Best Restaurants for Special Occasions in Rosendale

Patrick is literally dinner and a show. His knowledge of the menu, drinks and ability to match our preferences is amazing. All the servers are excellent and the food is the best in the area. This is our favorite.

I attended the Valentines Day Dinner with my children, and I called to see 3 days prior to Friday to see if a sub-menu for 1 child that is 10 year old would be available, and I was told there will be a "kids menu" with 3 options. A person called me back to verify with the chef there would be a sub-menu. I get there check in and was then told no that would not be available- My second child is grown so we only needed accommodations for 1 child. The server was rude ( Besty) and was unhappy with the request. I also added a note to the reservation to let them know i will have a child attending. The manager came over and I explained my situation and he was accommodating to the request which was great, but the service was hindered- My food was cold and the server was not diligent with checking in with us to see if we needed anything. Being that this was my first time at the Restuarant and heard great things about it i was very excited to attend, and it was horrible and disappointing experience.

We love Cellaio and go when we can. It’s our go to celebratory destination. The food is always delicious, the staff is wonderful, and the atmosphere is divine. We enjoy so many of the menu items…this time it was a salmon dinner and a superb steak. Our waiter was Tim. We’ve met him before, so it was lovely to see him again. He is attentive, polite, efficient, and funny!! Great experience this time, and everytime.

My hubby and I thoroughly enjoyed our extraordinary pre-Valentine’s Day lunch celebration! From the Black History Month-themed appetizer to classics like Escargot a la Bourguignonne and Cassoulet Toulousain, every bite was a revelation. We also enjoyed our conversations with our student servers whose attention and care was beyond professional. The perfect way to celebrate our love for food and each other!

Delicious as always- the don’t have the spoonbread this time which is our favorite but as usual it was fantastic. The Wagu burger was delicious as was the chicken. 10/10
