Live music was on point as well as the service. Enjoyed our cocktails too. Great spot for after dinner entertainment and night cap. Didn’t eat but food looked delicious.

On Saturday night I decided for the first time to have a cocktail at your local restaurant and bar. The live music and adult atmosphere fit my age group. I purchased a drink at the bar and sat at a window table facing the band. The band played a mix of styles including R&B and reggae. Here is where things were wrong. I sat for 1 hour and was not approached by a server. Two of your female servers walked around to attend to all the tables surrounding me but never once looked my way. I attempted to make eye contact and at 6ft, 240 bald and brown skin I believe I stand out. But no. So here is my question WHY! WHAT AM I TO BELIEVE? AND HOW CAN THIS STILL HAPPEN IN TODAY'S TIME. YOUR LEMON IS SOUR AND I DESERVED SERVICE & AN ANSWER.

Unfortunately this use to be a good place. I get the restaurant business is difficult, but stripping you menu down, then stripping down your portion sizes is not a recipe for success. You may have been better off making yourself a tapas restaurant. At least it would set you apart from the other the restaurants in New Paltz and I know what I was getting when walking in. Granted to food is still prepared well and tastes good, but your looking for a meal instead of an overpriced snack, this is not your place.

They should call this place portion squeeze. My hungry son ordered the short ribs and they should not use plural because the portion was one rib! And overpriced too!

First and last time there going there, water glasses were dirty, asked the waitress to replace took a while I looked at the bar there, she is looking at about 15 glasses before she found clean ones not a good sign, oysters were good not much the mess up there, got the beet salad well that was a JOKE the portion was ridiculously small 4 strands of greens, ( Literally) my wife asked for more greens the waitress replied that's how we do it here, 4 pieces of beet, 1 walnut and goat cheese, salad was taste but not enough for a small child. 1/4 of the plate rest empty, so we didn't order anything else and left. BTW the waitress informed us at the beginning what we order will come out as the kitchen pleases. so, the entree can come before the appetizer she said yes... Plates too small for the price... they keep this up they won't make it here....

I have been waiting to try this Restaurant since they opened. Not rushing there, because I wanted to see what it would be like “after they settled in” and “got comfortable” not when they were on their tippy top Premier Performance.
To say disappointed does not even come close. To begin with, our waiter was never to be found, our drinks were constantly empty and after delivering the food, he never came back to see if it was even okay. Now the food, you want to tell me how a hamburger on a bun “exclusively on a plate without even the garnish of a lousy pickle” makes a nice presentation or was worth $18 for my kid, it not only looked sparse and ridiculous and “un appetizing”…. It was ordered medium and came DARK RED in the middle, which, of course we did not realize until after she put ketchup on it and it was too late to put it back on the grill. I ordered the lobster mac & cheese. It was a greasy mess. Absolutely no lobster meat, lol. Did not even have the flavor of lobster. But instead, with nothing but a super greasy macaroni and cheese in a tiny skillet… seriously, leave out the sausage grease please!!!!
The drinks were weak and they were so overpriced. I ordered margaritas on the rocks. I received a little tiny rock glasses, full of ice, full of sour mix with a splash of tequila. I do not drink. I had three and felt nothing. At some thing like $14 a pop mind you. Not only have I lived here all my life, as well as continually through my life frequented all of the area four and five star restaurants even worked in some during my college years,so I know of which I speak!
Basically: I give the place

If it wasn’t for the hype and the atmosphere, you’d be out of business already, I don’t care how much you love New Paltz or that you met at SUNY so many moons ago! Lol

My first time here. Service was excellent even though they were extremely busy. I had the Brussels for an app and the burger for dinner. The Brussels although delicious were a bit mushy, they weren't as crispy as I would have liked but had a nice flavor. The burger was cooked perfectly and was delicious. The fries were perfect too served with aioli and ketchup. They mentioned that a menu change may be coming soon, but I posted the current one as of last week.

Parking: I chose to drive to the municipal lot. When I visited the parking lot was free since it was after 6pm. You may sometimes find side street parking, metered, or behind the building, free, if you can find a space when it's not super busy.
