Chez Pierre is located in Saratoga Springs, N.Y., famous for its history, art, and the highly regarded thoroughbred race track, where thousands of visitors flock each racing season. Chez Pierre is the quintessential family-owned and run restaurant, launched in 1963 by husband and wife Joe and Pierrette Baldwin, who named the restaurant after their son, Pierre. Joe met his wife in France and fell i
n love with her country's exquisite cuisine. He studied the art of French cooking under a renowned chef until he mastered his culinary skills, talents he now uses in his own restaurant’s kitchen. Pierrette, a native of Nancy, France, carried the ambiance of the French countryside to the restaurant, giving patrons a multi-sensory dining experience with expressions in the French language and picturesque murals on the walls.
