Las Mañanitas

A nice looking restaurant with a view of a beautiful lake surrounded by woods. Pretty decor, with a Mexican accent. There is a section which has a big fireplace burning while you dine in the winter. There’s a terrace which can be used for events as well as a private dining area inside. The terrace was closed since it was the of November and too cold outside. The restaurant had a nice size crowd for dinner and in the bar area also. The restroom was clean and quaint!
I was a little disappointed with the food, it was on the bland side. The menu is extensive and the presentation was pretty. It was my first time here, but I will give it a second try 🙂

This is one of my favorite restaurants ever! The menu has lots of great choices, the food is excellent, and the service is outstanding. You can eat either inside or out on the beautiful terrace ( weather permitting), with wonderful views of the reservoir and lush greenery surrounding you. It’s incredibly peaceful and a truly unique experience. I’ve never had anything but a great experience there!

Had dinner there for the first time yesterday...Friday night. Place was a lot bigger than I expected...very spacious and nicely decorated. We were greeted and seated promptly. Service was quick and friendly. Complimentary nachos and salsa was very good. Drink menu was great. Food was very good. Place was PACKED when we left. Will def be back.

Las Mañanitas turned our 48th anniversary into an unforgettable evening! After a disappointing experience at another restaurant that we walked out on, we decided to try Las Mañanitas for the first time—and what a smart decision that was!

The manager, Christopher, immediately seated us at the best table overlooking the beautiful reservoir. Within seconds we were greeted warmly by our waitress Bella, and Kevin and the rest of the staff made us feel like family. Christopher even sent over margaritas on the house to celebrate.

The food was amazingly delicious, the view was breathtaking, and the hospitality was outstanding. Thank you to the entire team for rescuing our anniversary and making it so special. La Mañanitas is now our new favorite restaurant in the Hudson Valley!

Oh! Did I mention how affordable our dinner was?
We have not found a restaurant that has better food, atmosphere and hospitality for such a great price!

One of the best Mexican restaurants I’ve ever been to.

Las Mañanitas is the full package: authentic Mexican food, excellent service, and one of the most beautiful views in the area. The location is absolutely stunning—set on a hill overlooking the East Branch Reservoir, with an outdoor patio that gives you panoramic water views surrounded by trees and nature. It’s peaceful, scenic, and the perfect backdrop for a relaxing meal.

The food was fantastic—fresh, flavorful, and truly authentic. You can tell they use quality ingredients, and everything was prepared just right. From the guacamole to the main dishes, everything was delicious. The drinks were also amazing—especially the margaritas.

The atmosphere is cozy, warm, and festive at the same time. Whether you’re sitting inside by the fireplace or outside on the patio, the ambiance is just right. It’s great for a date night, a family dinner, or even special events.

Overall, I highly recommend Las Mañanitas. Great food, great service, and a view that will take your breath away.
