    Went for a birthday dinner. Service and servers were outstanding. Lovely ambiance and quiet thought to be fair we were there very early evening. Oue sausage appetizer was delicious and a 5. I was slightly disappointed with the half roasted duck. It may be I am spoiled as we have eaten duck all over the world and the best duck I have had, the skin was crispy little to no fat with moist meat below. My duck dish though tasty did not have a crispy skin and the breast meat was somewhat dry. Dessert was classic apple taste and is was good. Overall good experience.

    Nice restaurant and very good food. Service needs attention. We requested two bills, and the waiter mixed up the entire bill. We ended up dividing the bill among parties rather than straighten out the waiter’s errors.

    Went for Mother's Day lunch. Everything was great until a loud waiter, Patrick, waited on the table next to us. Patrick then started talking loudly to the table over the top of our table. It was annoying and rude. He acted like he owned the place and no one else mattered. We had a hard time holding a conversation at our table because of this. The food was okay, but we will not be back.

    Service wasn’t the best, waited 20 minutes for my drink order, appetizers arrived way before the drinks, I think the waitress forgot about the bottle of wine we ordered. The main course took very long . The food was amazing.

    Well, what can I say. Another great "experience" at Le Canard Enchaine - and I use that word...experience...quite intentionally. Exquisite food, lovely vibe, professional service - yet casual, approachable and and very comfortable. I rank this restaurant among my favorite places in the world to have a meal - truly.

    A wonderful experience. You really could be in a brasserie in Paris. The food was wonderful amongst the best in Hudson Valley. Couldn’t speak highly enough about it…..
