“I’m afraid to be too honest about how much I loved my first visit to The Tasty Table for fear that the more of us who share the less chance I’ll get a table…but…it’s great!! I can hardly wait to return! Sunday brunch is fantastic! Busy and absolutely worth the wait! I had their delicious shakshuka and an early grey tea while my friend had the hamburger and a cappuccino. We both loved it!!! We ate outside which was lovely, but inside is even more lovely! The design is farmhouse chic meets French patisserie…a great combo!!! And…the staff was kind and generous!! I really look forward to going back!!“

“Food was excellent. Everything was fresh and well prepared.“

“I've only eaten there once, but I can see myself visiting again. Service was very good, and friendly. The "Alvin" Grilled Chicken Sandwich was tasty, though the Chicken was a bit chewy. The French Fries were very good. The menu looks very ambitious, and I look forward to trying their other offerings. The bathrooms are tiny, but clean! It's a safe bet that you'll get an enjoyable meal at Strawberry Place.“

“This restaurant is a home run. It was our first trip in - looking forward to the next time. Cocktails were well crafted. All food items were excellent. We enjoyed lamb lollipops, tuna tacos, barbacoa croquettes and Brussel sprouts Au gratin - all very flavorful and well presented. Best we’ve seen in the month we’ve been living here. It’s a must visit.“

Brussel sprouts, cauliflower so yum, and probably the best plantains I've ever had. Sophia/owner was an amazing host, with great suggestions. See you soon! Fancy Nancy“

“I have been to some great places but this is the best place I've been to in New York, hands down. Every single menu item was AMAZING! Farm to table at its best. And the chef is a super friendly great guy and the waiter was awesome. My new go to spot!“

“great music venue with wide variety of acts.“

“Good food and friendly staff.“

“Got the Big Kalhuna French toast with raspberry drizzle. It was divine! Sad it's only a special and not a fixed item on menu. The place can get crowded and takes a bit of time for your order to be made and brought. But it's worth the wait and price. Portions are huge!!“

“A really solid place where the food was good, I really liked the burger, make sure you add the fried egg as it elevated the burger to another level.

The lollipop wings were something I never had in that form, it was cool and made for a much cleaner bite. I do wish it had a better crunch with the reduced surface area.

Dessert I tried their Krispy Kreme bread pudding topped with ice cream which was really good. That stood out being so different than what you normally will find at any other restaurant and I'd highly recommend it.

Overall this is a very solid local spot to visit where it has both a bar atmosphere on one side, and a sit down restaurant where you can bring the family on the other.“

“We used to host a number of events here many years ago, but stopped due to covid. Finally was able to go back for another networking event. I cannot say enough about how great this place is still. Everything was amazing. From the front of the house Staff, waiters and bartenders. I have yet to be disappointed in the food or drinks. Highly Recommend this place to anyone needing an amazing venue.“

Very clean, lots of windows, 2 large rooms including a full bar on one side. A couple of areas for hors douerves and buffet or sit down dinner.
Food was amazing! You choose the menu!
I'd definitely rent this place for an event, party!“

“The owner is nice and makes sure his staff accommodate my partying needs for my friends and I. I noticed that bartenders, waitresses, and DJ Alex know how to welcome fun in an ambient and exciting night life on Tuesday nights. I recently dined 🍽 here and the food was delivered fresh without a long wait. I recommend 👌 this place for party goers of all ages. I'll sing, socialize, and dance together. This is the most fun I had in years @ Bar 🍸 141, Thornwood, NY. It's worth the money because it's guaranteed a thriller.“

“Awesome service! There was a pre fix menu for Valentines Day, but our waiter accommodated me with a different meal of my choice.“

Service is always impeccable and friendly. Delicious lava cake & cheesecake too. They have specials as well. 5 star experience!“

“Barley House is a really nice clean pub. You know when you walk into a place and you smile 😊and feel like you're going to enjoy the visit? The Barely House does that. The staff was super welcoming. The space has plenty of both indoor and outdoor seating. Plus a walk that folds away so your in / out. I ordered the Barley House burger with homemade potato 🥔 chips. So good!!! My husband ordered a cheese burger and loved it also. They have an area outside set up for the soccer ⚽ games with TVS and everything. There is plenty of free parking. I will be back! Worth the drive.“

The event was set up beautifully, the food was good and the waitstaff were on point and helpful. it was a great great time. Definitely worth this "Gem" in Ossining, NY..WELL DONE TRAVELERS REST, WELL DONE!“

“Stopped in today from out of state. AMAZING cheesecake! Highly recommend 💜“

“It’s all about the food and atmosphere, Vela has both! So delicious and a def must try!“

“Our waitress appeared to be in a bad mood, not welcoming at all. The food was awful. My burger bun was hard as a rock, the bacon was hard and cold, my kids' broccoli was swimming in some weird oil like liquid, inedible, the chicken Mac& Cheese bowl tasted warm and seemed microwabable.....and we literally had to send back the wine carafe, it was BITTER!!! Needless to say a waste of money! Sorry, I wouldn't recommend, cute place but that is all.“

“I absolutely love bagelicious!! I constantly go here and they never miss! The staff is super friendly & and the food is so delicious! I also love that I can get a gluten free bagel here. The staff is very careful to make sure there’s no cross- contamination which I really appreciate! I will always recommend bagelicious 10/10!“

“Awesome food highly recommend“

“What a delightful place to host a party! The outdoor patio is enclosed just in case of inclement weather. The view is spectacular, right on the golf course. Food is delicious and the people working there are so accommodating and easy to work with. We hosted a party for 75+ people and it was fantastic!!!“

“My lunch was excellent the Citrus Lime Salad with skirt steak perfectly cooked medium and so tender. The salad wasn't overly dressed. My daughter had the cheese tortellini pasta she said the sauce was too sweet. The views from the dining room were great. We entered during a rush period so the service was a little slow and it was a little chilly in the dining room. Overall a great lunch!“
