About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Lively
  • Charming
Situated in the heart of beautiful downtown Saratoga Springs, Chianti Il Ristorante serves sophisticated, authentic Northern Italian fare in an elegant setting. Combining seasonal food, an award-winning wine selection, a welcoming and knowledgeable staff and a detailed, inviting ambiance Chianti provides every guest with a superb and unforgettable dining experience. Aesthetically inspiring, its rustic walls, hard wood floors and green onyx bar invoke the authenticity of conventional Italian architecture while remaining slightly modern. The culinary philosophy at Chianti is based on a respect for tradition. With artisan breads and pastas, housemade sausage and braised meats it is culinary craftsmanship at its best. Our guests have the chance to savor fresh food, from a selection of expertly-sliced carpaccio, to a variety of wild fish, to risotto that is made only with Vialone Nano rice grown exclusively in Italy's Venetto region. "The hottest restaurant in town." The New York Times

    Never a bad experience here. For any occasion, this is the place to go. Friendly, experienced, and well presented staff; perfect atmosphere; and a great menu loaded with delicious and unique Italian food. Lastly, the crowd this restaurant attracts, because of the characteristics listed above, is great too (nobody in baseball caps and sweat pants). Favorite restaurant in town.

    Enjoyed our drinks and dinner. Our waitress was professional and proficient. There when we wanted her, not there when we didn’t. A fun time on a busy Saturday night.

    Food is consistently good and service was excellent. Always busy and always crowded, so it is a bit noisy. This is one of our favorite places to eat when in Saratoga.

    This was our second time dining here. We were lucky to have the same waiter. I can’t remember his name but he is the most professional and friendly waiter. We loved our food. Highly recommend this restaurant.

    We were delighted to celebrate our anniversary at Chianti's. And, we drove 2 hours from home to do it! Well worth the trip. From the bartender who recommended a drink similar to a Bloody Mary (but lighter) to Kevin, our server, we had professional and friendly service. The Capellini Checca was outstanding--fresh and tasty. The Bolognese was wonderful. Can't wait to make the trip again. Thanks, Chianti's!
