Mangino's Ristorante Was on Saratoga Lake for 72 Years & Is Prime Real Estate

Three generations of the Mangino family ran the restaurant for seventy-two years until it ultimately closed for good in October 2018 according to the Albany Business Review. It was on the market for $2.6 million in 2019.

What Kind of Access Will the Town Have?

According to the Daily Gazette, the Malta Town Board approved the resolution unanimously and has the go-ahead to purchase the former Mangino's restaurant property for one point eight million dollars.

Former Mangino's Ristorante sits at the southern part of Saratoga Lake on 2.67 acres. It is ideal for the town of Malta because it has ninety-one feet of waterfront along Route 9P. This property would be ideal for Saratoga Lake public access.

The Mangino Family is Pleased With the Purchase

Pam Mangino said of the purchase,

We love Malta, we’ve been approached by builders, and we’ve had different things that have been floated around. Quite frankly, when we started to speak about it becoming part of Malta and the thought about me coming with a grandchild someday to say, my mom, my dad, your grandparents, my grandparents, your great-grandparents, this was something that was part of us.

What Will Be Built on the old Mangino Property?

Although it is not known exactly what will be built, the Town of Malta hopes to have a public space with access to Saratoga Lake. They are hoping to build a small park, a kayak and canoe launch area, maybe a few small boat slips, and a fishing pier.

Price Reduced! Jaw-Dropping Saratoga Lake Mansion With Waterfall & Wine Cellar

This stunning mansion has been on the market for a while and now the price has been reduced. It was $8.9 million and then $7 million. Now it's $6.47 million. When looking through the pictures of this gorgeous mansion my jaw was on the floor. There is so much attention to detail and elegance throughout this home. It sits on 15 acres with breathtaking views of Saratoga Lake. Check out the outdoor patio complete with a pool house that actually I would be happy calling my home. There is a built-in barbeque and the pool has a beautiful stone waterfall!
