Reviews 3 Westerly Bar & Grill

The restaurant has a nice view of the Sunset 🌅 over the Hudson River. However, it has poor acoustics & it is very loud inside. I was sitting by the large windows overlooking the river & I could hear conversations from the bar located in the opposite side of the restaurant. I highly recommend management adds acoustic tile to manage the sound and sensory overload created in the space from the noise. There was a large family with young children seated in front of me, the children were crying & the echo bouncing off the walls combined with the electronic music made the atmosphere unpleasant. The food was good but not great considering the quality versus cost ratio. I paid $30 for an octopus 🐙 appetizer. I enjoyed the contrasting texture, as it was cooked soft on the inside then finished with a torch which gave it the crispy / crunchy texture on the outside of the tentacles. It was served over a variety of potatoes & grilled lemon which was a nice touch. I dined outside with my family in the summer & we had a nice time watching the sunset. The pizza was nothing special & the other entrees we had were not memorable, but the view was wonderful. The staff is friendly & kind. I do recommend improved training for servers. For example, tonight I came straight from work & was dining alone. I placed my order & went to the restroom. When I returned, I found my food already on the table even though there was no one sitting there. It would have been logical for the sever to wait a couple of minutes & bring the food out after I was seated at the table. Specially since the restaurant was almost empty & there where only 2 additional parties seated including myself. Overall, it is a nice place for groups. Hopefully they will fix the acoustic issue to make the sound level more tolerable. If you are hypersensitive to sound & do not tolerate sensory stimulation well, then I recommend you go elsewhere. I say this specifically for families with neurodivergent children with autism spectrum disorder or sensory processing disorder. Environmentally it may be too much for your kids to tolerate which may affect your ability to have an enjoyable dinner. For now, I probably will not return for indoor dining. (Hopefully management will install the acoustic sound absorbing tiles). I recommend outdoor seating to watch the sunset with a nice group of loved ones 🌅

Lovely spot to enjoy deliciously prepared as well as presented foods while gazing upon the Hudson River. It is the perfect meet-up spot when catching the ferry to Haverstraw too. The menu here is innovatively creative and has much to offer. We enjoyed a fresh beet salad topped with crisp arugula greens. Additionally, the Mussels were plentiful as well as savory. Highly recommend this waterside eatery.

Just a great time. The wait staff is super friendly and attentive! No complaints about the restaurant. It's a little tricky to get to as you have to go over the train tracks on a bridge and then circle around.

While prices are a wee high, Can't beat the view and service. Tap beer delish as were sushi rolls.

I came on a Saturday at 415pm for an early birthday dinner. This restaurant is absolutely beautiful. The decor, the outdoor seating and the view is AMAZING. Upon entry, we were greeted right away and with a big smile and pleasantries. We were give the option to choose where we want to sit anywhere in the restaurant. I appreciated that. Because we had been sitting for a few minutes at the table one server came over to greet us and ask if we wanted drinks until out server arrived because she was just starting her shift. Now THAT IS CUSTOMER SERVICE. Our server was great. Attentive and provided excellent food suggestions. The drinks are really good. Shoutout to the bartender. I enjoyed my pizza. The beef short rib was tender and flavorful. The calamari is yummy. Do I recommend? I say hurry up, run to check out this restaurant.

My bestie took me out for lunch. The views are amazing. Loved the food. The Wagyu steak sushi was yummy. Loved the Lava cake with super chocolatey ice cream. Great date spot. The staff were attentive and welcoming.

Great service, atmosphere, view, food and drinks! The outdoor seating area is safe and well thought out. Good distance between tables, clear wind blockers so you can see the view without being cold, and heaters. Will definitely return!

finally made it here and worth the trip. great food. decor and furnishings go great with the hudson river view. recommend reservations but did it on a walk in and not disappointed. enjoy river views with drinks and food to match. service needs a bit of adjustment. food (5); decor (5); location (4); service (2).
