THE FOOD ---------------- + New England Seafood Chowder - Very good. Came out piping hot and had lots of potato chunks, carrots and fish inside. Only knock is we wish we had more! + Clam Pizza - Personal pie size pizza. Honestly, just the right size. Verrrrry delicious and verrrrry flavorful, BUTTTTT the flavor didn't come from the clams - it came from the over-dominating flavor of the bacon scattered all over the pizza. Not to say that the bacon flavor was bad, but it could have used more clams. + Kids Mac and Cheese - Gooey just the way we, especially our kids, love it. + Grilled Angus Burger - Solid burger. Cooked medium and it was the right shade of pink inside, but the burger was a litttttle dry. It was not dripping juices and oil as I would prefer. Plenty of fries onions on it though. Fries reminded me of the thin McD fries. + Steak Tacos - Just 2 tacos. Would have liked if it was an order of 3. Steak was good though. Guac inside mixed with the steak chunks definitely made it better considering that the steak was well done. THE SERVICE ------------------- + Friendly and courteous waiter. Accommodated our numerous ketchup requests and never forgot anything. + Food came out VERY quickly. - For the Grilled Angus Burger, cheese did not come with it for free, but the waiter asked what cheese I wanted, which misled me to think that cheese came with the order. I ended up adding swiss cheese, which definitely made the burger better, but it was an extra charge. The extra $2 for the cheese was not the issue, but the way that I felt that the waiter misled me was the issue. Instead of asking what cheese I wanted, he should have asked "Would you like cheese with your order?" It's the principle. Feel me? Because of this, had to knock off a star off what would have been a 4-star review. THE SURROUNDINGS -------------------------------- + Private parking lot was in the back. All of the spaces in the front are for the Rye Train Station and paid, so DO NOT park in front of the restaurant if you're here to dine. + SUPER spacious restaurant with 2 levels - 2nd level seems like it is for private parties. 1st level has 3 dining areas PLUS a nice, huge bar area. + Multiple TVs located by the bar. RANDOM OBSERVATIONS -------------------------------------- + Came by on a random August Friday at 11:45 AM and, as expected, it was pretty quiet at first, but business picked up verybquickly and it became pretty busy by 12:45. read more

- Large, spacious restaurant with a rustic yet classy vibe; plenty of seating throughout, including tables, booths, and a bar; second-level space for private events, along with outdoor seating in the front - Small, somewhat tight private parking lot located to the left of the restaurant--easy to miss if you're not looking for it - Service was friendly, attentive, and consistent throughout our meal - Food was enjoyable overall: seafood chowder was served piping hot and loaded with generous chunks of fish, potatoes, and carrots--flavor was excellent, although we were surprised it wasn't served with oyster crackers for some added crunch; steak tacos were tasty and well-flavored, but the portion was quite small for an entrée; the clam pie was well prepared with a pleasantly chewy dough--was quite heavy on the bacon, which unfortunately overpowered the clam flavor, but it was still a good pie overall; the grilled angus burger had good flavor and cooked to the requested medium, though it wasn't as juicy as expected--the crispy onions were also more chewy than crispy; kids' mac and cheese was nice and gooey--a solid choice for the kiddos read more

Fell Short Parking: D - They really need valet parking. Parking was inconvenient and took away from the overall experience. Ambiance: B - Typical steakhouse atmosphere. Nice enough, but nothing particularly memorable or unique. Bathroom: C - The restroom was very hot and had an unpleasant odor reminiscent of a urinal. It could definitely use remodeling and better ventilation. Service: A - Excellent and nearly perfect. The staff was attentive, professional, and one of the highlights of the evening. Food: C - Unfortunately, the food was disappointing. My porterhouse steak was cut very thin and was overcooked. I also did not enjoy the cold potatoes. In addition, the meal should have been served on two plates or with a larger plate, as it was difficult to cut the steak comfortably. read more

Service was not exactly adequate Lighting was dim as well. Seats were hard as heck wood and mighty uncomfortable The food was--overall, mehhh First the potato skins were minuscule, Lilliputian and almost not even big enough to be considered bite sized The Caesar salad was...hmmmm, Ho-hum with fresh and crisp greens, ample if not generous Parmesan and tasty albeit stingy portion chicken. I tried the steak tacos and this was a fumble. Bland steak, miserly portions and soggy soft shell. The raviolis were a tad undercooked but really tasty. The sauce had a hair too much red wine but the taste as still very good and the portion rather admirable. I'd order it again. The Apple blossom desert was amazing. Dough was slightly and pleasantly sweet and the apple was caramelized and tender. So.... Food was a solid 3-4 The service a gentleman's C in or 3 The comfort and ambiance a 2 read more

Love the food! Love the service! Ron our waiter was so friendly and accommodating!! The restaurant looks like a beautiful house with an outdoor porch where you have the option to dine on if you'd like. The inside you have a beautiful bar area to the left and a dining area to the right with a fire place giving a comfy upscale feel. The prices are a little on the pricier side so something to note. I recommend the shrimp tacos and Parmesan fries! You have the option to host events there too as I was witness to a couple during my time there. The only con is the parking situation. I've only ever been during the day for lunch and there are never any parking spots. I always spend a good 10-15 minutes circling around for one to open up. They do have a small dedicated lot nearby, but very limited spots and tight area. Plan accordingly. read more

Went for brunch and we very very happy. Loved the decor - the tiled floors, the lighting wood finishes, lots of welcoming ambiance. We had the crab cake Benedict and the Brussels sprouts pizza. The pizza was fantastic. The dough wast well cooked, the ratio of sprouts and cheese and pancetta was spot on. We enjoyed our brunch. A lot of reviews mentioned bad service - our server was nice but not super nice. Once things go busier I could see why the complaints could happen. However, our experience was good. read more

Here's the skinny on Rye grill and bar. Definitely more of a social scene than known for its food. We waited a long time for a table and sat at the bar which was great. Good service. Food was fine, everything came out cold. Very loud atmosphere. Would be curious if it wasn't during the holidays if it would be a little bit quieter. I couldn't even hear conversation. Definitely more of a bar scene. Not sure I would visit again. read more

This was sadly one of the worst experiences. Server was as dead as fish as my seafood. Dead pan face. When I asked about a Reisling she said "the wines are listed!" Oh well. This room is noisy, but the patrons are spoiled Westchester residents who bring two and three kids to a restaurant and let them scream! If you want to hear children screaming because their parents are the real spoiled brats, go to The Rye grill! Food was okay. Meatballs were good. Paella was not Paella! It was cioppino at best. $120 two people, no drinks. read more

I love exploring towns all over Westchester and Rye is definitely one of my favorites. Besides being super walkable, the restaurants never disappoint. Rye Grill and Bar has one of the best menus, especially for brunch. I recently dined here for my cousin's bridal shower and the service was amazing. Order the pecan crusted salmon, it is delicious! The servers were nothing but attentive, our glasses were always full. Will be back! read more

Always great service and good food. If you want to talk as you dine do not sit in the bar area, too noisy!

Very disappointing experience at Rye Grill & Bar today. The service was extremely slow from the start. We waited about 15 minutes for our waiter to come over and then another 20 minutes before he took our order. We also didn't have enough glasses for water. Unfortunately, the problems continued with the food. A beer we ordered never arrived. A burger ordered medium came out medium-rare, and it was supposed to have bacon and fries but came with broccoli and no fries. My daughter's pickles were forgotten, and there was a piece of hair in her fries. Throughout the meal, the waiter repeatedly apologized, but the same issues continued. He also used the F-word in front of our three children, which we found completely inappropriate. Mistakes happen, but the combination of the slow service, incorrect orders, food issue, and inappropriate language made this a very disappointing dining experience. We expected much better. read more

Once again visiting Westchester for Thanksgiving and once again trying one of the local restaurants on Thanksgiving Eve. This time, we came to Rye Grill & Bar. They set us up in a large private room on the second floor. It was a spacious and comfortable setting, big enough to give the kids space to run around and quiet enough to let the adults hear each other talk. Our server quickly took our drink orders, then we settled in and perused the classic American menu. For appetizers we had chicken wings, potato skins, and meatballs. All of them were great, but the real standouts were the entrees. I had a blackened monkfish special. It was truly a gem of a dish. The monkfish was nice and light. It paired beautifully with the mango salsa, sautéed spinach and jasmine rice. If they can reliably source the fish, I'd recommend that they make it a permanent part of the menu. Overall I highly recommend Rye Grill & Bar. 5/5 read more

This delightful restaurant was a great find. It's nestled next to the train station but you won't find it noisy in any way. The food menu has lots of options and they ranged from steak to pizza. The service is excellent too. The only thing lacking is a lackluster dessert menu. read more

Excellent service- extremely professional and attentive..Plenty of parking. Everyone was very nice! Delicious food!

Went out for dinner with some coworkers and ordered the Grilled Petite Fillet Mignon. The baguette was crunchy and the fries were addicting. The place gets busy so make sure to book a reservation before going! The server was very attentive. read more

Quick bite to eat. Local crowd, mostly. Decent food. Service was great. We would go back.

My Daughters wedding shower was hosted at this establishment. As tradition dictates, most men were not there including myself. My wife was highly satisfied with the planning and implementation of the event. There were accolades for the service and food quality that included passed items and a buffet station. The location is convenient for Manhattan based attendees as the Metro North station is practically next door. The private space was large enough for 80-90 guests comfortably. The bar staff (I showed up late) was on their toes and kind and generous. I would recommend this venue for these reasons. read more

Very nice atmosphere, feels like I was on the Cape once inside. Appetizers were good, had the margarita pizza, calamari and mussels. Lobster roll, extra $3 if you get it warm with butter. Horrible chairs, and the noise level in the back room, couldn't hear myself think. Good service, desserts were ok, cheese cake very dry. I could take it or leave it. Not my go to place. read more

You really can't go wrong with Rye Grill & Bar. It's one of those rare places that's large and lively enough for a big group or a family dinner, yet still feels warm and inviting with its fireplaces and cozy tavern decor. read more

Went here for brunch and ordered from their breakfast menu. We got Steak&Eggs and Salmon eggs Benedict. Both of these entrees came with home fries which was probably the most bland home fries i had in my life. the steak was not seasoned at all and totally not worth it. the eggs that came with it was scrambled up with grease and burnt. i was very disappoint. however, the salmon eggs benedict was flavorful and pretty good so i recommend getting that one instead of the steak eggs. the service was pretty annoying they kept coming over like 10 times asking us if we want anything else or if we were done with our meal. there was literally no peace. they would stand and watch us. i didn't like the vibe because of it. the ambiance indoors was pretty cool lots of decorations and a cozy fireplace yet it was pretty cold in there still and everyone in the dining area still wore their coats? put up the heat. First time and my definitely last time. 2/10 D- read more

Beautiful restaurant with lots of charm. Lots of parking nearby as well. Chicken wings were tasty with a slight kick. Filet was cooked well and had good flavor. I liked the cookie skillet for dessert. Service was attentive and helpful. Prices were fair for the area. Was nice for a work dinner, or a special occasion. The patio looked beautiful to sit at on a nice day. read more

On approach we see this beautiful building. Very cozy inside with booths and tables. The chairs are for those who are in and out. Not really comfortable. We ordered appetizers. The calamari was nothing to write home about. Some of the pieces looked like BUGLES. Potato skins.... Not looking like any other potato skin I've ever had The meatballs were delicious. Those at our table loved the filet sandwich and the burgers were quite ok. I hear this place has been here forever. Not to be my go to in a pinch place. It was ok read more

Stoped in for a rehearsal dinner-hors d'oeuvres upstairs. It was two weeks before Christmas so lots of groups were having their party or a get together. Staff worked hard and all was good as far as the food goes. My only negative is the drinks. My first skinny margarita was amazing and the other two made by another bartender were just ok. Wish they followed a recipe to stay consistent. I would return. read more

The Rye Grill & Bar - Egg white special & salmon burger - Diners Near Me - Rye, New York

This is the loudest restaurant I have ever experienced. We were seated in the main room, four of us around a small table, leaning in - and could not hear each other speaking. There are no acoustic tiles on the ceiling, nothing on the walls - and this place just echoes. It's unbelievably noisy. When your waiter is saying, "What?", you know it's loud. I asked to be moved to a quieter location and was informed that there was nothing quieter. Then...as our food arrived, they set up a table with a party for 10 kids under 10 years old - right in the middle of the main room. That made an impossible situation even worse. I complained to the manager and suggested that a party like that ought to be in their upstairs area, so their regular diners could eat in relative peace - and her response was that "upstairs is closed". 10 kids in a room that was already crazy loud. My head was pounding. I told the manager that it was ridiculous to put that party in that room - and her response was, "Right." Right? ... Right? We left and went elsewhere to get desert --- and won't be going back to Rye Grill again. Unless you have no interest in carrying on a conversation while you eat, stay away from this place. read more

We're here for a party with a group of about 80. It's a 12-4 party. The choices are grilled salmon, grilled chicken, and ribeye steak. The salmon is ok. The chicken is dry. And the steak is less than 1/2 inch thick so no matter how you ordered it, it came well done. There was no switching. So if you wanted more vegetables instead of potatoes - tough luck. One of the people at my table has lactose intolerance. She explained this to the server and he said he understood. It still came wrong. There was a small presentation and we were only 2 tables away but couldn't hear anything. There was so much noise coming from the other rooms and the downstairs that it was impossible. There was a cash bar and the price was still $70 per person. There should have at least been soda on the table. The Caesar salad was good and that's the only reason for the one star read more

This place has a nice look but it's too loud. We were upstairs for a party and it's ridiculous. We can't hear our speaker because of the noise downstairs. So if you're coming here don't come to the open upstairs area, go into the room that the doors can close. It's a pretty, open area, with a nice looking bar. But nothing to help the noise. Even hard to hear people at our table. There is one bathroom that is a single stall. It's upstairs and crazy that when this place is packed there's such a line. Isn't it required to have more bathrooms when it's a larger restaurant? The cheese, salami and meats, and crackers were delicious! The main course, eh. I got the Parmesan crusted ribeye. Asked for medium rare but it was definitely well done. And super fatty. I get it's the cut of meat but still. I lost maybe a third of my meal to fat. And it came on garlic baguette that was good, but it didn't come with lettuce or tomatoes as advertised. The servers were nice enough. When I asked they did give our table a pitcher of soda for us. That was nice and saved me from having to ask a lot. Our cousin was very clear that needed dairy free. The apple tart came with ice cream even though that wasn't advertised. Then when it came out there was a sauce on it. A nice employee read the bottles to see if she could have the sauce. And she couldn't. So they got her another completely plain. Crazy that it was so hard to get something dairy free but thank you nice employee for taking it seriously. I wasn't sure if I would give this place one or two stars but I stuck with one because their handicap entrance is not obvious. Yes there's a ramp to the side, but then when you look up there's still stairs. I didn't know you had to go all the way around. My father has a walker, going all the way around was just as difficult as going up the stairs. Crazy. read more

Randomly stopped here for dinner on a Saturday night while driving through the area. It was very busy, which was a good sign. We were seated upstairs, and the ambiance was nice. The menu was pretty typical American fare. I got the margarita pizza, and it was pretty okay. Not amazing but it was good enough. I think the restaurant ambiance and location is nice but the food seemed average based on what other members of my table said as well. read more

Tacos were not great (meat was very chewy like it still had the sliver skin). The pizza tasted like frozen pizza.

What great experience. Stopped by for a table of 3. The restaurant was fairly busy around 2pm on a Saturday however we were able to get a seat immediately. We ordered spicy bloody Mary's. A must when we come here! We ordered some wings for the table and .. wow! Some of my favorite wings. Perfect crispy to soft ratio. I always enjoy the ambience when we stop by here. We sat by the fire, it was so nice and totally kept me toasty on this cold winter day. There were a couple of parties going on. There is an upstairs and a room on the side for these special events. We ordered the pot chicken, filet and skirt steak. All very filling and all so delicious. I wouldn't change a thing about our experience here. I also recommend the warm goat cheese salad, I usually hold off on the walnuts but overall I think every dish I've had from this restaurant is always cooked and presented to perfection. read more

I have dined at this location for decades. I have seen it change from a good spot of casual fare to mediocrity. Hard to park, place was not busy but it took awhile to be greeted. When asked to turn up the heat, the server said it was pleasant, didn't understand that comment. Martini was not the best ! Please learn how to make cocktails if you are charging 15 - 20 for cocktails! read more

We recently held a Family Reunion lunch at the Rye Bar and Grill. It was wonderful. A central Westchester location for our now scattered family coming from every direction. The train is across the street for those traveling from the city and CT. We were on the 2nd floor private party room. The room fit the 60 persons comfortably. Ages 1-85. The space was bright and clean. Besides stairs there's an elevator for easy access. The staff was amazing, they had everything we needed ready including high chairs and a table for the clowns hired.for the kids. Allowed us to come early to bring flowers, etc.. A large TV was available to post family photos. The bar was placed right outside the room. Great for greeting party goers. The open bar, beer, wine and aperol spritz , accompanied the lunch very nicely. We had a buffet of appetizers and a sit down lunch. The food was delicious. Enjoyed by all. Also, the staff had no problem with us bringing our own added dessert. Rye grill made it easy to plan the party and answered all questions before and during the date set. A big thank you to the hard working staff and cooks. Our shindig was a success. read more

The chicken gumbo soup was DELICIOUS. Our soup and sandwiches were tasty and prepared per our requests. The reason I'm here on Yelp? The sloppy, inattentive greeter (manager?) kept two parties waiting for several minutes while he was on the phone. He didn't make eye contact, acknowledge us, or apologize for the delay. NOT the best first impression. read more

We came here on Saturday night around 7pm and we were seated right away in the bar area. The atmosphere is fun. The bar area is laid back with tables and cozy chairs with cute low tables to have drinks and food with friends. The other side of the restaurant is more sophisticated with booths (from what I saw). The service was great and everyone was super friendly. The food was okay. I had the blackened shrimp tacos. It seemed like they chopped up one piece of shrimp per taco (2 per order) it was tasty but I felt like I was eating tortilla, crunchy lettuce and avocado with an occasional tiny piece of shrimp. My husband ordered the burger and he said it was really good. My kids had the chicken fingers. I did try a bite (always check out the kids food lol) and I liked that they weren't dry and they were panko breaded so they were crunchy which was nice. All in all I would come back. read more
