MAX LONDON’S (Saratoga, NY - Dining)

466 Broadway
Web: www.maxlondons.com
Type: Mediterranean restaurant

This is the new hot spot in town. Max, the son of Mrs. London of Mrs. London’s Bakery, has opened his new Mediterranean restaurant right next to the Bakery on Broadway. I haven’t had the pleasure of dining there since they opened in December, but I’ve eaten Max’s delicious creations many times when he was the chef at Eartha’s Bistro. Here, he offers small plates, pastas, salads, pizzas, and daily specials with extensive cocktail, beer and wine lists in a contemporary hip setting. Max London’s tops my list of favorites to try this season.
