    We’ve been customers for over 15 years and have always loved the food and never been disappointed. We bring all of our friends who have also become Terrapin fanatics as well. The pork chile nachos are life changing :)

    Consistency and quality every time! Outstanding food and service. Taco Tuesday is a superb night to experience their delicious cuisine. Santa Fe is my choice in Uptown Kingston for dining regularly. I've also eaten at the Rt. 28 location near Glenford. You just can't go wrong at either locale! Tatiana did an A+ job as did the entire staff at our last visit. Looking forward to next time already!

    The view is outstanding and the best of the Hudson Valley. Enjoy the river and wide open space under the shelter with heaters and fireplaces to keep it cozy. The Shakshuka eggs were over cooked but the tomato sauce was tasty and on point. Eggs Benedict was the winner at our table with the wood fired pizza coming in second place.
