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 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.

    My wife and I shared the fish sandwich, which is one of their specials - fried flounder with tartar sauce and a slaw on wonderful portuguese bread. For $34 it's pricy but large enough (and delicious enough) for two people! Tonight one of the specials was a chickpea fritter with a fennel pollen yogurt - so creative and so good. Other appetizers were excellent as well - the caesar and duck liver cannoli. One of my absolute favorite restaurants - just really creative, excellent food.

    My favorite place to eat in the Rivertowns. The food never disappoints. While I have my favorites like the radiatore pasta with lamb bolognese, I get excited by the specials and the opportunity to try something new.
