Hello, Can anyone recommend a restaurant in Poughkeepsie for a rehearsal dinner? 25-30 people in a private area or semi-private area? I've contacted Amici's and Mahoney's but neither has gotten back to me.
We used Cosimo's and really had a great experience. We had a nice private room with an outdoor terrace, they worked within our budget and the food was really great. I highly recommend them!
my future SIL used the riverstation in poughkeepsie and loved it she had about the same amount of people. I am thinking about having it at the Hyde Park Brewery, a little different but the place is renovated and beautiful and we are beer lovers and like their home brewed beer.a little different dining experience but I would like to have a more casual layed back dinner for the rehersal.
I am getting married at The Poughkeepsie Grand Hotel in November and we just recently looked at Shadows on the Hudson for the rehearsal. They have a number of different rooms and the prices are very reasonable.

I'm having mine here on August 5th- I'll let you know how it goes!
Thank you for all the help! Kristin - My only concern with Shadow's is the privacy, is there a private area or do they give you a corner of the restaurant? Also, I had my shower at Cosimo's, but my fi and I love it there, is it weird to have the rehearsal at the same place?
I was going to recommend Cosimos too. If I lived in Dutchess and was getting married there I would do the rehearsal there. I think it's okay to do your shower and rehearsal at the same place. Why not???
Coco's in Hyde Park is great too- have yet to do any wedding functions but my fiancee's parents have events there all the time in the private room and they are very accomodating and SUCH nice people! Good luck!

For a small group, they have a private room- maybe like 30 people? We will be in a corner of the restaurant though- that's ok!
Ours is at Riverstation in Poughkeepsie right by the waterfront and they have a great view of the bridge at night all lit up. We love their food also. It's not as nice looking as shadows on the inside but they have an upstairs room and the food is wonderful.

Food was great, and you can't beat the price.
