Working storm trouble, I googled nearby local restaurants looking for a new dining experience. The hostess and server were incredible. Both were so friendly and knowledgeable when asked about the menu. I was so excited to see Chicken Marsala with spinach on the menu. Working out of town can be a chore when all you eat is fast food. My husband ordered the fried haddock. The chicken wasn't even warm and the Marsala sauce was gummy and pretty disgusting. My mashed potatoes were grey/brown and not even warm. The vegetables were also room temperature without any texture or taste. After trying a bite of each, I stopped. My husband had a large piece of fish so he cut me a nice sized piece. It was breading. About 75% of his "large" fish was breading. I Ate a handful of his French fries and we left. I am so disappointed. The sweet server asked if she could get me something else but we didn't have time as we had to go back to work. read more

After visiting Raymondskill Falls we were ready for a bite to eat before taking the 2 hour drive back to the city. With limited spots in the area to eat we found Sycamore on google and remembered passing it on our way up. The ambiance is lovely with Tiffany lamps hovering above the tables, clean crisp linen tablecloths and rich wood tables. The servers were friendly and we were seated right away. We were Just grabbing sandwiches but the entrees all seemed delicious. Well thought out meals that appear to be concocted to treat the palate. We started with the sausage dip. Something different we hadn't ever had before a mixture of cheese and sausage served with Bavarian pretzel rods. Very similar to a chorizo queso - but not spicy. Our chicken cheese steak and buffalo wrap were brought to us quickly. They were on the smaller side than what we are used to but they were made with intention and served with plenty of fries. With both indoor and outdoor seating a bar area and dining room. Sycamore is a nice place to pop in while exploring the area. read more

If you're at Sycamore Grille and trying to decide on a dish that feels both comforting and refined, the salmon with polenta and green beans is a strong choice--it really brings together a well-balanced plate. The salmon came out beautifully seared, with a crisp skin and moist, flaky interior. It wasn't over-seasoned, just lightly herbed and citrusy, allowing the freshness of the fish to shine. The polenta was creamy and smooth, almost like a rich, buttery mash with just the right amount of savory depth to complement the salmon without overpowering it. The real surprise was the green beans--they had a nice bite and were sautéed just enough to keep their bright color and flavor, tossed with a bit of garlic and maybe a hint of lemon zest. It's one of those dishes that feels hearty without being heavy, and you leave the table feeling satisfied but not stuffed. I'd definitely order it again, especially if you're in the mood for something clean and comforting. read more

Appetizer took a little bit to come out even tho there's only 1 other party here. I will admit there is a very calm, nature, and old timey ambiance here. Hush puppies were decent, a little more on the crunchier side. My garlic parm chicken wings were super saucy, but super soft, I'd rate 8/10. Overall 7.7/10. read more

One tip. Season the food. If you are going to serve shrimp with a Caesar, at least season and grill the shrimp. There was no color and no flavor to our meal. That dish could've been next-leveled but it was below average. Same with the Brussels sprouts and squash-- they should've been seasoned and caramelized. Makes me wonder if a chef is working or just cooks. Please level up. read more

We stopped in for a light snack. We got the Burrata Flatbread and French Onion Soup. It was absolutely delicious. I haven't been there in a while. I forgot how cute the aesthetic is, and the service was great as well. read more

Came here for dinner on Saturday. We had no problem making a reservation. I ordered the sweet sycamore salad which was very good. My husband ordered the same but added filet mignon tips; the meat was very tough, unseasoned, close to inedible -- no way it could have been filet. The service was friendly. Would come back if we were in town. read more

Took my wife here for her birthday. We were excited to see they had horseradish and Parmesan crusted salmon so we both ordered it. To say it was disappointing is being too kind.? Certain it was a frozen food service item. Very fishy and lacked flavor. We would not recommend this place. read more

While out of town I visited this restaurant for dinner. When I arrived I parked in the private lot. I walked in and sat at the bar. Candace was my bartender, and she was working alone for the night at the bar. I ordered the lemon drop martini to start, and it was cool. Then I got the pinot nior. For my meal, I got the maple glazed salmon special. When it came out, it looked great. When I dug in, it needed some salt. I added some, and it was better. The food wasn't bad all in all. read more

First time visiting this establishment and we were pleasantly surprised. We came for an early dinner between 4 and 5 so there were not many people there. We were seated promptly and our waitress was very attentive. Drinks and food were both delicious but heavy on the sauce on the chicken and salmon dishes we enjoyed. read more

Service was great food overall was very good. Braised Short Ribs was Braised Chuck Roast.

What an awesome find! On our way back from North Carolina we were looking for a place for dinner and cocktails. The drinks were outstanding! Try the Yule Mule and the Grinch! Donna, our server, gave us the history of this place. Fantastic! Worth the trip if you're anywhere close. And you have to have the Brie with cherry chipotle as an appetizer. Amazing! My wife had the black bean burger which is made in house. Fantastic. I had the cheese steak which was on point. Highly recommend! Come try it. You won't be read more

Wow, there was some tasty food here! We were driving this way to avoid the highway during a trential downpour which had bumper to bumper traffic so we came across this place purely by accident and we were so happy we did! We had the Brie and fig in a puff pastery appetizer which was so delicious, I could have kept eating that! I had the chicken cheese steak, chicken was lumps of chicken breasts and not shaved which I actually prefer, had a great taste to it and the fries were really good too! My wife had the Black Bean and Polenta which she thought was absolutely amazing and the best meal she's eaten on this trip. They had some live music going which was loud enough to hear but not so loud as to have to shout to be heard at our table. Place was reasonably wheelchair accessible. Good handicap spots out front, no issue getting in, and my wife was able to move around and get into and out of the bathroom in her wheelchair without issues. If you're in the area I'd definitely recommend giving this place a shot! read more

I usually try to stress the positive. In this case that positive is very little apart from a nice but timid server. We live in a nearby town but had never gone to this restaurant and were looking for a nice place for my husband, adult son and I to have a pleasant casual dinner on Christmas Eve. I made reservations for 4:45. But considering the holiday we left early and got there around 4:15. We approached the hostess station, explained we knew were early and were willing to wait. To our surprise our table was available. While the place seemed empty the decor was nice. Servers and staff were bustling around tweaking table settings. We were seated and ordered: DS had a cheeseburger and my husband and I each ordered the fried shrimp platter. Our food arrived fairly quickly. What arrived was shocking. I had when we were on tight budgets gotten sea-pack frozen shrimp. Fair quality for the price. But this was not that price. This was a restaurant. Yet the 6 small shrimp on my plate looked just like them. And tasted just as bland. They were accompanied by a cup of ketchup and a cup of semifrozen cocktail sauce that had no taste at all. The fries had that coating some have. Not spicy or a seasoning but meant to give a crispy effect? In addition there was what I believe was meant to be coleslaw, white cabbage with a sourcream aftertaste to the mayonnaise on it. Our son's burger was charred but otherwise tasteless. As we were eating the hostess stepped behind my husband and told him to move forward to provide more room for the table behind him. My husband is 6ft tall and lanky, hardly the kind to take up space. Nevertheless, he stopped eating and moved presumably for people about to be seated. At some point he realized he needed to use the restroom. After several minutes and having been passed by no less than 8 staff members he finally caught someone's attention. He asked her where the restroom was. Her response was a blank stare and a "what?". He finally said "I need to use the toilet". OK. When he got back we very politely asked the aforementioned timid but delightful server for the check, paid the bill and left what has got to be one of the worst dining experiences of my life. Not to insult the fine folks at Sea Pack but really for the prices, I was astonished. Oh, and that table my husband room for? There was no one in sight to be seated at it. Nor was there anyone waiting in the entranceway. We will not be back. Do not waste your time or money. Can I give it negative stars? read more

Great menu and bar menu. Drinks are good and delicious. We have visited with friends and just strolled in for dinner. Always a good meal.

Ate here for my cousins 40th. Nicole was super helpful and accommodating as well as cut our birthday cake we brought. Service was really quick and smooth. Restaurant itself was decorated very cute for the holidays and very welcoming. Would come back. read more

When traveling, my husband and I like to find local restaurants that offer farm to table-type cuisine and stay away from the chains. Sycamore Grill was our latest such discovery. House special Sycamore Grill salad was a bed of fresh spinach sprinkled with dried cranberries, chopped pecans, crumbled blue cheese and served with house dressing which is a creamy maple dressing is a must try! Either as a side or dinner salad with an added protein. I ordered the Water Gap Sangria which was light and fruity with a peachy overtone. We shared an appetizer of cheesy sausage dip with pretzels but found it a little too salty. The pretzels were obviously freshly made because they were served warm, soft and fluffy inside, brown and salty on the outside. The combination was a little much. Elsie, our server was very efficient, knowledgeable about the menu and never rushed us but was always nearby checking on us. For entrees I ordered one of the nightly specials, Chicken Saltimboca and my husband had the Water Gap Chicken. Both very good, served hot with steamed veggies. For dessert we shared a Cannoli Cheesecake which was a LARGE portion as well as creamy and delicious. I had a cup of decaf with dessert which was freshly made and served with real cream. Tables and chairs are heavy and wooden and set with porcelain plates and linen napkins and cutlery was wiped clean of spots and streaks. Service was excellent, atmosphere relaxed yet conducive for dinner conversation and the best part was the bill was right at $100! Not bad for all we had. They also have happy hour drink specials and outdoor seating if you are traveling with a pet. If we ever get back to the Poconos, we will be back and encourage everyone to give them a try. Ask for Elsie! read more

I really like this restaurant. I've been there once in 2019 and again yesterday. I had forgotten about it in between, during Covid! But this place is gorgeous inside, has excellent, very attentive service, and the food is so good. The french onion soup had a delicious, slightly sweet broth. The baked brie and fig with crackers was super creamy and tasty. The cocktail I had was pear vodka, elderberry liqueur, Moscato, etc. It was really good, especially if you like floral tastes. The Italian chicken and eggplant with pesto risotto and Brussels sprouts was excellent. The pesto risotto was the best part! And my husband's burger and fries were good. The fries were probably the best fries I've had since we moved to the Poconos 2 years ago! So crispy and fresh. What a great place! read more

Summary: food, drinks, service, and even restrooms were all top quality! I visited on a weekday evening, and free street parking was easy to find within a block. Though it was dead at first, it filled up quickly later as game time on the bar TVs approached. Not a wide beer selection, but a reasonable number of drink offerings overall, including several tasty-looking seasonal cocktails. A printed gluten-free menu was available, and the GF bun around my burger was great! read more

Had dinner here for Mother's Day 2024. First visit but will definitely be back. The staff from the front door to the wait staff were courteous, pleasant, patient and efficient. The "back of the house" should be recognized for turning out amazing food with flare and flavor. Chef Verdi has a lovely menu and a flare for serving flavors from several cuisines. The owner of this establishment stopped by our table to see if we were enjoying our afternoon. Just a lovely time with my family for Mother's Day. You should try this restaurant soon! read more

I came to Mount Minsi for my first hike for this summer. Afterwards, I felt like getting a cocktail and I stopped at the closest bar nearby and this is the bar for me moving forward whenever I come back to Mt Minsi. Trish was my bartender, and she was so pleasant and joyful (refreshing to see nowadays). I got myself an app which was filet mignon tips on garlic cheesy bread and my cocktail was just a marg since they don't have any craft cocktails that includes tequila (the only downfall) but she was more than willing to make my request and both of my choices were delicious! I'm more drown by the customer service, I will absolutely come back again! read more

Stopped in for lunch one day recently. Happy to see they're taking COVID precautions seriously! There was a limited menu, but they still have good options. The cheesesteak was enough for two people. Meat was flavorful, ample cheese, and just the right bun to hold up to everything in the sandwich. Thank you for making marinara sauce an option (because it shouldn't be standard or expected!). Loved the battered fries! Only downside was they weren't serving beer on draft, only bottled. read more

We cannot thank The Sycamore Grill enough for making our celebration the best that it could be! When the power went out at our local, booked venue, we were able to do a massive pivot and move our party to their event room, and everything was perfect!

Thank you so much to Lindsey, Jessie, and the rest of the lovely staff at The Sycamore Grill for ensuring that our gathering was fantastic! Everyone had a wonderful evening! read more
