Restaurants near Jacobus Van Wagenen Stone House

The Bocuse is one of my favorite restaurants in the NY /CT area. The food , service and ambiance are first rate. And having the students perform most of the services makes for an enjoyable experience. It’s worth the 70 mile drive for me !

Beautiful campus, architecture and culinary history surround you as you enter. The staff are culinary students who are genuine and professional throughout the evening. The service is top notch, friendly and timely. The meal was excellent highlighted by the most remarkable Parker House and Chibata rolls baked fresh on site. Highly recommend!

The braised lamb shank, duck, bread, and carafe of Cote du Rhone all exceeded expectations. Superb.

Arrived on time for our reservation, greeted warmly and seated promptly. Service, as always, was warm prompt efficient without being intrusive. Menu is always fantastic with great specials and offerings. Appetizers, main courses, desserts, all wonderfully done, fantastic wine list, cocktails well balanced and flavorful. Overall; another wonderful experience, which is why we continue to visit this restaurant often. Already looking forward to the next experience. 

As restaurant experiences go, this was one of our best of 2024. We came to the area for one evening and had been to this establishment under the prior owners a few years back. Your staff took it to another level and literally knocked it out of the park. Nikko served as both our bar tender and server and was outstanding. We are from Long Island and plan to return real soon. Bravo for an outstanding dining experience.
