About this restaurant

  • Neighborhood gem
  • Good for special occasions
  • Lively
The Cookery was founded by Chef David DiBari. Comfortably located in Dobbs Ferry, one of Westchester’s quaintest and most beautiful river towns, The Cookery has embraced the positive energy exchanged from its local patrons and uses it to fuel the quest for great food and ceaseless creativity. The neo-nostalgic Italian menu proves evident of Chef DiBari’s style of cooking, which is to progressively approach simplicity.

    We went for restaurant week but were told they don't do that on weekends! Apps (meatballs & Crostino) were very good. Entrees were disappointing. Pasta special was a bit undercooked (more than al dente). The Osso Bucco (very popular) was just OK.

    Food was delicious. Unfortunately they ran out of my first and second choices….but that’s a good thing, just my misfortune! Compliments to the Chef. Appetizer was super delicious: Crispy Bacon…yummy yum yum

    The occasion was my wife's birthday and we hadn't been there before so we gave it a try. It was Restaurant Week so I ordered off of that menu and my wife used the regular menu. The food was delicious, the service was excellent and we really enjoyed it.

    We were met with a very friendly welcome for Sunday Brunch. There were many wonderful choices. One appetizer, an entree, desert and drink. The duck pate cannolis were one of my favorites. Everything was very good.

    The food and service were great! I want to go back! We did the price fix brunch and it was a great value too! The portions were generous and we all brought food home.
