There is now a fence along the right side of Parnassus Lane when driving towards Big Pink. We were…read moreable to see the Big Pink house through the fence, but my wife forced me to turn the car around before we got to the driveway because of the No Trespassing signs. I didn't blame her because I'm not looking to get shot. I love The Band, but I'm also seen the movie Deliverance so we turned around. I'm not sure how friendly the current occupants of Big Pink are, but I'm not sure the neighbors are too keen on visitors driving down Parnassus - it feels like someone's private driveway. UPDATE: I see from Kathleen D.'s review from 2014 the current owners (Don and Sue) are friendly and actually rent out Big Pink for others to stay in. However, I notice the website (https://bigpinkbasement.com/) has updates from 2015 and I wasn't sure what the current situation was like in 2024. I reached out on the website's Contact Us form and here's the response I received: "Hi Julian, Yes you may come down the road at your own risk. A neighbor put up the signs. We are still renting, the link to VRBO is on the big pink basement website. There is a minimum of 3 nights. If you have trouble booking please let me know. All the best, Susan LaSala"

I haven't been there in over a year, now, and according to the reviews I've read, they may have increased their prices, like so many restaurants, as the price of supplies like meat and vegetables has definitely gone up for everyone across the country.

And the renovated old farmhouse was just lovely and offered porch dining though we sat inside. The gentleman who greeted us was outgoing and started the meal off positively. Despite not having a reservation, we were able to be seated promptly. The complimentary bread and olive oil were solid. The meatball appetizer ($19) was decent but tiny, and the pasta special ($29) was not too impressive and was too oily. I didn't even bother to glance at the dessert menu. Service was not in line with an upscale restaurant. The server never came over to take our orders, and she finally did only after we brought this up to the host who was quite apologetic. Then she was attentive for a little but then returned to her inattentiveness. Finally, the bathroom could've used some tidying up as well. Sorry Cucina, I really wanted to like you.

We chose this because we thought they had a ton of holiday decor, however was mistaken; it's just an old school bar that serves Italian food. Service was very attentive and friendly. In general, everyone in there was chill and happy which is always a good sign. Ordered a few negronis which were all well made. We got the eggplant rollatini, fried calamari and house salad to start. They really don't skimp on the portions. Calamari included tentacles which I didn't expect from this kind of place; it was fresh and pretty much as good as it gets, especially upstate. Eggplant rollatini was well made and showcased their really good sauce. House salad is loaded up with cheese (parmigiana and gorgonzola) however I mean that in the best way; it eats like a Caesar, and it's a massive portion. Got the penne ala vodka with chicken cutlet for my main although I was tempted by the bolognese special. It was damned good. Vodka sauce was fantastic, and chicken cutlet was plentiful and on the well done side. I think I got 3 meals out of this and I'm not a small dude. Great meal all around and the perfect cap to our day. I don't make it to Kingston much however I would come here whenever nearby. Vibe is great and the food is better. Never a bad thing to have another reliable Italian place around!
