New American Restaurants near Rhinebeck, NY

“Most everything was amazing and delicious..The caviar frites, unfortunately, were so oversalted, they were inedible..(.I say that as someone who always asks for salt at places that don't have it on the tables) The cocktails were wonderful, as were the rabbit and schnitzel, ( what kind of witchcraft is that gf breading!?wonderfully crisp)oysters fresh. Service was ok, but I think the servers should dress more professionally..nothing crazy, maybe white shirt, black pants, long hair tied back. Will return. Food was that good.oh..next time we will look at bill more closely..ostensibly tip is included..A friend in the industry said it was illegal..server mustve been happy to get 40%...“

“Unbelievable food. Best service in the world!“

“My husband and I took a little day trip from Albany today with no real destination in mind, besides checking out Samuels Sweet Shop. As we drove through town, your restaurant caught our eye! After asking the sweet clerk at Sam’s how your food was, we decided to have lunch on her suggestion. And we are so glad we did! The interior of the restaurant is very nice and it was so warm and cozy as we entered. Your staff were wonderful. We each had a drink… I had a Bellini and he chose a beer. Our server was nice enough to look up the brewery his beer was from for us too (nice added touch that he didn’t have to do) We started our meal with calamari. The breading was so delicious and not heavy and the pineapple dipping sauce was a tasty surprise. I ordered the hot chicken sandwich and he opted for steak. My chicken was the perfect blend of hot and sweet and so good. My husband’s steak was perfectly and we both enjoyed the horseradish sauce it was served with. Both served with your homemade shoestring fries. Both, so good! We had a lovely time sitting and conversing. Your waitstaff checking in just enough to make sure we were taken care of and not pushy to get us out. Overall we loved it! We can’t wait to come back in warm weather and try your outdoor seating. I wish I had gotten our servers name, as he deserves the kudos for being so pleasant!“

“Stopped in for a yummy dinner after touring the gorgeous home of FDR and LOVED it. Had a fabulous burger paired with a fabulous spicy Bloddy Mary. The bar is stunning and the staff is so lovely. Perfect gem“

“What a treasure in uptown Kingston! It was a last minute decision to find a good salad last night. Well, we hit gold! The salads were unique and delicious! The presentation was beautiful. Max the bartender/server was one of the most charming people I’ve met in a long while. I will be back to try everything n the menu!“

“Absolutely fantastic! The food and service outstanding. Very clean and servers were so attentive. The manager checked on us twice. The fried okra was a hit with our crowd! We will be back!“

“I have had the pleasure of tasting the dill potato salad twice. I can say it is far surpassed my expectations and I look forward to having it again.“

“This cafe is a gem. Not only does the cafe have great food but I especially love the carefully curated specialty items, grab and go meals and family style takeaways for those busy days and catering options to making hosting a breeze. Quality and convenience.“

“incredible!! service was excellent, food was fantastic. was in town from Maine/Canadian border! incredible!!!“

“We all arrived hungry to a shockingly full parking lot. As an ex-industry person I can say we got our table touched 20 times here which was nice, but actually as a diner maybe a bit too much especially if the table touches didn't result in the proper service. It was a dark and stormy spring Saturday night, we arrived at 630, a half hour early for our reservation but were seated promptly. It took zero minutes for who appeared to be the bartender to ask us for our drink orders, while she remembered the wine and bourbon orders she forgot my hot tea even after we had a whole conversation about it. When our actual waitress arrived I had to reorder the tea and the timing on the warm up had about already passed. That being said I often order hot tea before dinner and it was pretty awesome that the hot water came in a separate metal mini kettle along with the tiniest tea cup in North America. It reminded me of Europe actually the tea cup was sooo small, maybe 4oz but the kettle had another 24oz of super hot water for me which kept me very happy throughout the meal.

I didn't get my honey with it though even though I ordered it twice with two people now. I was about to have to ask for the honey when the bartender ran it over before I could but then... no spoon. Not a spoon anywhere on the table actually, I gave up and used my fork for the night in the tea. When we were approached and my 80+yr old mother began to order our mains the waitress cut her off and left mid order bc she said the kitchen was calling her. Huge no-no as far as Im concerned, this alone looses them one star forget about the tea.

When she came back we were all happy to learn we all got salads and sides with our entrees, I ordered the schnitzel which was our entire impetus for the visit as I consider myself somewhat of a schnitzel connoisseur. My gf tried to sub mushrooms for her side but when it arrived the waitress had added it as an add'l side and gave her zucchini even though she didn't order it and I witnessed them having a conversation about it.

Our salads all came drowning in dressing with one rock hard tomato, at first I thought it was a full reddish, I love dressing but this was a lot even for me; the dressing was actually really good but strongly recommend ordering dressing on the side at this restaurant. I also got the rice which was very good. The schnitzel came in two pieces with more salad, kind of, just arugula and tomatoes not mentioned on the menu now no dressing haha.

Definitely one of the greasiest schnitzels I've had in all my days which was even more noticeable after I gobbled both of them down with a pool of oil left over on my plate. After being served our entrees we got 7 table touches from various people within 5 minutes. This was a lot, too much as we were finally all just wanting to eat. I didn't ever mention the late tea, missing spoon or drowning salad.

Overall everyone was lovely, the restaurant was nice and (dad had no complaints so) we were happy with our overall experience even though they seemed to be having a giant other party in the other room the whole time; unfortunately I just can't give them 5 stars“

“We had the best time at dinner. The food was so fresh and tasty. The breading on the clams tasted so good. Everything we had tasted homemade and fresh. I can’t wait to go back again. I would go everyday if it were closer to me. I live in Albany.“

“I went in here last night and sat at the bar. At first, the bartender was a little bit rude. But he came around and was fine after that. I ordered a small pepperoni pizza. It was huge. It could easily have fed 2 people. The pizza was very good. Not the best I've ever had, but very solid indeed. The wine pour was also very generous. The prices were very modest My only negative was that it's very noisy. Maybe a few properly placed plants, but a good experience all in all.“

“Amazing atmosphere paired with inspired food and fantastic service. My wife and i were lucky enough to be invited to their soft opening. A great new and fun look to the already beautiful landmark. To get to the point, I’ve been craving some items since we left. The mushroom toast(not a item i would normally order; now I’m lusting), the charcuterie was so advanced from what I’ve already loved at my local favorite places, I’ve told friends about the honey comb alone that made an impression. Entrees: the sea bass, was excellent. The show stopper for me was the ribs! They have been on my mind since! We ended the night with the dessert platter and it completely put a bow on top of the experience. If you’re looking for a date night, a fun friends night or even just pickies and drinks, black barn has put the time into making the menu versatile and delicious. Do yourself a favor and show up there, you’re guaranteed to find a favorite.“

“Great place and nice people and great food & drinks“
