Restaurants near Old Chatham

“I look forward to eating here every time I’m in the area! I love the food! The service is awesome! Every! Time! I especially appreciate the gracious and generous nature of the people who work here. And the owners are wonderful. They have an establishment that consistently provides an excellent meal and the perfect place to catch up with old friends.”

“Clever and creative mixture of Japanese and American. Lots of flavor. The chicken wings were some of the best I’ve ever had. One of the owners came around and checked on every table to make sure everyone was happy. I do have an issue with restaurants that include the gratuity and on top of that imply that’s it’s appreciated to tip more. Didn’t love our server basically explaining how all the added taxes paid for the food, kitchen staff and servers while also mentioning additional gratuity is welcome. It’s a tad expensive. The restaurant is located in an old textile factory so the acoustics are terrible, it’s very loud but I still really enjoyed the meal & I recommend checking this lively restaurant.”

“For the sake of full disclosure I’ve worked with the owners for over twenty years in the television industry. They have brought the same dedication and amazing attention to detail that has resulted in their tremendously successful careers, to their wonderful new restaurant. They have thought of EVERY detail from the whimsical videos playing in the rest rooms to the sugar cubes for your espresso... they have missed nothing. The menu is inventive and perfectly executed... Watermelon Gazpacho?! Whoa! The unique presentation of the Calamari appetizer was wonderful. Bouillabaisse?! You don’t find that as the seafood option very often... what a treat. Others in my group enjoyed perfectly cooked steaks and the slightly smoky Mac & Cheese. Of course the cheese plates are spectacular. This is one of those meals you won’t forget! But wait did I mention the speakeasy downstairs? The perfectly appointed room features an amazing menu of craft cocktails AND six draft beers to choose from... including Ommegang Rare Vos... you simply don’t find that on tap anywhere!! Finally a word about the service. It was impeccable, perfectly attentive without being stuffy. Chris and Ellen have created a destination restaurant!”

“Great Beer choices!! very friendly atmosphere! Great food!!!”

“My husband and I (and pup Hamish) stopped in from our travels and we honestly had one of the best coffees and Matcha’s we have ever had! They had Little Wolf coffee for the espresso (and that’s when we knew it would be good!) AND it’s such a sweet wee shop with curated local goodies! Justin was the best and a good chat! :) we will definitely be coming back if we ever come back to the area! :)”

“Hawaii Poke & Ramen is such a great find near Schodack Island State Park. The restaurant is extremely clean, thoughtfully decorated, and has a fun, welcoming atmosphere.
Ordering is easy—you can use the self-service kiosk or order directly with the staff. The food was delicious, and we were especially happy to be able to enjoy fresh poke and ramen while camping nearby.
It’s also very family-friendly: they have high chairs for little ones, plenty of parking, and the overall setup makes for a convenient, comfortable stop. Definitely a great option for a quick meal or a relaxed family dinner.”

“Five of us celebrated a birthday at Fork & Whisk yesterday, and we loved it. Three of us are repeat customers, and two were introduced. They also plan to return with others. The service was accommodating, friendly, and fun! The menu offered so many delicious choices. My favorite is the Tuscan beans and greens; however, I sampled all the others from my generous friends. I highly recommend you go there for a delightful gastronomical experience!”

“Amazing specials and great cocktails!”

The food was delicious and extremely reasonably priced. Even though it's an hour and a half away from us we plan on going there again soon. It's worth the drive!!!”
