[[HIGHLIGHT]]Give it a go- it's a cute place w a really friendly staff.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]I was there mid afternoon and it wasn't busy at all.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] It's got a nautical feel- no surprise. The menu is pretty varied and I wasn't sure what to pick. I was steered towards the burger. It was told it was not to be missed. It was good. Solid choice. I was encouraged to try helge dessert. I got the apple cheesecake. It was mid. read more

We never got to eat. It was 5:30 on a recent Saturday evening. We walked in and the hostess moved very fast towards us and asked if we had a reservation. We had just come into town for the first time and it was off-season and it was before 6pm, so we didn't think it would be that difficult to get a table for 2. We were obviously wrong, but the nasty snootiness was and is always uncalled for. We wound up having a very nice meal at The Cornell. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]We enjoyed our meal even if only outdoor tables available.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Must make a booking Enjoyed their scallops, tuna app, steak, lobster ravioli and salad. Huge portions! Great flavors read more

We came here after a Hudson River cruise for a late lunch, and ended up sharing a salmon burger (really, a fillet rather than a patty) with salad. The fillet was a good size for the price and definitely enough to eat without ordering anything else- credit to our server who was confident of that and didn't push us to order anything else. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Lovely ambiance eating outdoors steps from the water.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Being that we were about 5ish minutes away returning a U-Haul truck we'd reserved in White Plns, coming to Ship To S. on Strand St in Kingston, was a no-brainer. Plus, it was also highly recommended by one of the staff over at Woodstock Spa. Ship To S. has the feel of an old-school steakhouse+seafood restaurant that may not be old- but eating here, felt like we stepped back in time. The woods (but not just any 'wood') that filled this space and on the floor, that large bar that looks comfy and oh...the beautiful dim lighting. It's like a rabbit warren inside, with some tables squeezed into little nooks and crannies. All the couples looked like they're having affairs. Plus, this passed my 'let's get stuck in here during a rain or snowstorm' test. Our Caesar Salad and Tomato+Saffron Seafood soup starters were tasty and abundant. I rarely go for an Old-Fashioned cocktail, but their "Ho Ho Holiday" version, had a cranberry reduction that was oh so heavenly. Hubs had a Hot Toddy- though I'm used to seeing all the components that make up the drink already in the glass: the lemon, cinnamon stick(s) and sometimes a tea bag. Not here. My twin Lobster Tails were perfectly broiled. The warm butter was another highlight on my dish- but I really didn't need it because my lobsters had wonderful juiciness and natural sweetness to them. Hubs enjoyed his pasta+seafood mix in all its glory. The music playlist was a classic mix of my fave Jamiroquai with Kool & The Gang and R&B...yes, in this restaurant. With the exception of a few 2-3 star reviews, everything else is correct: service was incredible, our meals were tasty, drinks powerful and our guy Tyler, was on his toes the entire time. read more

On Saturday, June 7th my wife made a reservation for 7 pm. We arrived and sat at our table and I ordered the Black Cod special. I love black cod and I have cooked much of it over the years. The dish came, and to be honest the first thing it looked like the cod was overcooked. I took my first bite of the fish and spat it out immediately. The fish was off and really fishy. It was all I could do to not throw up. Nothing worse for me than fish that is not fresh. I told my waitress and she immediately tried to tell me that black cod has a fishy taste and the chef had stated that. I was pretty upset as I know I was being given lip service. I went to chef school, and I cook a lot of black cod; I am extremely familiar with the fish. It is a sweet buttery fish that has a rich flavor and texture, and when fresh is NEVER fishy tasting. The fact that the waitress tried to tell me that this was the way it supposed to be was insulting. I orded as steak in replacement which was OK but average. I will never eat here again. I am a local and live near Woodstock. read more

Monday night (after 5pm) is Burger and Brew night. [[HIGHLIGHT]]A nice pub type atmosphere.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] A good selection of beers on tap. The hamburger is huge (prepare to use many napkins, it's sloppy), cooked as requested and very good. It comes with either a salad or fries. Lets start with the so called salad. Well, it was on the plate with the hamburger almost as a garnish. It was a mix of salad greens with a dressing on it. That's it! Could they at least put a tomato on it! The fries were just that, fries, good but nothing special. We also ordered a side of spinach which was extremely salty. Our waitress was pleasant and attentive. Would I go back? Yes, I always give a restaurant a second visit before I write them off. read more

Ship to Shore was a great find! It's a stone's throw from the water, and only a few minute's drive from UPAC making this casual Kingston, NY restaurant a great pre-event choice. I love lamb and the NZ Rack of Lamb was cooked to perfection (rare, as it should be), accompanied by mashed potatoes and asparagus. I would order this entrée again without hesitation. Service was attentive. read more

Been here many times and never had a bad experience! Food is always consistent and good. Staff always goes above and beyond!

I paid $40 for fish and chips and onion rings. I got a small piece of fish and the rest of my container was fries. Onion rings were worth it, fries were great. The food tastes pretty darn good. But $29 for the fish and chips just to get one tiny piece of fish? What a joke. read more

It was ok at best. The food was food and not much more. Void of flavor. Martinis were oddly too strong and I'm not sure how that's possible! Calamari was disappointing. Looks amazing but has the flavor of fryer oil and not much more. Server was lovely and that was the saving grace! read more

This place was a huge disappointment. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The ambiance was fine, but the food was terrible.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I don't know if I got the wrong things, but please save your money and do NOT get the lamb chops or the steak and eggs or the lemonade. Even the Diet Coke tasted like root beer for some reason. Do not be fooled by the photo read more

My friend and I had a very enjoyable experience at this lovely little restaurant. The server was delightful, as was the food. I had the small filet, which was excellent, as was the appetizer, scallops au gratin. The drinks were tasty and unique as well. It is quaint and located in an area full of cute little shops, and well worth a visit. Check it out! read more

Came here for the first time to celebrate our wedding anniversary. It was a pleasant experience. We had reservations for Saturday night and were seated on the patio. It was a nice setting in the center of Kingston. We started out with a bottle of white wine and ordered mussels and squid calamari for apps. They were tasty. For entrees both hubby and I got the branzino which was also tasty. For dessert, we ended with the mango cheesecake, which was different and refreshing. It's definitely a nice spot to check out. read more

I cannot even begin to describe how wonderful this restaurant is. The food was absolutely sublime. My friend & I had the prix fix lunch menu, but their regular menu items & cocktails were just so enticing--limoncello mascarpone cheesecake, anyone?--that I had to add a few of those as well. The space is _really_ visually interesting. An old building in that row of 19th-century commercial edifices facing Roundout Creek, all polished wood & what looked to be the original stamped-tin ceiling. The waitstaff could not have been friendlier or more accommodating. I would give this restaurant 10 stars if I could! read more

We had a party of 6 and all of us had very mixed reviews of Ship to Shore! To start I really loved my strawberry cocktail, super light and refreshing. Nice cocktail menu and there was something for everyone. I had a delicious scallop dish with an Asian type glaze and veggies- I looooved this dish and found the scallops to be cooked to perfection. Others at the table had the scampi, sauasage pasta dish, filet mignon and the fish and chips. They were out of the branzino which was a disappointment! Some of the table enjoyed their meals but others noted bland/lack luster meal- most noteably the scampi was under seasoned and sauce-less. Elevated prices, prime location, and warm vintage intimate vibe inside. I'm not sure I would head back to Ship to Shore just based on the mixed feedback, but I might try for burger night or another special occasion. read more

Last Thursday evening, we stayed in Kingston while traveling. The woman at the front desk of our hotel recommended Ship to Shore when I said we like seafood. First thing to note is that there is a paid parking lot nearby, but you do not have to pay after 6 pm. We had no reservation and the rather small restaurant was crowded, but we got a table near the back for two. Raya was our very attentive and friendly waitress. We had eaten a big lunch, so skipped appetizers and salads. We ordered Bronzino on the regular menu and a Sole and shrimp in skillet special. These entrees were delicious, complimented by a bottle of white wine. When we returned to the Hampton Inn, I thanked the woman at the front desk for an excellent recommendation. Would definitely return if in the area. read more

Read a lot of reviews so wanted to try this place. Drink was good. Tarte was ok. Lamb chops could have been better. Service was just ok. I'd try it again. Surrounding area is beautiful. Pricey. When I walked in I felt like I was in the way. There were people walking around me and not acknowledging me. There are no signs to tell you where to stand. There's tables all around and a small walkway. Good presentation of food/ drinks read more

Food price / quality (value) rating 7.5. The atmosphere is neo-industrial tavern. We stopped in here for lunch on a Sunday, and they were offering a brunch menu, but also allowed us to order from the regular dinner menu. I didn't really see anything on the menu that interested me, so I only ordered an appetizer of Tempora Shrimp. There were five small fried battered pieces that came out undercooked and lukewarm, which were heated properly after asking our server to correct the issue. The wife had the Tomato Saffron Seafood Soup, which was excellent. I also had a Moscow Mule, which had about three times as much lime juice as it should have. Overall, the staff didn't appear to be too engaged with customers l, and service wasn't real attentive. read more

We dined at Ship to Shore again last night, our second time. We're not from the immediate area, but when we were close to Kingston last night, we wanted to try getting in again, since we had such a great meal the first time (a few years ago!). We sat at the bar and were served by Danielle, who allowed us to each try a wine, before we ordered. We thought we were familiar with the vintages, but wanted to be sure, and yep, loved them! On to ordering the food. The first time we went we ordered off the menu, and I regret not writing a review then, because I remembered we loved it. This time, the specials called out to us, and we tried the crab cake with heirloom tomato salad, and the salmon special. When they were delivered to us they looked fabulous, but what did my boyfriend spot on the plate staring up at me? An artichoke! I am VERY allergic. (I know, weird food allergy). Of course I panicked, but he was cool as a cucumber and took the plate away from me, I was just so worried I touched it. (I get horrible hives that take days to go away). I was so mad at myself, I normally read the menu fully and stay far away from anything that has artichokes. I was just so excited by seeing the Heirloom tomato salad (it is summer, after all) that I didn't read the entire description. And it was right there. MY FAULT. Danielle was so kind, she quickly ordered me a new salmon (from the regular menu, sans artichokes) an it was served quite quickly. THANK YOU Ship to Shore and Danielle for turning what could have been a disaster into another great meal. Grateful you all were so gracious, in spite of my failure to basically read. So I want to make sure everyone knows, not only is the food fabulous here, but the people are too. Thanks again! read more

WoW - went tonight for 40th anniversary! Service was spectacular as was the food. We had the scallops, ciopenina, carrot cake, awesome "The infamous goose" sauvignon blanc . Particular kudos to our waitress who was attentive, friendly, knowledge and a complete joy. Made our night special read more

Will return, although the taste is a little bland. There are a few restaurants near the TR Gallo Waterfront Park, by the Rondout Creek. We readily found an empty parking space by this one, so we went in. We've choice of street dining (out door is only good when it's pedestrian only?) or indoor. The high back wooden benches look very comfortable and the cool air convinced us to stay inside. Good service, huge portion and could add a little more flavors. read more

Had a short lunch here when we were heading to Woodstock. Had calamari and fish and chips. We changed the chips to potatoes. Fish didn't look like the crispy fish that we are used to have, but it's still good and fresh. read more
