Price: Expensive
• Contemporary French / American • Irvington
Booked 39 times today
Nestled on the waterfront in Irvington, New York, Red Hat on the River is an American modern bistro serving satisfied diners since 2003. There's hardly a seat in the house that does not offer a spectacular view of the Hudson river. Banquettes and a pewter bar accent the space while the walls of this 100-year old renovated factory building are adorned with WPA-era art evoking a feeling of a turn of the century Parisian bistro. Evolving from a humble bistro on main street to a bustling restaurant on the river with a rooftop bar, Red Hat's commitment to providing the very best experience for their guests has always remained the same. Try the classic menu standards of steak frites, moules frites, country terrine, and the Red Hat burger. Seasonal salads, sandwiches, and seafood entrees round out the menu. The bar offerings of creative craft cocktails, local draft beer, and old world style wines complete the experience. Private events range from corporate dinners to weddings.

    My mom and I enjoyed a wonderful holiday lunch, which has become an annual tradition for us. Our meal was prepared to perfection, and the service we received was outstanding. Our servers were attentive and friendly, and we were made to feel welcomed. The restaurant was decorated tastefully for the holidays, which added a special touch. Everything we ordered- salads, penne with vodka sauce, and filet of sole- was prepared and presented with great care and attention to detail. The strawberry mojitos were excellent, as well. We greatly appreciate how well the staff worked together to provide such a memorable dining experience for us.
