Restaurants in Stony Point

Inside Las Margaritas, eye-catching Mexican folk art and a bar with deep-blue tiles surround patrons digging into sizzling fajitas and spicy enchiladas. In the kitchen, chefs whip up such south-of-the-border specialties as ceviches, pollo mole poblano, and steak monterrey. Bartenders complement the complex, sometimes spicy flavors of these feasts with tangy margaritas, sweet sangria, and beer.

Las Margaritas also encompasses an expansive patio, where guests can take in views of the Hudson while dining in the sunlight or taking shelter beneath umbrellas that block out bright rays and falling satellites.

The Lynch family history in the East Coast restaurant industry dates back to the early 1930s. With Prohibition coming to an end, Patrick Lynch opened the Riverside Grill on 125th and Broadway. Since then, Patrick's ancestors have carried on what is now a family tradition, establishing eateries in Congers and Tomkins Cove. Their latest edition, Lynch's Restaurant in Stony Point, does what the Lynch family has done for nearly a century: fills empty bellies with carefully prepared, slowly cooked American dishes, ranging from pastas and seafood to succulent steaks and Angus beef burgers.

Persimmon-hued umbrellas line Hudson Water Club’s outdoor patio, where visitors dine along the picturesque Hudson River. In the kitchen, executive chef Michael Dobias tailors his lunch and dinner menus to the season’s fresh produce, adding Italian flair to dishes ranging from almond-crusted tilapia to wild mushroom gnocchi. An Italian-built wood-fired oven cooks pizzas in three minutes or less at temperatures over 800 degrees, creating lightly-charred pies topped with house-made tomato sauce, thin slices of prosciutto, and mozzarella.

Guests can also admire the river views from the indoor dining room, where floor-to-ceiling windows offer river views. During the weekend, you could catch a musical performance over from local DJs, bands, or champagne flutes filled to varying heights.

The grills at Pomona Chophouse stay busy searing everything from burgers and T-bones to St. Louis–style ribs and salmon fillets. The chefs manning these grills also whip up appetizers to be shared in the family-friendly dining room. Wines from California, Italy, South America, and Down Under complement the upscale plates, and specialty martinis come in dessert-y incarnations such as caramel apple and key-lime pie.

Sue's Sunset House's line of culinary wizards dispenses hearty portions of homemade pub grub and sandwiches concocted from scratch. Bountiful burgers, hot and cold wraps, and fresh salads satiate patron palates alongside a build-your-own sandwich option that supplies diners with breads, cold cuts, cheeses, and a construction crew for assembly assistance. Feasters can relish the fresh air from an outdoor patio or curl up by an indoor fireplace and gaze upon a stunning view of the Hudson River. In addition to a fully stocked bar, Sue's Sunset House screens sporting contests and Nintendo Wii games on its 42-inch flat-screen plasma television and hosts live entertainment every weekend.
