Restaurants near Mongaup Valley

“My husband and I have been here at least a half dozen times and we enjoy the food and the service...the waitress refers to herself as "Salty Maryanne"...is she a little salty? Sure but that doesn't bother us...she and my husband are both from Brooklyn so they talk about the old neighborhood. Bottom line is anyone can have an off day...you have no idea what other people are dealing with and they have to come to work and do the best they can do. As a former waitress, I guess I'm just a little more sympathetic than most. I certainly wouldn't trash a restaurant after one experience there but that's just me.”

“We had catering this weekend on both Friday and Saturday for 16 people while golfing nearby and the pulled pork, corn bread, brisket and ribs were amazing. Can't wait for next year to expand to the burnt ends. Thanks Big Kevs”

“By Far…,The Best!!! WoW 🍦🍦🍦”

“What a wonderful experience tonight! I read a review earlier today that mentioned the Chilean Sea Bass. Hubby had never had that dish and was happy it was a special tonight. I had the mushroom ravioli which was also delicious. We couldn't leave without the almond creme cake and cannoli to finish. We might try to squeeze another visit in during our week up here.”

“Great food! Friendly staff.”

“The food is home made and delicious! The owner is a nice guy and served us even when we was closing. We had the empanadas and they were fabulous! Can’t wait to try the tacos next !”

“We got out of the car and the owner was sweeping the floor right. Well he told us he didn’t have no ribs. But he had that chicken! Boy oh boy was it delicious!! We were treated like family as soon as we walk in. He gave me a sample of their fresh homemade coleslaw and by far best I’ve ever had. We walked out of there with full belly’s and our names on the wall. We will never forget about our experience! Recommend everyone to give it a try who hasn’t!”

“What a great find! We had dinner at Ciao Bella before a concert at Bethel Woods and was treated to find dining at its best. My malbec was a generous serving. Hubby ordered the pork chop which was huge, seasoned generously and cooked to perfection. I ordered the Pollo Marsala, also cooked to perfection. The chocolate Gelato was a great way to end the meal. Very attentive service.... and a bonus napkin-folding lesson! Lovely atmosphere, highly recommend.”

“We had a very special dinner with friends at Forage and Gather on Saturday and it was lovely. Such a neat atmosphere from the minute you walk in. Candles and fresh flowers on every table and the tables remind me of going to my grandmother's. The appetizer was so good, a flatbread with cheese and spinach, maybe ramps too. Our dinners were so tasty and we even had to take some home so we had room for dessert. Steak had a chimichurri that was to die for. The Orange Chicken was delicious with an Orange sauce that was light and not overpowering and I especially loved the wine pairing suggestion on the menu along with a very homemade tasting fried rice. I could tell all the ingredients they use are healthy and top notch. Speaking of homemade, dessert was homemade chocolate cake and here's the part I loved too...,Jane's Vegan Triple Chocolate Ice Cream. Oh we will definitely be back. Loved being able to pick up a few goodies at the market part to take home too. Still enjoying the Dried Chorizo and snacks we picked up. lovely experience!!”

“If I could give Zaftig more than 5 stars, I would I walked in when it was super busy, but the level of service here is unlike anything I've ever seen in my entire life. Every single person working on the team is on another level. Even with a crowd, they managed to make me feel like I was the only person in the entire shop. Fast, attentive, and unbelievably welcoming-I am genuinely shocked by how incredible this staff is. Do not hesitate to come here. 10/10 service!”

“This past weekend, we hosted a fantastic fundraiser at Bridge and Tunnel Brewery in Liberty, NY. This charming venue is perfect for any event, featuring a stage, ample seating, and a spacious dance floor. It's also kid- and pet-friendly, offering a diverse selection of brews. We welcomed 50 guests for a lively evening filled with dancing, drinks, and games. Attendees enjoyed board games, cornhole, and darts, all in a delightful setting enhanced by rustic chunky tables and beautiful stained glass lighting. It was a memorable night!”

“Excellent service and delicious food.”

“Best meatball I’ve ever eaten!”

“I was at Kartrite water resort with the family, and whenever you stay at these resorts, they hold you hostage with poor quality food. Nelly's is only 5 minutes away. This place has soul; the food is great with authentic dishes, the prices are budget friendly, the staff are nice, and the atmosphere is clean and casual. We need to support these privately owned ma and pop establishments. Or the only thing that will be left is a BK or Wendy's on ever corner.”

“The best chicken bacon ranch sandwich in town!!!!!”

“Great food, generous portions, and fair prices. I loved that the food wasn’t greasy and tastes homemade. The place is decorated really nice, is clean, and the service is quick with friendly staff. I recommend the pork pineapple tacos 😋”

“Teriyaki chicken is very good”

“This place is the best hands down.”

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Perfect Family Dining Gem in Monticello!
Our family stayed at the Kartrite Resort and found this absolute treasure of a restaurant! From the moment we walked in, we were enveloped in such a warm, wonderful family atmosphere. The heart of this place is truly the family running it. It was so special to see the father working side-by-side with his sons—some warmly taking orders at the front with big smiles, and others diligently preparing food in the kitchen. You can feel the pride and love they put into their business.

And the food? ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. Every single one of us, from the adults to the kids, cleaned our plates. The kids are still raving about the fries (some of the best we've ever had!) and their meals. The menu is incredible, with unlimited choices to satisfy any craving. Whether you want a hearty comfort meal, a fresh salad, or something delicious for the little ones, they have it all.

If you're visiting the area or staying at Kartrite, this is a must-visit. Delicious, generous food served by the kindest, hardest-working family. We left with full bellies and full hearts. We can't wait to come back on our next trip! Thank you for an exceptional dining experience.”
