Best Casual Restaurants in Chappaqua

Christmas Eve dinner there was superb!! The menu was great , the room was beautiful. For such a busy day, the service was spot on. A very well run establishment. They had many reservations that night but we were not rushed and had a perfect evening!! Compliments to the organization!

What a place! Who knew? History, lovely setting, delectable food. Really made for a perfect Christmas Eve lunch. Hidden gem!!!

Vida was packed last night. 💃🏻 This is a brand new restaurant in Thornwood by the talented husband and wife duo at Augustine’s in Mamaroneck… Brianne Myers and Marc Taxiera. I love them as humans and am in awe of what they do as creatives/restauranteurs. I was worried about this newest endeavor only because their presence, in addition to incredible food, is such an integral part of Augustine’s success. How will they be able to nurture this baby as beautifully as their first? After visiting last night with a few friends, I no longer have any fears. Vida has been open a month and it felt like it had been operating successfully for years. I am neck deep in Christmas everything, but I am just so happy for Brianne and Marc, but also for Westchester. We needed some new “Vida” around these parts. Will def include comments under the photos. One more thing… omg the food. Oh and the glassware. and the patio that we will all enjoy in the Spring! ok… gotta go! So many gorgeous details.

The quality of the food is matched by the excellent and caring service. Always a great experience!

We always love dining at Jardin. This visit was no exception; even though the service was unusually spotty, they were very busy, so we blame that. Overall, you can’t go wrong here for a nice dinner or casual lunch and everything in between.
