“PCC had our 50th Anniversary Celebration at The Thorn- we had the best time! Tonin and all employees were wonderful, kind, easy to work with and responded quickly and clearly to all questions pertaining to our large event. The food was outstanding and the atmosphere was warm, welcoming and beautiful! We had the garage door open and it was so nice. Definitely recommend The Thorn for a party or corporate event! You won't be disappointed.“

“I recently had the pleasure of dining at Freddy's Restaurant, and I must say, it was an incredible experience. The retro-style atmosphere immediately caught my attention upon entering the restaurant. The owners, Matt and Christina, have truly created a unique and inviting ambiance.To start off our evening, my wife and I decided to indulge in some delicious cocktails. She opted for the spicy martini, which packed a flavorful punch, while I enjoyed a classic old-fashioned that was expertly crafted.For appetizers, I couldn't resist trying the deviled eggs, and they were absolutely divine. The creamy filling and perfectly seasoned eggs left me wanting more. My wife decided to go for the French onion soup, and it was nothing short of amazing. The rich flavors and melted cheese on top created a perfect harmony of tastes.Moving on to the main course, I decided to try their burger, but without the bun. The patty was cooked to perfection, juicy and flavorful. But what really took it to another level was the sweet bacon jam topping. It added a delightful twist to the classic burger and left me speechless.My wife opted for the French onion short ribs, and I must say, it was a game-changer. The tenderness of the meat combined with the unique flavors of the French onion sauce created a taste sensation like nothing we had ever experienced before.Overall, Freddy's Restaurant is a must-visit for any food lover. The culinary skills of Chef Matt are truly exceptional, and the attention to detail in every dish is evident. I wish I could give this place 10 stars because it deserves every bit of praise. Don't miss out on the opportunity to dine at Freddy's Restaurant and indulge in a culinary journey that will leave your taste buds begging for more.“

“Canoe was a great find! The reviews were right - the food and ambience was perfect. My husband and I sat at the bar and we had a great time! The bartenders were knowledgeable and helped us with the menu. Kept the flow really nicely and we didn't feel rushed or anything. Highly recommend!“

“Delicious food and nicely decorated interior. Bathrooms clean and waitstaff friendly. About eight beers on tap, and others, bottled. Parking streetside or in nearby lot. In May 2024, Libertarian presidential candidate Lars Mapstead met supporters at this location.“

“We had a wonderful experience having our post-wedding brunch at Mint Premium Foods! We worked closely with Alberta, who created a beautiful, personalized menu with our food and drink selections. The owners stayed on site during the event and were very detailed oriented. Ben and the waiters were attentive and responsive to our requests and even helped move tables so friends could sit together. Alberta played soft background music from the bride's culture to add to the atmosphere. The overall vibe of mint is unique and you feel like you're at a shop/restaurant in the Mediterranean with it displays of gourmet cheeses, olives and bottles of wine.The food at Mint is absolutely delicious, plentiful, perfectly cooked and attractively presented! For our customized brunch, we had four courses: For appetizers, we had family style cheese & charcuterie boards and calamari, followed by individual choice of specialty salad, individual main course and family style desserts (Baklava, Pannacotta, Bread Pudding, Creme Brulee). Everyone raved about the food, from the outstanding cheeses to the Wagyu meat burgers, sandwiches, salads, Moroccan chicken, risotto, etc. We highly recommend Mint for a meal or a place to host a special event!“

“Wowsa what a meal!!! Friends had posted beautiful pics of their meals from their tasting menu. It's cute: half the restaurant is a traditional dining room and the other is take out fish and chips. You can have a delicious meal a la carte or the tasting menu. I could not convince my husband to do the 15 course chef's tasting menu. But we did do the tasting menu with wine. Every dish was light, fresh, and perfectly seasoned. We enjoyed the wine pairings which were different (portuguese and spanish wines rounded out some American and South African wines). I am excited to come back to try more of their traditional menu and their namesake (fish and chips). Well worth a visit.“

“There was some construction right outside today (not the restaurant's fault obviously) but the staff was very nice and made sure we sat in a place that was further away from the noise :) The food was really good! And the wait time on the food was not that bad. Would definitely recommend and come back again!“

“This review is about Cafeteria at Stone Barns: Lunch Tray. They have one daily menu featuring their produce from the farm. Lunch tray is consist of small plates priced around $50, which sounds a bit pricey for the portions, but I assume the ingredients are fresh and high quality. When I went there, the lunch menu was some pickles, cured meat, taco and bread - everything was sour - even the dessert looking cake was sour. Balance of the meal was a bit disappointing, so got a small apple for $2, which was soggy and bruised inside, but I liked their coffee.It is a beautiful place for a getaway from the city - an hour drive from Manhattan. The lunch tray could be hit or miss since they only offer one set menu, which you don’t know until you get there, but they have pretty outdoor tables surrounded by nice garden. I would come back for another try later.“

“Joey's Sports Bar & Grill is the best bar in the New York area. Neighbors, friends, and the community get together, laugh, enjoy themselves, and listen to live music in this warm friendly atmosphere that feels like home. Food is great, drinks are great, and the service is great. Tuesday, Thursday night jams with bands and Fridays, Saturdays bands play. Joey’s has got it going on.“

“Amazing service by the staff at Sweet Grass Grill. I was able to visit for lunch and pictured the blood orange margarita, mushroom cheesesteak and chicken sandwich with the kale Caesar. Their beet ketchup was truly amazing. Everything was delicious. The service was super attentive even with a busy lunch rush during the week. Reservations are recommended. Stop by at Sweet Grass for a quick meal and leave feeling satisfied. Looking forward to stopping by again“

“dependable, as always. there's always something that you really want to eat. good draft beers. an edible veggie burger. and my own (beef) burger prepared rare--which is hard to get these days. the service has always been exceptional. not the only reason to go there, but a good one.“

“The food was very good, the service is ok, but the staff clearly wanted us to leave so hovered over the table towards the end of the meal. Not exactly what we were looking for. The decor leaves something to be desired - it is tired and the room is a bit musty. Could use a real refresh asap.“

“The staff is very accommodating for my grandmother who is 99 and hard of hearing. They let me pick the table that would be best suit us. Our waiter John was friendly professional, and very patient. We enjoy all that Lexington Cafe has to offer.“

“Great experience at Kee Oyster House. I booked a reservation for 11 people for the same night and had to change the time and number which they easily accommodated. We had a table in the front and ordered oysters, tuna tartare, and scallops to begin with. They have a great list of cocktails and everyone enjoyed the gin and tequila specials. They also have a nice wine list both by the glass and by the bottle. I ordered the branzino and we ordered family style sides of potatoes, creamed spinach and broccoli - believe it or not the broccoli was a standout! Service was great, they kept water glasses filled and brought bread to the table. At the end of the meal we waited a bit for the check but otherwise we had an outstanding experience with service and food. Ambience is also great, with industrial lighting and chic but accessible decor. It was a bit loud but we were a big party so that probably contributed. Highly recommend!“

“Food was excellent, loved the Rigatoni with a nice Red vino. The potatoes and fries we had were great. Service was super professional and quick. Really pleasant ambience and setting. We don't go too often because it's $$$ but we willingly certainly be back soon!“

“Food was great! Service was greatI had the lobster roll with Broccoli as a side, it came with coleslaw as well (I don't even really eat slaw but this was pretty good).Lobster roll was loaded and flavorful. Broccoli was good as well, a tad bit salty.I also ordered a dessert to go because I was so full. I got the creme brulee which was great as well.He also gave me a little Berries and cream dessert since it was my birthday❤️Restaurant was a tad bit cold“

“Black Cat Cafe was awesome! Came in just as they were opening on a Sunday morning with my 2 year old. Service was great, and the person working was very accommodating of the young kid. Highly recommend getting breakfast here and then checking out the framers market just up the hill. Parent pro-tip, the Ivington location for the farmers market is right next to a playground.Kid-friendliness: I'm definitely calling this one kid friendly. They even had some toys on hand. Also, other patrons were not put off by the presence of a young kid.“

“Making a delivery for Uber which is funny I came to this place for the first time. Looking around I knew that this was a place I wanted to try. So I went back and how amazing is the food. A healthy option for good. I came here twice already and did the hamburger the first time and it was so good. The staff is friendly and always have a smile to help seat and serve you. The food came on time and hot. The second time I went then I had the chicken sliders and man oh man so flavorful. This is a place I would recommend and also take my family to for any function.“

“My cousin comes here three days a week and every time we plan lunch this is one of the few places he will eat. I have come here with him on four different occasions and every time I leave, I think to myself why don’t I come here more often. I had the special today. Fish and chips. Absolutely delicious big large piece of fish fried well batter flavorful french fries absolutely delicious and it comes with these really good spicy pickles. The place is really clean and the white stuff is great. I have no complaints but it is one of those places that when you leave you feel good after you ate. It’s worth it.“

“great local place with delicious food. We met old friends we hadn't seen in a while and were able to sit and catch up without being harassed, but we were well attended to. The perfect kind of service. Dinner was yummy. This place is a keeper!“

“had 2 kids (ages 5-11) tell me it was their favorite restaurant. The adults loved it too. Solid place. A noticable Greek influence on the menu, and notnin a bad way! Orzo as a side of the main courses (especially the shrimp bowls) is a GREAT addition. Quality, quality place to bring ypur kids on a Friday/Sat night out.“

“Local spot in the village that i live in...and its just...awesome...whether you come for a quick drink, to a small bite or dinner for 6, you can not go wrong at the Boathouse...owner Lisa always tending bar to make sure that her customers feel at home and have a drink in hand...waiter/waitress Ryan, Philip and Michelle are great and their attention to detail stands out...from apps to entrees, you can not go wrong here...from Spiedini( ask for buffalo and garlic ), to their Wings, Arancini and Spicy Crab Fries are excellent...entrees such as the Rib Eye Steak, Very Angry Val, Lobster Roll, Short Rib Sheperds Pie, Lobster Mac & Cheese, etc are great...come summer time, you wont find a better place around...there is the " boat bar " right next to the water, and you will find live music on the weekends. Reasonably price, and you will be coming back there for sureParking: Onsite Free Parking( right next to the Hudson River )...what a VIEW“

“I'm in Westchester (suburban NYC) and we have a few bareburger locations, each a little different from the others. All good vibes, always good food. Staff is always willing to work with you to get your the burger (or other) that you want. Mt Kisco location does trivia nights, wish they all did.“

“We ate here on a whim a few days ago and really enjoyed our experience. The staff was really friendly and accommodating, the food was great and we enjoyed good drinks. It's pretty loud so if you're trying to have intimate conversations, I'd go elsewhere.“

“This was our second time here, drawn by warm weather and a restaurant week deal, which was a good value given the regular menu prices (on the high side). The restaurant is perched right on the Hudson but outdoor seating is first-come, first served. We wound up inside. Friendly service, solid food, including brick chicken, calamari and Atlantic salmon. It's also a great place to enjoy brunch on a sunny day. Just get their early if you want to eat al fresco.“

“Everything was great, but I would recommend the place knock down the smell of their floor cleaner. I found it overwhelming throughout the place. Some people like me are sensitive to chemical scents and it conflicts with the aroma of the food and drink.“

“Delightful example of where “the locals” eat, and highly recommend to tourists like me who really enjoy getting acquainted with communities that aren’t “touristy”. Marvelous service from Sonia and really really great food at great prices!“

“Lively spot with plenty of well spaced tables & booths. I really love the look of this spot...rich velvet curtain, low, cozy lights, great for a relaxing evening. The Brussel sprouts were unbelievably good as was the medditeran salad. Healthy choices done well! Service great, attentive and friendly.“

“Santiago was a great server, he knew the menu very well, he recommended almost everything on the menu to the point we let him chose our meals and it was all wonderful. Everything was great, the service, the food came out in a timely matter, there was water ready at the table to quench our thirst. For 4 people spent $200, that's with an appetizer 2 entrees. We had a kid who had fries and someone who had a soup special and buffalo wings (they ate before getting there). No cocktails, 4 sodas; that's gratuity included. Overall, the ambiance is great, right by the train, across from the waters, plenty of parking.“

“What a fun place, we visited this bar/restaurant on Thursday night for music bingo. All ages welcome, they have a happy hour drink and food menu until 730 I think. Food and drinks were good, drinks pretty strong and consistent. If you’re looking to unwind on a Thursday night, this is the place. They do offer a full lunch and dinner menu and they also have other fun activities on different days of the week. Go have fun.“

“we loved Vela Kitchen ! The crispy calamari was excellent! We all agreed best fried calamari around. my husband and i had the pan seared branzino with cauliflower rice was cooked to perfection. A friend had the lobster paella with saffron risotto she said was delicious. Definitely now one of our favorite restaurants. So good we didn't have leftovers to bring home we ate everything“

“Alex, Kenny & Anfernee are the best. Always a smile, good humor and will do anything to make it the best experience.You can’t go wrong with the Clam chowder.Crab pasta - every bite it’s like tasting it the 1st time.Parking: Free ticket voucher for parking when dining.Kid-friendliness: They do an excellent job catering to kids.“

“This goes out to Tiffany - thank you for making our date night so special! I called ahead to ask if I could order two cocktails to have waiting for my partner and I (to celebrate a big occasion). Tiffany had two great drinks at the table when we arrived - an original mocktail for me, and one of the signature cocktails for him. It was such a nice touch and made the night even better, we really had a great time. The rest of the night was great - good food, great service, nice ambiance. We will be back soon!“

“I am fairly new to White Plains and there are a number of spots on Mamaroneck that I have wanted to try. This was the first of my adventures and I was not disappointed. Not in the least. A friend from the city came to visit and she felt the same.“

“Haven't been back to this place for a long time and things are nowhere near as bad as it used to be. Actually it was way better than expected. Place was packed on a Sunday at 1pm and we were a party of 10. They accommodated us within 15 min. They also got a party of 7 sat while we were waiting so they are great with that aspect. We sat and got all kinds of drinks including sodas for the kids that was almost never empty. Refilled my oldest Son every time he was empty. Took our large order and got every aspect correct which is great in this day and age of hard to find good staff. Food was all around good. Burgers were large, pancakes huge, they put a ton of scrambled eggs on the plate requiring them. My sister and bro-in laws salads were plentiful and they loved them. My GF got the crab and lobster cake Benedict which she loved. I got the breakfast burrito which was good and the homemade hash was tastey too. The 3 breads the put on the table to start were amazing and the desserts were real good too. Forgot to take pics of the food as it was my mother's bday so I was occupied.One negative is they have a large lot but it was full so 2 of the 4 cars we came in had to park in the street.Parking: Big lot but at busy times will easily fill up.“

“Went there to see a local band tonight and the place was Packed!! Burgers were flying out of the kitchen. Service was a well oiled machine. I can’t comment on taste because I didn’t actually eat the food, but by the looks of it, you need to come to this place if you like burgers.“

“Went here for the first time and it was amazing. Me and my mother had the Grilled Peaches and Ricotta toast and Korean Chicken Wings as starters, the Blackened Salmon and Hamburger sliders for mains, and a Cappuccino and Nutella Latte for dessert. Everything was amazing and the waiters are very kind, attentive, and prompt. I absolutely will be back here with the rest of my family very soon!“

“Lovely bistro with warm lighting and ambiance. We had the ribolia soup, excellent/fav, Octopus app, excellent/ recommend, and salad, For dessert, we had cappuccino, just ok, and pecan tart, ok. We have been to this restaurant before and will continue to come here. Great menu with other food We would love to try. ?“

“I love this restaurant, first time back in years and I have to say everything was great. The menu is extensive, but not too big and the prices are fair and reasonable. The food is very good and the staff here are Soo pleasant. Will be back for future date nights for sure. Thank you for a great meal.“

“Amazing drinks (mimosas).... and food was great...Enjoyed my visit. I will return...I appreciate going during a less busy time. I can imagine it gets busy....Steak was perfectly cooked. I swaped for Truffle fries, next time I won't...I'll try it as it comes. It still was delicious...Also I don't know how the picture of the bar tender came out in both color and black white... I didn't do it on purpose but it's a cool picture..hope they don't mind me sharing that....“
