I love the updated menu, especially the addition of a few more entrées, while still offering plenty of small plates to try and share. The food is always enjoyable, the service is great, and it's just one of those places you consistently look forward to going back to. I almost never write reviews, which should say something about how much we enjoy this place. Honestly, part of me wants to keep this hidden gem a secret, but they deserve the recognition!

The wine list is very nicely currated with something for everyone. The staff is friendly and efficient. The lamb pops on a small bed of spinach was prepared perfectly. The pasta fagoli had excellent stock and The veal parmesan with spaghetti was very good. The zeppolis for dessert covered with powded sugar came fresh and hot. The prices are gentle and we will come back.

A local place on the corner of main street that lacks night life, ok granted it was a Wednesday…read morenight. The centerpiece of this restaurant in my opinion is the beautiful horse shoe shaped bar in the middle of the restaurant. I typically enjoy a nice clean and clear bar so you can fall into the feeling of the restaurant and see what is happening all around. This bar had bottles of wines lining the bar, in my opinion I would remove the bottles and allow for a more open feel. Personally I felt that the bottles created a barrier between me and the bar tender. The outside tables are tables typically for 2 or 4 people with banquet seating and then chairs. Oh, my God How's this boy treating you? Very good wonderful started The service was attentive but not over bearing which created a relaxed feeling.. I was looking for a wine and cheese bar for a night our for myself. I wanted a place that I have not been to before and yelp directed me here Wines on Aug range from 15 and up for a glass which is not outrageous in price. They had a nice selection of wines and I stepped out of ny own comfort zone of a cab and tried the house Pinot Noir accompanied by the B6 board. Overall I was satisfied with the meat and cheese selection and baguette that was served with it had a nice oil on it. Presentation was well done with one exception in my mind, the breads ticks came in a package. Presentation factor went down with that. Take one of the small wife carafe used to serve the wine and present it in that. Overall I felt something was missing but could not put my finger on it. Overall this place has a great date night vibe.

I rarely write negative reviews, but the way we were treated was disappointing enough that I feel…read moreother customers should know about our experience. I arrived around 5:30 p.m. and was waiting for my friend, who was about 30 minutes away. The bar was completely empty at the time. One of the waitresses kindly offered me a nearby table while I waited. I ordered a sparkling water and spinach artichoke dip and sat there until my friend arrived. Once my friend arrived, our waitress told us she understood that I had only been sitting at that table while waiting and offered to show us the back area so we could choose where we wanted to sit. We walked through the restaurant, saw the outdoor patio, and decided to sit outside. After about 20 minutes, while still waiting for our appetizers, bugs repeatedly landed on the table and were biting us. We decided we would be more comfortable inside. As we were walking back in, our waitress was coming out with two of our three appetizers, and the owner, who I believe was named Dawn or Donna, was behind her. My friend began explaining that we wanted to move inside because of the bugs. Before she could even finish, the owner interrupted us with an attitude and said, "You ladies can't keep moving from table to table. I have to wash these tablecloths." I was honestly stunned. First, we were not randomly moving ourselves from table to table. Her own employee had offered me the first table while I waited for my friend and then specifically offered to show us other seating once my friend arrived. Second, there wasn't even a tablecloth on the outdoor table we were leaving. When I tried to explain that we had been offered the different seating, the owner responded by pointing out that I had eaten at the first table and now she had to clean that table as well as another one. That response told me everything I needed to know about how our business was valued. As a business owner, if your concern over cleaning a table or washing a tablecloth outweighs making two paying customers feel welcomed and comfortable, you may save a few dollars on laundry, but you can also lose customers permanently. Unfortunately, the food didn't make the experience any better. The vegetable spring rolls and chicken spring rolls were overcooked. The spinach artichoke dip and pita bread were the only items we really enjoyed. We also waited approximately 10-12 minutes just to get ice. We probably should have left after the owner's initial interaction, but we stayed, finished our wine, and graciously paid our bill. What made the experience even more uncomfortable happened as we were leaving. The owner thanked my friend for coming, then looked at me and said, "No hard feelings. I just needed to say what I needed to say." There were hard feelings--not because she addressed a legitimate issue, but because of how she chose to speak to paying customers when the seating changes had been offered by her own staff and the final move was simply because we were being bitten by bugs outside. Customer service matters. Courtesy matters. How you speak to people who choose to spend their money in your establishment matters. Unfortunately, based on the owner's treatment of us, I will not return. What could have been a pleasant evening and an opportunity to gain two repeat customers instead became an experience that ensured we won't be back.

The staff is always friendly and they all know my folks so it feels like being at home each time. The food is delicious, the cheese bread and fried calamari are delicious and the spicy sauce they serve with it is amazing. They make a very good vodka sauce, I've had the Vodka Chicken Parm and the Spicy Vodka Lobster with of which are top notch and I'd go back for either. They also make an amazing Osso Bucco, though it's a special only once in a while. The cons are parking which can be downright impossible, especially when the outside area is open for business. Also, it's not advised to drop by without a reservation, you could be waiting a very long time.

The baked clams and mussels were outstanding, and the crusty bread was perfect for soaking up every drop of sauce. I added jalapeños to the Snow White pizza and it was incredible. The dough had the perfect chew and flavor. My boyfriend's chicken parm was massive--two huge cutlets--and easily a 10/10. The seafood pasta was equally delicious. Dessert was the perfect finish: frozen espresso, refreshing lemon sorbet, and a giant tiramisu that's big enough for a crowd. My only small complaint is that guests pack their own leftovers. At this level, I think the staff should handle that. Otherwise, everything was fantastic. We'll definitely be back!

For cocktails, I had the white sangria and my husband had the berry mojito. Both drinks were refreshing and well balanced, too pretty to drink! For tapas, we shared empanadas (angus beef, shrimp & chorizo, organic chicken), a tale of two countries (burrata, eggplant agrodolce, serrano ham) and land & sea (NY strip & sea scallops). We loved them all, so delicious and flavorful. For our entrees, we had the churrasco (char-grilled black angus skirt steak) and pollo gitano (organic chicken thighs, sweet sausage, hot cherry peppers). Also very good and beautifully presented, the pollo gitano had a little kick to it. For dessert, we had the churros con chocolate and flan, very tasty and perfect to end our dinner. Great date spot or casual outing with friends. You won't be disappointed. I'll absolutely be back.

Located within the Ridge Hill courtyard space (#1), it is one of the only Mexican options in the area, which is only more helpful for their niche. Be it in the festive interior or the people-watching outdoor space, there is an excellent variety of dedicated spaces for groups big and small. They have TVs all along the interior showing sports and the bathrooms are clean. Service generally friendly, but a select few might be a it too invested in their phones. The food is Mexican'ish, but very little of it can be called authentic especially if they're serving empanadas, platanos, If it weren't obvious enough, this is not authentic Mexican food. Even calling it Mexican-inspired might be a tad of a reach, considering they also serve empanadas, tostones,, etc. Come for a good time, but don't make it about tacos and tequila. The food was expectedly a bit bland. There were some stale bits for large nachos, which had a good amount (perhaps, too much?) pico de gallo. Quesadillas were a very nice portion and good amount of stuffing. While I haven't tried their tacos, seeing as they put in copious amounts of lettuce, pico, and cotija cheese; I'm not particularly eager to do so. The enchiladas verdes was the priciest brunch option and certainly among the most hearty. The presentation was good and the chicken for the filling was the right choice. I was also able to grab some bites of the pancakes, which fared remarkably better. I now understand why avocado toast is an option on their brunch menu. I realize most folks are here for margaritas and a good time, but seeing as they're trying to also be a brunch option, I think folks might be better off focusing on the latter. __________ (#1) https://www.yelp.com/biz/ridge-hill-yonkers

I never had duck served this way. I really really enjoyed it. No one wanted a dessert so my grandson ordered espresso and I ordered a cappuccino. The waitress brought us thin slices of powdered sugar biscotti as a compliment. The ambience is quiet and cozy and dimly lit with an electric light on each table. On the menu it mentions like this restaurant is a sister location of Cafe Alia, also in Scarsdale. This was an excellent choice for Thursday night. You won't be disappointed.Sal E. New Rochelle
