Please help with suggestions for high-end dining within a 30 minute radius from Cold Spring. Any opinions on the Valley Rest. in Garrison? Thanks.

Please define "high end dining" in terms of price, etc. And, also, what type(s) of food?

Here are some places either in or N of Cold Spring that I really enjoy. All have excellent food and service.

Cold Spring:
Hudson House (Steaks)
Cathryn's Tuscan Grill

Downtown Fishkill (15min)
Il Barilotto (Italian)
Sappore Steak House

Wappingers Falls (20min)
Aroma (Italian)
Inn at Osborne Hill

Stormville (30min)
Harralds

Here's another recommendation for Hudson House, right on the water in Cold Spring. They've got a great brunch.

Without any response from you, I'll second the recommendation for Cathryn's Tuscan Grill in Cold Spring.

Thanks for the replies - Howard - by high-end I mean restaurants that are known to have excellent food, service and ambience - money no object. French, Italian, New American food are all O.K. and nothing too formal/stuffy.
Thanks for trying to help.

Then, Cathryn's Dolcigno Tuscan Grill (its full name) definitely fills the bill.
