Best Brunch Restaurants in West Point

Le Monde, a long-time resident of Morningside Heights, was full of festivity and rich, French food on Christmas. The pinot noir was top-notch. My guy had escargot, followed by a duck main course, and I had the salmon over spinach with a sauce I can't remember before we shared a chocolate mousse. We're glad we went early, because a lot of time for digestion was required. Our only criticism was that the guitar-player who sang wonderful tunes, mostly in French, was amplified, and we could barely hear each other. Minus the amplification, this would have been a plus, and I'm sure it was only for the holiday. The staff was welcoming and attentive, and we'd do it again.

Feast of the Seven Fishes, the elevated version was delicious! The three Mike’s really made it the perfect evening. Anastacio is the top chef in town for sure and he raised the bar again. The wine pairings with this tasting menu were perfectly chosen. And the service top notch & personnable. 4 hour dinner with each course spaced out perfectly. Not inexpensive but we were definitely given our moneysworth.

The food was wonderful, buffet style, so some items were not piping hot. The ambience is great, the service was wonderful. Christmas Eve at Restaurant 1915/The Bear Mtn. Inn will be a new tradition.

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

We had a lovely lunch at the Thayer. The fried chicken was expertly seasoned and the best I've had. Crunchy where it should be and juicy and tender inside. The Cole slaw was just right. Great snap to the fries. The other dish was the Chicken Salad club. Hit every mark and totally enjoyed it. We also ordered the soup of the day and the only mishap was it was brought out not piping hot. A quick word to the waiter and the soup was retuned and the temperature was corrected. In fairness, most restaurants never serve piping hot soup, which they should. We had a view of the Hudson and the ambiance of the hotel and restaurant is old world elegance. The price was very reasonable for the quality and quantity of food. We will definitely go back. It would be a fabulous place to watch the autumn colors. Next time.
