This is a review of El Gato Negro - the Black Cat's new dinnertime alter ego. For a review of 'The Cat' see my previous review.The apps, 'mocktails', and desserts were all really delicious. We had the Spanish Olives, Marcona Almonds, Squash Blossoms, and Fennel Salad. All were tasty but the squash blossom dish was uniquely wonderful - fresh, light, flavorful.They do not have a liquor license so we enjoyed 'mocktails'. Filled with a variety of fresh fruits, veggies, and herbs we liked all of the ones we tried. Though if I had to pick a favorite it would be the Red Panther Sangria (my least favorite was the Tropicalico which I found too banana-y).The desserts were also fabulous. We tried the molten chocolate cake, black forest cake, and best of all the key lime pie which was one of the best ones we've ever tasted (very tangy).But the entrees were disappointing. I don't know if it is a failure of the chef or the equipment but neither our steak nor the paella was cooked at a high enough temperature. The quality of the ingredients was there...just not the fire.Our medium rare steak was undercooked on the outside and overcooked inside - warm and barely pink instead of warm and red. Perhaps more disappointing was the paella which came across as a kind of steamed rice - too wet and no socarrat (chewy, caramelized crust) on the bottom.All in all I strongly encourage you to try El Gato Negro and we certainly anticipate returning. And hopefully they will work out their issues with the 'fire'.

Art Cafe's cuisine is inspired by the many coffee shops that you might find in the streets of Tel Aviv and Europe, with a mix of traditional Israeli recipes and some new creative flavors. Not only do we have a passion for great taste but we also focus on

We were looking for a lunch spot while traveling. Of course, I turned to Trip Advisor. This spot is just off the highway a bit; nice little drive through the scenic village of Nyack, NY.Parking is on the street so my be a bit of a challenge but we found a spot just a block away in the downtown area. Lots of cute shops to pass.It is metered parking.The cafe is small but they expand their area with outdoor seating under umbrelled tables.Enter to a host table and wait to be seated. Seating is at tables or we sat at a bench with cushions.They offer a lot of Middle Eastern themed dishes prepared for western taste. They offer a variety of interesting beverages including some alcoholic ones. I had pressed coffee (decaffeinated) and my table mate had yerba mate that was served in a pot. My pressed coffee was a good sized pot that got me several cups.We ordered the mezza plate so we could try a number of idshes. They offer appetizers, salads, sandwiches, breakfast items and a kids menu selection.I will say to be sure to not get seated next to the bathrooms. They had two talbes right at the bathroom door and I felt sorry for the people sitting there. I wouldn't have enjoyed all the extra traffic.They had a pastry counter and we serving a lot of to-go orders.We loved the food and our service was good. Prices were reasonable for the area.

Nyack is known for many restaurants for dinner (Mediterranean, Thai, Japanese, Italian...the list is endless) and incredibly great bakeries, ice cream, pizza, lunch varieties, and vegetarian/vegan options abound. But out of all, Strawberry Place stands out as THE place for breakfast, with the most varied menu, friendly atmosphere and cordial service.
