I had never been here before, but I understand they’ve done a lot of work around the property. Dinner was delicious! The staff was so friendly. I was greeted by Tyler, who brought me to my table, where Anna made suggestions, and answered questions I asked. They were out of the cocktail I wanted, but the wine I chose was very very good. I had the French Onion soup, the filet, and a blackberry bread pudding with maple whipped cream and lemon sorbet for dessert. The restaurant was quiet when I got there for the early seating, but full within 1/2 hour or so. They have outdoor seating as well, and bar seating. I will definately be back, great time! *** I asked for the filet to be medium rare and when I cut into it, I was so happy! It really was cooked to perfection, which I totally appreciated!

My husband and I dined here for his birthday dinner. We were looking for a new place to try. We expected more being in Saratoga and at the Gideon Putnam. The food looked delicious but it definitely was underwhelming. My chicken was good but it was served with watery pasta and sauce around the edge of the plate. My husband’s ribeye lacked flavor/seasoning. He said that it was one of the toughest steaks that he had ever had. The French onion soup tasted diluted. For the amount that we paid we weren’t impressed. The atmosphere was on the loud side more like a bar or pub. The dress attire was a lot more casual than I would expect in a place like this. The waitress was busy and we’re patient and understanding but she passed the table numerous times and didn’t fill out water glasses. We were sitting next to the water pitcher station. We didn’t sit on the patio but that’s a nice option. I wouldn’t waste my time or money here unless stopping for a drink or maybe a burger.

The food was delicious and the service was beyond incredible. The dessert was requested to go and they didn’t spare any garnishing detail. It looked just like it probably would have delivered on the plate. The fig appetizer and lobster shrimp risotto was amazing.

Very rarely review things, let alone leave a negative review. The saving grace was a decent beer and frozen french fries that were similar to Burger King at best. The menu was bland, extremely overpriced, and felt like most of the materials were sourced from Hannaford. Would have been better off making my burger on the grill myself. Avoid the place, total waste of money. The drinks were good, maybe chill at the bar… But not worth eating.

This is a very poor restaurant. The food was terrible. The service was bad. The shrimp tacos were inedible. The hamburger was under-cooked and mac and cheese was over-cooked. The fish was okay, but the mush that it was accompanied by was terrible. The service was friendly but equally poor. Some dishes arrived cold. He ignored my request for water without ice. He didn’t seem to know the menu. The best dish in the house lobster risotto was sold out at 7 p.m. and the waiter did not have a suggestion for alternatives. The place is a beautiful stately dinning room inside the an old hotel in the Saratoga Spa State Park. The setting is nice. If they allow outside catering it could be a nice place to host weddings, but the food is so bad I would not invite my enemies to eat here.

Awful food and we waited 45 minutes for it on a night when the place was empty. Dirty silverware and glasses, terrible waiter who is sadly in the wrong profession (seriously, he was incompetent and a nervous wreck). Never followed up when we wanted a second glass of wine. Total fail. That makes two bad visits here, we will not be back despite the very nice outdoor dining. Hostess and bus boy were also unpleasant. I know it is hard to get good staff but this is Saratoga so no excuses!

Sunday Brunch on Father’s Day was disappointing. Our reservation was lost, so we were given an uncomfortable table. No server came to bring drinks. Chef noticed we were sitting there with no drinks, so told hostess. Hostess came over and acted surprised that we wanted water and coffee. Food was abundant, but medium to cold. Best thing was the freshly made omelettes. Dessert tray was delicious and varied. Servers were ignoring us, even after we asked for the bill. Hostess and restaurant manager were having personal conversations very loudly. After 45 minutes waiting for the check, we calculated the cost and threw cash on the table.

What a great experience it was to dine at Putnam’s. The food is inventive and delicious – a twosome which does not always work. In this case kudos to the chef for pulling it off so beautifully. The service Dominick provided was simply outstanding – so efficient and knowledgeable. In the midst of the usual restaurant issue of the day – not enough quality help and slapdash service – he was a professional. We so appreciated his level of expertise and the cheerful manner it was delivered. We look forward to returning.

From the handmade cocktail syrups to the delicious special-recipe chips, and homemade butternut squash soup, all the servers, the hostess, and the manager were attentive with excellent service. We are so happy that we did not listen to the recent unflattering reviews as everything was perfect and we are grateful to the staff for a special evening while staying at the hotel.

It’s difficult for me to give any kind of review of the food. The servers were attentive and courteous. The food was non-existent. After an hour wait for our app, nothing had arrived. No bread, not a cracker nothing. Having plans I had to leave. Eat at the hotel if your time has no value. If you have plans after dinner go elsewhere.
