50 Best American Restaurants near Pleasantville

“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!“

“It’s all about the food and atmosphere, Vela has both! So delicious and a def must try!“

The ambience of the store mixed with the friendliness of the employees makes for a fantastic experience all around. There is variety in every option on the menu and more importantly it all taste DELICIOUS! I've referred many people to come eat here and everyone leave happy, I'm certain you will too!“

“Fantastic local spot, gets quite busy during peak lunch and dinner/weekends. Nice salads, burgers and wings. Lots of interesting patty choices (elk, bison, etc). Also, one of the best (most diverse, interesting) rotating domestic crafr tap lists in the county. They're always playing great rock, blues & funk.“

“New unique restaurant with a cool vibe. The menu offers many tasty treats that will excite your palette. Our server Vanessa was excellent and attentive. The Owner Brian stopped by and made sure we were enjoying our experience. His personality is warm and inviting. A true Gem in a crowded field.“

“I've only eaten there once, but I can see myself visiting again. Service was very good, and friendly. The "Alvin" Grilled Chicken Sandwich was tasty, though the Chicken was a bit chewy. 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.“

“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!!“

“Our server Matt provided us with a great experience. He was super patient with our family of 6 plus my sister in law. He even gave us a great suggestion that saved us a couple of bucks.

We included a few pictures.

The food came out fast and was great. This really would’ve been a 5 star review had it not been for the manager/supervisor Jose. We had asked the hostess for a high chair and never received one. I had made eye contact with Jose for a minute or two and finally just flagged him down. Rather than just grabbing it himself he went to find the waiter who was busy punching in our order…just one suggestion Jose, lead from the front….support your staff and help fill in the gaps rather than talking up clients at the bar.“

“Went to a party there. Felt bad that we had one waitress who had little help, but was really amazing regardless! The food was great! Can’t believe I have never been here! Definitely will be back. Have to try that Bloody Mary!“

“The restaurant offers an impressive variety of vegan options. While they do serve chicken and some meat sandwiches and eggs, the staff ensures a safe dining experience by using dedicated grills specifically for plant-based items to prevent any cross-contamination. As always it is advised to ask again when ordering. Additionally, they have a delightful assortment of vegan pastries, like banana bread and blueberry scones.“

“We had a fantastic dinner at Sweet Grass tonight. The food was perfection and the service was impeccable. Our first time here, but will not be our last.“

“Good food and friendly staff.“

“At the time of writing this review, I am completing my graduate program for mental health counseling with Pace University. In the beginning of my program, I had been searching for jobs to keep a form of income while I was also busy with classes. Lee and Joe were incredibly accommodating when hiring me and understood my school situation. They helped work my schedule around my classes so that I could have a steady form of income. When I had to begin my internship, they helped me work my schedule around that as well. Not only is the work environment very friendly, the food is wonderful as well. The freshly made bagels and muffins were always incredible. Now that I'm done with my program and moving out from the area, I certainly am going to miss my usual lunches here.

“The food is reliably good, maybe not spectacular. The desserts, though, ARE spectacular. The drinks are good, too. The only problem with the service is that the bartender also has to wait tables, so everything slows down. Prices are reasonable for Westchester, and the place has a very relaxed vibe.“

“I was just at the Muscoot Tavern lastnight and the food was sooooo good. The Service was great. I highly recommend the Muscoot Tavern!!!“

“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.“

“Wonderful place, warm ,inviting and great food !!! Been a loyal customer for many years !!! Highly recommend!“

“their salads & pizzas are great!“

“We booked tables upstairs for a large party for teenage girls and it was a huge hit. The service was wonderful and attentive and the food was great. Highly recommended and much appreciated.“

“Tonight was our first visit to the Barley House. All 4 of us enjoyed our meals and desserts, found it all tasty and well prepared, the staff and service was friendly, and accoridng to my wife, its was some of best fish and chips she has had.“

“We were headed from NJ to Westchester and looking for an early lunch in Nyack. This place IS A FIND!!! We both had the Main Street wrap and it was DELICIOUS. Place is clean (including bathrooms), great service and very reasonable prices. Look forward to coming back over the bridge just to eat there again.“

“Always a perfect experience. The staff is friendly and professional and pleasant. Food delicious and they go out of their way to make it special. Exactly what one wants in a dining experience. I took my grand daughter for the second time and she loves it too.“

“A very cool place with very good burgers and sandwiches. The pizza also is amazing. I did find the prices somewhat high for what it was though.

Wheelchair accessibility: There are 3 doors just to enter. It is extremely difficult to get someone in a wheelchair into the restaurant as you need multiple people just to open and keep open the multiple doors.“

“Beautiful view we sat right by the water The food was very good“

“Delicious food and excellent service! Extremely courteous staff! A wonderful experience“

“What a hidden gem! For a pleasant dining experience in a modern American restaurant, I enthusiastically recommend Bar 141 tucked away in the ShopRite Shopping Center in Thornwood, NY. Amazing selection of lunch specials at a GREAT value, which included an alcoholic beverage! Attentive staff and a cozy, inviting atmosphere. I can’t wait to go back!

Parking: Plenty of parking spaces.“

“Excellent! Avocado and Poached eggs on Dry well done Rye Toast with tomato and lettuce. Excellent! 5 stars �����“

“Fantastic! Just how a quiet town Cafe should be. Quick and friendly service. I ordered a bacon, egg, and cheese, everything bagel. I could tell just by how they wrapped it, it was perfect. Unwrap the paper and there it is. Perfectly stacked with perfectly cooked everything! Melt cheese, tender eggs, crisp bacon, and a pillowly soft bagel with just the right amount of chew. Great selection and range overall on the menu. Would highly recommend and will be coming back!“

“Fantastic dining, service and entertainment at Pete's Saloon! 5 stars are in each category! We always enjoy the high energy and meeting friends in a friendly dining atmosphere. Thanks to all the staff and the owner, Anthony, for always an excellent time! You Rock!“

“When I left a message to determine if this venue was right for my 70th birthday, Nelson the owner forwarded to me an exceptional menu which met my goals. He and his team were very flexible as I came by numerous times checking table materials and possible table setups. The venue including Nelson, his wife Christine and famy met and exceeded all my expectations Nelson was very patient and accommodating. I had a cocktail hour inside because it was too humid outside. Nelson 's team set up the tables and they were able to deliver an exceptional dessert table. The outside was coiffured beyond beautiful! All in all we were certainly return for other functions!“

“Food was excellent. Everything was fresh and well prepared.“

“Great atmosphere, delicious food and friendly staff, definitely would recommend!“

“This spot was able to hit a home run for every single person in our party of 6! Great food, amazing atmosphere, perfect music and excellent service! We loved every single aspect of our experience!! Kudos to the Chef for creating such spectacular dishes with the ability to intrigue many different palates!

Dietary restrictions: We had two people with a tree nut allergy and the server plus chef were happy to accommodate!“

“The place has great food made by under paid workers. The owner tries to promote workers within but not give them a raise. This is the reason why this place is always hiring because the workers don't stay long. Some workers stick around until they find a better job. Again the food is really good but made by under paid cooks and everybody in the kitchen is under paid as well. But these people have no other choice because it's hard find them to find another job.
