This is a brilliant place serving fine dining food at reasonable prices next to the Hudson River. I can't say enough good things about the food. lobster roll. Beef short rib ravioli. Clams. Buratta. All so good would make bank in Manhattan. Staff is great. And on a late summer evening looking at at upper Hudson River a bit magical.

The food is great and Don and Henry are Johnny on the spot with fuel at the dock. It's a great place when you're going to or coming from a long day on the water.

Whatever you do do not get the lump crab appetizer. The avocado was perfect, but the crab, which is why it’s so expensive was fishy and not edible. The steak, which is not cheap had a lot of grizzle or fat and was quite chewy. My suggestion would be to get the salmon Caesar salad, which was very good as well as the sweet potato fries and regular fries. The staff is very friendly and nice. I just feel like there’s some items on the menu you should definitely Steer clear of.
Obviously, the location of being outside is really nice.

We fell in love. The location, the food, the serenity, and the service were all above and beyond. Where else can you be served by Ygritte from GOT who was well in tune with our, take it slow-we had a week vibe, and played along like a Mariah Carey backup singer. We will be back. I think if Jimmy Buffet (R.I.P.) had ever been there, he would have bought the place on the spot.

Our server was nice, but she wasn't able to tell us what came with the special meals. Which made me order something different. She didn't offer to find out.

I love The Basin Grill. The food is so good. However, my last experience there was absolutely awful. Saturday July 19 it’s my birthday and my husband made a reservation Friday for Saturday for 5 pm for 6 people. We show up and are told there’s no room outside and we’d have to wait. My husband said ā€œeven with a reservationā€ with an attitude the young hostess said ā€œ yeah we don’t have roomā€ A guy managed to put a couple tables together for us, said that’s for us so we were sat within 10 minutes. After that 10 minutes, in direct sun light we had to wait about 20 minutes before we even got to place a drink order. Another 15 minutes goes by, they brought my husband’s beer and took our appetizer order. Still no other drinks. Appetizers start to come out. We ordered Brussels, medium wings and street corn. Brussels great. Wings! Another waitress came over and said it wasn’t our wings. My mom already touched them but she definitely doesn’t want hot so we send them back…waitress came back- still no drinks and says there is nothing they can do about the wings. I spoke up and said- they didn’t make them wrong-you grabbed someone’s else’s order- finally get drinks. My mom’s drink had dead ants floating ( we realize it’s outside, but still gross) have the waitress get a new one and finally the correct wings and street corn. - we decided not to order meals and leave. $100 later, and a 20% tip still because we can’t not tip…I was so excited to share this place with my mom, aunt and a couple friends and let’s just say it didn’t excite them. We will try again in the future but this experience was awful.

Placed an order for a simple burger...came out wrong. Which ok mistakes happen waited a while during which rest of my party ate their dinners. Only to get told someone else got my order evidently and they had the burger the waitress tried to serve me available if I wanted it. Passed on that ended up eating just the appetizer we had ordered. Did not seem that busy and plenty of staff seem to working. No manager came to the table to try to rectify the situation. Our bill was still 50 bucks for one appetizer two drinks one being a beer and one meal. Better options are out there might have to drive to get to them but not a place I would recommend or return to.

We stopped in for a quick drink and app. Lori was out served and was just the kindest with great recommendations! Can't wait to come back and bring more friends.

First off, Lori is amazing and helped us have such a lovely afternoon relaxing on the patio after exploring the national park and historical sites nearby. If you eat here, I hope you get Lori too. Secondly food was good prices and prepared well. The pulled chicken nachos were shockingly delicious as well as The Henry fried chicken sandwich. 12/10 stars. The live music right on the water by the docks is fantastic. Already planning a trip back up from Troy asap.
