Best Neighborhood Gem Restaurants in Poughkeepsie

The food was wonderful, buffet style, so some items were not piping hot. The ambience is great, the service was wonderful. Christmas Eve at Restaurant 1915/The Bear Mtn. Inn will be a new tradition.

Always great time and terrain so festive, service was a little slow waited 15 mins for a glass of Prosecco but it’s Christmas Eve, chicken Cesar salad was delicious. Will keep going back

We’ve been going to the Cookery since it opened in 2009. We have developed an emotional connection with the restaurant. And the outstanding food isn’t the only reason. Dave DiBari pours his heart ❤️ into every plate that leaves their small kitchen. You can sense the passion with the wait staff and the other diners. We love going there and enjoying the total experience that the Cookery offers.

Always a great experience when I eat at Red Hat!! Whether its sitting outside during the summer or celebrating with friends at our annual holiday dinner - we have had our friends holiday dinner at Red Hat every year...and it is our place. The food is great, it is so very beautiful, and the service is on point!!

Lovely Christmas luncheon with my staff. Beautifully decorated for the holidays with long-standing very attentive staff. Spinach pie is always a standout along with any fish. A wonderful leisurely lunch.
