    Buttermilk chicken with Buffalo
    Heather H.

    As many times as I have been to Painter's, I was surprised I hadn't reviewed yet. They are under new management and back open for business! The menu is not overly complicated with great options. They also have specials on certain nights. The bar area has seating in the room, and there are separate quieter dining rooms and an amazing second bar and space. The second bar is open on weekends and for private events. The have great outside seating which is really nice in warm weather. Fabulous dog sculpture in the bar. I didnt want to sit on it till the sign said don't sit on it. :) It's definitely a local spot... and you always want to go where the locals go. I got the Buttermilk chicken flatbread with Buffalo sauce. The amount of cheese on it was phenomenal, and I didn't even have to ask for extra cheese! My friend and local got the beet salad. It looked to die for, and he was quite pleased. It was a little loud for him in the bar area, but I was able to tune it out. There were quite a few folks in there. The service was great and we were well taken care of. The Chritmas decorations were still up, and it was all beautiful. Great visit!

    The interior decoration of the front entrance, dining room and front tavern area is quite nice. We had a lunch reservation for 9 and when we showed up they said is it ok if we seat you in the back tavern area? We can push some tables together. That area is nothing in ambience to the cozy and warm dining room. In fact it was refrigerator cold with cold air blowing from vents above the tables they pushed together. Our 96 year old guest was miserable as were we. We asked to be seated in the dining room where it was warmer and they said if we waited for a party to leave we could or said " you can sit outside ". (It was grey and cold outside) what an insult especially having a reservation. We were on time and they should have had a table set aside for our party. None of our food items were to our liking at all. Too many issues to go over all in this review.

    Sweet Thai Chili Salmon

    Very underwhelming experience. While the host was super nice and charming, he was so chatty and asked where we were from and we discovered we were from similar areas in Queens. We chose to eat inside as we spent most of the day at Storm King in the heat, we sat at a cute table for 2 but directly under the blasting A/C but sucked it up because we were so hot most of the day. Anyway, our waitress was cute and did her best to recommend her "favorites" although we asked what was popular. The drinks came out I had a margarita and my cousin had a beer so nothing fancy so I would say they were both decent. The app which we chose the buttermilk calamari which was underwhelming, over cooked a bit chewier than we would have liked, the marinara was good but the chipotle mayo was just eh! I ordered the steak and frits lol I guess they meant Frites which was part of the special, the steak was cooked ok I guess and the fries were good not greasy. My cousin had the sweet Thai chili salmon which tasted like it was from the fridge and over cooked not good at all. It had some pickled cucumbers with dill on top that made no sense being there. The veggies tasted fresh but the "Jasmine" rice also tasted like it was microwaved rice with tons of butter. The meal was a complete fail after a long day and two very hungry customers came in based on decent reviews. We will not be back but I'm sure they have enough elderly locals to support the business.
