Marbella - So good !! - Wine Bars Near Me - Ellenville, New York

The recently updated menu is so good! We have always loved the food and the vibe inside but this new menu is especially excellent. We love the steak options, their specials, pastas, shishito peppers, melted cheese board (never had it anywhere else), and the chorizo tapas. Also they just got their liquor license which is awesome! One of the best spots locally for sure. read more

Nasty disposition from the owner! Food is on the good side! Most of all the prices are off the rails. I should have at least got a shoe shine for the price! read more

A relaxing yet swanky vibe. Magnificent wine choices and a delightful tapas menu with great attention to detail. When you walk in you enter a dreamlike atmosphere that provides a great escape. Oh and the food is delightful. read more

I brought it to his attention said ,he forgot price, bs! Inside was small, cozy nice & pleasant Greek music playing. We wouldn't go back again!!! read more

The most ridiculous pretense of a restaurant, promising tapas at Manhattan prices, but unable to deliver. Held us waiting for 40 minutes in empty room for 3 tapas, but canceled order and denied services after we dared to remind about our time limit. Outrageous and uncomprehensible behavior of both, waiter and bartender is better to avoid. Beware! read more

My husband and I came to Trattoria Marbella on Saturday, September 19, 2020. We were totally blown away by the atmosphere, food, friendliness of the staff. The owner, Luis, couldn't do enough for us to make our experience memorable. We had the mozzarella sticks, I had shrimp scampi and my husband had chicken parm with home made linguini. EVERYTHING was DELICIOUS! We live about 2 hours away but will be back when the leaves change. If you are heading upstate do not miss this place in Ellenville. You will NOT be disappointed. read more

Wow. This place was SO good! Our server was very nice and attentive. The food was amazing honestly. Everything was so fresh and very savory. I was here to visit after hiking all day and man the food was so worth the trip!!! And the dessert was so yummy read more

What amuses me most, is the 2 star reviewers keep going back! This place is raveable, really. I grew up locally and have worked in a Michelin-starred restaurant for the past 12 years. The interior is shockingly, very modern, for this area. It's dimly lit and great for a date or dinner party. I enjoyed conversations with both owners, who are very welcoming. I had a chicken vegetable soup and steak caesar salad which was delicious. I topped it off with 2 glasses of red, and for $40, I felt like I robbed the place. I can't wait to return! read more

The Atmosphere is absolutely beautiful, the service was wonderful and most of all the food was fantastic. It's a TAPAS restaurant and I had the best stuffed clams in my life and the tuna was spot on ! read more

The food was very well prepared, and the service exceptional. The menu is imaginative with a wide variety of small plates. Really great dining experience! read more

Splendid tapas place on Canal Street. We went on a Saturday and had the octopus, tuna, shrimp, paella, shishito peppers and papas bravas with a few other things. And some excellent wine. Food was delicious, service was quick, and the decor is very romantic. Perfect date night spot. read more

Such a cool atmosphere. Everything we ordered was perfect. Food is paced perfectly. Not rushed. Refined, delicious menu. Just love this place. read more

Definitely don't skip Marbella if you are in the area. All of the food I have tried there (octopus, seared tuna, short rib, fresh pasta, roasted vegetables) has been fantastic and gourmet. It's a nice cozy space to spend some time in. The decor is eclectic but you can tell it was chosen with care. Luis is very personable and takes a lot of pride in the whole operation. read more

My husband and I enjoyed an excellent dinner here tonight. He had stuffed mushrooms which were the best I've tasted, and I had gazpacho soup, also the best I've ever had. For dinner he had pasta bolognese, and I had Gorgonzola steak. The atmosphere is upscale, classy yet intimate, we received excellent service by the owner. Highly recommend this place! read more

Food is ok takes long to be served! Ambiance is pleasant. Rather spend time at other places

Wow decor is amazing. Bbq ribs precooked and cold. Cheese board bread was super market bread toasted. Dumpling we from Asian retail market bag. I really like this place as it looks great but was hungry and foot is sub par. read more

The ambiance was lovely the server very nice.... The homemade pasta was raw and it was a very tiny portions for the cost. I would have liked to know there was going to be entertainment of a very uncomfortable nature. Other wise it was just ok. read more

A true gem! Exceptional food and service. One of the best restaurants in the Hudson Valley

Good experience, grade A service, well priced perfect for date night, love;y decor, will return after Covid.

My daughter and I were passing through and stopped in for lunch. The Eggplant and Chicken Parmesan are delicious! The pasta is made fresh from scratch. And the Tiramisu is the best I've ever had! Seriously. The service is excellent. Both the host and chef are very friendly and super hospitable. I highly recommend this place and will definitely come back when we're in the area again! read more

Ok in Feb., Beautiful inside, steaks good, bread, but the pasta with pancetta was not at all like bacon tasted bad, barely no sauce.I returned it staff was very nice.Got like a veal & pasta stew dish was really good. I say worth going to try this restaurant, very romantic too!!! read more

Absolutely amazing steak and a super cozy and hip interior. Luis is super nice and a great host. Highly recommend.

Handmade pasta . THE best stracciatelli soup. Such Authentic family recipes you won't find anywhere. The place to seek out if you are an obsessed foodie. Sick location . Some of the most unspoiled hiking and motorcycle roads surrounds the Trattoria Marbella it is truly THE location . Skip the Mohonk hysteria and the city mobs which neighbors this restaurant area. You will NOT pay to park here! Adorable little town to stroll. More like memorable event than just dinner. You can enjoy BYOB for only a short time which always keeps a place hopping to bring you better food than anywhere else. You will plan to keep making visits though as an astonishing renovation is underway and so much fun to see the ruins exposed. Don't miss read more

Was there over this past weekend for a work-related venture - very nice and professional staff. The chicken and broccoli dish I had was excellent - homemade pasta! An extra notice should be given to the bathrooms. They have two bathrooms - the first one is TINY - a large person will have trouble doing their business in there. The second one is perfect for all sizes. Both bathrooms are CLEAN and FRESH - a very pleasant experience! The wood floors enhance the atmosphere - if you are in the area, pay a visit. You will not be disappointed read more

My fiancé and I were upstate for a romantic getaway & were recommended this spot by our air bnb hosts for some fine dining. Our hostess/waitress greeted us at the door and was super attentive the entire night. The chef himself actually came out and recommended some dishes to us both which was VERY nice. Food was great and our experience overall was wonderful. Service was on point- they made us feel like we were the only ones in the restaurant. If you're looking for a quality place where the owners and chef put their heart in the menu and service, then this is it. read more

Have known Luis and Michele from when they first started this restaurant a few years back as a pizza place. This is truly a remarkable story of growing a wonderful restaurant in a place where food options are sorely lacking. Congrats to them for continuing their success! read more

No masks, no bread, and the owner had no worries about us sitting at the table with no food on the table for 20 minutes. He kept saying that the bread was in the oven, but we never got it. The steak was good. Not too friendly. Very expensive! read more

Steak was charcoaled & veggies good ,but mash was loose,bread good,dipping sauce strange but ok,i gave back my pasta with pancetta was rancid tasting , could not taste cheese sauce (thought pancetta would taste like bacon does not) I got pork pieces with pasta instead was thin watery sauce but good almost like a bowl of soup. Great Decor was romantic!! Limited menu.Wish they had Maine Lobster tail grilled on top of shell,or shrimp parm.Only had 3 desserts, 2 chocolate, need cannoli cake & carrot cake.,hot fudge ice cream sundae Please!! Nice waitress staff too! read more

Stopped in for the 1st time and wonder why it took us so long. The food was absolutely delicious,service was spot on and the wait was shorter than expected. Seeing the transformation of this restaurant is amazing . The ambience is wonderful. read more

Overall, not sure where the good reviews are coming from. The ingredients did not taste very fresh. There was basically no one inside on a Saturday night. Maybe that is normal for this area. The beans in the chicken tacos were cold. The octopus did not taste fresh. The chorizo also did not taste fresh. My partner and I finished about 1/3 of the food. The waitstaff did not ask if we enjoyed our food, likely because it was clear that we did not. The waiter was nice enough, but I go to a restaurant to eat, and there isn't any reason to return in that regard. I don't like driving home wondering if I will get food poisoning the next morning. Yikes. read more

Delicious home made pasta dishes and friendly service. Kudos to the owners for the beautiful and meticulous historic retoration - it's a really great space. Takes the mantle as best restaurant in Ellenville. Would be five stars but for the disappointing coffee. Even so, I would recommend this restaurant to anyone, particularly lovers of good pasta. read more

We stopped in Ellenville for lunch and got caught in the rain. Thankfully, we were close to Trattoria and decided to have lunch. The restaurant wasn't open at the time but the owner welcomed us and gave us a five star dining experience. The antipasto was crafted so well that we quickly realized how much care and love goes into the courses at this place. Next, we had fresh tagliatelle pasta that were the perfect portion sizes. Thanks to perfect sizes, we had room for desserts and espresso. This is a great spot for the family to gather or a romantic dinner out, and is a must go to spot for truly traditional Italian. read more

Was visiting Ellenville, the town my girlfriend grew up in, and happened upon this new business. GREAT LUCK! This place isn't even finished with all of the renovations and changes it plans to do, and it is still TERRIFIC! The owners are two of the nicest people I have met in a while, and they took their time to chat with us and tell us all about the history of the building they renovated, plans for the future, and owner/chef Luis' pride in his homemade pasta. First, the space is BEAUTIFUL. So rustic Italian-looking, a truly restored old building with so much charm and warmth. They are currently renovating the back for a very cozy bar area and I cannot WAIT until this is done. I am telling you, this place is going to be something really special when it's all finished. But they're still a full-service dining operation right now, you wouldn't even know they still had plans for more! Homemade pasta is so delicious, and the Tuscan style preparation is just the best, lightest coating of red sauce. We also had a mushroom ravioli that was so tasty I will think about it for a while! I cannot tell you how much we enjoyed our meal and the wonderful people we met. Special shoutout to Gary, our incredible server! Also, no liquor license yet, but they're working on it! Still come and try to BYOB! read more

Great spot for before and after theater dining. Rustic Hudson Valley nostalgia adorn the carefully curated space. We love this little spot for even a nosh. read more

This was the best steak I have ever had in my life recommend to all also grab the antipasto and sweet potato they were amazing stakes are 35$ and are the best thing you'll put in your mouth read more

Incredible dinner at Trattoria Marbella. The homemade pasta and steak kabobs were absolutely delicious. They make their pasta fresh every day and get their steaks locally. You could taste the fresh ingredients in every bite. The owner greeted us and the overall service was excellent and the atmosphere was very relaxing. Prices also very reasonable. Highly recommend! read more

Came here on 9/19/20 mid-morning. Horrible experience here. The food was faux Italian; in reality it's basically regular American diner food. However, it's also in the middle of nowhere so whatever, I didn't expect NYC quality. What was unacceptable though was the fact that not only was the server wearing his mask incorrectly, but he also moved my forks by touching them with his own bare hands. His fingers touched the fork side that you stab food with. Are you kidding me? You'd think basic sanitary training would be important in the middle of a once in a century pandemic, but apparently not to this restaurant. I would only come here again if my goal was to get permanent lung damage from COVID. read more
