“How did I not know about this place until a month or so ago??? We went for dinner on my husband's birthday, and everything was so good. We (he) was hungry, so we had multiple appetizers, two entrees, and shared a dessert, and we had multiple cocktails. The space is dark and quite cozy, not large, and there's a really nice, big bar. We sat at a table for two, kind of near the entrance, and the only complaint I would mention is that it was a little bit cold in the restaurant initially, and there are better places to sit than near the front door, so you could request a better table if you make a reservation. Other than that, the service was wonderful, the cocktails were really interesting, and I ended up drinking a couple of cocktails with liquors in them that I normally would not choose, but they were delicious. This restaurant is a little different in that they put more emphasis on seafood and caviar in some of their dishes - if you look at their menu, you will see. There were plenty of non-meat appetizers, and the main dishes were a little more limited, but I think there would be something for everyone (we stick to seafood and vegetables). I would definitely eat here again - beautiful ambiance, wonderful service, terrific cocktails, and really good food!“

“Always a good time, whether for sports events or holidays or just a night out!“

“Unbelievable food. Best service in the world!“

“We have had breakfast and it was excellent!“

“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.“

“Located in the Stockade part of historic Kingston, this cheery restaurant has a great ambiance, with 2 large dining rooms and a full bar. On a cold and snowy winter Sunday, our group of 4 enjoyed cocktails and some snacks while touring the area.

The cocktails were awesome - we had 3 specialty margaritas (black and gold) and a Fig and Honey Martini, which was very sweet.

The appetizers were a hit or miss: wings were ok, the flatbread with prosciutto and fig wasn't to our liking but the thai shrimp were good, but I was surprised the dish only had 2 skewers of shrimp.

Overall a nice lunch. Very friendly service. On a Sunday, there weren't much choices for a meal in the area midday.“

“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.“

“Top shelf!!! We had a group of 17 for lunch. Everyone raved about the excellent food and the wonderful and friendly service. Our menu included London Broil, Salmon, Ceasars Salad with Chicken and Vegetable Quiche with side salad. We had a variety of servings. Everything was sooooo good! Best restaurant in Kingston. We couldn't have chosen a better place.“

“quick service, good food, friendly service persons“

“Amazing sandwiches, soup and wraps and awesome customer service! 10/10 would recommend!😊“

“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!“

“Nice, clean and very cozy ☺️“

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

“We stopped in today for an early dinner and are so happy we did! We started with the bone-in chicken wings — Crack BBQ & Cajun Honey — and let me tell you, that Crack Sauce is AMAZING 👏. I had the Biggie chicken sandwich, and the chicken was seasoned to perfection. Rosanna was such a pleasure to chat with during our meal — super friendly and full of great insights about the area. Can’t wait to come back!“

“we just left Abbys after having western omelets for breakfast. They were delicious!!“

“The food was very good! I have dietary restrictions to celiac disease and they were very accommodating I highly recommend this restaurant!“

“the corned beef hash and eggs are really good so is the right toast the ham dinners that are really good and also the roast beef dinners also good I recommend this place to anybody“

“Ordered a butterfly shaped cake for our little girls first birthday and we were blown away with how perfect it came out (and how delicious)!“

“Wonderful lunch on the outdoor patio at Foster’s coach house. Hosts were welcoming and provided great service accommodating our large party - friendly and helpful - setting a stage for a relaxed and fun late afternoon birthday meal. Everyone in our group of 18 enjoyed Fosters - cold drinks, good service, and excellent food - from the Thanksgiving sandwich, French dip, to the cranberry walnut salad! The team at Fosters also sourced a delicious carrot cake 🎂!“

“Love love love this place. Quirky, fun, amazing service, and creative food! Genuinely, they deserve a Michelin star“

“Service was excellent as was the food!“

“When we go back to our old stomping ground, we go to this location for the best Michigan style hotdogs around.
We have been coming here for a long time, always good every time. Every thing is really good.
Breakfast served all day.
Cash only, ATM on premises.“

“The food is awesome! Every ingredient is local! Nice folks running it!“

“Love their food. Tonight I tried wings for the first time, barbecue they were wonderful Can't wait to have them again“

“Yes…historically charming“

“Had great wings and salad at the restaurant, along with amazing service.“

“This place was really cute, great food, and great for date night or dinner with friends. I love all the variety of vegetables on their menu and how each is prepared differently. We got the cabbage which was good, I loved the char on it but other than that, it was fine. The oysters were amazing and their squid salad was divine. The entree we got was the chicken which they are known for and it was very good, chicken was juicy and the sauce on the side was great. We also got a side of creamed kale and that was extraordinary, 10/10. Dessert was a Thai tea blondie and I was so excited for it but it was underwhelming.“

“Without question the best ribs I ever had.“

“The Historic Village Diner in Red Hook, NY is a unique piece of history that you can experience a great meal at. The diner is a 1927 Silk City model. At the time of its manufacture the diners came prefabricated with cups, glasses, and silverware. On the side of the diner as you walk in you will notice the diner’s old name, the “Halfway Diner” because of its location halfway between Albany and NYC. The diner has a ton of historic and nostalgic value.
The food here is great and the diner has a large dessert menu. It is possible to dine in or order take out. Portion sizes here are large. If you dine in you will love the ambience of this diner with its counter and booths. The service here is great! No place serves food and history better than this one.“

“drinks, appetizer, entrée, dessert. everything was very good. I want to come back and try more dishes!“

“Nice atmosphere, friendly service, good food“

“The most delicious bagels!! Local Ramp Cream cheese was the most decadent amazing thing ever!!! Will be back soon!!! Highly recommend!!!“

“I just had Mirabella’s cater my husband‘s 70th birthday. Let me tell you the food was so good and very good quality. Brandon did an awesome job price was very reasonable and everybody loved it. We had lots of leftovers so if you were going to have a party, I highly would recommend this place called Mirabella’s and asked for Brandon. He’s a great guy. He will take care of you. I am giving him 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Friends and I stopped here while we were walking in town during our trip to the Catskills last fall. Everything looked great and smelled delicious!

We each selected a few items to take with us as we were on our way back home. Everything stayed well during the drive and tasted amazing when I could dive into it.“

“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!“

“My husband and I go there all the time. Foods great along with great service. Highly recommend it👏👏“

“The Stone Pony catered multiple meals for my company offsite over the course of 2 days and the food was amazing! People could not stop raving about the food we had, even now that the event is over. They were very communicative, timely, and professional.“

“Great sandwich place and you get real bang for your buck with the quality of the sandwiches and the cost. We had the roast beef, Old Tradition and Gabagool and they were all delicious. Slightly off the beaten track in Saugerties but well worth the visit.“

“Delicious garlic knots, pizza, beer. Great staff, service. Our go to every time we’re in the area. Excellent!“

“Pete’s: my new favorite Rhinebeck diner. Breakfast all day and other yummys, served with love. I sat at the counter and instantly had many new friends. Food is fabulous, but the ambient love is what differentiates Pete’s from all the other great Rhinebeck spots. Stop in, you’ll see what I mean. ❤️“

“We had our wedding at rip van winkle on 10/26, and it was amazing!! Sara was absolutely wonderful with planning everything and making sure everything went perfect! The staff was fantastic and the food was absolutely incredible! Thank you all so much!“

“Usually offers good bread. But is very wishy washy on their "old bread sales" prices. If it's a day old it should be discounted - period. (I have worked for almost four years in a bakery) This is being aggregated by the fact that I was not notified of this pricing structure when I asked for day old bread (with the specific intend to get a discount for something that is not fresh and won't last me as long). Had I been informed about this, I would have just bought the same bread *fresh* - for the *same price*. I feel that the omission of this fact is even done purposely to mislead customers.“

“Rick and Marilyn LOVE this place! It also has LIVE MUSIC!!! Visit!“

“After hiking to Kaaterskill Falls, my lovely wife and I had lunch here as part of our Anniversary Weekend Trip. We were welcome immediately, and given a table at the window facing the river. The service is great. We started with Fried Calamari, and it was so good that we finished it in a few minutes. The batter is light, yet crispy and flavor of the squid pops out. My wife ordered the Prime Rib and Lobster Tail, and I ordered English Prime Rib. Both were so tender and juicy. The sauces, mash potatoes, and asparagus compliments everything so well! We later had the Chocolate Temptation, which was perfect with black coffee. We highly recommend this place whenever visiting Kingston.“

“Healthy, delicious, and incredibly affordable. It’s hard to find lunch in the area that’s both tasty and genuinely healthy for well under $15, but this place delivers every time. I always get it to go. The service is always super fast, too!“

“My hubby is from NY but I'm from the South. We stopped by to get lunch after family suggested it. OMG!!!! The best sub I've ever tasted. I got The Big and he got The Godfather. Can't wait to visit again. Not only was the food awesome but the staff were friendly and prices reasonable :)“
