Our server - same on both visits - was friendly and efficient, making recommendations as requested. And her recommended dishes were excellent to a one. Our cocktails were delightful and a great way to stay off our meal. The bread and butter or oil were a nice touch before we started our meal. The salads (Caesar and Mediterranean) each time were fresh, tasty, and plentiful. Our entrees - filet mignon bolognese over pasta, the salmon, and the pork chop - were well made and flavorful with perfect sides. Dessert (crème brûlée and peanut butter pie) was perfectly sweet and not overly heavy. Each was enough to share. We'll be back for another date night again soon!

More recently, a coworker of mine mentioned she had dined here. Hubs and I had just finished with a gender reveal party in Stony Point and decided to come here then afterwards head up home. Ship L. has a warm, woodsy charm with dark woods, a large bar area to the right as you enter Ship L and has a spacious dining area on the left with an old-school energy that feels just right for a long-standing rest'nt like this one. Service was great from everyone: friendly, attentive and welcoming all around. That said, awesome service and history can only carry a restaurant but so far. We were told their long-standing chef of 30+ yrs either resigned(?) or didn't want to work here(?) and based on what my coworker told me- that she noticed a difference in the cooking not too long ago when she came here. Sadly, it shows. Our escargots were extremely salty. My husband's pork chop was salty. His vegetables also salty. At that point, I held out hope that my Chilean sea bass might at least redeem the evening. No such luck. Salty again. Even the mushroom risotto- which actually had delicious flavor, was overpowered by too much salt. By then, after one appetizer and two entrées all salty, we figured dessert would at least save the night. Nope. I ordered profiteroles with chocolate gelato instead of vanilla and was truly looking forward to them. Except, the profiteroles were rock hard. The chocolate drizzle tasted like Hershey's syrup, making the dessert taste cheap for a restaurant of this type. My husband, who always goes for sorbet, ordered the mango flavor- but to me it tasted like an unripe mango blended with sugar just to make it palatable.. If you're from the Caribbean or know a true mango taste, you know exactly what I mean. And don't even get me started on the cocktails- they tasted more like juice than actual drinks. At the end of the night, we realized we weren't imagining things. A $245 dinner with weak cocktails, overly salty food and disappointing desserts was no balance for a restaurant with such a long-standing history. For that reason... we out.

Since my earlier review (02/27/2025) our Friday night dinner group has gone back to The Angry Chef…read morenumerous times and have yet to be disappointed. The food is outstanding and in ample portions, The Angry Chef is a family restaurant and the whole family is involved, and they are super friendly, witty, charming, and they work so hard to please everyone. Our waitress is almost always, Lola, one of the daughter's working along with her sisters and her mother, in addition to Dad the chef. We absolutely love Lola and she always remembers the drink orders of 8 and sometimes 9 people without fail. More important like her sisters, mother, and father, she is always pleasant, cheerful, and delightful. The whole family has a wonderful sense of humor, and we never fail to have a good time. I strongly regard The Angry Chef as the best family Italian restaurant in the Hudson Valley and I enthusiastically recommend it!

I know I got talking about the entree first because it was the highlight but we did off with the seafood tower. It was delicious and a perfect start to our meal.

What a Disappointment!!! The whole experience was a crying…read moreshame! Not only for us, and the other customers, but for the owners as well. Made a reservation for 7:30 PM. We received an email, that they would be doing a soft opening November 1st. We were really looking forward to a Spanish meal! When we arrived, the place was packed! Usually, a positive sign. Apparently, we weren't the only ones, that received the E-mail. We let the bartender know that we had a reservation, the answer was pretty much; see if you can find a seat. First off - they should change the name from Flores Tapas to Flores - burger and taco shack. Based on the "new" menu. It's very sad - because it's neither "fish nor fowl". Is it Mexican street food or a burger joint? It takes forever for the food to come out of a totally confused kitchen and even though there are numbers on the table, they don't know where to bring it. It's the fault of the "21st century"ordering system they are employing. IT is totally "Fakakta"!! Theoretically, the order goes from your phone to the kitchen, where they process it and prepare your food, then the runner brings it to your table. The reality is disappointingly different. You're better off, sitting at the bar; getting blitzed and watching TV. The fast food gets there sooner! You can do that at home and not have to worry about driving home drunk. Sadly, they spent a small fortune on theme glasses, seat back covers that look like Santa's hat, and specialty merchandise. See photos. I have a feeling, that a lot of the people that were there tonight. Sitting around at the tables, waiting for their food, that took over an hour to arrive won't be back! Especially a lot of the senior citizens or anyone over 30 years old that wondered what was going on? It was suggested; that as a Tapas restaurant they couldn't survive. Wappingers isn't ready for them. However, there are dozens of Mexican taco places within a few miles and burger joints to choose from. Let's hope they fair well.

We made a reservation for two but waited 10 minutes with no one greeting or seating us, so we eventually seated ourselves at the bar. It took another 20 minutes for the overburdened bartender to take our order. The food was underwhelming, and while the cocktails were tasty, they were far too small for the price. That said, the staff--though clearly short-staffed and overwhelmed--were friendly and genuinely doing their best. Unfortunately, the lack of adequate staffing and organization made the experience fall flat.

We've come for dinner when it opens and when it gets a little full (halfway) the noise is intolerable. I found myself screaming my words to the person across the table. We've sat upstairs, in the back and in the front and still the noise just doesn't work for us. And I really like this place and would go more often, so we try and come midweek where the noise because of a small crowd is easier to deal with.
