When we were checking out the next morning the owner told us about some neat places to eat and visit, and she was just great. If we were passing through town again we would definitely go back for a stay. Cute little spot!

Nice location, average experience!!…read more I visited Riverside Cafe & Lodge mainly for the setting, and the riverside view was definitely the highlight. It's a peaceful spot and a nice place to relax, especially if you enjoy outdoor seating. The food was okay overall--some items were enjoyable, while others felt fairly basic and could use more flavor. Service was friendly, though a bit slow at times, especially when the place got busy. Overall, Riverside Cafe & Lodge is a decent stop if you're nearby and want to enjoy the scenery. With more consistency in food quality and faster service, it could be much better.

My wife had the NY strip steak which was cooked perfectly (medium) and delicious. I had the fresh trout which fell off of the bones and was served over rice. We finished with Bread Pudding (cognac sauce) and Pecan/Turtle pie. Took leftovers from both home to enjoy again later. A must stop!

The location is gorgeous, the wait staff was above and beyond, the coordinator Sharon Potter was one of the best I have seen in the business, and the venue offered an experience that a good many of my attendees have been talking about. The location itself located comfortably in the Pocono area is isolated enough to enjoy your own wedding, but still near to a lot of hubs for shopping and food. The gorgeous lake is a little bit away from the venue, but offers a beautiful view of the area. The venue itself is quaint and elegant. Overall, we could not have picked a better place to pick and were assisted by some of the best people to make our day perfect. I will always remember how well they treated us and I will always recommend this location.

Her heartfelt words wrapped around my core; saying WELCOME HOME. Oh, and it was home at its finest. From the 4pm welcome social, that included delicious White & Red wines that danced graciously on your palate. Various delectable cheeses, crackers, olives & thinly sliced turkey meats. YUMMY, they were! Movie nights, s'more's & more libation at your choice.

I feel like all the elements conspire in this little corner of the world to make you feel at peace. First, there is Missy!!! No words to describe this woman...she is simply the best host I've ever met in all my stays elsewhere. Never felt more at home & cared for! Then there is The beautiful RIVER that runs through it.....pure Magic to be held by this beautiful element! It was such a gift to wake up to the sound of it & be able to just go outside side in pajamas to sit and receive waves of deep peace first thing in the morning...just aaahhhhhh!!

We went to the Lodge Steakhouse for the first time after several wonderful meals at the Cantina…read more The setting was absolutely breathtaking. We felt like we were walking through a fairytale-like winter wonderland in Idaho or Jackson Hole. It had just snowed and truly looked magical. Perfect landscape design and and lighting. The dining room itself is equally elegant, decor is on point, upscale and super-tasteful, and atmosphere is fantastic. We were SO excited about the drinks, wine and food menus. Ordered liberally to try a lot of different things, and... womp womp. While the plating and presentation of all we ordered was perfect, the taste did not rise to the level of the presentation. The martini had a strange undertone, The Pinot was thin and underwhelming. The oysters all had pieces of shell in them from how they were shucked that then had to be fished out from one's palate (and there's no way to do that that's not awkward at a full table). The octopus was overcooked. They serve garlic biscuits, which were tasty but we didn't finish them bc no one was blown away. The duck - skin was scored properly but not given enough time time crisp or pan not hot enough, so served soggy, tho the meat was done correctly. All dishes sat upon a turnip puree, with the duck having additional (also soggy veggies), and the steak having additional shredded cabbage. French fries came out nearly cold but in a nice metal basket lined with parchment. They looked perfect and then the bite was, well, not hot. Mashed potatoes were good. Presented well. Perhaps the highlight of the evening? The service was very good, by the way. Staff was fantastic. It's just that something was a near miss on the food... very heavy handed, the unique tastes and freshness of the ingredients cooked out of many... a very different experience than had in the cantina, where the food has been perfect each time. 2 Coffees, 2 sodas, 1 martini and one glass of wine, 2 apps, 3 entrees, and one dessert with standard tip came out to just under $500. It's a lot for an underwhelming meal. Food wise, if I were to recommend a fine dining establishment where the food is superlative for the same price, I'd say Hudson House in Nyack, hands down. While they don't have the same ethereal setting, the culinary aspect cannot be beat. They do have oysters that are shucked correctly and a killer steak au poivre with pomme frites that's incredible. Perhaps we'll try this place again in the future. Not sure if it's new? Only just learned about the Lodge Steakhouse part, so who knows. Summary: Overall, gorgeous setting, food presentation. Staff service: lovely, actual taste of each dish: meh.

It's right in Sloatsburg tucked in behind another bar on Old Rt 17 - I've passed by and never realized it! We came to have Sunday Brunch/Lunch at the Cantina and were very impressed! It was the weekend of Halloween so it was still decorated with lots to look at. Drink-wise, we started with the Rose and the Pink Cobbler which was like a fruity twist on an Old Fashioned. We ordered the Shaved Brussel Sprouts pizza to share along with the Lobster Crisps to start. The lobster was YUM. It was a cold lobster served with house chips. The pizza was great! It wasn't heavy and included fall flavors such as butternut squash. For dessert, we shared the ricotta zeppoles which came with a chocolate sauce. Service was excellent. Valley Rock Inn Cantina is a little slice of heaven away from the noises of NYC and yet you don't feel like you're in Rockland County. It's hard to explain but it transports you to somewhere else. I can't wait to come back again for dinner!
