Restaurants in Kingston

“This is our go to bar every time we visit from Florida. Amazing craft cocktails without the pretentiousness of other craft cocktail bars. Friendly owner/host Paul as well as his staff. Warm chill vibe and eclectic music selection. Also a nice selection of light snacks/finger food. Definitely a must visit when you’re in Kingston.”

“Best little place in the world!”

“We stopped in there to try it and we’re not disappointed. Excellent cold brew and the breakfast sandwiches were some of the best I’ve had, definitely will be going back”

“A real home cook meal! Can I tell yuh! No where better than yard”

“We recently ordered a birthday cake from Sweet Maresa’s for a special celebration in our office, and we were blown away! Not only did they kindly squeeze in our order on short notice, but the cake was absolutely incredible — flavorful, unique, and beautifully made. Everyone at the firm agreed Sweet Maresa’s is a true gem in Uptown Kingston, and we can’t recommend them enough! — The Team at Basch & Keegan”

“Great coffee, great service, attentive atmosphere”

“My wife Donna and I just enjoyed a fabulous Valentines Day dinner at Downtown Cafe. We have enjoyed Graziano's culinary artistry for 30 years now, (since the days of Mary Ps), and he just keeps getting better. My wife had the shortribs, and I had the sushi grade tuna with mushrooms and we enjoyed every bite. The service and atmosphere are the best. I would highly recommend the Downtown Cafe for a delicious, relaxing meal and great hometown atmosphere.”

“Amazing wine selection (Beer and Cicer too) and unique foods. Their Cheese plate is scrumptious. The owners are so lovely and the atmosphere is chic. It's a great place to gather with a few friends.”

“Great local brewery right in the middle of it all yet, secretly blending in with the neighborhood! Have an organic beer palette on your tongue and enjoy the unique Kingston microbrew 🍺🍻”

“Best place in Kingston for a drink and/or dinner! We recently moved to the area and have visited Mirador a few times, each time was incredible. We now bring any friends or family who visit here! Also, love that they serve chips with their vermouth. Great little snack at the end of a long day.”

“It's our "Cheers"!! It's our go-to option for our weekly Date Nite!”

“Braved temps in the 20’s, snowy/icy roads last evening to enjoy Taco Tuesday! Had the blackened scallop tacos… they were were absolutely outstanding! Always generous portions, the freshest ingredients, the nicest staff, and reasonable prices! Brava and Bravo! ❤️🌮❤️🌮👏👏👏👏👏 Thank You Santa Fe Uptown!”

“Top shelf!!! We had a group of 17 for lunch. Everyone raved about the excellent food and the wonderful and friendly service. Our menu included London Broil, Salmon, Ceasars Salad with Chicken and Vegetable Quiche with side salad. We had a variety of servings. Everything was sooooo good! Best restaurant in Kingston. We couldn't have chosen a better place.”

“Went for a birthday dinner. Service and servers were outstanding. Lovely ambiance and quiet thought to be fair we were there very early evening. Oue sausage appetizer was delicious and a 5. I was slightly disappointed with the half roasted duck. It may be I am spoiled as we have eaten duck all over the world and the best duck I have had, the skin was crispy little to no fat with moist meat below. My duck dish though tasty did not have a crispy skin and the breast meat was somewhat dry. Dessert was classic apple taste and is was good. Overall good experience.”

“Another fantastic meal Front Street Tavern!! Fabulous food (bang-bang shrimp and smash burger my favs, but constantly evolving menu) Staff and owners top notch! So fortunate for Kingston. Do yourself a favor and check it out!!”

“I got engaged there on 7/22/23!! The grounds are spectacular! The only thing that is a bummer is the local beach that’s close, they were blasting music at night and the bass was very loud on our side of the river. It eventually stopped but was very noisy!”

“This cafe is a gem. Not only does the cafe have great food but I especially love the carefully curated specialty items, grab and go meals and family style takeaways for those busy days and catering options to making hosting a breeze. Quality and convenience.”

“My son says this is the only place to get great crispy tofu,not like the mushy stuff he gets elsewhere. And it was delicious crispy tofu, and everything else we tried was excellent, very relaxing, and great people. I've been craving food like this and this is it.”

“Cool atmosphere, good coffee and really tasty sandwiches!”

“Friendly, competent staff who all work together. Amazing sushi. Make reservations!”

“The restaurant was picked by our friends who had been there before, and wanted to enjoy it with us.
I had the Pork schnitzel special and my wife had shrimp on linguine special . The Pork schnitzel was very delicious while the shrimp specials had very few shrimp that made it a bit disappointing for her.
The staff was very attentive and friendly which made it a pleasant experience anyway. I would probably go back and order a different entree next time.

Kid-friendliness: Kids menu available”

“This is the only place I will get Chinese food from and I can’t believe it took me so long to find it. I usually get onion fried rice and broccoli and it’s always so good”

“Love this place!

I enjoy the eggs Benedict, the burgers, the salads, the Mac and cheese balls, the kvd fries, sandwiches/wraps are good!

This place is more than the sum of its parts, and head and shoulders better than your typical diner experience!”

“First thing I noticed was the beautiful engraved door. Very friendly atmosphere. We were offered drinks while waiting to be seated for dinner. I had a coconut margarita which was amazing! I normally don’t drink margaritas. The guacamole was so fresh! Delicious! My husband and daughter loved the calamari! My husband got the Casa Villa Seafood, he was in heaven! The portions were large we left with two bags of food. The staff from start to finish were really impeccable! 10 out of 10. We will be returning!”

“everything thing is delicious. the people are all awesome”

“Just ordered for the first time and we will go back!! Shrimp tacos were amazing and salsa and guacamole were amazingly fresh!! Highly recommend!”

“We are from California and got in late and hungry. Ordered a marghertti pizza, Hawaiian regular and gluten free. Everything was delicious. They kept doors open after they closed to fix a pizza order for us. Great customer service.
Everything was so good we ate there again the last night of our vacation.”

“Amazing food ! Sweet staff and beautiful dining . Loved the lunch menu so delicious.Highly recommend to try lunch . We will be coming back for dinner with the whole family .”

“very good food and good staff”

“Delicious food and great service!”

“So many community members, businesses, friends & family, came together to support the Gribbon family in their recent renovation at the new location. The new High Falls Cafe is beautiful! It has the same welcoming atmosphere as its previous location, but this is so much better! Food and service are great, and they have been very busy since opening a few weeks ago. If you want to ensure that you can get a table, make a reservation in advance!”

“Usually offers good bread. But is very wishy washy on their "old bread sales" prices. If it's a day old it should be discounted - period. (I have worked for almost four years in a bakery) This is being aggregated by the fact that I was not notified of this pricing structure when I asked for day old bread (with the specific intend to get a discount for something that is not fresh and won't last me as long). Had I been informed about this, I would have just bought the same bread *fresh* - for the *same price*. I feel that the omission of this fact is even done purposely to mislead customers.”

“Eclectic place. A cross between an old Irish pub and kind of almost a modern day hip hop club.

Good beers, Super Kitty was exceptional. Good service. Stop in”

“Insane egg sandwich. She asked me if I wanted my hash browns on the side or in the sandwich. MY HEART.”

“I have had the pleasure of tasting the dill potato salad twice. I can say it is far surpassed my expectations and I look forward to having it again.”

“Ate here Oct. 6. Never been here before and I wish I did. Probably the cheapest prices for ice cream/sundaes I've seen in the HV region.
I got a medium sundae with cherry soft serve and it was very good.
Cashier and workers are friendly and fast.
Definitely will come back”

“Love the food! Cute restaurant, has a parking lot, and the service is excellent! I love the cactus burrito bowl and the guacamole is delicious. It’s like being back in Southern California.”

“Wowowowow the food was soo tasty! I ordered the combination plate of platanos con crema, frijoles y taco de pollo QUE RICO also several pupusas that were all so flavorful and filling. I loved the picked onion and cabbage that comes with them. This is my new spot!!”

“A very successful example of the connection between imagination to palate to plate. The dishes are consistent and impressive, perfectly executed. Thematic use of produce while rotating the menu frequently. A true gem with the highest accolades in its future, surely. Don't skip on eating here.”

“First time there and will definitely be back!!!”

“Amazing! Hit the spot for an Indian street food craving.”

“I love the food here!!!!!!”

“Great hamburger and tater Tots. Intimate performance space in the back.”

“Employees were very friendly and helpful!
Restaurant was clean and well lit. Only complaint is the price of the food. What happened to the days of the $5.00 meal?
A whopper alone is now $8.00!!! Won't be going back anytime soon. At these prices, I can go to an actual restaurant, sit down and be served.”

“The food amazing 💯💯💯 Egg rolls , THE BEST 🤗 they change them up every week or so . I havent had one i didnt like Sooooo Good 💯💝 Its so cozy and cute inside , you feel right at home They have a great selection of menu items to choose from The management AKA owner & staff see to every detail . You will never leave unhappy or hungry . Not one detail in this lovely place is missed 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 Try brunch is amazing with unique menu item To choose from This is not food you will find anyplace else”

“Amazing hosts and great food.”

“I asked them for salsa to dip my chips in and they asked me what I meant by salsa. I described salsa and they told me it was in the bag, but it wasn't. But like what do you mean, what do I mean by salsa?! Did you think I was asking for marinara?

The tacos were standard, the other restaurants nearby have similar. But like... Salsa. Probably going to a restaurant that knows what salsa is in the future instead. 🤦”

“Great place to get you’re coffee drink. Fast friendly courtesy.😁”

“really good burger joint 😋 can't get any better than moonburger”

“This is one of the cleanest and best laid-out McD's I have been to. It's a great location in this particular area to have breakfast and get organized for the day or before moving on to nearby shopping. Best bathroom (clean)!”

“Fast Friendly Service and delicious bagels! Just a bit disappointed with the sandwiches - I have tried a few from Bacon Egg Cheese to Rueban etc and they have been so light on the meat like a few thin slices, tiny bit of cheese etc. mostly all bread :( I will keep ordering the wonderful bagels just not the sandwiches.”

“Mostly good. Sometimes, they mess up the order, but less than most fast food places.

Dietary restrictions: We have a milk allergy in the household so we must order with no cheese. They get it right 9 out of 10 times”

“Nice and cozy place to sit and have a cup of coffee. For some reason floor and counter are always dirty in this place when I visit it, but it’s not that bad.
Staff is always nice and friendly.
I like this place.”

“One of my favorite places to enjoy great coffee, events, amazing food and even better people. We love our Kingston community and we love you CAMP!! So grateful you are here ???”

“food is delicious the workers is clean and polite a must have when you want authentic REAL food.”

“They give back to the community and are passionate and very knowledgeable about issues they support.”

“This past weekend we had our son’s birthday catered by Salamone's Italian Foods. The food was delicious and the price was even better. We ordered a 1/2 tray of chicken francese, penne alla vodka, sausage and peppers and a tossed salad. The chicken francese was thin and tender and the francese sauce was a perfect lemony, velvet consistency. Penevodka was so delicious it was a traditional vodka sauce that had an amazing flavor with little pieces of pancetta. Sausage and peppers were out of this world. The peppers and onions were fresh and not over cooked. The sausage had a mild/heat and was also very tender. Lastly the toss salad was fresh and beautifully made with cucumbers, fresh romaine lettuce, peppers and homemade croutons. Communication was a breeze, Annie is fabulous and gets back to you right away. She even delivered the food to our house! We will definitely be ordering with them again!!”

“Ordered a butterfly shaped cake for our little girls first birthday and we were blown away with how perfect it came out (and how delicious)!”

“Delicious food, friendly staff and atmosphere. Highly recommended”

“On a road trip, I found Terri's by googling delis. The Thanksgiving panini caught my eye. It was a GREAT sandwich. Travel buddies rated the Pastrami Reubin & Turkey Bacon Cheddar 5 stars also.”

“Amazing every time 😍Their soups, sandwiches and cookies are the BEST!!”

“I used to look forward to eating there. But the last two times I had the worst servers. One never came back to check after she dropped off my food. I had wanted a soda refill and another napkin, had to find her to get my check. Last night I came in and was told the kitchen was about to close so I needed to hurry up (I just sat down at about 9:25 pm). I ordered right away. An ice water and a coke and a meatball parm sub. I was lucky to get my soda with her attitude. No ice water was brought or acknowledged at all. I took a few bites of my food and she asked if I wanted a box. I was really irritated. If they told me to go only I would have been fine. But the way I was handled made me angry. I ate quickly and left. If I choose to get something again , it will be to go. Honestly, Caitlyn is the best server there. She is five stars. The others are not worth a dime.”

“Great people! , even better food 👌 👏”

“Fabulous meal and great service. Everything we had was made to order. Fresh and excellent. I look forward to going there the next time I come to the area. Had the soup, endive salad and chicken dish.”

“Cute spot. Good sandwiches. If you’re looking for really good homemade deli style sandwiches and dishes look no further. Great staff. It did take a bit of time for a takeout order but that’s because they make everything fresh. Try the specials especially the blackened chicken if they have it.”

“Pleasantly surprised how fresh the fruits, toppings and other products are. The owner was incredibly personable and made easy, flowing conversation. I am from the Albany area where Açaí/Pitaya Bowls are very popular— I was SO excited to learn about Turn Up The Beet right here on Broadway. 10/10 recommend.”

“So good! It’s my new favorite place for a quick meal. Tacos are fresh and the street corn in a cup is a must.”

“Delicious food and big portions”

“Popped in after hair cut. Vinnie and Jeff were friendly, worked well together, got my order quickly, and enjoyed the delightful banter. Clean, well maintained, I’ll be back!”

“We ate there today for lunch; the service was great and so was the food. We had a wonderful waitress named Unique and she seated us within two minutes. I ordered the fish and chips and my friend, the coconut shrimp. Very satisfying. So glad I did not let some bad reviews stop us from eating there.”

“The people here complaining about the General Tso chicken really need help, they make the best General Tso chicken around, it's always crispy and never had a problem with it, the people making the bad remarks I bet never ate there, they just post bad remarks.”

“Top shelf!!! We had a group of 17 for lunch. Everyone raved about the excellent food and the wonderful and friendly service. Our menu included London Broil, Salmon, Ceasars Salad with Chicken and Vegetable Quiche with side salad. We had a variety of servings. Everything was sooooo good! Best restaurant in Kingston.

“Ordered a butterfly shaped cake for our little girls first birthday and we were blown away with how perfect it came out (and how delicious)!”

“Picked up an awesome meal last night from here. I was amazed that everything was accounted for and they didn't skimp on anything. Was a very pleasant experience and the food was very good. Also very reasonably priced. The woman at the to go counter was very nice too. She does a good job. I wish I would've tipped more now, but now I know for next time. Most places always forget something or mess up something, but my dinner was spot on. My order was ready right on time as well.”

“really good burger joint 😋 can't get any better than moonburger”

“Best little place in the world!”

“My husband and I go there all the time. Foods great along with great service. Highly recommend it👏👏”

“I'm an RN, and work for the on call team at Hudson Valley Hospice. I cover Ulster County, and some evenings are very busy. On busy evenings, I only have time to stop for a bite to eat. Whenever I'm visiting patients in the Kingston area, I stop at (and look forward to) Picnic Pizza for a few slices. Nice people, and the best pizza around!”

“A real home cook meal! Can I tell yuh! No where better than yard”

“Great fish sandwich & tasty fried shrimp (their 'Tackle Box')! Service was good but a small language problem made for a minor problem when ordering. Atmosphere was ok too (it's a 'fast food' restaurant!).”

“I’ve struggled with finding really delicious wings in the area. It seems like Buffalo was the only place to go-until now. I was recommended to this place and I’m very happy with the quality of the wings. I had Thai and extra hot wings. The only thing is that the extra hot wasn’t hot at all to me. But that’s just me and that certainly doesn’t take away from the quality of the food and the excellent service. Next time I’ll just specify exactly how hot I want the wings. I highly recommend Hickory to anyone who is looking for delicious smoked food.”

“the corned beef hash and eggs are really good so is the right toast the ham dinners that are really good and also the roast beef dinners also good I recommend this place to anybody”

“My son (8) and I did Pickleball 101 and it was great. We both quickly saw how much fun pickleball can be. Noticed right away how clean, organized, and welcoming Dink was. Nice seating area for spectators as well. We will definitely be back.”

“We've loved their tamales at the farmers market, and the new restaurant has the same great tamales plus some other fun options. I loved the street corn and the kids appreciated the chips and guacamole. Prices were very reasonable and we will definitely be back.”
