Overall a very enjoyable experience. I had booked reservations for my bf birthday here…read more They never recognized the birthday on the reservation but he's not much for attention like that so I'll let it slide. Waitress was very nice and attentive without being annoying. The bread was warm and soft and the whipped butter was to die for. The Filet Crostini was so so good but we will the crostini was crispier as it got a little soggy from the juices. We really enjoyed our meals! The drinks were just okay. The Blueberry Smash was disappointing. Maybe add some missed blueberries if you're calling it a blueberry smash? The decor has a modern rustic vibe and we were sat in the upstairs. We'll definitely be back in the future as there was some much on the menu we wanted to try!

Calvin behind the bar was fantastic and made an incredible fresh-squeezed blood orange margarita. The food really stood out. The brie with blueberry sauce was a perfect sweet-savory combo, and the wings were packed with flavor. My burger (loaded with cheddar, egg, and bacon) was massive and cooked just right. Bun also made in house. The homemade pickles had a nice kick, and the haystack onion rings were super crispy. We ended with tiramisu and blueberry cheesecake--both delicious and made in house. Love that everything is farm-to-table. Definitely a spot worth coming back to.

If your in the Catskills and are looking for a place to eat this is it. This is the 2nd time I…read morehave been here and I Love this restaurant. All of the staff here are really nice & friendly. We started with Drinks. I had the Martini Special for the 4th of July and my husband had a Apple Spritzer made with Champagne. We went out to dinner today for my birthday. We started with the crispy brussel sprouts appetizer. It is sooo good. We had the Pan Seared Chicken which came with Fresh sautéed Green Beans and Polenta. The polenta was served in a square. I liked it that way and it made it easy to dunk in the Mushroom Gravy that came with the Chicken. My Mom had the Pan Seated Chicken too but they accommodated her by making a separate gravy minus the butter and hers was served with Salad & French Fries. We also had the Steak Tacos and a Watermelon Salad which was also delicious. We ended with dessert which was a Rubard Lemon tart and Black Raspberry Ice Cream wth whipped cream and a cherry. We totally enjoyed ourselves. My Moms have been coming to this restaurant for years. They also have a outdoor area behind the main restaurant called The Hill whete they have live music. The Restaurant is very clean, there is stonework throught out. It has a very warm relaxing vibe to it. As walk through the doors you are Always Welcomed with a Smile. Thank you for a very enjoyable dinner

Food was decent but the prices are wild. We are visiting July 3rd and it is incredibly hot in the…read morerestaurant. It has to be like 70-80 degrees in here. We could barely eat the food it was so hot... there was also no air flow and everyone at our table could barely breathe it felt like, hence why it was hard to enjoy anything. I get that there is a heatwave, but we called around to many restaurants who closed down due to the heat so we felt like this was a safe bet. Took around 45 mins to get the food as well. Staff was sweet, but we lost our waitress halfway through which was aggravating. Our food came out and we asked for more drinks (soft drinks) and condiments and she never came back until we hunted her down for the check. Don't think we will be coming back.

We have wanted to try The Grange for ages but weren't able to get a reservation. Well, tonight we…read moredecided to just walk in and see if we could get a table and happily we were able to! All I can say is Wow!!! Everything we had was incredible! Saturdays are pri-fixe only (other nights may be too) and the menu isn't huge but it was all amazing. You basically pick either a hot or cold starter or appetizer (some of the options are salads). Then you also pick an entree or main. Before they bring out your appetizer, they bring out a complimentary small starter - today it was a small radish salad and while I like radishes, my husband isn't normally a fan. Well, these may have changed his mind - and I think I LOVE radishes now!! It was incredible. For my appetizer, I chose the "famous Grange" egg rolls - and they are famous for a reason! They were easily the best egg rolls I've ever had. My husband had the Caesar salad and it was also delicious. We shared both easily - and had an egg roll to bring home for our son, too! For entrees we both selected the hanger steak - also incredible. Delicious and tender and both cooked perfectly - his rare and mine medium. Perfection. There were four dessert choices and each sounded fantastic as well - we decided on an apple crumb with homemade vanilla ice cream (me) and a flourless chocolate cake with the same incredible ice cream - and fresh made whipped cream! To wrap it all up, they brought us each 3 small bite sized treats (I will post a picture). They were also amazing...I realize I've used "amazing" and "incredible" multiple times already...I will need to use other adjectives when we go back but suffice it to say that we enjoyed everything we had. GREAT place! Oh! And really nice service too. This is a special place...not fancy but really great

Any old-timers out there remember when this was The Nutley Pub? (As one Yelper wrote, "Not the…read moreclassiest bar but..." - which perfectly summed up the last place.) Now going strong for well over a decade (?!) - Cowan's is classy and cool and leans into its strengths. Easily the hippest and most-happening spot in Nutley (and the surrounding towns) for the 'mature crowd' that's probably more interested in mash and hops and wort than getting hammered and making bad decisions at last call. The (ever rotating) beers on tap are stellar. The selection of bottles (of the harder stuff) on the picturesque back bar are eye-catching (even if I never heard of half of them). (After a few visits I still haven't tried the food. One of these days I'll get around to that, I promise.) Recommended, for sure.

The French onion dumplings were actually the best thing I had... crispy on the outside, cheesy, and full of flavor. Everything else missed the mark. The fish tacos were huge but the swordfish was under-seasoned, the mushroom soup had an overpowering acidic note, and while my date liked his rigatoni bolognese, I wasn't impressed by much else. It's on the pricier side, and it was completely empty when we were there, which made the vibe feel a little flat. I might come back just for those dumplings and a drink, but I wouldn't rush for a full dinner here.

She went above and beyond to accommodate a beef/pork allergy. I know this will sound crazy but I ordered the turkey burger and it was amazing. It was so tasty I swore it was beef, it was clearly homemade. The kids ordered pasta and loved it, was only $6 for a decent portion. The place is casual and has a good variety of food.

Curious about the other dishes as well. If you're in the area for Legoland or other adventures, I recommend checking them out as it's a short drive away!

Had a nice late lunch here on our recent trip. (Note that they are often not open at dinner time.)…read morewe were told that the food and service were good and that they had a few unusual local ingredients incorporated into their menu. For this reason, I decided to go with an Arnold Bennet skillet that included smoked trout. If you at all like the thought of lox and eggs, then you definitely need to try this one. It also had Parmesan, chives, and crème fraiche mixed in. The taste of this combination on a piece of toast was delicious! And something I would happily enjoy again and at reasonable prices. Plus, it was enough food that I finished it for breakfast the next morning. The seating area looks and feels like a typical NY diner. Our waitress was quick and efficient and the coffee was good and fresh. Especially with the limited number of dining locations in the Catskills area, Phoenicia diner is definitely worth a stop.

I believe that it is always appropriate to express both the good and the bad, and so my review…read moreoffers a little of both. We had just finished our 8 mile excursion at Rail Explorers last Friday and could not wait to get a bite to eat. We worked up quite an appetite, but did not mind that there was a line out the door. It would be worth it. We were told 20 minutes and so proceeded to wait patiently, just like everyone else. 20 minutes came and went and I was starting to feel my blood sugar plummet. We decided to wait in the bar area where I thought I could at least get started with one of their specialized breakfast drinks, but no one working behind the bar even asked if I wanted anything. I was ready to pay and tip appropriately, but it was like I wasn't even there. They were busy, so I chalked it up to that and waited until we were seated to order something to drink. We were seated at 40 minutes of waiting. Not a problem for me because I knew they were busy. We had agreed to a counter spot, but after waiting beyond the 20 minutes we were told, it would have been nice to have a two person booth. Our server, Kate, was very friendly and took our drink orders immediately. As our drinks arrived, we were joined to our right at the counter by a couple that had been on our excursion. There was another couple to our left, that were into their meals already and enjoying their food. We ordered our food and enjoyed the bustle of the diner. There were so many delights on the menu, but I was like...I just worked my butt off, I'm going to try something decadent and new. I ordered the jalepeno popper hash-browns. A little out of my comfort zone, but I knew they would be good. Within a few minutes our fellow excursion couple received their food. No big deal, right? Sometimes that happens. We waited...and waited. Coffee was refilled and Kate came over to ask if we wanted more juice. I'm thinking, yes! The food should be coming out soon. I watched the kitchen counter like a hawk...my stomach was now growling. The people to our left had left and a new couple arrived, the people from our excursion were finishing up their meal. Yes, that's right, the people that arrived after us were finishing up and we had still not been served. Kate, as sweet as she was, did not come back to reassure us that the food was coming, or notify us of any issues with the preparation of our food. We didn't order anything that would need 40 minutes to cook, so it was odd. Our excursion people left, the new people ordered and we were finally presented with our food. Kate did offer a "sorry about the wait". I smiled as I was just happy to finally have food presented. The people to our left received their food immediately after ours came, so the kitchen was working efficiently for everyone around us. My food was very good. It was an odd choice for me, but the jalepeno popper was decadent and Just what I needed after being there for about an hour and a half total. My fiancé's food....not so much, but I'm sure you will hear from him. All I have to say about his food is that he never complains....ever, but this time, I could practically see the steam coming out of his ears, as it was most certainly not coming off of his plate. He ordered a griddle meal, and oddly enough, it came out cold, lackluster and after the wait we had, it pretty much was the straw that broke the camel's back. I'm thinking that something happened with my meal which caused his meal to have to sit under the lights for 30 minutes....regardless, we should not have been served well after the people who sat down beside us were done and on their way out the door and a griddle meal should be so hot that you have to be careful not to burn yourself. Am I guilty of not expressing how I felt that day and instead choosing to write this review. Yes. But we were annoyed and looking at a 2 hour plus drive into the city and mainly just wanted to get out of there. Saving grace- sweet and friendly Kate and your adorable logo. I was totally going to buy some merch before the experience took my desire for a cute sweatshirt, bucket hat and cookbook to go flying right out the window. No complaints about the price. I too believe in supporting local and paying employees what they deserve.

There is outdoor and indoor dining but since it was blazing hot out I opted to stay inside in the cool AC. Came for brunch on a Sunday so had to try their sangria. It was really refreshing and perfect for a warm day. For entrees, we ordered the short rib hash, chicken and waffles, and the steak and eggs. I had a little of each, but my favorite was the short rib hash. Great flavor and the sauce was fantastic. The steak had a perfect cook on it, and the fried chicken was crispy and flavorful as well. The server was friendly and extremely attentive. He recommended a good dessert which we ended up splitting. When in doubt go with the chocolate brownie Esther vanilla ice cream !

We didn't have a reservation, but they were still able to seat us in the dining room as long as we could wrap up before 1:30, which we appreciated. I wasn't super hungry so we shared the crispy cauliflower and lamb ribs from the appetizer menu. The crispy cauliflower was excellent -- hot, actually crispy, and not drowning in sauce which I really appreciated. The lamb ribs came over labneh (a yogurt base) and the first plate arrived with the lamb cold. I asked our waitress if that was intentional and she said only the labneh should be cold. They immediately replaced it with a fresh order and handled it really well, which I appreciated. Great service recovery and overall a really enjoyable brunch spot with a lively atmosphere.
