    Celebrating my birthday during my last year in my 50s made for a very special evening. My beloved…read moremother-in-law treated us to a wonderful steakhouse in Yorktown, and the entire experience was memorable from start to finish. The interior is stunning, with large cathedral ceilings, white tablecloths, and an open yet cozy atmosphere that gives you the classic feel of a traditional steakhouse. One of my favorite touches was the mural of Federico da Montefeltro, the Duke of Urbino, displayed prominently on the back wall. To start, we shared the applewood-smoked bacon appetizer. It was incredibly thick, smoky, rich, and absolutely delicious -- the kind of indulgence where you can practically feel your arteries clogging, but it's completely worth it. My wife and mother-in-law both ordered the filet mignon, which was cooked perfectly. My son and I shared the bone-in steak, and it was so large we couldn't even finish it. The sides were simple and classic: creamy mashed potatoes and sautéed spinach, both done very well. For dessert, they brought out crème brûlée and chocolate mousse cake with a candle on top for my birthday. The staff gathered around to sing "Happy Birthday," which made the evening feel even more special and personal. A wonderful meal, a warm atmosphere, and a memorable celebration with family. I would definitely go back.

    I used to love going there for week nights happy hours and to see the smiling animated bartender…read moreArtan who always has a big smile and humor. Now it seems he disappears by 7Pm some week nights and a not so well versed bartender is there. It is sad that having a huge client base with whom the bartenders are well known there would be changes like that. He is truly the face of that bar and happy hour. Always customer service oriented.

    House of Stefas is what happens when someone builds the restaurant you didn't know you were looking…read morefor your whole life and puts it on a quiet street where you almost walk right past it. There are multiple rooms. Every single one of them is designed to make you feel like you've been on a guest list this whole time and nobody told you. A written description won't capture it. I'm trying right now and I'm failing. You just have to go. We sat at the bar. The bar looks like the bar in The Shining if the Overlook Hotel had been run by people who actually wanted you to enjoy yourself and not get murdered. The staff are proud of the place and you can feel it, that specific warmth of people who know they're working somewhere worth working. Service like that can't be trained. You either care or you don't. These people care. The food is spectacular. The drinks are better than the food. I'm going to let that sit there because the food is spectacular. I'm not here to tell anyone how to live their life, but bringing your kids to House of Stefas is like using a Lamborghini to pick up mulch. You can do it. It's a free country. But this is a place you take someone when you want them to fall in love with you. This is the restaurant equivalent of a third date where everything goes right. I saw families dining here with children who would be happy with chicken fingers. I don't understand it. House of Stefas is doing things to my palate that I didn't think were possible in the Hudson Valley. Five stars. I would give six but the system won't let me and frankly that kind of restraint is probably healthy.

    ORIGIN: After years of anticipation, the House of Stefas…read moreopened in early June 2025. "House" is in reference to the restaurant being located in a former home and being home-like, while Stefas refers to the family name of the two co-owners and brothers who had envisioned it -- John and Paul Stefanopoulos. LOCATION: The restaurant is located on Franklin Avenue. CONCEPT: The co-owners describe the restaurant cuisine as "freestyle Greek". It is a mix of family recipes and their international dining experiences. AMBIANCE: The interior of the building (previously Aurelia restaurant) was completely gutted and reimagined. The design evokes both a sense of surprise and recognition that the two brothers devoted much thought and effort into making the restaurant a special experience for guests. There are many different seating areas, each with comfortable upholstered seats. Together, the ambiance suggests a supper club -- which makes sense as that aligns with the brothers' experience and vision for this location. FOOD: The menu includes many traditional Greek mezze and plates, but also opportunity for culinary splurges and adventures through intriguing options called "Let the Gods Decide" and "Bounty for the Aristocracy". Can't miss the Portokalopita -- an orange-infused sheet cake topped with vanilla bean ice cream and draped in tahini. BEVERAGES: Creative cocktails include the Oracle and Versace 38. SERVICE: The co-owners pride themselves on their orientation towards hospitality and this is reflected in the service. Servers wear cream jackets, something I have yet to see in the region. The enthusiasm to please customers feels authentic.
