I ordered 2 dinners, pizza and portabella mushroom, and when we got it home the portabella mushrooms did not have the gorgonzolla cheese with it, it says right on the menu it comes with this cheese,. I called back Cosimoes and the manager Ashley said, " the cheese is extra" Ashley said," and if I wanted it, I can come back for it, I told her the waitress she never asked me if I wanted the cheese, IT SAYS RIGHT ON THE MENUE IT COMES WITH THE GORGONZOLLA CHEESE, I had to ask her twice for her name she didn't want to give it to me, Then Ashley said that I had an aittude, Oh really, nice, I spent over $100.00 on this order, this is not the end I will call again and talk to someone who cares about Cosimo's business, it's obvious, Ashley doesn't! read more

We had a great lunch today. Our waitress Stefanie made great recommendations that we all enjoyed! I would highly recommend eating here. Great food and service!!! read more

I've been dining at all the Cosimo's locations for as long as I can remember. I grew up in the area and have enjoyed each locations many times, and this is the only reason I am not giving a 1 star. I know the cost of things have gone up, I work retail so I understand...but oh my god. I've been ordering the spicy chicken fusilli nearly every time. Now again change is fine...but I'm paying $19 for less food than I did a year ago. You changed the pasta to a larger fusilli. I used to get 2 or 3 meals out of an order (and with that I'd probably be ok with the price hike) but now? now it's some pasta with a lot of sauce. Your white clam sauce is $21. Let's say that again TWENTY ONE. I know for a fact you're not back there cracking open clams for fresh sauce, so why can I pick up a can of clams from price chopper for $2 and boil some pasta. The quality of your pasta has degraded as well. My father ordered a drink from the bar, an old fashioned. It was around $15 and had a GIANT Chunk of ice leaving a sip of a drink. He payed how much for one sip?! My mother got a wood fire margarita pizza...we thought for sure it would be perfect considering it's what you're known for. There was barely any cheese and it was oily as hell. I wasn't going to write a review because I wanted to give the benefit of the doubt. I know you revamped the Newburgh location so there's an adjustment period...I was going to order takeout tonight and saw the price, you're out of your minds. I'll just make it at home. And this doesn't reflect your staff, your staff has always been amazing. But the owners? Unimpressed. You're ruining a good thing for a lot of locals. read more

OK I have to give them five stars. There is nothing about what I i have eaten that I can criticize in the least. I had the calamari which was crisp and tender all at once. The marinara sauce had lots of garlic and cracked pepper. I will say I wish the marinara sauce was on the side. However they did give me a cup of it as I asked. I ordered a busy pizza. Those of you that know me know that I do not do busy pizzas. I ordered fennel (a fan of Fennel) and hot Italian sausage. I'm just gonna leave that at that. It came out of a woodfired oven and it is delicious. Had a glass of Montepucciano wine And it was spectacular. I will absolutely come back when I visit read more

At the beginning of October my husband picked up takeout from Cosimos like we have done for years. I got the house salad with some add-ons and he brought it to me at work. Within an hour I started feeling sick. By the next morning I called my doctor and he sent me to the ER. I had food poisoning and it took a day in the hospital and week after to start to feel better. My father went to Cosimos the day I was in the ER to let them know what happened. He spoke with the manager and gave his/my information and NO ONE CALLED US!! We didn't want anything from them just to let them know this happened and they should take precautions. My family is long time Newburgh residents and I am extremely upset. Not only from the fact the manager never reached out (which is bad business practice) but lack of respect for their patrons read more

Great food for a chain restaurant and the service is great as well kudos. It's also close to my house

This was a fabulous place! It is a family place with a lovely atmosphere. Our waitress was great and helpful with recommendations. It's always special when you find a place with such a great menu that you'd like to comeback to the next day to try another dish. Sadly, we had a full schedule and would not be in town for dinner the next night. DINNER: I enjoyed their Portobella Raviolis. It was a good portion and full of flavor. Our son had the Create Your Own pizza and loved it. My husband had the salmon on top of broccoli rabe (broccolini) and fagioli (Tuscan bean). He was really happy with his meal. The salmon was cooked perfectly and it was a nice sized portion. DRINKS: Although the food was fabulous, I did have one disappointment, thus the 4 stars. I'm a bourbon girl, and especially when traveling, like to try Old Fashions and other drinks with bourbon in them. The Old Fashion here was not that great. Maybe they had an off night. If you try it and like it, let me know. I like to hear what others think too. My hubby enjoyed his IPA by a local brewery. Wish I'd taken a picture to remind me of the name. Sorry guys! DESSERT: OMG guys! They have these sherbet deserts that are so yummy. Our son enjoyed the pineapple sherbet served in a frozen pineapple 1/2. Each sherbet is served in it's corresponding fruits shell. My hubby and I shared the tiramisu. Not a disappointment at all. Overall, next time we are in the area, I would love to stop and eat here. read more

This is a high-end brick oven pizzeria. They have a lot of options to choose from, including classic Italian appetizers and entrees. I would consider the food above average. My wife and I tend to get take out and enjoy or food at home! Great choice! read more

Delicious and consistent. A little pricey but soooo worth it! The pasta fagioli soup is fantastic and the pizzas are all great

Welcoming ambience; savory and thoughtfully prepared dishes; friendly and warm service. We had an excellent experience at Cosimo's while our Tesla charged right outside. read more

Our group of 4 had a fabulous lunch at Cosimo's. Luis was an excellent server and made several great food recommendations. Big favorites were Calamari, pasta Buttera and Grilled Chicken Pesto. The lovely manager, Christine, was warm and welcoming, as always! This restaurant never fails to exceed our expectations! I highly recommend!! read more

I love this place!! The food is delish, and the staff is great! Perfect date night spot!

Very good restaurant. I realize they like to change their menu a lot not sure why. Pizza is can't miss, Pasta Dishes are on point really can't go wrong with a Cosimo's meal. read more

Service is shocking, so many hostess' at the table but none was able to help. Our group was patient but they had us wait for 45 minutes to seat us and once they did call us in, they did not have space for all of us. It was awkward and unprofessional. Would never go back or recommend. read more

Food was just ok. Pretty pricey. I would expect the food to taste a lot better for the price I am paying. Customer Service was sub par too.

Visiting from California and stopped here for a late lunch. I loved the marinated olives with herbed olive oil and their fabulous rustic bread that was great dipped in the herbed olive oil. I had the lobster risotto which I really enjoyed but I found the rice a tad soft. My daughter had the mozzarella ravioli and and the Caesar salad and loved it! My husband had the white clam linguini and again their rustic bread was great for mopping up the delicious white clam broth! Great first meal on our NY vacation! read more

Don't let the flashy sign fool you. This place is amazing. Excellent ultra flavorful Italian food. Very attentive, friendly & knowledgable service. I'm not sure if this is a chain (I'm not a fan of chains) but I can make an exception for this place. A party of seven of us were swiftly seated despite being very busy, and our server was impeccable never missing a beat. The clams casino was made with little Neck clams which were succulent and delicious. Very fresh crusty bread complimentary with extra virgin olive oil crushed red pepper and large olives make for a nice start. They serve long hots peppers as a regular menu option. If you love hot you'll love these! The salad with beets and pistachios and goats cheese was excellent. I've been a few times now, and I always get the spicy chicken fusilli with fontina. I don't want to know the fat content but it sure is delicious. The roast pork over Pappardelle, grilled shrimp over pasta rice, and pizzas are also good choices. I like my pizza little bit more char & crunch. But everyone else really seems to love their pizza. We had excellent cappuccinos. Make room for dessert. The Nutella pot de creme with housemaid charred marshmallow was divine. The menu offers creative smaller appetizers, traditional Italian dishes, pasta dishes, seafood, ultra fresh salads, & daily specials as well as all a cart additions. It's always busy here. It's always immaculate. And the service is always stellar. Bravo to the staff and management! read more

The best thing about Cosimo's is that it consistently delivers on every attribute that one would expect from a restaurant. The service is always attentive, the food is always delicious, and the atmosphere is always upbeat and comfortable. Every location performs at the same level of proficiency and attention to detail. There is a reason that they've been so successful with not just Cosimo's, but Hudson Taco and the Pizza shop as well. Keep up the good work. read more

When you walk into this restaurant you smell the wonderful Italian foods being prepared and the gourmet pizzas coming out of the brick oven. The pasta dishes and pizza are quite tasty, but are only the beginning of their menu. They also have many well prepared entrees make with fresh ingredients and perfectly seasoned. The dining room is comfortable and nicely decorated. read more

Met a good friend here for an early dinner as I was passing through the area. Liked the ambiance immediately. Classy. Had a choice of dining outside (too noisy as the restaurant is on a main road and it was rush hour) or in one of two rooms inside. We chose the smaller, quieter room that you enter as you come into the restaurant. We both ordered the Eggplant Parmesan. We specially requested garlic and oil on the rigatoni instead of tomato sauce. Delicious. Their authentic, flavorful sauce tells me that everything here is homemade with great care. It was just about the best sauce I have ever eaten in a restaurant. The eggplant was very good as well - just the right cut, and enough to take home for 1 or 2 other meals (!). The server was perfectly attentive. Our beverages and food came out within a reasonable amount of time. I would like to make mention of their bathroom. OK, just the Ladies Room. It was sparkling clean and very inviting. One of the nicest restaurant bathrooms I have ever experienced. Deserves mention. What can I say? There is more than ample parking, and even a Tesla charging station right outside. Coming from NJ where Italian restaurants are a dime a dozen, Cosimo's is a gem. I will make a point to return there when traveling as it's only a few minutes from the NYS Thruway. read more

I had this one young lady, I think her name was lillian, she was amazing and unlike any server i have ever had!!! She was very kind and patient with us and always was checking in making sure we were happy!! The food was also very great and I will definitely visit again!! read more

Went here for dinner with 3 other people. Service was mediocre. Ordered calamari which was good. I had the dinner special pizza, a white pizza with shrimp and sautéed greens. Crust was super thin so it wasn't able to stand up to the toppings, resulting in a very soggy crust. Flavor was not remarkable. The rest of my party had pasta of various sorts. The serving size is enormous. Although the wait staff are courteous, they are not very attentive. We were asked if we were "still working on " our food or would we like containers to bring it home. As if dining in this establishment was a chore, hmmm. read more

This location is SO much better than it's sister location in Middletown. Much more elegant and peaceful than the others. Food is excellent for lunch or dinner and the bar area is small yet lively. I highly recommend going to this location over the Middletown one. read more

Food was amazing . Alyssa the bartender was extremely knowledgeable with a great personality. Excellent experience and highly recommend Cosimo !!! read more

Wow! Everything has been great: starting with their their tonic water (trust me, plenty of places serve Titos & Polar. Gag!), the wide slices of cheese they use over the salads, the unpitted olive they drop on the oil plate served with their crusty bread, their amazing balsamic honey dressing... The bartender helped me chose a delicious mushroom ravioli that tasted like they had just assembled it. I just can't say enough about this place. read more

For some reason after the reno they changed their menu. Menu changes are cool sometimes but not when you mess with a signature dish that was my absolute fave. The spicy chicken fusilli has gone from wow to ugh. The extra large noodles just ruined it for me... Please change it back so we can return to your establishment!! read more

My husband and I are traveling from Virginia to Cape Cod. We stopped for the night and found this establishment close to our hotel. Looked promising for a tasty supper. The drinks tasted like cleaning fluid, the Caesar salad was tasteless weird lol. I ordered a seafood pasta thing (diavolo?) that was weird and rubbery and tasted like old socks. My water glass had a big chip (sliced my lip but I'm fine, and a big crack down the side on further inspection). Our server was trying his best and we very much appreciated him. The cost of my meal was deducted from check do to water glass thing, I would not have asked for this but nice the restaurant did this. The music was loud and totally out of touch with Italian restaurant vibe. Overall this place was awful awful awful. I asked for doggie bag as I couldn't eat my lousy dinner however felt bad throwing it out. On second thought I tossed it immediately upon returning to hotel. I hate to disparage a place but absolutely no redeeming qualities. read more

Since changing their menu we have been going to the Middletown location. The herb roasted chicken is no longer on the menu with mashed potatoes and spinach. A couple of meals that we ordered were not up to the standard that they used to have before the renovation. I don't know why they changed the menu ...the new brined chicken with the hot potatoes is just not good in my opinion. My husband ordered the steak frites and the steak was just tough. This used to be our favourite place to go. Thankfully the pizzas are still up to par. read more

This gem I found last year when my customers took me here for lunch last summer. I remembered there were so many Italian delights that I want to order, I knew I was coming back. Now whenever I'm down state (Newburgh, Middletown and others), I plan my trip around a lunch or dinner here. Real, fresh, authentic Italian food. Great pizza, like sausage, hot peppers, broccoli rob and fresh mozzarella....just over the top! Amazing salads apps, just everything! I had dinner at Cosimos in Middletown last night and lunch in Newburgh today... and employees w the best attitudes ever! I met the owner Nick today at lunch, great guy, I can see why he is so successful. Keep it up Nick!! Ciao! read more

Came in the other evening with my husband and son. My son was craving calamari and this was definitely the spot to get some! It was cooked to perfection, crispy and fresh. I ordered eggplant parmesan which was delightful and a nice portion that I took home to reheat the following afternoon. My husband had the sirloin which was nice, cooked medium rare just how he likes with broccoli rabe on the side. The only thing is he wished he changed the croquette potatoes that came with it to smashed garlic potatoes. He said the croquettes were no bueno. Our waiter was excellent but the "host/guy" walking around looking over tables pacing the dining room with the very long painted fingernails was very unappealing. That was the only down side. It made for uncomfortable dining. I would go again but maybe request not to be seated in that particular area. read more

Had Dinner here on Sunday after 5 PM. McKenzie - the Waitress gets high marks from us. Very nice and pleasant and happy to work employee who gets commended for her constant attention to our group of 6. Service was great and really made our meal that more enjoyable- THANK YOU McKenzie - you ROCK!!! Antipasto was really good with nice selection and good portions sizes. 2 different kinds of nice fresh bread. Good Pizza. Great Broccoli Rabe with Garlic, just the right amount of consistency and not too much oil, done perfectly. We shall return! Hopefully soon... read more

From beginning to end it was great. Jocelyn the hostess was sweet and pleasant. Brianna the waitress is fantastic and knowledgeable. We had everything from apps to dessert and not one complaint. It is a bit pricey so be ready. But the food and wine choices are really delicious. _________________________________________________ Soooo, went back for my anniversary dinner a couple of days ago. Everything was good, but then at dessert time I was sadly disappointed. I ordered the warm chocolate lava cake and was so excited and couldn't wait to get it. But then once I received it I could tell just by looking at that it that it was not an actual warm cake with lava in the center. It was more like their flourless chocolate cake that they have. I decided to call and ask someone about this and I was told they actually serve a fudge type of chocolate cake and no lava. Fake news!!! Please change the name of the dessert to something more accurate. Otherwise, the food and wine is always good. read more

Good food, good service. The staff was amazing and really did a wonderful job. The ambiance was that of your typical Italian restaurant.

Decent Italian food. Nothing crazy. The people working there were nice. A good experience!

Best Italian I've had this side of Catania. Jeanine, best server ever, made sure our second anniversary dinner perfect. From timing and delivery of food and drinks, she was outstanding. BF had Mixed Grill, steak outstanding but homemade sausage like a religious experience. Damn. Really. My arancini appetizer spot-on including piselli in the San Manzano red sauce, and Margherita pizza better than great. Sauce Marzano-splendid, fresh crust chewy on the inside perfectly baked and crusty on bottom real mozzarella di bufo.... Not one misstep and eager for next visit to discover what else they are doing perfectly. Bravo! read more

We came to Cosimo's after a long day of travel. Our hotel was nearby and the receptionist told us that we could get a discount at the restaurant by showing our room key. That helped make our dinner decision easy. When we saw the full parking lot, we thought there would be a significant wait. But I hopped out of the car, went in and asked, and found we could be seated immediately. As we were pretty hungry, we couldn't have been happier to hear this. Son got a margherita pizza. It was delicious. The crust was the perfect combo of chewy/crisp, the sauce and toppings were fresh, and it arrived piping hot. Daughter had spaghetti and meatballs. Again, the dish had a lovely fresh taste and the meatballs were just moist enough and were flavorful. Husband and I both had a pasta special -- I can't remember the name, but it was penne with sausage and kale and in a wonderful tomato-ey broth, not really a sauce. It was one of the best bowls of pasta I've ever had, perfectly cooked, and the sausage looked and tasted homemade -- it was that fresh and tasty. We were so full there wasn't room for dessert, but I'm sure it would have been just as good as the entrees we enjoyed. Add to all this an efficient and friendly server and a cheery ambience, and I can't imagine a nicer way to end a day on the road. We would definitely return to Cosimo's if we're ever in the area again, and we heartily recommend it to travelers and locals alike. read more
