Amazing amazing amazing, loved everything about Miss Lucy's and wish we could've gone back for another visit while in town! Definitely make a reservation beforehand as it was busy! Menu had lots of variety and the dessert specials were to die for. Everything was delicious - highly recommend the calamari appetizer and the complimentary bread was fantastic. I just about licked my dinner plate clean (get the duck breast)! Friends loved the fried chicken and the salmon. Wine list was great and service was wonderful. read more

Miss Lucy's Kitchen - New American Near Me - Saugerties, New York

We were eager to check out Miss Lucy's as one of the more popular spots in Saugerties. Thankfully it wasn't too annoying to get a reservation and we found the spot to be busy and popular among locals and tourists alike. Walking in we were seated promptly though we immediately noticed that the interior was extremely dark. Not a big deal but worth flagging for older folks who might have a hard time reading. Our server was friendly and relatively attentive and walked us through the menu. We started off with some classics including their bread and butter (which was tasty and delicious) and ordered their P.E.I Mussels ($19) along with their Fried Brussels Sprouts ($15) to share. The portions were quite large for everything (great if you're in a larger party) but we immediately noticed that the mussels they served seemed a bit off. Many of them were not opened all the way (a sign that they might not be the freshest or recently passed) and had a bit of a fishy taste to them. We ended up not finishing them and flagged them to our waiter. The other items, including the 14oz Ribeye ($43) and baby back ribs ($28) were better, though a bit one-note. The bay back ribs in particular were extremely saucy and the corn bread was dry and a bit tough to eat. I had to use a knife to split it apart as it kept crumbling every time I used a fork. Regardless, it seems like a popular spot for a reason and perhaps we just went during more of an off-night. I'd still recommend checking it out but avoiding the mussels if you go. read more

We really enjoyed our dinner here while hanging out in Saugerties. It was definitely a bit dark inside, but not a bother. Will def try the brunch offerings next time we are here in town. read more

I dunno. Restaurants in the Woodstock, Kingston, Saugerties area are not the best. Lucy's is below par. Food is poorly seasoned--actually lacking even basics. Service? OK but understaffed, which really affects food. Ambiance- it's a bar with tables. read more

A little crowded (holiday weekend), a little loud, locally sourced farm to table, great food and excellent service--Miss Lucy's came up in someone else's review when they mentioned it's better than Blackbarn. I tried both places and they were 100% correct. You can order anything and be happy but you HAVE to try their cobbler or bread pudding, so check out their dessert board. Also, reservations are highly recommended--I think I saw them have to turn people away during their dinner rush. Cheers! read more

This has been a reliable " go-to" dinner spot for us for over a decade. It remains consistently very good, though I wish they could recruit a head chef to jump the creativity and breadth of their offerings. Pretty formulaic at present.....albeit good! read more

Went here for brunch recently, and found it to be very cozy inside. The ambience was lively and joyful. I had an omelette with home fries and a salad. They were out of home fries, so substituted french fries. The service was OK. I found the staff a little bit unfriendly, even though I was sitting right at the bar in front of them. They were much more friendly with people that they seemed to know. Overall, this is a great place to grab a drink or brunch. The food and the vibe are good. read more

There are a bunch of places to dine in Saugerties and on Partition Street. Luckily, we made reservations ahead of time. The place was packed and we watched walk-ins get turned away. Granted, it was a Saturday night (6pm) on Labor Day Weekend, but we know the real reason; Miss Lucy's has great food. The place is a bit loud, so we concentrated on the Menu/Scene/Food. They started us off with a FREE Bread Basket; a unicorn these days. Split a Kale Caesar to start. Definitely not my go-to, but the Pickled Onions, Dressing and Sourdough Croutons added punch to the dish. The Buttermilk Fried Chicken was excellent. Juicy and moist, and not at all greasy. Pork Schnitzel was a big portion, pounded thin and full of flavor. The dessert menu was large, and a bit of a challenge to choose just one. We decided on the Sweet Corn & Blueberry Bread Pudding topped with Currant Swirl Ice Cream & Pistachio Streusel Topping. This was excellent ! I need to go back to Miss Lucy's...like 5 more times. One thing I noticed was that the whole staff; Bartenders, Wait Staff, etc were all women. A very good thing to see ! read more

Great food, service and ambiance. Food was delicious and reasonably priced ! My salmon Benedict was great and it came with said salad/ good dressing and fantastic home fries with whole baby potatoes- amazing! Would def return if in the area. Only negative is that when the dining room is full, which it was today, it was very loud acoustically . As people left, the sound was better. Nice menu for brunch. read more

We nabbed a Friday night reservation here while in town for the weekend. It is located right in the little "downtown" area where a bunch of other restaurants are. Dimly lit establishments with a very moody vibe - perfect for a date night. What we ordered: - Mocktail (not sure what was in it, but I asked for a sweet/tangy drink, and they delivered on that) - Fried Brussels Sprouts (maple gastrique & smoked shallot aioli) - very tasty! We are currently on a Brussels sprouts kick and this one was nicely done - P.E.I. Mussels (white wine, grainy mustard, cream, scallions, shallots & crostini) - literally the star of the night, I would come back just for this. That sauce is so tasty, luckily I saved some of the complimentary bread to dip in it because the crostinis were a little too toasted and hard for our taste - Kale Caesar (sourdough croutons, & pickled red onion) - we added chicken, it was tasty and different with the pickled red onions - Bell & Evans Buttermilk Fried Chicken (house made cheddar biscuit, brussels sprouts & hot honey) - this one was disappointing. The chicken was fried well, crispy and light but it was so bland. It does come with hot honey and that did help but it was just not good taste-wise. The cheddar biscuit was ok - I was thinking it would be more seasoned as well like the iconic cheddar bay biscuits but it was not The waitstaff were great. I asked for some ice to go as we were in an Airbnb and they packaged some up in a zip lock bag for me. I would recommend this place if you're in the area and definitely order the mussels! read more

Went for a date dinner. The ambience is perfect. The lighting is low, the noise is great for conversations that won't be over heard. Our dinners were fantastic. The calamari was fresh. Our server was kind and attentive. read more

Overall, the atmosphere was nice. It was fairly busy for a weeknight when we went, but not so crowded that it felt overwhelming. I always believe the first interaction sets the tone for the night, and unfortunately our initial greeting felt a bit rushed or annoyed, even though we let them know we had an RSVP. That said, the server who took our order was wonderful and really helped turn the experience around. Really enjoyed the appetizers. read more

Super cute small town restaurant with cool vibe and cocktails. I went with my boyfriend for his birthday and the appetizers, entrees and dessert were all delicious. We ordered a salad, mussels, burrata, chicken rice bowl and the dubai chocolate ice box cake. The waitress is very kind and attentive as well. read more

3.5 stars We grabbed a quick dinner here with visiting the little town. Ordered the Forbidden Bowl with salmon and the regular salmon dish. They were delicious and the portions were hefty. No drinks - no apps. With tip, it came to $82, which we found a bit steep for the area and the overall taste (though good, as I said.) The bread was indeed very good, but they charge for the second bowl! (We didn't get a second bowl). Also, the service was just okay. The waitresses didn't smile, spoke pretty low and didn't come back to check on us at all. The ambiance was cozy, but the lights were very low, almost making it hard to read the menu. read more

Good food, nice interior, get place to visit if you're in Ulster County, eclectic menu to select from!

Grabbed Saturday brunch with another couple last weekend. Had heard good things about this place but never stopped even though we are only 8 miles away. Located in the Main Street/Partition Street corridor, there is a cool downtown vibe. Street parking and a Public Lot nearby make for easy access. I got the Egs Benny and it was served with amazing potatoes and a light and tasty salad. Eggs were cooked perfectly and seasoned well. Waitress was attentive and accommodating. I also ordered a Bloody Mary and a local craft beer because I could. The Bloody was decent, not mind blowing but still tasty. Oh and I ordered a dozen oysters while I was at it. They were of the small variety but tender, clean and amazing. Prices were reasonable to the area. Definitely will be back. No photos this time, sorry. read more

Another restaurant that's been in the area for awhile but that I have never managed to try - until now. It was...good. Good fried calamari - a little salty. Good burger. Good fries. Kale caesar was serviceable - could have lived without the pickled onions, but my husband liked them. Service was friendly and efficient. Too many fans and vents - we had to switch tables to avoid drafts. I'm not sure this is a destination spot, but will do for a decent meal. read more

My wife and I came on a Thursday afternoon. The eating area is quaint and simple. The exposed brick gives it a great vibe. I can only imagine this place on a busy weekend. The service was spectacular. There was only 1 waitress and she was moving so fast. There were about 5-6 tables and she served all of us well. She came 2-3 times to ask how our food was and also refilled our water multiple times. The food was delicious. I was surprised with the portions. I wasn't expecting to have such a big sandwich and a generous portion for the sides. The fried brussel sprouts were delicious. The chicken sandwich I had was not oily and the sauce tied in the sandwich well. I'm not a fan of the peppers but I think that's a personal opinion. All in all this is the spot to eat when you visit Saugerties. read more

Amazing food and service and atmosphere! A place to see and be seen! Lots of fun! Prices not too bad either!

This is a restaurant that I have always loved since I moved to Saugerties. But tonight was the most disappointing New Year's Eve dinner I have ever had. Chicken liver appetizer was served with white bread that had been grilled part of it burnt part of it not not something you would serve with chicken liver pate. Two of us had gray short ribs, dry lumpy polenta I'm just in the state of shock.... Definitely an off night read more

Maybe I'm being super generous here but I do think Miss. Lucy's deserves 5 stars. Came here on a whim on my way up to Saratoga with my girls for my bachelorette and the pangs were coming in hard! Thankfully my MOH... my ladywoman had all the food figured out. So we stopped here. As per usual we split our lunch. We opted for the burrata and a roasted beet salad and we added in some pickled red onion with the salad. When I tell you both items were incredible... they are incredible! I know we both thoroughly enjoyed our lunch. My cousin wound up getting the Kale Caesar Salad with Grilled Chicken and my future sister-in-law opted for a Beet Salad. They also enjoyed their meals. When I return to Saugerties best believe I will be back here because it was damn tasty! Service was a little slow but I learned that us downstate folk are used to being on the go at a rapid pace. The whole vibe in the restaurant reminds me of an old bar and it was dark but not too dark. Just perfect. Loved the brick walls. read more

Alright, so I thought this place was actually a 4 star, but I upgraded them because they upgraded me... we arrived at prime time on the night before The Garlic Festival, and they were packed. We had been calling them for a while to make a reservation but their line was constantly busy. Our friends asked for a table of 7 when they arrived before us. We waited 15 or 20 minutes and we're sat at a 6-top with an extra chair at one end. It was pretty tight, so when the folks at the great big table behind us were leaving, I asked for us to switch. As an ex-restaurateur, I would not want to give a potential 9 or 10 top to 7 people, but they did it for me because there were no reservations on it. It was much more comfortable. The food was very good. I liked the Brisket Tacos (tacos change day to day) and they make a nice tasting ice tea. My Ribs dish was pretty darn good too. My friends loved the Brussel Sprouts and the Scallops dish... I'm not crazy about dim lighting but I realize it's "a thing" so I won't hold that against them! The service was very good. It's no wonder they were so busy. read more

Cute spot to eat in town. We got oysters ($30 for a dozen) as an appetizer which I don't usually get but according to my friends they were mid (5/10). They came with two sauces, a sweet and sour one and a vinaigrette one. The sauces were both very strong. The brisket sandwich ($15) was a hit. A lot of meat on wonderful ciabatta bread. The PLT ($15) was average. The pork was dry and not super flavorful. The fries were slightly above average. Crispy but not enough seasoning. Service was excellent. Overall I would definitely recommend the brisket sandwich. Brisket 8.06 / 10 Overall 6.78 / 10 read more

My happy place. Seasonal dishes, locally sourced. An ever changing menu. Weekend brunch is divine - especially the smashed fingerling potatoes. Exceptional Benedict sauce. Rotation of soups are superb. The calamari is light and almost always perfectly cooked. It's missed once or twice - but when it's on, chef's kiss. Always pushing for really wonderful food. read more

We were visiting Saugerties, New York for a girls weekend. Someone had recommended this place for brunch so we decided to step by Sunday morning. We were the first ones there and we were able to pick our table which was really nice. The downside was we had to wait nearly 40 min for our breakfast. There were only three of us in our party and when we got our food did arrive, two out of three meals was correct. Food presentation was great. I will say the sausage egg and cheese breakfast biscuit sandwich was delicious. I ordered the PLT upon a recommendation and I thought it was just OK. The place is nice. It's not too big. Has a nice little bar. Front table has a nice view. Staff was friendly. read more

Such great food! Any time we're in the area we stop in but I recommend a reservation.

Food was excellent! The sauce in the macaroni & cheese was delicious, the soup was hearty and well balanced, the liver mousse was delightful you can build your perfect bite, the mussels were in a delicious sauce with a perfectly grilled bread and the chicken sandwich was tender and juicy with crispy fries fried to perfection. Unfortunately the apple crisp was not. The butter must have been exposed it tasted like it absorbed nearby flavors or maybe it was stale. The service was good, attentive and knowledgeable. The ambiance is quaint and unpretentious. I love all the seasonal options. If I lived nearby I would definitely try them again. Don't miss this small town gem! read more

This cozy bar/restaurant nails it every time! Great service, cute ambiance, amazing food, and delicious cocktails! I love their oysters, house made bread and french onion soup! So good!!! Last night we also shared the fried chicken and short ribs with pureed parsnips! Everything was excellent! Can't wait for our next ski trip so we can stop here on the way! This place is amazing! I always intend to take pictures, but the food is too good and I just end up diving in. Next time! read more

I am sad to report that the recent return to Miss Lucy's fell short of prior visits by a wide margin. While the scollop risotto and the amberjack entrees could not have been better, the grilled peach and arugula salad was extremely disappointing and the staff response to us rude. The grilled peaches arrived ice cold and without any grill marks. Also they were unripe, mealy, and had an unpleasant taste. The arugula was fresh and nicely dressed. When we questioned the presentation and quality of the peach slices, our server firmly told us that they were as they should be and that we could have another salad if we like. We said wanted the arugula but could not believe anyone in the kitchen could think the peaches had a good taste and were properly prepared. Her manager came over and said she would talk to the chief. We heard later from the manager that the chef did not think the peaches were correctly prepared and they would be more selective of the fruit and grill them longer in the future. So we were very surprised to see the full charge for the salad on the bill and to hear from the server that "we ate the salad so we are charged for the salad" even though we could not eat the main feature of the salad due to mistakes the chef acknowledged. The conversation became unpleasant as the server refused to recognize our concern. We dropped the subject, paid the bill and left. The salad was a minor part of the meal but the handling of their quality problem and their willful disregard of our unhappiness overshadowed the excellent entrees and will cause us to not return to Miss Lucy's. It also spoiled the evening. We wish them well but hope they find better ways to treat their fans. . read more

We came here for dinner because of the popularity in the area and the super strong ratings on Yelp but sadly the food didn't quite measure up for us (the service was so kind however). There are so many noteworthy, truly unique spots to dine at in the Hudson Valley and unfortunately this one didn't hit the mark for us. The meal was started by some slightly warm but otherwise quite hard / bland bread and really cold butter. The drinks didn't arrive until 30+ minutes into the meal - my partner's grape cocktail wasn't great/particularly high quality but my wine was solid. Next came the simple baked sprouts topped in spicy mayo. The main course arrived about 1.5 hours into dinner - scallops on risotto (quite salty with the risotto butter-loaded/heavy) and chicken pot pie (fine but the best part of the meal, the duck was sold out). read more

Stumbled upon Saugerties and this place for lunch today, and boy are we glad we did! The menu is small, but what's on it is really, really good. We were there on a Sunday, which meant there were brunch offerings in addition to the regular menu. One person got the egg and cheese sandwich, which came on a homemade biscuit. Excellent and fresh! Another person got the burger and said it was very good. I had a BLT -- which was excellent! The sandwiches came with fries, which were also very good -- not too oily, not too salty. Servers all super nice -- definitely recommend! read more

Love this place so much! This just so perfect as a slice of small town America, but with yummy food that can appeal to all. This is great because: - The food is so well done and has amazing flavors (I had Onion Super and sampled Mac & Cheese - heart and lovely) - The prices - inflation hasn't hit this one (yet) - Simply stunning cocktails with fun names - Staff that is lovely, caring, and smiles.... This pretty much great for everything: - Friend groups - With parents (of all ages0 - WIth people who like to drink - With people that drink less - 1st Dates - 7th Dates This is however bad for: - Break ups (too memorable) - Small kids (a bit too dark) - People who like fancy meals over good taste read more

Taste- and style-wise, Miss Lucy's was just what we were looking for in a restaurant for a nice lunch before heading back to NYC last Friday. My boyfriend had been craving steak, so I picked this place in part because steak frites were on the menu. He enjoyed it, and from the couple of bites I stole, I can attest it was delicious. I ordered a pork sandwich with a side salad that hit the spot. The waitress was nice, and Miss Lucy's has a good selection of tap beers, cocktails, etc., to choose from. The vibe inside is dark and chic, good for casual dining or dressing up a little for a date night. Wish I had more time in Saugerties, as the town looks super cute, but I am glad we were able to discover this place. read more

Had a decent brunch here. French toast with berry compote was good. Bacon egg and cheese sandwich and salmon Benedict also decent. Lively place with good service. Nice place to start a morning pottering around the local stores. read more

What a lovely evening, the food was EXCELLENT, we had the Salmon with some kind of magical green beans, mushrooms, and roasted small potatoes, perfect in every way- we also had a side of the baked macaroni and cheese, my husband couldn't stop- the service was top notch , can't wait to return with friends! read more

We came here for dinner on a Sunday night during our trip and the place was half full or half empty. We ordered the tacos as an appetizer, which were pork belly for the night. The tacos overall had good flavor and the pork was cooked right, but it was a little heavy on the sauce, which was probably a Thai chili. For dinner, the wife ordered the pan-seared scallops and I ordered the baby back ribs since the fried chicken was sold out for the night. The scallops tasted fresh and had a good flavor to them. The ribs were cooked right and falling off the bone and had good flavoring with the sauce. The service was good, and the place had a cool look. The prices are more city prices than small town prices, but what isn't expensive nowadays thanks to Brandon? read more

Best Cobb Salad ever. The service was really good. They even serve bread with the salad and it is well worth eating. But so noisy that it took away some of the fine food joy . read more

After reading all the great reviews I had to try this place. This is one of those places that opens at 5pm. It was busy on Saturday evening 6pm. Hardly greeted when I came in. Dimly lit. Was Asked to sit at the bar. Bar tender was really busy so took a while for acknowledgment. Not the warmest. I ordered a drink, even asked what type of vodka they had and requested the titos, then never got my drink. I waited a while caz she seemed busy. Then it showed down and I thought maybe she forgot and she'll remember when she looks at me. Nope, never got it, had ordered my food at the same time since she asked. No conversation until after my food arrived and she asked if I was good after. I got the hanger steak which was good but cooked well done. I asked for medium well. The potatoes were delicious. I'd give this place another shot when it's not so busy. read more

Great spot for dinner right on the main drag. Was up here during the Garlic festival and the place was packed. We got some of the fried chicken, mussels and the rice bowl. All great food.
