Many menu items and daily specials. All were very good. We went on a Sunday- the place was crowded and very noisy. Service was good. Prices were ok. Would recommend this restaurant. Avoid getting a table by the bar.

When you consider all the elements that must coalesce for a meal to be great then this was a great eating experience. Firsts of all the location is superb, right on the shores of the Hudson River. Then the décor is light, elegant and very contemporary. The service was professional and spot-on; I would say it matched my European standards. And then, of course, was the food. The menu is very enticing but they have a $20 prix fix with a wonderful selection of options that really caught my attention. Had the grilled oysters, which were still sweet and moist and with a good amount of bacon, and then I had the fish of the day which was salmon. I just came back from Chile and, let me tell you, this fish was excellent in all respects. Without doubt this was a highlight meal ion the Hudson Valley area.

Hard to believe I am reviewing a chain restaurant but with a new travel schedule beginning 1/1/19 I find myself in Newburgh every other week and eat dinner here each time. New York Strip is my default meal, sometimes filet mignon and tonight's dinner was Napa Grilled Chicken which was outstanding. I am a tough critic when it comes to food and this location delivers every time!! Well done!!

We had just come from a strenuous 3 hour hike on Storm King Mtn and drove into Beacon in need of some refreshment. Max's was the first place we stumbled on from where we parked. Midafternoon on a Monday, there were a few customers at the bar and one large party. They had a large TV showing some tennis and inexpensive beers. We also did order some hummus and pita. Prices were low, service was very slow with only one bartender/waitperson on staff.

Traveling through and noticed the full parking lot. Very efficiently run - got seated quickly. Many people were greeted by the host and cashier by name and welcomed back. I noticed a local law enforcement officer stop in to order (and pay!) for his take-out dinner. The usual diversity on the menu. Good size portion - I took half my meal home. Soups are excellent! Kids menu was a full page with photos and a description of each choice.

We went to Homespun Foods for a late afternoon meal after visiting Dia:Beacon. I had an excellent Greek salad (although it could have used more Feta cheese) and my husband had an enormous tuna salad sandwich, also excellent. Nice portion sizes and reasonable prices. It was a beautiful day, so we enjoyed eating in the courtyard behind the cafe.

We met my brother and my sister in law for dinner in Beacon. After reading the menu on line they thought this restaurant was interesting. When you read the menu you really think it might be. We ordered two appetizers, not really made for sharing. We had the kreplach and the crab meat appetizers, neither was extraordinary. I had the pork sausage patties made in a Thai style, with lettuce wraps. It was served in a bowl, I didn't know why. It didn't really taste of Thai spice and it was just okay.. My wife had the steak and it was over done, she told the waitress but she wasn't too enthusiastic about doing anything about it. My brother and his wife had the salmon, they said it was okay. The prices are relatively high for the area and the food is just average. I think sometimes your expectations are too high for the restaurant. I don't think we will be back.

We grew up on Orange Lake and remember this place as O'Malley's Bar. The owners have kept the feel of the old place while updating and creating a clean, airy atmosphere. The views are gorgeous, the food and service is excellent.There are old photographs on the walls from the lake from before I was born.The downside is that it took my brother and I three tries to catch it on a day it was open for lunch, so call ahead for hours.

Great spot for lunch; we sat outside 3 of the 4 times we dined here over the last two months. Popovers are delicious; lobster bisque was excellent; double burger was huge; spinach ravioli was very good; we really enjoyed the crab cakes; chocolate pecan pie was a great way to end the meal. We had brunch 3 times; the belinis should be included with the brunch price.Service was excellent each time. Servers were always accommodated each request with a smile.Great place to have lunch while viewing the spectacular view of the Hudson River.
