The restaurant is elevated in both cuisine and atmosphere, but not at all stuffy--perfect for dinner before going to a show. We had an delicious meal in a cozy, well-decorated atmosphere with great service. As others have mentioned, the pita with whipped butter drizzled with honey as a starter is a must. There was a nice selection of mocktails for me, a non-drinker who still wants something festive. My trout was delicious as was my spouse's pork chop. Our salad was not particularly memorable, but was fresh. For dessert we shared a turkish delight panna cotta--it turned out to be heavenly. Fresh, milky panna cotta topped with a layer of soft, rosewater flavored turkish delight (not solid, just right) with some toasted pistachios. We'll definitely return. read more

Great little neighborhood restaurant with a romantic dinner vibe. Parking is not fantastic, even though it's about 20 minutes away, this small town seeems to be EXTREMELY busy during the Rhinebeck sheep and wool festival. For dinner we ordered the soup of the day, I think it was butternut squash the chicken schnitzel & double pork chop for dinner. The pork chop was a LOT of protein. But it was delicious, I had to pick up the bone and make sure I gnawed on it and got every last morsel. The schnitzel was ok, nothing fancy or remarkable. The serve staff was friendly and helpful but I could have used a couple more visits to my table for drink refills. read more

i would love to give this place 5 stars but i didnt like the lamb whatsoever. everything else though? FANTASTIC. the brussels sprouts were unreal, so flavorful with the perfect amount of smokiness. pita with the honey was great, i'd recommend having less butter and drizzling more honey but that's just me being nitpicky. the honey was so good and the butter was nice and airy. pita itself was cooked perfectly and was fluffy, but will note the person next to us had a completely burnt pita and sent it back. but working with an open flame like this you have to understand. the mushroom pasta was to die for, so rich and flavorful. the pasta itself was perfectly al dente as well. interior ambiance was great, i loved the open kitchen and the outdoor patio was adorable. the bar area is refined and classy, overall just beautiful establishment. service was quick, friendly and kind. we wanted to sit on the same side and they made sure we were comfortable and able to do that. unfortunately i took a star off because i did not enjoy the lamb. i prefer my lamb to taste not super gamey but have at least that signature soft gamey lamb flavor. this lamb didn't taste like lamb at all, it almost was remisncent of pork. 0 gamey flavor at all and to me completely missed the mark on what im looking for when eating lamb. i also wasn't a fan of the hummus completely on the bottom, it didn't really pair well with anything and just seemed unnecessary. maybe replacing it with potatoes or more veggies would've been a much better route. the carrots were my favorite part of the dish, tender and tasty. in the end i enjoyed my dinner here a lot but would not recommend ordering the lamb if you're a lamb enthusiast. if you don't like the taste of lamb normally though you might enjoy it. read more

From the start, this restaurant excelled in food, service, and ambience in a casual and roomy dining area. Our waitress was excellent and described everything in great detail as we ordered. Service is top-notch as well as the delectable food. I had the Chicken Schnitzel entree that was tasty and satisfyingly crispy. The Pita appetizer was a creamy dreamy delight. Our dessert was the Citrus Olive Oil Cake baked with almond flour and garnished with slivered almonds. Portions are hefty and nice presented. I can't wait to go back to try more menu selections. read more

I came here after I tried to come a couple of months without a reservation (big mistake!). Silvia is popular for a reason. Snag a reservation as soon as you can! The restaurant had such a cozy vibe and calming atmosphere. The beets and the endive, prosciutto and fig were a MUST appetizer and the mushroom pasta was so fresh and delicious! I will definitely be coming back! read more

Probably one of the best restaurants in the area! Ambiance is great, food is good not great, and service is really pleasantly fast. Here is what we ordered for a group of 4 - Wood Fire Pita (5/5): pita bread was amazing, and the whipped butter with honey was surprisingly light. We had to order 2 more pitas though so everyone could get there own, and at $6/pita, the price is a bit outrageous - Whipped feta and heirloom tomato (5/5): also a hit. really light and refreshing, and also tastes good with the pita - Mushroom pate (3/5): this was just okay for me. the flavor was a bit one-dimensional and did not taste like much - Five leaves salad (4/5): pretty good, but not amazing. - Chicken schnitzel (4.5/5): probably one of the lightest chicken schnitzels I ever had. the breading had a nice crisp, the chicken was not dry, and I loved the green beans that accompanied it - so flavorful - Brussel sprouts (2/5): $15 for 8 brussel sprouts it a bit absurd. also not too tasty Would definitely make a res if you have a weekend trip upstate, but don't have your expectations too high! read more

SILVIA's ambience and décor is simply beautiful--especially at night, making it the perfect date spot. My husband and I started with the wood-fired pita served with whipped butter and honey, which was such a treat. The chicken schnitzel was crispy and delicious, and the green beans it came with didn't disappoint. My husband's steak was decent but a bit lacking in flavor--if not for the side of mushrooms and broccoli rabe, it wouldn't have stood out. read more

Had no trouble walking in for an early dinner on a Sunday.

Amazing!! Cannot recommend enough! I had only heard great things about Silvia and it exceeded our expectations. The location was excellent, right in the middle of the main strip in Woodstock. Had a cozy and intimate vibe. We sat at the bar and had excellent service. For food we tried three dishes and all three blew us away! read more

Went here for the first time last week. Everything gets 5 stars: The food, the service, the atmosphere. We had the prosciutto & fig appetizer, the local mushroom & pasta rags, and chicken schnitzel. We enjoyed everything so much we went again the following night. It's also one of the few places open after 8 p.m. Highly recommend. read more

Food was good! We got a couple apps to share. The portions were a little small (especially for the pork chops). I really enjoyed the mushroom pasta. Very flavorful. The service was okay. Not the baby friendliest place. No changing table in the bathroom but it's big enough that you can figure it out. Espresso martini was okay. Very cute vibe/ambiance. read more

Wonderful restaurant in town, Woodstock, not far from Woodstock playhouse. Nice dining rooms with open kitchen, and has a nice outside deck which I'm sure they use in warmer weather. Food was excellent and nicely plated. Waitstaff was exceptional. Unfortunately I didn't get her name, but she was very well informed, knew all ingredients of dishes, was pleasant and helpful. Only negative, was it was a little too dimly lit. I know it's often good for ambiance, but a little bit lighter would have been nice. Would highly recommend , and nice for a special occasion. We were celebrating our anniversary as was the couple next to us. Parking on the street, can be a little challenging. read more

Whoa... From start to finish an excellent experience. We brought a group of 23 colleagues for a team dinner, and Silvia completely exceeded expectations. The planning process was seamless -- Charlie and James were incredibly communicative and accommodating, making sure we had the right menu and seating setup well in advance. The food? Outstanding. Every dish that came out was both beautiful and delicious, with flavors that sparked conversation at every table. The family-style service was perfect for a group our size, and we had a fantastic variety of dishes without anyone having to stress over individual orders. Several members of our team commented that this was the best meal we've had across any of our quarterly offsites (and we've dined in a lot of great cities!). Service was just as memorable. James and the entire staff were attentive without being intrusive, friendly, and genuinely welcoming. Even when he had to step away to handle a building issue, everything ran smoothly -- a testament to how well the team operates. If you're planning a group dinner in the Woodstock area, I can't recommend Silvia highly enough. The combination of thoughtful planning, warm hospitality, and truly exceptional food made this a night to remember.. read more

Very disappointed with the service. The waiter was rude and treated us differently compared to other customers. The behavior felt discriminatory and made us extremely uncomfortable. The service was poor, and the waiter's behavior toward us was noticeably different from how other guests were treated. The tone, comments, and lack of respect felt discriminatory. This ruined the entire dining experience. Until staff are properly trained to treat all customers equally, I cannot recommend this restaurant. We came to enjoy a meal, not to feel judged or disrespected. Management really needs to address how their staff treats customers. I will not be returning read more

SILVIA was THE place everyone who had visited or lived in Woodstock raved about; it was clearly the spot to dine around town. Once I walked into the warm, welcoming, and modern farmhouse, I saw why people were enamored with it. There was a pristine open kitchen, a stylish bar with nearby seating, and an upscale dining area overseeing it all. In addition, the service was patient, delicate, and efficient. I started by trying the Mushroom Lentil Pate with walnuts. The creamy, rich, and earthy spread was a delicious addition to the top of a slice of the accompanying charred toast. The platter also included some pickled onions, radishes, and cornichons, as well as a small pool of horseradish mustard. It was a great start to the meal. My main dish was the Seafood Bouillabaisse, which contained mussels, monkfish, scallops, shrimp, squid, and fresh fennel. While I really liked the tomato-saffron sofrito broth, I thought the fish itself was rather bland. There was just some sort of seasoning missing from the stew...perhaps black pepper. SILVIA provided a lovely experience, but I would try a different entree next time. read more

Silvia is a perfect blend of moser and upscale while still providing you with the Woodstock nature feel. The service was phenomenal friendly and careful. We got a seat outside and it was the perfect date night scene(Also it's pup friendly). We got the spicy margarita and rhubarb basil sour. The sour was a little better. For starters we got the manilla clam & wild ramp. It was zesty and buttery and the clams were cleaned nicely. For mains we got the spring seafood chowder and the local grass fed and finished steak. I love soup, this was a little disappointing for me. The amount of seafood was fair for the price, but the broth was bland. I also expect a bit of a creamier broth when I think chowder. It was very light which wasn't a bad thing just surprising and I thought the veggies were chopped a little too large for a soup. The steak on the other hand phenomenal. It had the sear you could scrape with a knife. Also a nice portion and it was salty and perfect cooked at a medium rare. It came with broccoli rabe and mushrooms. The broccoli rabe and mushrooms held their integrity and still had a good bite. The mustard that came with the steak was tbe nice spicy cut to the buttery steak. If ever in the area again I would go back or visit their sister restaurant read more

We loved Silvia. (table 207 - 2/28/26 4:55 PM) Setting the tone for the evening we were greeted with genuine, friendly, unstressed smiles from the folks at the front desk, and given an option of several places to be seated. We chose a lovely round corner table banquette surrounded by windows. We were three, with our guest being gluten intolerant. Service was very pleasant, efficient and attentive; never intrusive. Specifically, kudos to our server (Caitlin K) who was wonderful. She was patient and kind, with myriad questions asked of her (sometimes asked twice). Her explanations were thorough, crisp and clear, and her suggestions were spot on. Once we ordered she reiterated our selections and preferences to make sure she was clear and to insure we got exactly what we wanted and how we wanted it. Our dishes came at a perfect pace. We were very happy with all our food and drinks. Portions are generous, and nicely balanced. Highlights included the shrimp and lamb sausage appetizer, (a meal itself) the 5 leaves salad, the Jerusalem artichoke soup, and brussels sprouts side. The chicken schnitzel was delicious, and the seafood stew was very good. The pots de creme are chocolate heaven. I would imagine the rest of the offerings are equally good. We are likely to find out as I am sure we will return many times. Thank you so much. read more

We made at 5:45 reservation and sat in a cozy corner table. The kitchen is open to the restaurant but not intrusive. The walls are decorated with mixed art. The natural light comes through the front of the restaurant. Over very cozy. Our server was attentive, friendly and knowledgeable. Our cocktails were yummy and well balanced. The prosciutto and fig app was delicious. The spice, salt and cheese were the perfect balance. Our dinners were just as delicious. The tarragon aioli is memorable. I would definitely come again for a date night. read more

This place is top notch. The food is nothing short of superb. Great atmosphere and service.

Highly Recommend! Service, food and ambiance were impeccable. Food: For appetizers, we got the lamb and shrimp pita and a kale and brussels salad. Both were very tasty and great choices. I got the blueberry sour and espresso martini to drink and they were great. For entrees, we got the chicken schnitzel (not something I would usually order, but saw recommendations online) and lamb chops. Both dishes had interesting and deep flavors but we were impressed by the simplistic yet flavorful chicken. Both had innovative flavors! Dessert: We got the Turkish delight panna cotta and the lavender chocolate pot. Both not too sweet and delicious Would love to come back! read more

WOW. We loved Silvia! We were in Woodstock for some hiking and did not expect to find such a good restaurant! Book ahead of time as reservations do book up during busy times. The atmosphere was amazing and it felt so cozy. They also have a huge outdoor space that was also super cool. The drinks, apps, and desserts were very good, but the star of the show were the two entrees we got. The lamb was probably the best lamb dish I'd ever had. I couldn't' stop thinking about it for weeks after. We also got the trout and it was outstanding as well. Everything was so flavorful and seasoned well (not boring at all!). The other thing I appreciated was that they really focus on vegetables and they are present in every dish, but also available as apps. We loved Silvia and you should definitely check it out! read more

I went there with a group of coworkers. I would probably be too cheap to go by myself. The food was amazing. Smoked savoy cabbage was unexpectedly good. Then there was the best trout I ever tried, cooked to perfection, with crispy skin on the outside, and the inside that melts in your mouth. I was very impressed by the grilled halloumi and watermelon plate - I'd never think about combining those, but the flavor was outstanding. The restaurant has dimmed lighting, and looks festive but not pompous. The service was timely without being pushy. I would happily come back. read more

Food is amazing! Inventive and tasty! Just amazing! Best trout I have ever eaten. Team is amazing! Excellent professional service with a joyful smile! Great vibe! Go there! Go to Silvia! read more

One of best meals we've had all year. We went on a Saturday night and it was packed. -ambiance is great. You're in the mountains, the lighting is welcoming, and it's just a cool place -servers very friendly and knowledgeable -great portions. We got three appetizers, which might have been overkill, the steak special and their mushroom pasta. People around us ordered different things and they all looked good -the ingredients were local, fresh, and the whole meal exceeded our expectations -missed dessert unfortunately You should come here either with a DD or if you're staying close. I was sad to have missed the cocktails, as they looked great, too. 5/5. Don't miss it if you're in the area. read more

We had made reservations for the five of us on a relatively quiet Friday evening in Woodstock, and the town was quiet because everyone had lined up or were waiting to be seated at Silvia's! Reservations highly recommended though, as we still had to wait a few minutes before being seated in our extremely comfortable booth seating which was perfect for our toddler! We started off a few cocktails which included a nice mezcal drink and old fashioned, and also a rather disappointing Szechuan mule. The Szechuan mule lacked the peppercorn taste and was very mediocre. The other two drinks were absolutely amazing though. For appetizers, we ordered a few things which included Mushroom Lentin Pate ($17), Lamb Merguez and Wild Shrimp ($24), Smoked Beet ($15), Patatas Bravas ($15), and some toast. The Mushroom Pâté was absolutely delicious and was the best appetizer, followed by Smoked Beet and the lamb. Patatas bravas were good too, while they were warm but as soon as they got a little cold, they became very dry to eat. Decent portion sizes, enough to fill us up, but we also ended up ordering the Local Mushroom & Pasta Rags ($32) which was packed with a lot of flavor. Highly recommend that plate to anyone out there is a vegetarian. The most delicious Pasta I've had in recent times! Special shoutout to Aaron, our server who took really good care of us. Very friendly and welcoming, and ensured we had a pleasant evening. Service overall was excellent and food came within 20 mins of ordering. Noise level were on the average end and the menu overall was definitely on the expensive side of things. We will visit again, specifically for their Local Mushroom & Pasta Rags! read more

So happy we decided to eat at Silvia's tonight! Everything was delicious and the service and atmosphere was excellent. We weren't sure what to expect bringing our 18 month old but the staff were so friendly and accommodating and our son loved watching what was going on in the open kitchen. It's hard to pick a favorite dish but I really enjoyed my pork chop entree which was charred perfectly yet maintained its juiciness - the grits delicious and not overly heavy. We also LOVED the house made pita and whipped feta with honey and maldon. The artichoke soup was yummy and cozy as well. Nothing bad to say about any of the dishes, everything was amazing and the portions are a nice size, so you really feel like you get your money's worth! Loved the interior design as well! 100% would come back in a heartbeat. read more

We have been to Sylvia many times and the food and service is always exemplary. But I leave this review for one reason- the two bartenders behind the bar on Saturday evening October 11 2025. We noticed that as you come to the bar they are there right away with menus in hand but when you tell them you just want a drink and that you are dining not at the bar they drop you like a hammer. It's so obvious. We waited 20 minutes with just stares and no Service. Frustrated we walked away. I complained about it to the hostess hoping she would tell the manager. I doubt she did as no manager ever came to see us. The pattern is open, blatant and unprofessional. It made the experience less than we had hoped. read more

I don't have one bad thing to say. Really good service. Good food. Cocktails are creative. Get the mushroom rags pasta. Unbelievable.

Food, service and ambiance was awesome. Friendly servers and management. Clean, unique menus

Spectacular place. Every time we are in town, we make an appointment to go here several times. Every item on the menu is absolutely spectacular, seasonal, fresh and so wonderfully done. I can say with confidence that we've had just about every item on the current menu and I would eat them all again and again. The chicken schnitzel is my absolute favorite. It is the perfect execution. Simply perfect. read more

Ok so we're up here dog sitting for my grand puppies! We're looking for a change, always going to downtown Kingston. I decide let's try to get a reservation at Silvia up in Woodstock. 4:30 or 9:30. Ok let's hit the 4:30 spot! This place is really chic and special. They show us to the corner table on the left as you come in....I love it as does my friend. She can't get over the hip classy ambiance and the beautiful people coming into the place, even that early. We get a bottle of champagne. It's just bubbly delightful! Next the appetizer which is the burrata. Nice!! The entree we go with the duck breast to share. Oh gosh they know how to do it! All in all just a perfect evening!! read more

It is too expensive what you receive. Food is quite frankly tasteless and service is standard. Wood smoked pork chop was way too smoky and seemed to lack any other seasoning. Would not recommend. Go to Pearl Moon, right next door. Less expensive and truly delicious food, their French Onion soup... wow!!!!! read more

Food and service fantastic!! I had the Chicken Schnitzel, yummy breaded chicken with capers, roasted lemon and green beans! My partner had the lentil mushroom pate and a pasta mushroom dish. The food is off the charts. Hospitality is very attentive, we asked to have our leftovers to go and they were packed up by our server. Excellent dining experience. read more

I had a great meal here the other night. First time here and we sat outside. Really cute place, lovely weather. Excellent service and very good food and drinks. So why only 4 stars? The prices are just a little ridiculous. Came with my boyfriend and we shared two delicious appetizers - citrus halloumi and fig and prosciutto. They were both excellent! For my entree I had the mushrooms and pasta rags which was so so good. So rich and full of flavor! My boyfriend had the lemon basil risotto which was alright, but not nearly as good as the mushroom pasta dish (and he doesn't love mushrooms the way I do). Also ordered the shishito peppers...not my thing, but my boyfriend did like it. We also shared a delicious lemon cashew pie with strawberries and mint. I also loved my rhubarb sour cocktail and my boyfriend liked his cocktails as well. It was a genuinely good meal. But $18 cocktails, $19 appetizers, and $32 vegetarian entrees? I'm not someone who's usually eating at Applebee's, but it's Woodstock. Adorable town but these are NYC prices....in Woodstock. Our meal was like $240 before tip. read more
