Although Poughkeepsie has a decent variety of excellent restaurant options, there aren't a lot of upscale places to select from. We opted to book reservations for Brasserie 292 for a Saturday night. When we arrived, we were nearing the end of the dinner rush. We were sat right away, unfortunately it wasn't all too romantic being sat in the middle of the restaurant but understandably the restaurant is on the smaller side. The waiter was attentive, and addressed any of our questions about the menu, even hunting down the bottle of pinot noir we ordered. We opted to start off our night by splitting a half-dozen oysters which came with their in-house hot sauce, and an order of pouple, which was cooked to perfection. For our entrees we selected the red wine braised lamb shank and the dry aged prime NY steak. Since sides for both entrees were not mentioned on the menu, we also ordered sides - wild mushrooms, brussels sprouts and crispy smoked peewee potatoes. Overall the food was excellent and I'm still dreaming about the mushrooms. If we lived locally, would we go back, maybe but overall we had a great experience. Since this was an upscale restaurant, I opted to not photograph our meals and enjoyed being present in the moment.

SERVICE: College age servers do a nice job- My server, August, is friendly, attentive , and knowledgeable about the menu. He stated that my Allium allergy was not a problem. The food came out at a good pace and was very fresh. FOOD: The menu is a bit more extensive than the original location in Wappingers Falls, but I recognize most of the tried and true favorites: My order: Jasmine tea, SOUP DUMPLINGS: the same excellent flavor as the regular dumplings with very little soup inside. They are delicious but pricewise, I recommend opting in for the one dozen pork dumplings at 10:99 - a better value and the same flavor. Beef and carrot pan fried: Scrumptious!! One of my favorites. Shrimp and pork steamed $13.99 sweet, jut-right shrimp coddled in sweet sausage. Delicate and delicious! TO-Go for my daughter: MALA TANG- Shrimp, Quail eggs, vegetables $17.99 I'm hoping that they packed it well for travel Nice meal, Chef!‍ CONGRATULATIONS on your new location!

Dumpling varieties included vegetarian, egg, pork or chicken, steamed or $2 more for fried. We enjoyed the chicken and cabbage and pork and chicken and chive (12 each) and it was enough of a snack for 3 people. Their menu has a decent selection so would love to return to sample other things. Pay cash to get an 8% "discount." Service was fine too. It has two entrances on opposite sides which is convenient if you want to explore other stores (Smoothie King, ramen, bunsen lab, Shake shack, etc) in the complex. Shop Rite and Home depot are also close.

My daughter and I shared the Margherita pizza and the Garganelli Pasta with Short Rib Ragù, and both dishes were absolutely delicious. The pizza had a perfectly crisp crust with fresh, flavorful ingredients, and the short rib ragù was rich, tender, and incredibly comforting. Since it's a brewery, I couldn't leave without trying one of their beer flights. Our server recommended a selection, and every single beer was excellent. It was a fun way to sample their craft brews, and the recommendations were spot on. The service was friendly and attentive, the atmosphere was warm and inviting, and the location makes it an ideal stop before or after a show at the Bardavon. I'll definitely be back the next time I'm in Poughkeepsie! Highly recommend.

For a few years, the soft cushioned booth seating they had installed were very worn with ripped, torn and cracked pleather, but they finally got new seating, so its more comfortable to sit along the wall now. The service can be spotty and sometimes I've felt like the servers need to step up their game a bit, but they're always very friendly and they have never been rude to me or anyone that I've been with. I love their appetizer - camarones empanadas. They are delicious and very filling, so I can order this dish as my whole meal and feel very satiated.

I started with a couple Pilsners, then came the food. Everything was top notch and very creative! Choices on the menu you're not gonna see anywhere else.

The neighborhood is a little sketchy on Main St. Poughkeepsie, but don't let that put you off. Once inside you wend your way through a maze of aisles, going past rows of recognizable produce and exotic produce. There's loads of fresh herbs, several types of mushrooms, and vegetables. It's not fancy inside. The shelves carry mostly Caribbean and Mexican products, produce, and household items. But, there are also the same items you might find in a local supermarket. There are Asian items on the shelves as well. There aren't many fish markets up here, compared to the City. The fish section is quite impressive. Whole fluke, mackerel, gigantic porgies, and other whole fresh fish. Further down are fillets and seafood. There is no fishy smell anywhere. The clams close when tapped. Today I checked the eyes and gills of a few fish - clear and bright red. The way there supposed to be when fresh. Bring your own shopping bags.
