Panza's On The Lake - Saratoga Springs

It also appeared that our waitress was having a rough time; even though the small dining room was only a third full, everything took an inordinate amount of time. I don't fault the wait staff for this; I believe it stems from a lack of proper training by the management. With a bit more effort from the management and owners, this place could really shine.

One of the top restaurants in the Capital District! The service is excellent, the pizza is fantastic, and the ambiance is delightful. We've hosted receptions and private events here, and they went above and beyond to accommodate us. You'll find the best Thanksgiving banquet here, and the desserts are absolutely incredible!

I previously had an amazing experience here, with incredible antipasto, moist meatballs bursting with flavor, and fantastic pizza. The homemade chocolate berry cake was also a highlight—if you haven't been, I highly recommend stopping by! However, my most recent visit on July 7, 2022, was a completely different story. We arrived at 7:55 PM, and due to a banquet, the staffing was insufficient. We waited 38 minutes for our drinks and never even received a glass of water. It took over 30 minutes for our appetizers to arrive, and I had to repeatedly ask about our food. Our main course, a pizza, took over an hour to arrive, well past closing time. To make matters worse, my pizza was missing the sausage and mushrooms I specifically ordered. Additionally, the soda machine was out of service, and we were informed they were replacing it. One person in our party waited 45 minutes for a drink, and my girlfriend ultimately had to go to the bar to get it herself. It was a terrible experience, and I don’t have much more to say.

Clam pizza had ok flavor but different from what we?re used to. Great crust. Wait time ok but 15 minutes for to-go order at host stand turned into 25 minutes. They were apologetic though, so I appreciate them trying to fit us in. It was a busy Friday night.

This place is everything and more, my son had the boneless wings and he said those were the best wings he's ever had, my girlfriend had the all white pizza and she loved it, and I had seafood pomadora, and it was to die for!! My bowl alone could'vefed all three of us,I ate from that dish for three straight days!! Btw our waiter did a great job being that it was his firstday there!! Highly Recommended!!!
