Silvia

Sylvia in Woodstock was fantastic! The handcrafted cocktails were incredible—especially the Black Martini and the ginger-infused margarita. The food was just as impressive: the chicken schnitzel with green beans and mushrooms was the best I’ve ever had, and the New York strip was absolutely incredible. From the manager to the wait staff to the bartender, the service was phenomenal—friendly, attentive, and welcoming. We can’t wait to come back! Jim & Jeanette Calverton

The food was good and the only thing keeping it from being a 5 star for me is that nothing really felt special in each dish. The pork chop was great and the richness of everything was well balanced and I can see why the slight bitterness from the vegetable element is placed into the dish, but I’d wish there was more done with this. Simply just charring it wasn’t enough to make it feel relevant to the dish. I felt similar about most of the dishes, although I will say overall it was a good meal and especially for the location it’s a gem in the upstate New York region. The service and atmosphere was great which almost makes it feel wrong to give a 4 star simply because the food wasn’t as great as I believe it could be, but I am basing this on the food alone. I wish I can give it a 4.5 but it’s definitely still a must try if around.

I’ve been here three times and have had a great experience each visit! I’m making sure to FINALLY write a review since they are an absolute must every time I’m in Woodstock. Dishes are seasonal, with fresh, sometimes local ingredients, making their menu perfect for each season we go! I get especially excited for drinks at Silvia, they’re always so tasty and creative! Service is fast, friendly and professional. In summer, the outdoor seating is nicely shaded by nature, which offers a nice break from the sun. In winter, the lounge area is warm, intimate and classy. Looking forward to my next visit, as always!

All I can say is wow! This place blew me away! The carpaccio melted in your mouth. The oysters were fresh and the dill pickle topper was a different but welcomed change from simply using hot sauce and lemon. The lamb chops were cooked perfect and the charred vegetables were extremely tasty. The real star of the show was the prosciutto and fig appetizers however. So good a second plate was ordered, the flavors were really that incredible. Service was great and our waitress was extremely sweet and was on her game. We were served very quickly despite a busy restaurant. Drinks again were very tasty, the espresso martini was a great way to end the evening. If I had one gripe, I wish there was a larger dessert menu with more options. Despite that the lavender chocolate dessert was still up to par with the rest of the menu.

We loved this meal. My sis and I celebrated my birthday with a dinner here and it was truly a wonderful and memorable experience. We were BLOWN away by the quality of the food, particularly the lamb chops, the pasta rags, the crispy chicken. And the whipped butter!! Who knew butter could be so light yet rich and flavorful?! Please eat here, you will not be disappointed.

Loved dining here last night. We sat on the patio with our dog… as the evening turned to night and the lights n lamps were turned on, the place transformed into something even more beautiful than it already was. It was just not the ambience… the food was great and so were the cocktails. Must try the Chicken Schnitzel and smoked beets! The service was quick and yet at a perfect pace. If you are in Woodstock and want to remember one of your evenings, dine here!

Decided to have my anniversary dinner here and let’s just say it really was not special at all. Had to wait about 15 minutes to be sat even though I had a reservation, asked for a booth (maybe they didn’t have any?) got sat at a banquet table between 2 other couples but the host did make it up to us by giving us some celebratory champagne. Food was very fresh and delicious but portions are small. Crazy to say but my favorite part of the whole meal was the honey drizzle on the whipped butter. Ordered 3 different bar drinks, the old fashioned was the best one. Overall it would had been a great experience but our server’s hospitality was terrible. Wasn’t really around much, and when she was, she still didn’t come to the table. As a server myself I always give grace but her service could use some improvement. Ended the night with some dessert, happy to know they were all gluten free! The chocolate mousse was so fluffy and it just melted in my mouth. Would come back but maybe I’ll just sit at the bar next time!
