Rank 1. La Bastide by Andrea Calstier
Modern French
A converted farmhouse in North Salem with sweeping views of actual countryside, which somehow makes the tasting menu feel earned rather than theatrical. This is a Michelin-starred modern French fine dining room with very few tables, run by a husband-and-wife team whose roots are in the south of France. The cooking is precise and quietly confident, and dessert gets its own moment to shine. Esquire named the Vesper martini among the finest in America, which is a strange fact about a farmhouse, and a good one.

Rank 2. Cenadou
Modern French
The name is Provençal for "dining room," which sets the tone pretty neatly for this modern French bistro tucked into the North Salem countryside. White walls, dark wood, royal blue chairs, and big windows full of trees give it the feel of somewhere you'd actually want to linger. The kitchen takes Provence-leaning classics and nudges them gently forward, finishing the baba au rhum tableside with a rum pour and Earl Grey whipped cream.
