From the moment I stepped into Plumed Horse, I knew I was in for something special. The floral wall glowing with soft neon instantly set the mood--elegant, romantic, and picture-perfect. We started with a round of fresh oysters on ice, and they were everything you want oysters to be--chilled, clean, and briny with the perfect hit of lemon and sauce. Then came the chanterelle mushroom tart, which honestly stole my heart. Earthy, buttery, and beautifully balanced on a velvety cream sauce. It was rich but delicate--just chef's kiss. I followed it with the ribeye paired with tempura Mitaki mushrooms--that steak was seared to perfection, tender and juicy, while the tempura mushrooms added a crispy, savory crunch. The duck with endive and apricot pepper marmalade was stunning. Perfectly cooked slices of duck breast laid over roasted endive with that sweet peppery marmalade bringing it all together. Elegant and well-executed. Every dish felt thoughtful and refined without trying too hard. Service was top-tier, attentive but never overbearing, and the ambiance was dreamy. Whether you're celebrating something special or just in the mood to treat yourself, Plumed Horse is absolutely worth it. I'll definitely be back.

We went here for a date night on a Saturday. When we checked in our table was ready and the layout of the restaurant was quite interesting with walking past the kitchen and wine cellar to get to the dining room. Service was great for the most part. There were a few snags like being served bread and then getting my plate taken from me to be placed somewhere else on the table because appetizers were starting. Not sure if this is a fine dining thing but I was in the middle of buttering my bread. The serving place was wonderful and I never felt rushed. The seafood dishes were definitely stronger then the meat courses. My overall favorites of the night include the amazing crab souffle with uni and the sturgeon. My husband doesn't like fish and enjoyed this dish, which says a lot. The per my last email milk lunch cocktail was delicious and I'd recommend trying. The desserts were nice as well, I'm a big fan of their chocolate bombe with coffee bubbles. Overall it was a nice meal but I wasn't a fan of the two meat courses and I feel at this price point every dish should land. This restaurant is in downtown Saratoga so just be aware if you have a late dinner here there's not much to do in the area before or after.

Went on a Wednesday night for a celebration. Staff was courteous, wished us a happy anniversary on several occasions. The food was delicious, the food presentation was great. We tried the chanterelle mushroom tart, the signature souffle, the ribeye steak (medium rare) and went for the granny smith, and basque cheesecake. Sebastian took care of us for the evening and was very nice, professional and kind. We loved our experience and we will definitely come back again.

Phenomenal experience at a Michelin starred restaurant - service is superb and exactly what you would expect at a restaurant of this caliber. We opted for the chef's tasting menu, and it certainly did not disappoint! The caviar was fantastic, and the soufflé was one of my favorite courses, pairing wonderfully with the Dungeness crab and uni fondue. There is an upgrade option for the A5 Miyazaki, which we opted for, and our medium rare cuts of meat just melted in our mouth. Cheeky and tasty desserts as well. We celebrated our anniversary here, and received a complimentary glass of champagne to close out our meal. Definitely worth the splurge if you are celebrating something special.

My return to this Michelin-starred Saratoga restaurant, this time with my parents. It's very much a restaurant for them rather than for me; it is very classic, traditional, with little in terms of surprise. It works wonderfully, and it's exactly what you expect. Service is flawless, though the room could have two fewer tables (at times, servers had to reach over the table). And the food is exactly what you expect - French, with some California influence. Overall excellent... but just what it is.

Came to celebrate a big birthday for a family member. Late reservation at 8:30pm but we got seated early around 8:10pm. We waited for a while for anyone to come and offer water or go over the menu. I figured it was because we were early than our reservation. There was some confusion with who was going to take our order and who would go over the process for the 4 course prix fix. It was fine but a little awkward. Once Alex got involved, everything in terms of service got much better! The ambiance is lovely and we liked the music in the background which wasn't silence or too quiet. It made it feel very relaxed than other equally michelin'd places. Relaxed yet quiet lux. The food was amazingly good. Creative, delicious, perfectly prepared and gorgeously plated. The pork chop stood out as the sauce served with it was savory, comforting and memorable. The parmesan and black pepper souffle was everything I had hoped it was. I will definitely go back again for the beautifully prepared canapes (beef carpaccio puff was crave-worthy,) the side dishes and the breads and butters, which were absolutely dreamy, the souffle, and the outstanding Paris Brest dessert. The creme caramel was just ok. Would also want to see how the menu will change each season to time our return. 100% worth the splurge on expensive wines and port (4-figure price tag for 3.) Oh and I loved that they had awesome NA options for our birthday guy- a NOgroni (NA Negroni) was excellent and a witty surprise!

Exceeded expectations! Good value for a Michelin star establishment. We brought kids which they were able to accommodate with some lovely pasta. Service was top notch and very friendly. Only thing that could be better would be slighter faster coursing. Also staff could have anticipated that the kids would want some of the dessert and brought utensils for them. That said they were really nice about a birthday we were celebrating and made it extra special. The soufflé appetizer and pasta course were perfectly executed. Would get again. The entrees were perfectly sized -- not tiny but not large either. Duck was okay and didn't at all have a connection to Peking duck. The pork chop and beef entreees were the best. Fish may have been a tad salty. Outdoor dining was nice. Few gnats but otherwise great set up. The inside was very stylish and upscale. Would come back for another meal. The food itself was tasty, not just pretty, and service made it very special.
