The Best Restaurants in Tarrytown, by the Record

Freshly pulled radishes arrive with browned butter before you've looked at a menu, which tells you everything about what Dan Barber is doing at this two-Michelin-starred tasting room on a working farm in the Hudson Valley. The procession that follows is theatrical and farm-obsessed, rooted in whatever the land is doing right now. Crisped linens, fine crystal, and a meal that could end with a tower of milk desserts, because the farm started as a dairy.

Dale Talde's Hong Kong-style restaurant sits inside a carriage house on a sprawling Hudson Valley estate, where the dining rooms look like someone inherited very good furniture and actually kept it. The menu runs kung pao wings alongside bao stuffed with crispy shrimp and daikon, the kind of cooking that's both nostalgic and quietly restless. Dressy-casual crowd, unhurried pace, and a setting that makes Tarrytown feel like a reasonable destination.

Grilled dates stuffed with goat cheese and prosciutto sit on the menu alongside burgers and charcuterie, which tells you most of what you need to know about this Tarrytown gastropub. It doubles as a gourmet market, so the front is stocked with food from around the world and the back opens into exposed brick and antique odds and ends. The kitchen roams the Mediterranean, landing on hearty seafood and steaks.
