New American Restaurants near Hopewell Junction, NY

“A stop here will definitely not disappoint. We had an incredible waitress which sets the tone for a good meal. We started with the beer pretzels followed by a salad with chicken and a carne burrito. The burrito was definitely loaded with steak that was seasoned to perfection. It was large enough to bring some home for a second meal which is exactly what I did!“

“What a lovely lunch we had here yesterday. We just happened to be in the area and happened upon this place. There was a warm welcome immediately at the front door by a man who turned out to be the owner. From there on, the lunch was perfect in every way. Delicious, fresh, good portions. Added grilled chicken to my salad and it came on the side nicely sliced to add in. Grilled chicken should not be complicated but a lot of places are serving weird rubbery chicken, or overcooking it. This was perfection. It's just a chicken breast but I promise you it was not your average chicken. I live an hour away and I swear anytime I am remotely in that direction, I am going back! Thank you, Jim, and all your staff! Keep doing what you are doing. My wine review to follow! ?“

“We went looking for a gluten free lunch and they had a great menu strictly for celiacs. The place smelled like heaven and the food was great. The people were very friendly too. All in all highly recommendDietary restrictions: They had a gluten free and vegan menu.“

“What an amazing place. Selected it as a venue for a gathering of friends as an upstate/downstate geo midpoint. Food was unbelievably amazing (ordered off appetizer menu, late night menu, but the whole menu looked great), hosts Russ & Helga were warm welcoming and friendly, live music from Ethan Levy was perfect, every server and bartender were top notch. We will definitely be back. This is a rare Hudson Valley jewel that I am so glad we found.“

“Our experience was pleasant. The food was delicious and presented exceptionally. Appetizers and main dishes were served hot and great presentation. Drinks were perfect as well as the dessert choices. Dessert, coffee and after meal drinks just added to the whole meal and dining experience. Definitely will recommend and return soon.“

“Excellent local casual restaurant. We’ve only been here twice in the past five years, mostly recently March 2024. This past visit we had the steak cafe salad, which was delicious. We also split the garlic bread, which was a very smart inventive take on it, cubing the pieces which made it much more enjoyable of a bite rather than ripping apart or gnawing away at a big loaf. Service was friendly and timely. Cute place and nice atmosphere. Nicely located by the restaurants and shops.“

“Googled a good sports bar and this was the number one option. It's a indoor golf/whiskey bar more than a sports bar but drinks are good and cheap. The kitchen messed up my food order but it was still good so I won't knock any points off. The bartender and staff were super friendly and welcoming. I'll come back for sure.“

“What's not to love? This Wappingers spot is right in town, they serve up tasty food, quality beverages, and the staff will treat you well. The bar is quite nice, and definitely clean. Even better, when it's nice outside, there's an adorable back deck that's perfect for sipping a cider, or one of their serious selection of craft beers on tap. There are also cocktails available, but they seem to truly care about the tap selection. Right now they've got a 16% ABV stout out of Brooklyn on tap, which is downright dangerous. This seems like the rare bar that not only fries things well, but it also cares about the rest of its menu too. No one is ever sad about bang bang shrimp and chicken fingers and fries (we order like adults around here), but the salads are very solid as well. There are even vegetarian and vegan options for your friends who aren't quite as meaty (technical term). And that's all I have to say about that.“

“We ordered takeout on the Slice App. A worker from Fusion called me because I forgot to indicate how I'd like my steak cooked. I appreciated the call! Our food was ready on time and it was fresh and delicious. The restaurant is clean and nicely styled. We plan to go out to eat at the Fusion Tavern in the near future. It's nice to have a local gem like this!“

“Monday night Prime Rib was amazing. Im a salt-o-holic i didn't need salt on my prime rib it was perfect when dipped in the sauce. Service well everyone knows everyone in the place a true local pub. But duper friendly staff. Felt like you could just belong here if you wanted to. Lots of cool decor!“

“Needed a quick stop for some good food on a long drive from CT to the Cakskills. Something better than the usual chains. My girlfriend found Eleven 11 online and we are pleased she did. Stopped by late afternoon - just a few minutes off I-84. Service was friendly, helpful and attentive. The food was great - I had the steak sandwich and she had the tuna tartare and fries. Drinks were reasonable, and the atmosphere was quiet and relaxing. A perfect stop. I would dine here again.Dietary restrictions: Plenty of variety and good with allergies.Parking: Parking right behind the restaurant“
