“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!!“

The wait staff does not speak English so bring google translate.

The food was incredibly delicious and well seasoned and fresh.

Tacos were not on the menu but they made them for us.

Highly recommend the fried fish, cerviche, churrasco.

The outdoor seating was also a nice touch.“

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.“

The staff extremely friendly and knowledgeable. The food....oh my goodness the food was worth the wait. It was delicious and plenty for what you paid for. 10/10 if we find ourselves back out this way would definitely come again!!“

“Wanted to give a shout out to the restaurant, Freddy’s, in Pleasantville. Went with a couple of girlfriends a few weeks ago and then again with my hubby last week. Both meals were delicious. The appetizers are yummy! Most of all, though, I wanted to remark on the atmosphere. The people in charge are just delightful. Had a chance to meet the owner. He told me he named the restaurant after his grandfather ( forgive, it might have been his father). Either way I thought it was nice. He has a young family and loves what he does. They have been open for two years, but I just found them now. If you haven’t checked them out, you should soon!“

“Being from Maine I’ll never admit this publicly, but we had the very best clam chowder, even better than anything we’ve had in Maine at the Station! It was so good! Again, I’d lose credibility with my Maine friends if I said this in public, so I trust Facebook will protect my identity! 🤣😂🤣 Thank you for great hospitality and a wonderful meal!“

“Came here for brunch, I really enjoyed the variety that they had on the menu along with the kids Menu. The atmosphere is cozy and clean with excellent service. We had a large group with kids, it was nice that it wasn't too busy and staff didn't seem to mind that the kids were wandering around because they can't sit still. We also stayed for quite a bit of time. The staff was attentive and food was reasonably priced.“

“We passed on our way from the airport to drop off our daughter at the WPntrain station. Allot of locals and it is apparent customers have been coming for years. They make atuff fresh, so there is a wait. Prices were reasonable, and we definitely got our money's worth. There are some apaces to sit outside under umbrellas, was too hot for that on that day though. Would go again!“

“In addition to many delicious family dinners over the years we have hosted two wonderful parties at Beni’s in the last year and we couldn’t be happier with the food and service! Always rave reviews from our guests and they are so accommodating!“

“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.“

“The food here is absolutely delicious! I love going for breakfast, and they also have great options for lunch. They even do catering. The staff is incredibly friendly and kind—when I had my baby in one arm, they insisted on helping me carry my coffee to the car. That kind of thoughtfulness is rare these days and makes this place extra special!

Their prices are also very reasonable too!“

“Great food, great atmosphere, great staff“

“Good food, good view, good ambiance, and civil volume level for social meal.“

“Care and concern were the hallmarks of Mariposa starting with responsiveness when I asked Chef questions about the menu offerings even before making the reservation. Very flexible and accommodating with the menu resulting in many more offerings to choose from for those with challenging dietary restrictions. The staff created a special table arrangement for our group given mobility limitations. And then the wait staff consistently demonstrated their light touch at the right moment to meet our needs, answering questions, providing refills and options for consideration. I look forward to dining at Mariposa more regularly and hope that you will also.“

“Today we held an After celebration of life luncheon. Family and friends were brought together , the wait staff plus (Delicious Food) and attention were above and beyond attentive to everyone’s wants and needs. We cannot Thank You enough. The Anstett Family“

“Thirty (30!) of us came to The Cabin for the very first time for a special midday Sunday private gathering, most from from Manhattan or Brooklyn & other parts of NY, but also from NJ< DC, South Carolina and even New Mexico, completely new to this chosen location, and we were stunned by both the quality and quantity of the servings, especially at such a reasonable price.
Five of of 7 at our table who had salmon were knocked out by the huge, yet still perfectly delicious portions, certainly the largest and tastiest I'd ever seen for, again, what was a very modest price. The rice was also unexpectedly zesty, enhanced by cinnamon (?) or some other wonderful herb or spice that we enjoyed but couldn't exactly identify. String beans were good, and we really were also pleased by the warm, seemingly fresh-baked rolls, the zesty caesar salad and our perfectly fine glasses of wine, both pinot noir & chardonnay.

Overall, a terrifically satisfying dining experience, especially at such a bargain rate.“

“Couldn’t have picked a better spot for a Sunday brunch. The menu was surprisingly up to date and pleasantly well laid out with fan fare and casual pub themed food. Quality of food was also top notch and as a bonus they had the NFL games all over the multiple screens. A win all around.“

“Delicious food, inexpensive and comfortable environment!“

“Our 10+ lb skirt steak for Christmas was a perfect cut. Loved it. So easy to cook when you have great quality steak. I also grabbed a rice ball to have for lunch from the prepared foods and it was awesome. Can’t wait to go back!“

“Great diners always fresh and delicious“

“Feel right at home. A great place for family and friends.“

“Rebecca was an amazing bartender. Very attentive and served with a smile. The manager Raul was also very attentive in making sure we had everything we needed and were taking care of. The food was really good and the ambiance was great. We really look forward to seeing Rebecca again and enjoying what Bar 141 has to offer again.“
