Rank 42. La Bastide by Andrea Calstier
Modern French
A modern farmhouse in Westchester opens onto pastoral vistas where Chef Andrea Calstier and his wife Elena Oliver orchestrate an intimate tasting rooted in Provençal memory. Grilled gem lettuce meets poached celtuce and olive oil sabayon; squab arrives perfumed with rosemary and fig leaf. Dessert—chocolate and goat cheese—lands as a small, deliberate shock.

Rank 45. Cenadou
Modern French
A bright, plant-framed room lined with royal blue chairs and dark wood, where French bistro foundations meet Provençal sensibility. Poached vegetables arrive with warm aioli, lamb rack sits atop smoked eggplant purée, and the baba au rhum gets its theatrical finish tableside—traditions refined rather than abandoned.
-
Rank 46. The Inn at Pound Ridge
Contemporary New American
A Victorian inn set among manicured grounds draws the quietly affluent to Pound Ridge for contemporary cooking that leans on Jean-Georges signatures—tuna tartare sharpened with ginger and chili oil, salmon in corn-lime broth. The rustic setting belies a polished kitchen intent on refinement.

A white farmhouse on working farmland serves seafood anchored by ingredients grown, smoked, and cured steps away—seared scallops arrive with house-cured bacon and a fried egg, while pea martinis taste of the surrounding fields. The care extends to carrot bread and strawberry ice cream cake, each a small argument that prettiness and conviction need not be strangers.

New American
Dan Barber's tasting menu unfolds as a philosophical argument about sustainable agriculture, each plate showcasing vegetables and dairy from his own farm with austere elegance.

Central Asian
Mount Kisco locals crowd this Georgian kitchen for its rustic hospitality and the kind of food that feels both unfamiliar and instantly right.

Rank 76. Augustine's Salumeria
Modern Italian
Marc Taxiera's restaurant trades in the immediate bounty of Westchester—grass-fed beef stewed into mafalda, a grilled pork chop dusted with pecan ash—in a comfortable, unfussy space that doubles as a charcuterie counter. The Italian-leaning menu pivots on what's fresh, though the kitchen's nightly specials are where real choice becomes a problem.

Rank 94. Raasa
Indian
At Raasa, the menu traces a path through India's regional cuisines with precision and brightness: a bhel puri arrives as a calibrated play of sweet, spicy, and tart, while lamb curry achieves balance through tomato, onion, and subtle ginger against the soft give of garlic naan and cooling raita. Kulfi falooda—threaded with vermicelli and rose—closes the meal with deliberate charm.
-
Rank 95. Café Alaia
Italian
At Café Alaia in Scarsdale, exposed beams and a double-height ceiling frame two long, narrow rooms that hum with easy conversation. House-made tortellini float in silken chicken broth; salmon arrives pan-seared with mustard sauce and market vegetables. It's the kind of Italian cooking that trades novelty for the comfort of things done well.
-
Rank 96. Mint Premium Foods
Mediterranean
A gourmet market bleeds into dining room along a deep Tarrytown storefront, where exposed brick and antique scatter set the stage for Mediterranean cooking that favors hearty seafood and seared beef.
