Best Historic Restaurants in Rosendale

Excellent food, service and ambience. The special was exceptional! Charming holiday decorations.

As always, we had a wonderful dining experience. From being greeted so warmly at the door..to being served by a wonderful waiter and assistant and then having an absolutely sumptuous meal we were absolutely delighted! We had the chicken mousse pate and the crab cake special for appetizers and the salmon and 1/2 duck la orange, a delicious cabernet and shared the chocolate mousse dessert...beyond yummy!!There wasn't a morsel of food left!!

Beautiful atmosphere, surroundings and furnishings in an old mansion. Service was great with very friendly staff. Recommend the onion soup, steak tartare and branzino.

We enjoyed the opertunity to have dinner at the Hoffman House. It is n old structure and I believe they made the most of the space available. The food was very good, really everything was very good.

We had a lovely lunch at the Thayer. The fried chicken was expertly seasoned and the best I've had. Crunchy where it should be and juicy and tender inside. The Cole slaw was just right. Great snap to the fries. The other dish was the Chicken Salad club. Hit every mark and totally enjoyed it. We also ordered the soup of the day and the only mishap was it was brought out not piping hot. A quick word to the waiter and the soup was retuned and the temperature was corrected. In fairness, most restaurants never serve piping hot soup, which they should. We had a view of the Hudson and the ambiance of the hotel and restaurant is old world elegance. The price was very reasonable for the quality and quantity of food. We will definitely go back. It would be a fabulous place to watch the autumn colors. Next time.
