Annarella Ristorante

“food is spectacular and the staff is such a pleasure. Ordered takeout Friday night and ended up not getting the desserts I ordered and called in and was told to come back the next night. The same girl that helped me at the door the first night ensured me I could come back the next night and get my dessert and not only did I get it, but she gave me an extra two desserts! Both the desserts and the food we ordered were fantastic. I’ll come here everytime I’m in the area!”

“We initially found out about this place by trying some of their sauces during the 2025 garlic festival. They were delicious, so we had to try the food. The restaurant is nice and spacious with a bar area, and while there was ample open seating, we were seated at a table in-between two other parties. We didn't care though, and we understood the reasoning as the restaurant began to fill soon after. The wait staff was very courteous and knowledgeable about the food and drinks. We decided to go with the Pollo Al Limone and the Pacherri. Both were delicious. The lemon on the chicken was perfect and did not overpower the rest of the dish. The braised beef was tender and flavorful on the paccheri, and the accompanying rigatoni was cooked to the perfect texture of my liking. Of the cocktails, I tried the French 77, which was light and bubbly, and the Dr. Fox, which was a bit stronger, but still tasty. We finished with an espresso and creme brulee, which were good. Overall, an excellent experience and not what I would've expected in rural NY. Definitely better than quite a few of the restaurants we've tried in the city.”

“This was my first time and I loved it. Had a great meal starting with veal parmigiana and penne pasta. Escarole and beans dish was delicious. We will be back !!”

“Excellent all around! The atmosphere was homey and welcoming. The service was polite and efficient. The food was top-notch. We travelled from an hour away celebrate our wedding anniversary and we are happy that we did. This was our first visit and we will be back.”

“Annarella Ristorante, saugerties N.Y. A quaint italian eatery, salad had a nice citrus flavor,mozzarella fried with marinara sauce,lightly battered. Chicken limone with spinach was extremely bland,very disappointing also the lasagna was overcooked and bland,pork chop had nice flavoring but overall its difficult when food is bland and salt/pepper goes a long way during cooking process. Today was a miss, truly disappointed with flavor profile. The chef has to take more care in cooking with spices,perhaps taste the food because today was a total miss.”
