This was one of the best restaurants that I have ever been to. Honestly not my style of folk who frequent the place but the food was out of this world. Polo playing, waspy doctor types hang out here. It makes sense since one bowl of soup cost $16.
If you have money to burn and really want to experience some fantastic flavors eat at this place. -

The restaurant is closed. It seems it's only open as a catering facility now. RIP!

This is one of the places that should be at the top of everyone's list.
BUT, it's way too erratic in taste and finish. I've had a long meal with a group of serious eaters. It was a high end set menu. The ideas were very impressive. They were able to snatch defeat out of the jaws of victory.
I couldn't believe how they could screw up continuously with such talent and skill. I was flat out disappointed and still am with their food. I'v e driven past many times and never stopped again. It's good, but it's not $75 good. -

We wish to say this was one of our all-time favorite restaurants for ambience, fresh & meticulous food selecton, attention to detail, spectacular preparation, taste, and presentation. Chef/owner John novi has been a caring culinary artist for 40 years.
It is therefore sad to see that once again greed in our financial sectors has contributed to his, hopefully temporary, demise :(

I've gone here twice for restaurant week. The service is good while the food can be mixed. I found the entrees to be stellar while the appetizers have been appetizers have been mixed. Make sure you go on a night that the head chef is working, otherwise you'll miss out on their chocolate souffle. Oh, and their grapefruit/orange/lemon citrus water (they have slices of each fruit on the bottom of the water pitcher) is delightfully refreshing.

This is my favorite restaurant in all of NY. Period. I can't believe it hasn't received rave reviews across the board. True, you wait for the food - but that just gives you more time to enjoy the quaint, homey ambiance and savor each bite that you KNOW is cooked (or baked) just for you. This Depuy perfectly balances a warm friendly atmosphere and staff who aren't stuffy with a menu and presentation that are as good as it gets. The ingredients are incredible fresh and combined in excited and unexpected ways. It is worth every mile of the drive from NYC - and then some.

I think this place is very inconsistent and for the money I will no longer play spin the wheel. The owner seems to have a huge problem keeping staff and I have never seen the same people there twice. I once saw a bartender quit on the spot after a yelling match with the owner. Very expensive and not always good. The one consistent plus: beautiful building.

Amazing soups and appetizers, although pumpkin soup heavy on the cream. Vegetarian entrees were a little dry (esp. quinoa cake). Innovative menu. Great old fancy tavern feel. Waiters very friendly knowledgeable and attentive.

After all the reviews I read I was so excited to try this place out. I made reservations ahead of time. My boyfriend and I had decided to go climbing in the Gunks after a business trip in Boston. The morning of the reservation (granted it was a sunday) I got a call that said they would not be opening up the upstairs because of limited reservations but I could eat downstairs with a limited menu. Since I am from SF I decided that would be a great way to taste the dishes. We were seated in the basement where most people were having pizza. The waitresses are over worked and have hardly enough time for each table. They don't have enough menus so you have to wait till someone else is done. I told the waitress my dilema and that I really wanted to try the food of the main dinning area. She assured me that the chef that was staffed tonight is one of the main chefs that works upstairs. We ordered from the limited menu to find out a few of the more popular items were not made this week. OK.... When the rest of the food came I was completely disappointed. It was no better than Denny's and not very creative. The sauce for the fish tasted like thousand island dressing. The food was bland and not worth your while if you are a foody and very expensive for what you got. If you want pizza this is the place. The sushi is nothing spectacular from what we saw on the menu. Better restaurants in New Paltz. This was suppose to be a special night out and turned out to be horrible.

After an amazing experience here 2 years ago I was really excited to come again, but I have to say that this place is just not the same. The waitstaff was completely clueless about the menu as if he had never eaten any of it. He recommended the "Carrot Pasta Reel" and it was the most horrid meal ever. It was supposed to be a pasta dish, but was about 90% ricotta cheese (cold) and in a bolognese sauce that was so salty I could barely eat it. I have no idea why it has supposedly won a "Hudson Valley Blue Ribbon" award. I have to think that something has gone wrong as this recipe got handed down from the original chef. I had a nive fois gras appetizer, and the biscuits were still the fresh, delicious biscuits I remember, but our main meails (my husband had the burger which would have been a standard burger at any place we went to) left us wondering why we came in the first place. If people come here reading that it's a James Beard award winner and 4 star NYT restaurant like I did, then that means delivering on the expectation of something more than good pizzas and burgers. Come here to see the tavern because it's a historical landmark. Not for the food.
