New American Restaurants near West Haverstraw, NY

“I just had my daughter’s Baptism party at the HWC and I would HIGHLY recommend!!! Everything was exceptional. The food was phenomenal and the service was amazing. Our guests are still talking about the food and the cake is definitely one of the best we have ever tried. The restaurant is beautiful but the staff and owners make you feel like family. They were so helpful throughout the process and made it such a pleasure to work with them. They really treat you like family. Thank you Chris, Monica and all the staff for making our baby girls day special. We will definelty be having a lot more future parties here. Anyone looking for a place to host a party, don’t think twice and book the HWC🩵🩵“

“The Yard House restaurant is a popular and well regarded American casual dining restaurant chain that's known for offering guests superbly made burgers, pizzas, salads and other delicious dishes. In July of 2025, I brought and treated my wife and myself for dinner at the Yard House, specifically the branch located at the Palisades Center at West Nyack, New York and we very much enjoyed our dining experience. The staff warmly greeted us upon arrival and quickly provided us with a very large and comfortable dining table. Our server, Destiny D. was kind, welcoming and unquestionably professional. She did a great job on taking our menu orders, addressing our inquiries and always checked to make sure that we were having a great time. The Yard House is truly fortunate to have Destiny D as a member of their team. In addition to the great service, both my wife and I were in awe of the restaurant's energetic and vivacious atmosphere. We were impressed with its modern and stylish decor, and its display of multiple large television screens which feature live sports events and popular music programming. Guests also have access to a lively sports bar which features a vast collection of beers and cocktails. Last but certainly not least, my wife and I absolutely enjoyed our meal!!! We found our guacamole and chips appetizer tasty and delightful!!! I ordered and loved my burger based entree while my wife ordered and loved her whiskey glazed salmon entree. We found our meals to be perfectly cooked, superbly seasoned and highly delicious!!! All in all, we very much enjoyed our dining experience at the Yard House, and highly recommend for everyone to visit and dine at this great restaurant!!!“

“Hailey Is one of the hard working person I’ve ever met. From warm greeting working as a host/ bartender/ waitress and buzzing the table / cashier. She is the definition of multitasking on the next level. And on top of that she continues to be motivated with positive attitude and composed. If I am the owner of this BareBurger I would be use Hailey as a model to my future employees. I would like to encourage the owner to hire more staff to serve more customers and potentially make more money. Plus Hailey should get a raise. The food is mediocre however because of ambience and superb service and hospitality and positive energy of Hailey it makes the experience something to remember. And Post“

“We had a great experience at this restaurant. I made a reservation and they followed my request exactly. I got a really nice seat and it was a very quiet environment. I had a great view of the Tappan seabridge. The food was very good and the service was very attentive and timely. The drinks were really good too .“

“Fantastic local spot, gets quite busy during peak lunch and dinner/weekends. Nice salads, burgers and wings. Lots of interesting patty choices (elk, bison, etc). Also, one of the best (most diverse, interesting) rotating domestic crafr tap lists in the county. They're always playing great rock, blues & funk.“

“Taco Thursday’s! Who doesn’t like a taco? Food is very fresh and best Mexican food around. Margaritas are made fresh with squeezed limes not a mix. One of my favorite places for Sunday breakfast! Everyone is very friendly and welcoming.“

“Grass Roots Kitchen is such a gem! The food is absolutely delicious, the space is clean and inviting, and the prices are very reasonable a rare combo these days. I loved that there were options for everyone, whether you're craving something hearty or something lighter. The Buffalo Cauliflower bites were a standout perfectly crunchy and packed with flavor. I’ll definitely be back to explore more of the menu. Highly recommend!“

“The brunch and the twin waitresses where amazing. I can’t wait to come back“

“The Tapp is the quintessential local bar. The staff are very friendly, the burgers are phenomenal (as is everything else on the menu), and the prices are more than reasonable. If you find yourself in Tarrytown for shopping or seeing a show at The Music Hall, make a stop at The Tapp a part of the experience. Better still, make the trip just to visit The Tapp alone. It really is a great place to hang out with friends, catch a singer, play Tuesday Night Trivia, or have a terrific meal.“

“My husband and I got to the restaurant before the huge crowd arrived on Saturday. The bartender was fabulous but was making drinks for the entire restaurant which you could tell she was overwhelmed, understandably so. They should have had at least 3 bartenders on with the amount of business they had. By the time we were finished with our meal, which was delicious, the place was a total zoo with the volume of business. I think a lot of the bad reviews come from the staff being completely overwhelmed by the amount of people showing up. If they had double the staff it wouldn't be so bad.“

“love this place! food is great! ambiance very hip!“

“Everything is just amazing“

“Tarry Tavern for dinner: Mom had Seared maine sea scallops with local corn and leek risotto and I got the roasted Hudson valley duck breast with pecan cranberry wild rice and sunchoke purée. Unreal. Mom cleaned her plate at a restaurant for the first time in ages and mine was to die for. We shared the pumpkin pecan bread pudding for dessert. Outstanding experience with excellent, friendly service“

“We had a lovely time at the Farm restaurant in Nyack! The food was absolutely delicious, and the waiters were kind and welcoming. The atmosphere had a great vibe—nice music, live dancers, and really friendly people all around.

The only downside was the wait—we waited a while to be seated and the food took a bit longer than expected. But once everything arrived, it was definitely worth it. Overall, a warm, fun spot with great energy.“

“My favorite outdoor bar in the area! Fun, laid back vibe! Great drinks! Great food! Amazing and the most hospitable staff and manager! Very family and very pet friendly! They bring water for the pups and everything! 10/10 recommend! I miss this place all winter!“
