I've been coming up to Paupack on the weekends for the last 5 years and know all the restaurants in this area and Rusty Rudder will be my new hang! PERIOD\r
\r
THE LAYOUT of the restaurant is very well done, and in a way that the dining area feels somewhat intimate BC it has been well thought out having family tables in the dining area and private booths on top.\r
\r
THE BAR is tucked away in back from the dining areas and is very tastefully done. If you re looking for an upper scale bar scene you ll get it here. There is a TV in it yet It's not blaring as not to disturb the intimate setting the bar has created.\r
\r
THE FOOD All freshly prepared, real quality, well presented, generous portions and under priced for this level quality. They DO NOT microwave N'serve as most others do!\r
\r
Their HOMEMADE PIZZA IS THE BEST IVE HAD in the area and will put Rusted Rudder on the map! and I'm a New Yorker!\r
\r
SERVICE....Very good, attentive and professional.\r
\r
The vibe is good!...Low level lighting, Sinatra on Saturday, tasteful decor and the crowd is quality. Its family friendly and NO that doesn't mean kids are screaming or running around in here, they are accommodated.\r
\r
In sum Rusted Rudder is a real gem and a long needed addition to this area!
