unwelcome.

Seneca is a top notch dining destination in the Capital Region. When I think of the top restaurants I've been to, Seneca, jumps in the conversation! We did a lot of splitting and sharing, which I highly recommend because the food is sooooo good. We got the deviled eggs and short ribs as an app, both of which were phenomenal. We split two entrees, but the STAR of the show (and a meal we still dream about) was salmon over a creamed spinach and mashed potato. The server was super accommodating and let us swap the meat on that dish (I believe it was pork) for salmon. Everything was cooked with care and prepared in a timely fashion! The space was cute and had a nice vibe! I can't wait to get back to Seneca!

Excellent creative food. Excellent service. One of the better restaurants in Saratoga. Can go casual.
