We came up with a large group for Fathers Day. The team was incredibly helpful.
The burgers were incredibly seasoned, and we loved our ice cream choices.
Id skip the onion rings next time, but a minor concern given how great everything was !“

“This is my favorite takeout/delivery restaurant here in Hopewell and ratings are based on that. The quality has improved over the past 10 years and everything we have ordered was satisfactory. The pizza is NY style and is REALLY good for the price. Delivery is quick, courteous, and never made a mistake. I wouldn't consider a different pizza shop if I can get Frattelos.“

“Always good and super friendly!“

“I ate here a couple days ago while on vacation and everyone loved it. Big servings and low cost. Great atmosphere and very friendly owners and staff. Most of my group had been here several times. I can't wait to get back. I got the I-84 garden salad with house dressing. It was the perfect meal for me. Excellent dressing and veges.“

“7 of us popped in on a Thursday evening without a reservation. We were kindly greeted and promptly seated. We each enjoyed our meals and appetizers - delicious food, large portions. I opted for the half portion of Chicken Sandoval. The half portion was plenty and the dish was tasty! A great spot to eat in the Village and even re-connect with with an "old" friend.“

The menu was huge. The place was huge. Plenty of seating. We ate late night and the place was buzzing. Highly recommend it.“

“Me and my family had dinner on a busy Saturday night. Service and food were on point. Extremely attentive staff. You could tell that the host, waitress and bartender and every other employee took pride in what they did. Excellent environment and menu for all. We cannot wait to go back!“

“Food was awesome! Excellent service, atmosphere and if you like beer they have quite an assortment!!“

“Great options for my entire family for all meals of the day.
Whether eating in the Cafe or getting take-out we're always happy with the service from the staff. My wife needs gluten free options and this is our favorite place in the area to reliably have great options.

My personal favs are an omelet with spinich, tomato, and feta cheese for breakfast or the fresh caprese sandwich (sometimes I add a burger patty) for lunch/dinner. And the homefries are AMAZING.“

“The burgers are INSANE, a must order. I loved my caramelized onion/French onion, burger, and the brunch burger with fried egg, both were delicious, probably top burger I ever had.
I forgot to add a picture because I done right in and then before you know it, it was gone before my eyes 😅
The regular size fry $6 was huge and way more then enough to share for 2 hungry adults
Highly recommend stopping by“

“The previous owners were great. The current ones are nice people and trying their best to fill in the previous shoes ? Great food btw and service. 4 stars but they got an additional bonus star ? for giving me their Aloe Vera pup so I can grow my own Aloe plant ?. It's the little nice things like that is what makes me come back. ?Thanks again ?☺️ and good luck!“

“Wonderful music, food and great ambience. Highly recommended.“

“Great food and great service . exactly what is needed when going out !“

“What a great surprise right off the Taconic. Staff was very nice and helpful. Surprised how fresh and perfectly prepared all the food was. Huge menu! I had a turkey sandwich and my partner had the fried chicken sandwich. Nice diner+ atmosphere. Can’t recommend highly enough.“

“I've been to Dutchess Diner on multiple occasions - all for professional-related networking or rewards during my time at local businesses and we always found it to be a very great and welcoming place to go.

The service is consistently great, food is what you would expect and you will likely come away with multiple meals.

Keep in mind this is a standard all-american eats diner (do forget if they have international cuisine options so someone please correct me), but it is typically a good balance between taste and price.“

“Awesome food and the service is good“

“Food was phenomenal! I had chicken Mahoneys and it was to die for!“

“Excellent restaurant! Fabulous service! Incredible food! Highly recommended!“

“We had our wedding reception at JB’s and we can’t recommend them enough! Mark and Tracey were wonderful in helping us prepare and set everything up, and they made a typically stressful experience as easy as possible. Our guests are still raving about how delicious the food and drinks were! The wait staff was great too - our glasses were always full. We were a little nervous about the tent in October but the heaters kept it warm and toasty in there, even during a nor’easter. Plus, you really can’t beat cocktail hour on the patio - fire pits, beautiful view of the golf course, and passed apps. Highly recommend JB’s Bar & Grill / MKAT Catering for your next event!“

“Great people and great food. I can't wait to try their pizza, I heard it was just as great as their sandwiches!!!!“

“Me and my wife are breakfast enthusiasts. Whether it is a new Diner or a new restaurant we are always looking for a new breakfast spot. We came here after my wife had a minor dental procedure. There was a little wait but we didn't mind it was like 5 minutes. When we were seated we were greeted by our waitress, Jennifer. She was awesome all morning. Very vibrant personality with great energy. She explained menu items made my wife a special Coffee and made our experience that much better. The food was outstanding. My wife had scrambled eggs with French toast because she could not eat anything super hard and she has been talking about those eggs days after we left. I got an omelette with pancakes and they were very good. The price to food ratio was outstanding. We are looking forward to coming back. We recently moved to the area and sometimes go to a diner or cracker barrel but it think this will be our new go to for breakfast and once we try the lunch or dinner it will be our go to for that as well. Also again Thank You Jennifer you were awesome“

“Always a good time and good food“

“Great place for some good drinks , great tap, great food. Plenty of outdoor space if you wanna venture outside and also free parking. There’s fish behind the bar you can stare at and overall it’s always been a good time.“

“I recently had the pleasure of dining at Joe Willy’s Seafood House, on Rt. 9 in Wappinger Falls and it was truly a wonderful experience from beginning to end. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, the kind of place where you immediately feel comfortable and welcomed. The food was outstanding, it was fresh, flavorful, and clearly prepared with care. What made the experience especially memorable was the hospitality of the owners, Joe and Deana. Their presence and genuine warmth create something special. You don’t just feel like a customer, you feel like a guest they truly appreciate. That kind of personal touch is rare and makes all the difference. The service was attentive and friendly throughout, adding to an already exceptional evening. This is the kind of place you look forward to returning to and sharing with family and friends. Joe Willy’s Seafood House is truly a gem.“

“The new menu is delicious ..... It’s all Greek to me“

“The food, the Friday night bands, and all of the staff !!! <3“

“Excellent place & even better food! I've been to the Ramen By Rare place 3 times and each time I had an amazing experience. Food is 10/10! I'm surprised it's not jammed packed with a waiting list for 15 minutes to be seated. I pray Keith Lee comes here and does a review cause it's no way it should be me and like 3 other people here on a Friday night.“

“We had my daughter’s Sweet 16 Party here this past Saturday. Everything was exceptional. The place looked beautiful & the food was amazing. Guests were all raving about how good the food i was. All the staff were really great. The Banquet Manager Fran was incredible to work with. She was so attentive to all our needs. Fran was so easy to work with, always responded right away when I contacted her & she worked so hard to ensure it was a special day for us. Really impressed with this venue & the staff. Highly recommend!!“

“Best bar food around, great environment and staff is always friendly“

“First time here. Great spot to chill out. They had a live DJ (DJ Big Will) who was spinning some great songs for the evening. The food was good (had some cheeseburger sliders and fries) the bartender was great. I'm not a big drinker, but they had these hard ciders that were very good. Definitely a nice spot I can see coming back to.“

“Best place on campus for a proper meal. Quality varies a lot depending on who's cooking, but there are some things that are very consistent.Most things can be ordered using the meal plans pick 3 option (for those who don't know that's using a meal swipe for one main item, a drink, and a side).Wait time will be different depending on what you order. Usually burgers are very fast, pizza takes a bit longer, and Rossie's or noodles takes the longest (during busy times over 30 minutes).Speaking of Rossie's, if you've had the real deal than don't bother getting it here. This is still Sodexo making it, they just have access to the same ingredients and recipes. Also they're missing roast beef so you can't get the best thing Rossie's has anyways.Very strong vegetarian options if you don't mind eating the same thing a lot. The tofu for the noodles isn't anything to write home about and sometimes you'll need to break it up and let it warm up in the broth for a bit, but it's still pretty dang good.Top choices would be:1. Noodles, or oodles as they call it for some unknown reason.2. Pizza. Just make sure one of the good people is there to make it.3. Burger, they're not great but you'll get the same thing every time4. Rossie's. It's still pretty good, just not close to the real thing.“

“This sports bar is absolutely incredible. The place itself is so nice with a really cool setup that makes it fun whether you’re there to watch a game or just hang out. The staff is consistently friendly and welcoming, and the food always comes out quickly—which is a huge plus. We’ve eaten here multiple times and have never once been disappointed. It’s a family-friendly, local spot with an awesome atmosphere and a great beer selection. They’re always rotating their beers, so it’s a fun place to try something new every visit. The boneless wings are amazing, and the jalapeño ranch wrap special was seriously to die for. Everything we’ve tried has been on point. If you’re looking for a great local sports bar with excellent food, great service, and a welcoming vibe, this place is it.“

“The shrimp Rasta pasta is really so good also the Mac and cheese .. But I can’t say the same abt the oxtail plate I got with rice and peas and yams …. Expensive dish to only get 4 small oxtails .. the yams was flavorless the best thing was rice peas even tho it coulda some more gravy. But I’m willing to always give another chance“

“I went on 10/22/2024 to the location on Albany Street in Poughkeepsie N.Y. Today is my mom Birthday we had a party of seven. When we arrived we were told they don't have big table for our size party. They managed to add a table. The food was a 1.5 Everyone fries were over cooked the chicken was dry not a bit of Honey was tasted on the sandwiches. Tap water warm little to barely no ice. It took over 30 minutes to receive our meals no bread sticks salad nothing offered while we waited. It was a HORRIBLE DINNER. We asked if they have any Bday specials were told No. Do you sing Happy Birthday No. Mind you we were told by the person that recommended the place said they do sing Happy Birthday. I'm starting to feel it was a racial situation. Yet we still left tips. The Family had to go find Food upon leaving. The server was great it was her second day. I wish her well“

“Waaay Back Wednesdays dope“

“First time visiting this location, and I was thoroughly impressed! Our server, Cristy, was fantastic—extremely helpful with menu selections, attentive throughout the meal, and made me feel like a regular right away. The food options are excellent, everything is fresh, and the portion sizes are generous. Highly recommend for anyone looking for great food and outstanding service! I had pasta in basil sauce with Crab. Hope to be back soon. Thank you Cristy.“

“Tim and the staff did a great job accommodating our large group as a last minute request during a snowstorm. We had amazing service and food. Thanks so much! We will be back when we are in town again!“

“My wife & I love eating here. We've never had a bad meal - it's always delicious! Service is excellent. We love having Missy as our server. She is the absolute best!“
