First time here. We sat at the and Kevin was pretty cool. He made good drinks had a good attitude about himself. The hostess at the front was very friendly. We just ordered a couple appetizers and a couple of martinis just to hang out for a little bit, it was definitely worth a while.

Steak Filet Mignon and Chicken Hibachi Combo

I loved my time here at Buddha. I've been to their other location at Ridge Hill which is also enjoyable but this one was better in my opinion. The decor here is great and the staff is always nice. They were amazing to my service pup, offered him many belly rubs and water. I felt very comfortable being there with him and am thankful for their treatment. My food was GREAT as always, the portions are balanced and I never have an issue with how it's cooked. I can't wait to come back! If you haven't tried this place yet you're missing out!

Came here randomly today and was pleasantly surprised. We did not make a reservation and the restaurant is quite spacious. We came at a random time so not many people here. There are multiple parking lots outside since it's in a plaza. We expected this to be very mediocre asian fusion food but it actually came out better than expected. We got the skewers, pork buns, and clear soup for appetizer and they were all quite good. We got orange chicken and pad thai for the main course and both were not bad, pad thai sauce was a little unconventional given the orange color but tasted fine. Overall the service was very efficient and attentive, the dishes came out fairly quickly. We live close so probably will be coming again. Decent place if you are looking for hibachi and asian fusion.

Came in for a quick bit to eat before the movies. Got the Lady Gaga sushi with no tobiko. Absolutely the best! Will definitely be back....next time to get 2...yummers!

Maria B.

The bartenders very nice and friendly. She will help you decide on what to drink or eat. The roses are very good. The fried rice is undercooked. As I'm sitting here at the bar, I watch a waitress dip her fingers in someone's drink to get the lychee fruit that she dropped in it. Now she's staring at me as I'm recording her. No gloves on just pure nasty!! I will be reporting this!

Galapagos Roll, Play Boy Roll, Out of Control Roll

Sushi is basically my whole personality. So I was surprised to find out that this Asian fusion restaurant in Dobbs Ferry has really great rolls. I mean look how beautiful these rolls are! Pictured: Splendid Roll, Spicy Girl Roll, Galapagos Roll, Playboy Roll, Out of Control Roll, and Leo Roll. Restaurant is really spacious, but I typically opt for takeout/delivery. A couple points off because the staff isn't really attentive to customers and give off a "I don't want to be here" attitude.

Ahh it's been some time since I've eaten here. I love that they have such a variety on the menu. You can get sushi, a noodle dish or one of many more options. I usually default to my favorite, which is the pad Thai because it's probably my favorite place that makes it. It tastes exactly the way I like it. Some places have a very sweet sauce but this pad Thai has a perfect balance. Now let's talk about the decor. It just has a really nice, festive vibe inside. The experience is really immersive and the staff does a great job. I particularly enjoy sitting toward the back. There's an area with rounded booths that is a little secluded and feels somewhat private. It's a perfect place for a get together with family or friends.

Any outdoor seating?

Yes, they have plenty.

Do you need reservations?

Walk-ins are accepted

Gluten free options?

Hi Rachel, We can certainly prepare certain items on our menu gluten-free upon request! If you have specific dietary restrictions, please advise your server or the manager.

Is this spot owned by the same folks as the Little Buddhas in Ridge Hill and Palisades malls? The menu is quite similar but looks larger here in Dobbs Ferry. Also, is there a regular happy hour?

Hi Luther, This establishment is under the same name chain, however, it is like a franchise. It is… 

I see Hibachi entrees on the menu but don't see any Hibachi tables (where your meal is cooked in front of you) in any photos. Does this restaurant have Hibachi tables? Thanks!

This location does not have the teppanyaki tables where there is a performance, however the Hibachi entrees are listed in the menus as they are prepared in the kitchen.

Do they take reservations, and if so, do they take reservations online? I couldn't find their website (other than for takeout ordering)...

Hi David! To address your question, yes we do take reservations, however we do not take any online…

I got a great exclusive prefix menu for my Princesses day! I was able to make some changes and I tell you what I spent per person with my family was a fair price. The food was absolutely amazing. I'm sorry I don't have many food photos because I was trying to be in the moment! But I will be back and will try the patio which I had really hoped for for my party but there was another private party or large and we were upstairs but my girl said it gave her the bday vibe she wanted. We had reservations for 7p, I got there early and everyone welcomed us anyway and sat us immediately no waiting until your whole party arrives. We had amazing drinks, bread, family style apps the Burrata and the meatballs to die for! We all mixed between spicy rigatoni, seafood linguine frute de mar, filet Mignon, branzino, it was all amazing and I'm drooling as I type! Please give this place a try if you haven't because the service is 10 and food 10

Had an early dinner at La Lanterna and absolutely loved it. The outdoor patio is beautiful--lush,…read moreshaded, and feels like a hidden escape rather than Yonkers. The baked clams and mussels were outstanding, and the crusty bread was perfect for soaking up every drop of sauce. I added jalapeños to the Snow White pizza and it was incredible. The dough had the perfect chew and flavor. My boyfriend's chicken parm was massive--two huge cutlets--and easily a 10/10. The seafood pasta was equally delicious. Dessert was the perfect finish: frozen espresso, refreshing lemon sorbet, and a giant tiramisu that's big enough for a crowd. My only small complaint is that guests pack their own leftovers. At this level, I think the staff should handle that. Otherwise, everything was fantastic. We'll definitely be back!

My friend and I stopped by La Lanterna on April 12, 2026 during a long bike ride for lunch. We…read moredidn't have bike locks with us, so I went inside to ask the manager, Bill, if we could leave our bikes in the (closed) patio area since we were worried about them being stolen. Unfortunately, he was extremely dismissive and simply said no, then added that there were no tables available for us--which was odd considering the group right after us got seated immediately. I'm not sure if it was how we were dressed or what, but his overall attitude felt very cold and unwelcoming. We ended up sitting at the bar, and to be fair, Bill did help coordinate with the bartender Ana to get us seats together, which I appreciated. Ana herself was kind and attentive, though when we asked for food recommendations, she mostly just said "everything is great." I personally prefer a bit more honest guidance. For food, we shared the Hot Honey Roni Sicilian, Caesar salad, and calamari fritti. The pizza was definitely the highlight--super delicious and satisfying, especially as my first time trying that style. The Caesar salad was good, but for $16, I found the portion a bit small. The calamari was also solid, though we didn't love the sauce it came with. While we were eating, Bill noticed where we had placed our bikes (near the stairs where we could keep an eye on them) and came over rather abruptly, asking why they were in "his garden." Even after my friend apologized, he just walked away. His overall presence throughout the visit really hurt the experience--definitely not the kind of hospitality you expect. Overall, the experience was okay. The drinks were good, and my friend and I always make the best of things, but for the price point (about $80 each with two drinks and tip), I expected better service and slightly more generous portions. I'd consider going back, especially if we're biking in the area again--but next time, we'll definitely bring bike locks...and avoid the garden

Stayed at the Tarrytown House Estate for an art festival and enjoyed the overall stay. The grounds…read morewere quite beautiful and the hotel itself was... insane. Truly a maze. You need a map to get around! I recorded myself walking to my room and it took about 2.5 minutes (no elevators and so many stairs). They had a restaurant at the hotel but it was closed for a private event while I was there so I did not get to try it. The parking was down a very steep hill and there really are no sidewalks to get you to the front effectively so I highly recommend dropping off your bags at the top of the hill and doing valet or parking afterward. Room was comfortable but plain. It did what we needed it to do! Overall, the stay was fine but the walk to the room was actually insane and the hills you have to endure (especially carrying all your luggage) made it so that I felt I worked out every time I got to the room or left it. They did have a nice outdoor spot with lights and chairs while I got a photo of. That was really nice to have!

Tarrytown House Estate -- A breakdown of basic housekeeping and room readiness…read more I rarely write negative reviews, but this stay was frustrating enough that I feel obligated to share it for other travelers--especially because the issues weren't minor "preferences." They were basic cleanliness and room-readiness failures that never should have made it past inspection. I arrived and checked in at approximately 10:00 PM after a long day and was looking forward to getting into a clean, functional room and going to sleep. Instead, the first room we were assigned was clearly not turned and not ready for occupancy. The bed was unmade, the sheets were dirty, there were towels left on the floor, and there was trash still in the bin. It was obvious nobody had done the standard housekeeping reset. We took photos because it was so blatant. We immediately returned to the front desk and explained the situation. To their credit, they reassigned us to a suite, which seemed like an upgrade, though it also felt like it may have been the only option left at that hour. Unfortunately, when we entered the suite it became clear this was not a true "service recovery" moment, because the suite had its own set of cleanliness problems that were honestly gross. In the suite: The coffee table was dirty, like it hadn't been wiped down. Several chairs were stained with a mysterious brown substance. Not "a little wear," but noticeable stains that made you not want to sit down. In the primary bathroom, there were pubic hairs stuck to the wall. That last detail is unpleasant to even type, but it matters because it speaks to the overall quality control. A hotel room at this level should have a baseline of cleanliness that makes guests feel comfortable. Instead, we were left wondering what else had been missed. Then there was the room readiness / maintenance issue. One of the televisions in the main bedroom didn't have the necessary cable/connection. We reported it to the front desk, which required another walk back through the property. The response we got was essentially: use the cable from the living room area. In other words, we were expected to troubleshoot and "reconfigure" the room ourselves to make a basic amenity work. At a property charging what this property charges and presenting itself as an upscale destination guests should not be: placed into a room that clearly wasn't cleaned, moved into a suite that has visible cleanliness issues (including in the bathroom), and told to do DIY fixes for basic functionality like a bedroom TV. I have spent many years in hospitality, so I don't have unrealistic expectations; mistakes happen. What matters is how they're handled. In this case, the pattern suggested a deeper issue with housekeeping standards and the room inspection process, and the "solution" provided still left us dealing with conditions that were unacceptable. Finally, what pushed this from "bad night" to "I'm leaving a review": I sent a message to the General Manager prior to checking out and asked to speak. It's now been several days, and I have received no follow-up from management or staff. A property that wants to protect its reputation and guest experience should take something like this seriously and respond. Bottom line: the grounds and brand may suggest a higher-end experience, but my actual stay was defined by rooms that were not properly cleaned, visible hygiene issues in the suite, and an unreasonable expectation that guests should troubleshoot basic in-room equipment. I can't recommend it based on this experience.

Food: 10/10 Service: 10/10…read more Ambiance : 9/10 I've been here several times for their regular sushi rolls and appetizers, and they've never disappointed. This review, though, is all about their omakase experience. As always, the service was exceptional. The owner and staff are incredibly welcoming, attentive, and genuinely make you feel like a valued guest. The only reason this wasn't a perfect 10/10 had nothing to do with the restaurant. It's a small, intimate space, and unfortunately another table had a baby who cried throughout much of the meal. Not the restaurant's fault at all, but it's something to keep in mind if you're looking for a quiet omakase experience. Now for the food, the omakase was fantastic. I won't go through every course because part of the fun is the surprise, but what really stood out was the fish-to-rice ratio. Every piece was generously topped with beautifully fresh fish instead of being overloaded with rice, which I absolutely loved. Each bite was thoughtfully prepared, incredibly fresh, and full of flavor. Dessert was another pleasant surprise. Instead of the usual ending you get at many sushi restaurants, they served matcha ice cream topped with sweet red bean paste and pieces of mochi. It was unique, refreshing, and the perfect finish to the meal. Overall, I'll definitely continue coming back, not just for the omakase, but for their regular menu as well. If you're an omakase fan or looking for a quality sushi experience without breaking the bank, this place is absolutely worth a visit.

We love umami. Their fish is reliably fresh, the service warm and welcoming and the taste…read more.. We've been to Nobu, Sugarfish and the others. Umami is a diamond in the rough. Pay attention to the 5 star reviews. Those are legit. We go in person because they often give us complimentary appetizers, which have included blue fin, king salmon and others in creative and delicious arrangements. Our favorite menu items include: sushi deluxe, tricolor sushi, heat roll. However, the sashimi is the best part- fatty tuna, yellowtail and salmon are the best. And they've converted me on fluke and kingfish.
