Best Restaurants for Special Occasions in Riverdale

The Eggs Benedict is the best I have ever had! This place is fantastic!

CL is an old gem. In fact, I can't even remember the first time I went, and recently, started going there for breakfast. Service is always great (was exceptionally great today) and food is never disappointing. It's a rare eatery in NYC that has survived and thrived. I saw today it was voted one of the best by Vogue but I did not need that confirmation. Please stay wonderful as you are.

Always so happy to be at Savini! Love our table next to the fireplace! Sherri always welcomes us with open arms! Everything from the calamari to the arugula salad to the rack of lambs was just exceptional! Stephanie is always so good to us! Best Irish Coffee for dessert:) Always the best 🩷

I had heard about Rails from numerous people who have always raved about it. So, I was very excited in anticipation. The restaurant is beautiful right alongside the Towaco Railroad Station. Plenty of help valet parking but a bit of a walk to get inside. The ambiance is nice with an extensive top notch wine list. But our waitress was not as knowledgeable about the menus that might have been a good opportunity for an upsell for our order. And it was kind of hard to get over that my guest’s lobster tail arrived raw. In sending it back when I asked the waitress about it she said oh! I didn’t talk to them, they’re very busy with it being the holiday. . . Not a very good first impression. Not even an apology. I would go back though. And I understand you can take a tour and go through the secret door to the bar in the cellar. The menu is a la carte which make it seem expensive, but the prices are actually quite reasonable.

Had a great overall experience at this occasion - even though the time of my reservation was during a slow period (weekday afternoon).
