“Micheline is superb! We have had 5 outstanding experiences at this new French establishment... everything is delicious --duck confit salad to foi gras to chicken liver pate` to roasted beet salad to salmon tartare... the steak frites and hamburger are the BEST around!  The menu changes and reflects the great care that goes into each dish. The sides are also fantastic!  Brussels, broccoli, and macaroni gratines, the fries in duck fat are INCREDIBLE!!!!!!!!!!!!  Wine selection, too, is excellent. Overall, this place is spectacular --decor is gorgeous and immaculate and service is equal to the best NYC attentiveness... Owner Jonathan is so charming and a true professional with an amazing pedigree in the restaurant biz. They now have a brunch menu that looks fantastic!  Tuesday night is a special martini and burger night!  Absolutely LOVE this place!“

“I chose this restaurant for all its great reviews, for a birthday dinner and very glad I did. The ambience is off the charts. Our server Fatmir and all other staff were super great. We had the Spedini alla Romano, Eggplant Parmesan, Blackened Branzino and Shrimp w/ Chipotle Aioli and creamy Burnt Cheesecake. All were fantastic and we will be sure to return. 5 stars❗️“

“The new mussel dish is amazing!!“

“Great food. Big portions. Just the right kick.“

“Friendly staff and the food was delicious! Can’t wait air to go back“

“Went there on a Friday night. It took a little while for us to be seated. But once we got seated, our waiter was very attentive and courteous. The food was great and so were the drinks. We had lobster spaghetti and shrimp & crab ravioli. For the drink, i had the gold digger cocktail. It's a lychee martini, ifykyk. The DJ was a vibe. They played afrobeat, R&B/hip-hop, reggae, and Spanish music. It's very loud in there, not a place for convo, but more for turning up. Definitely will be coming back.“

“Plenty of parking. A very nice addition to the Sparkill and Piermont food scene.

Alessandro Rocky were great servers and had great hospitality

From the website:

Chef Vittorio mixes a subtle hint of traditional peasant food with his modern take on fresh, hand-selected seasonal ingredients. The warm, intimate setting of Cucina Verace’s rustic space is a wonderful backdrop to a dining experience rooted in the chef’s past. Chef Vittorio shares the skills he learned in his mother Carolina’s kitchen in Campagna to bring you a southern Italian meal that you won’t soon forget. Chef Vittorio’s frequent trips back to Italy to explore the country’s regions also help to shape the unique menu.“

“Welcoming, intimate pub. Lovely decor. The ceiling in the woman's bathroom is a bit bizarre - take a look. ;-o

Phenomenal patrons = actors, dancers, directors - eclectic mix of local folks, representing the arts.

Stellar barkeeper. Thank you Joe.“

“Nice restaurant, friendly employees. Brunch hours were from 12-5 pm. I didn’t want brunch food bc I heard from others that it was just OK. I ordered the tiny special roll and was informed couldn’t get it until 5 pm due to the brunch menu times. The waitress took our order around 4:20 pm. Then she came back later to take it again-not sure why. The sushi roll was good. I also enjoyed an expressing martini. My friend ordered chicken wings , they were super super tiny. She didn’t complain about the taste though. Only street parking available. Gratuity included for a table for 2.“

“Comida deliciosa y servicio excelente.“

“Food is amazing. Drinks 10 out of 10 I highly recommend this place for small or large get togethers. Staff is very attentive Peter and James the owners are full hands on cleaning tables greeting guests. Bartenders know what they’re doing! Love this place had to show them some love!“

“Go there and ENJOY IT..etc“

“Absolutely love this place. I just wish they did last call half an hour later. As an industry person I just want one or two drinks before it’s time to go home! Their staff is incredibly attentive and it’s clear the owners are always present and have a great attention to detail at their place. Thank you for being such an amazing spot that
Westchester truly needed.“

“I went to SCRV today for the first time after like a year of wanting to go. This is a fire place in the neighborhood that I probably won't go back to because of the people that goes. Dudes be standing on the wall instead of dancing...that's to say, the ratio is pretty good.. A downside (like the first sentence wasn't one) is it closes at 1 AM at least on Fridays. Furthermore...some of the the women are scheming, trying to sell you on the next spot (spoiler: $100 bottles that really cost 30-40 max which would be fine but... They also charge cover-they don't tell you that part.) Additionally, they'll surely call you broke if you opt out of being swindled.

TLDR: Go to SGRV but not wherever else anyone tell you to go. My honest opinion.“

“Husband surprised me with paint and sip for Valentine’s Day last night here. We had a great time. Naomi and her husband were gracious hosts and we had a blast. We will for sure be coming back for another paint and sip night or even karaoke!“

“Went on a Saturday night and they had a guitarist which created such a great vibe. The drinks were amazing as well as the food. Had the ceviche and steak nachos which was perfect for two people. The staff and bartender were attentive and friendly. Will definitely come back.“

“loved service and food expectacular“

“So happy I decided not to go home and cook. I live close by and wanted to try this restaurant for so long. I finally did it. I had the tortilla soup and the flautas. And of course chips with salsa and guacamole. Everything was delicious! Staff was super friendly and attentive. Ambiance is very nice and the music… I was singing and dancing waiting for my food. Loved it!!“

“I came here for the first time for brunch with my fiance. We didn't make a reservation but we were seated instantly.. I would highly encourage making reservations as there were multiple events happening there and we were lucky to get in on a walk-in LOL. The wait staff was very friendly. We had nice conversations and She was attentive. My fiance ordered that oxtail Rasta pasta which was amazing. And I got the chicken and red velvet waffles which was also very good. I liked his dish more though LOL. We also ordered the ackee and saltfish patties. I love that concept. It was creative and very good. I ordered the rum punch( potent and delicious) while my fiance had the bottomless brunch drinks for 1 hour. It included either a screwdriver or a mimosa. The difference if you would like to know is one is vodka and orange juice. The other is champagne and orange juice. We preferred the vodka LOL. Really nice Restaurant. atmosphere was beautiful music on point we were jamming out. We had such a great time. Amazing vibes. Highly highly, highly recommend and will definitely be returning.“

“By far the best new restaurant in Mamaroneck in years! great food and service.“

“The food is a little expensive but the place deserves it, the service is good, they are very friendly and attentive, but above all the food is delicious, I give it a 10/10, but I don't recommend this wrap-type burger because the meat was salty but Outside of that a 10 I loved it.“

“This restaurant was on my list for a while and was happy to finally stumble upon it. Our waiter Johnathan was great, witty, and knowledgeable. We had the draft beer, esquites, tacos de Barbacoa, duck mole, and the pastry/hot chocolate dessert. Food was balanced and delicious. If I had to be critical for this restaurant to reach its peak success- I would say the mole did not come out as hot as it could have (was just slightly warm) and the tacos de barbacoa could have used more balancing and freshness to it. Would definitely recommend and come back“

“Vegan Friendly ❤️🩷 Great place.“

“I played here for Blank-Fest 2022... great room! Great Staff ...Great Fun!!!“

“We LOVO Boro6! It is out Friday night spot (but make sure you grab a reservation!). The staff are super friendly and always attentive. The food is always great — and the bread — I would just eat the bread and be happy! We need more places like this around Westchester! I hope they expand soon.“

“Awesome Instagram place in Pelham with great food which I’ve found by searching for polenta online. Great osobuco and supertoscan for great price, really great. Our waitress Kassandra was very pleaseant, professional and on point. Good and chill, lounge for younger and modern people, and those who appreciate gourmet food. Thanks a lot!, We’ll be back.“

“????? 5-Star Experience at Dyckman Bar! ??️

Had an amazing time at Dyckman Bar last night! The drinks were simply fantastic – expertly crafted cocktails that hit all the right notes. The food? Absolutely delicious and beautifully presented. If you’re looking for a spot with great vibes, top-notch service, and incredible food and drinks, look no further! Highly recommend! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“

“Loved my first experience here. Stopped in after shopping the town. Bartenders Tommy and Anthony were working and made incredible drinks. They were both very inviting and make you feel at home. I will be back to enjoy the atmosphere and great bartending skills.“

“Very classy place. You can get beer and liquor there and play pool and darts there and use the bathroom there.“

“I went to this location and thought wow the flavor of the food was exotic, a taste I never tried before. This was the first time at this location and the service was amazing, I got to meet this pretty girl named Jazmine; it was packed but I still was able to communicate with her.“

Really Beautiful Restaurant, with great staff! The owners love what they do and it shows! My favorite entre is the homemade squid pasta with seafood( get it in the garlic white sauce) Really great! They also have very good steaks for the carnivores out there for one or two people(no need to go into the city to a steakhouse when this restaurant is in the heart of Hartsdale NY, across from metro north! Benny makes the best drinks! They also have a "Really Good Happy Hour"! Whatever you choose you will not be disappointed!“

“Great service and legit delicious food. MUST EAT HERE!!!“

“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.“

“Delicious food with awesome service 🙌🙌🙌“

“This place ia great, though the place may smell like weed i can assure you the staff are not the cause of it but definitely the people who live upstairs or are outside of the restaurant (which marijuana is legal so it wouldn’t matter anyways). Great food, great service & great atmosphere. The nonsense that others have to say is outrageous & shouldn’t be paid mind to. Crawdaddy’s is very welcoming :)“

“Fab cocktails and small plates“

“Great place!! Food was delicious and the service was top notch!! Highly recommend it!!“

“their salads & pizzas are great!“

“Vegan Friendly ❤️🩷 Great place.“

“Last night my boyfriend and I were walking by Coral trying to decide if we should go in. This lady said you should go in - really nice! We went in and it was very nice! The decor, the music - all very lively!? The food- lots of flavor - the drinks: on point?? The manager was so kind to come over to say hello and welcome us! Our server was very attentive - the best! We’ll be back ?“

“Such a beautiful place the staff there is so accommodating and sweet. The drinks and food are to die for.“

“Friendly atmosphere and the food was great.“

“We had some time to kill before an event and this place showed us a great time. Their DJ was fantastic! He knew we weren't regulars and still made us welcome. The food was perfect, if I am drinking I need perfect wings and they hooked it up. All in all the staff was friendly and the space was great I would definitely go back to enjoy another night.“

“This place is a hidden gem. We were looking for place to make our go to spot. Once my foodie fiance tasted the catfish it was goto spot approved. The service is outstanding as they took very good care of us. The food is very tasty and nicely seasoned. We will be back.“

“The restaurant is great, staff very friendly & helpful in food & drink suggestions. Lovely deco, clean well managed. Menu selections are extremely delicious. Saturday night DJ play music which helps the vibe & have a fun evening.“

“Bar attached to the Sonesta White Plains hotel. Limited option for drinks and food, but they are nominally priced when compared to other restaurants nearby. I had steak, it was perfectly cooked and sumptuous. And had egg benedict for breakfast, all tastes good.“

“If you’re looking for a great spot with amazing drinks, good music, and a fun vibe, this place is it. It’s definitely on the pricier side, but the quality makes it worth it. They don’t serve full dinner plates — it’s more about finger foods and small bites — but everything is fresh and tasty. Perfect spot for a night out when you’re more focused on drinks, music, and having a good time.“

“Had delivery and tried food for the first time. Outstanding! Can’t wait to go in person especially all the amazing reviews I’ve read. Packed and delivered perfectly. Tried the sliders, salmon, steak dinner, nachos, skillet cookie. All winners. Highly recommended.“
