Description of Restaurant:

What seems to be part of the famous wood structure, "SARATOGA RACE TRACK", is actually right next door on Lincoln Avenue. The restaurant is a large modern house that is the center of attraction when the Summer Race Season is in swing, because of the large bar (where the locals watch the TV race feed), and the visitors, horse owners, breeders, etc. mingle after the last race for "Power Cocktail Time".

The dinning rooms are well staffed with energetic, experienced wait-staff.
