    The food was fresh and delicious with unique ingredients and creative pairings. We were greeted in a warm and friendly manner upon arrival and our server, Julianna, was extremely knowledgeable about each menu item. Looking forward to returning.

    We went for the Hudson Valley wine pairing dinner and it was delicious. It’s great to see the restaurant trying new things to mix up their offerings and love the fact that they have a different menu each day and look forward to trying their new Sunday afternoon serving. Keep up your great creativity!

    Always enjoy a meal at Finnbar. The team is warm and welcoming, the atmosphere is festive yet laid back and the food solid. Caesar salad was excellent. Falafel burger was good although could use a bit more zip. Wine selection wonderful. Always enjoy trying what is new and on the rotation.
