Good food, good prices, service is ok.... Seafood is all fresh, and portions are good. One negative thing is the patio.... We ate outside and the son killed us, the umbrellas are stationary and do not turn... More

We had a large family gathering - 22 people. Pat and Candice were wonderful host and server. Our family found the food perfect for our early lunch time (noon-12:30p) -- we all ordered pub-type entrees and apps. Candice did a great job handling our crowd single-handedly. Good conversation -- good food choices -- great beer choices on tap! More

I went there for dinner with my parent and 2 children (ages 5 and 7) and I was very dissappointed. I will start with the positive. The location and views are excellent. The food was very good, except for 2 exceptions. My daughters mac and cheese was obviously finished way before the rest of the food. The top was dry... More

This restaurant is located with a great view of the Hudson River. The decor is a little worn, however the food is very good. We had lunch and the price was within the normal. There is outside dining and I would recomend the upper level for the best views. More

We visted this restaurant after riding our bikes from Highland via the Walkway Over the Hudson Bridge. We locked them to a bike rack on the Poughkeepsie side and walked to the River Station Restaurant. It's a short walk and my granddaughter enjoyed seeing the railroad station on our way. We sat on the outside patio at a front row... More
