    Ghanachanga
    Cecilia L C.

    Best Ghanaian fusion!!! Family and I enjoyed everything on the menu (coconut shrimp, Cajun mac n cheese, fried okra, jerk chicken, Ghanachanga, Mama G oxtail, Oceana Bounty). The chef put his foot in it, lol. We loved the fusion of world's cuisine mixed with Ghanaian flavors. Definitely coming back as a local. Compliments to the chef for great food, great vibes, and oh let me not forget the drinks were on POINT!!! Ghana Punch yes please!! Medasi

    We were here for the soft menu opening. I am so excited for this place!!! The food is unbelievably good and the service and attention are incredibly passionate. The restaurant is new, so they are still working out some kinks on timing, so it's important to be patient. They will start lunch service and brunch soon. The menu is really excellent and tailors to many different tastes, really embodying the "world cuisine" In the title. Chips and salsa were brought to the table right after you sit down. Drink orders come soon after. The cocktails are incredibly creative, tasty, and potent. Remember to designate a driver beforehand or you could get carried away and end up in an Uber. My favorite surprise was finding a picture of the crazy girlfriend in the bottom of my Captain Lawrence IPA. We had: Chicken wings Coconut shrimp Lobster bisque (with grilled cheese) Spaghetti carbonara Jerk chicken Jollof rice Chicken tacos (corn tortillas) Each dish was absolutely fantastic. Warning on the jerk chicken - it has a serious kick for the faint of heart. Also, the chicken was dark meat only (personally, my favorite, but may not be for everyone). Chicken wings weren't spicy at all and not overly crispy, just how I expected them. They were perfect. I wouldn't have minded extra spice, but they rocked, nonetheless. The lobster bisque had a ton of flavor and you could get little bites of the lobster throughout the bowl. I thoroughly enjoyed the soup. The grilled cheese was a nice touch for those that like to dip. Jollof rice had deep flavor and A perfectly cooked texture. The chicken tacos come in soft flour tortillas and also had great flavor. The coconut shrimp were off the hook. They were crispy, with a sweet taste of coconut, and were perfectly matched with the accompanying dip. Kudos to the all gender bathrooms!!! Walter, Tara, and Jessica made us feel right at home and were incredibly friendly. We would come back just to hang out with them. There is a great private room in the back that's a bit quieter than the main area, which was very loud and rocking on this first night. The private room has a great chandelier and potential. I really love the energy and vibe in this place. Welcome to the neighborhood and I can't wait to come back and bring more people with me.

    Food is good to great Owner has a lot on his plate and is working out the kinks When I finally met him I was surprised at how laid back and friendly he actually is Menu is super diverse favorites for myself Fried Okra Brisket Jollof Peanut soup with mutton Oxtails I always order to go The establishment has a cool lounge vibe After hours bar attracts a younger crowd

    Jollof Rice w. Plantains, calamari, wings, fish n chips, jerk chicken w. Plantains and jollof rice

    All of the food is GREAT here. You can really tell they use quality ingredients. My fish is always crispy, fresh and NEVER bland. The jerk chicken is delicious...a perfect fusion of flavors from across the globe! The calamari...don't get me started . I wish I took a picture of the fufu and goat soup! Love the service with friendly staff. I get my food in a timely manner, and they are so accommodating when it comes to my dietary needs. Also, the Chef (who happens to be a FOOD NETWORK STAR) comes out to check on his customers very often. Not very common in restaurants out here. And it should be. Thanks, Chef Lawrence! Ambiance: Family and friends welcome, with great music

    Shrimp and grits with side of bacon

    I am hard to impress an impress they did! I had shrimp and grits. I was surprised by how delightfully spicy the sauce was. Not dumbed down for the American palate but when mixed into the grits the flavors were scrumptiously well balanced. My leftovers made a great lunch the next day. Very friendly staff. Chef came out to ensure we liked it!

    Where do I start upon entering this establishment you are greeted by amazing service and friendly faces. The ambience is very neutral and it is a great place for a date brunch or even a little nightlife. The service is incredible. Only to match the savory, unique and delicious meals that are served, we even had the owner and chef present us with our meals which gave it that extra special touch. I cannot begin to rave about the entrées and appetizers and drinks. Everything was incredible. We even asked the chef if he had a couch to sleep off the food coma from this incredible food one thing that was noticeable was the fusion that the chef Ofori did with his Ghanaian roots and other cultures, such as tacos, and also jerk chicken. To say the least this is a must try if you are a foodie or just someone who wants a Great Meal!

    Oxtail Soup
    Daniel L.

    The atmosphere gives one a cool relaxed feeling. The coconut shrimp appetizers wer out of this world. Unfortunately they didn't have Cow Foot soup, as I suppose it's so rarely ordered (Similar to all other places I've encountered in Westchester). The oxtail soup was superb and the plantains were absolutely delectable. We had the rice as a side which complemented the experience.

    Great place! Drove an hour to eat here and it did not disappoint, such good flavor in everything!

    It's a great addition to the Peekskill area. The atmosphere is fun! Great music! Friendly and attentive staff And the food..... Where to start? CHICKEN If you love chicken wings you have to try the mango habanero. Now I've tried 2 entrees so far. And they were both excellent. 1st was the Ghanachanga. It's their version of a chimichanga with jollof rice and steak on the inside. It's very filling delicious and only $13. Then there was the the Ghana style jerk chicken. I don't even know where to start with this. All I can say is YES. It was juicy, flavorful and definitely brought the Heat . (Not overpowering though) I will definitely be back. And keep y'all updated!!!

    Hennessey Wing Dynasty

    The food was amazing, filled with so much favor and passion. Drinks were good and service was very accommodating. The restaurant is cute and intimate inside with music playing. I'd definitely come back to try other delicious dishes. At the end of our meal, the owner stopped by our table and spoke with us. He was very kind and down to earth. Check this location out if you love flavorful unique dishes!

The restaurant was extremely busy and clearly understaffed -- there were only two servers working incredibly hard. Service was definitely slow, but I give them a lot of credit for doing their best under the circumstances. They were very gracious and even brought us a complimentary drink to apologize for the wait, which was a really nice touch. Despite the delays, the food was excellent. The nachos were great, the French dip and chicken sandwich were both very good, and honestly, the fries were some of the best I've ever had. We also tried their house-made beer, which was delicious. One thing to note is the layout of the restaurant. It's right next to (and partially within) the arcade, so it can get very loud with lots of kids running around and yelling. I can definitely see the appeal for parents -- being able to eat and have a drink while keeping an eye on their kids is a big plus. For those without kids or looking for a quieter, kid-free night, it's just something to be aware of. That said, I'd love to come back in the summer and sit on the outdoor deck along the water. Overall, a cool spot with great food.

Past three times I've been, they have been dry to the point of overcooked and hollow. But the burgers are good and other menu items are also tasty. Disappointing that they shut down early weekdays. Especially Wednesdays! lol. Dining area holds plenty of seating indoors and out. View of Hudson River is awesome! Staff are all good people! Bar outside is not too bad. Good social spot! Like I said. I like this place and will still visit. So solid two thumbs up.

    We know we really upset one of the owners by our last review, but if you don't get good feedback,…read moreyou can never improve. I love your restaurant. The last time I ordered takeout I got a salad with micro greens and some of the micro greens were already rotting. Nobody likes that. The toasted bun was old. We can tell it's almost a curse to have multiple taste buds and be a super taster, which is what we technically are. All we can say to the owners is that your staff, and we've been through this before with even Michelin starred restaurants that when people stop coming to your restaurant, there's something terribly wrong. We're begging the owners to please do something! When we used to go there for lunch,, I had many a happy vegan burger. Yet this is no longer the case because your staff is completely demoralized. Your food sits in the walk-in and rots because you don't have enough business. Last time we were there for lunch, or maybe it was the time before that, the bar was filled to capacity and people were laughing and joking. We were the only people in the restaurant last time we went, and then the pick up order was the death blow. Please, Owner do something! Do happy hour. Make a seasonal menu. There's something really wrong going on here and I don't see anyone addressing it. We truly hope you take this in the right spirit because we don't want our local restaurants closing, especially ones that we really enjoyed. The casual atmosphere, of the politeness and professionalism of the servers is great. One suggested we have is that your restaurant is pretty hard to find even though it's on the main street in Croton On Hudson. There are no outside signs and we walked past it so many times it's not funny. If you can't think of anything to improve your business, then if we were you, and we're not you, we would just close and cut our losses. Owners please use your imagination or ask other successful restaurants what they are doing because we know you have at least two others. Please do something to save your restaurant. We don't eat at McDonald's we never have. We've never had a fast food hamburger in our lives! It's the disgusting smell that got us and this was before I was vegan or vegetarian same goes for my husband. It would hurt us personally, even though it's not our restaurant to see you close . Maybe you overextended yourselves we have no idea, but one of the owners or investors must do something if you want to save this restaurant! DO SOMETHING! Please getting angry at us for telling our honest picky opinion is not going to pick up your sales. You should also invite feedback because then you know which mistakes you're making with the public instead of having a fit because somebody wrote a negative review of your Restaurant. If you would take the time to look at our reviews, you would see at the beginning we gave you five stars and now we just can't in all honesty and we're not gonna lie about it. Wishing you the best of luck and we know you don't like being told what to do, but you must do something unless you just are going to close this restaurant. You're paying people, except the weight staff of course, decent money we assume. Please don't waste all this effort that you already put in unless you think it's a better idea just to close. We're very sorry we had to write this review.

    A wonderful dining experience. Food is delicious with interesting creative flavors. Wait staff…read morepleasant and hospitable. Connie D

The space itself is spectacular, and the views are absolutely magnificent; definitely a beautiful way to start the evening. We were seated immediately, which was appreciated. Unfortunately, the service felt a little off throughout the night. The servers did their job, but they weren't particularly attentive or especially friendly, which took away from the overall experience. We both ordered the three-course meal from the Cherry Blossom Spring Menu. My wife had a non-alcoholic drink that she loved, while I ordered the Blueskin's Bounce, a rye cocktail with cherry liqueur. My drink was just okay. For her meal, she ordered the local burrata, the Chilean sea bass, and the black sesame cheesecake. She really enjoyed the sea bass, but the cheesecake was disappointing. I had the tuna crudo, the cherry-glazed duck breast, and the cherry blossom panna cotta. Unfortunately, the duck was extremely tough, almost impossible to cut or chew, and the panna cotta was bland and forgettable. Overall, despite the stunning atmosphere and views, the food and service did not live up to expectations, especially for a birthday dinner. Sadly, I wouldn't return.

Just a regular bar charging luxury prices for something that costs $5 at a bodega. I get inflation, I get markups -- but this felt more like a scam than a splurge. The staff didn't mention any service charge or pricing beforehand, which makes it feel even worse. If you enjoy overpriced drinks and surprise charges, maybe this place is for you. Otherwise, save your money and go somewhere that respects its customers.
