    Attractive, cozy setting with gorgeous view of the Hudson. Very friendly staff. Bar seating—our favorite—had ample room for both a drink and dinner. Burgers were great—juicy double patties served with crisp fresh cut fries. And the bread pudding with vanilla ice cream was delicious and enough to share. Nice list of house cocktails and reasonable range of wines by the glass. This is likely to become a “regular” haunt!

    This restaurant is so unique! The atmosphere is by far the reason to come but you’re pleasantly surprised that the food and service is just as amazing. My husband and I went on the last day of their 2025 season and I’m honestly bummed I didn’t know about this place sooner so I could come more before they closed for the cold months. We will be returning when they open again in the spring! My husband had the half chicken which was cooked perfectly and was crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside from being made in their wood-fire oven. I had the margherita pizza which is one of my favorites and theirs was done very well. 5/5 stars!
