Enjoyed food & ambiance, warmly decorated with vintage posters & dim lighting made for cozy dining. Food was excellent, although a bit pricey, but worth it. Service was superior. Reason for the 4 stars, their inability to provide separate checks for my party of 12.
The service was unparalleled! They were able to sit us at the perfect table for our anniversary. The waitress was so attentive, and Made sure that everything was welcoming. The food was exquisite; flavor in every bite. At the end, they gave us Champagne on the house, for our Anniversary. We will be back!
Fabulous dinner and service. We had a couple of specials of the night... A grilled calamari appetizer and veal chop dinner. I can't wait to go back. Nicole was a great server and everyone was kind. Thank you for a wonderful experience!

Best pork chop I’ve ever had!!!
The server said chef recommended it medium, it was closer go MR. I hate sending book back but for the price I was paying I did (plus I was starving)! When it came back it was perfect!! Absolutely delicious, the accoutrements that came with it I can’t speak for because I didn’t even try them. My BF ordered a special, which was pasta with crab meat. He devoured it, so I’d say it was good too!
I regret not having taken any other pictures but I was so excited to see Stella Cidrè outside of Europe!
Check the menu before you go it’s a very different place, not a run of the mill restaurant. I didn’t think we’d have an issue, but if it wasn’t for the special there would have been nothing my BF Would eat just because the style of cooking and what they prepare and pair main dishes with.
Prefect place for drinks but again way overpriced! $12 for my one beer. The wine list as others have mentioned is extensive with something for everyone but again small pour!!
It’s very small and quaint so if you don’t want to be closer to other people this isn’t the place for you, as we could hear just about every conversation. On that note make a reservation!!!

Beacon is the best and cutest little town! So much to do and so many places to eat so we had a hard time deciding. We picked Cafe Amarcord and were not disappointed. The inside was beautiful and fancy but we chose outdoor dining off to the side. Our waiter (I think Ken) was pleasant and felt natural, like he knew his stuff and wasn't trying too hard.
Our cocktails looked and tasted artisan. I think about $13 each so certainly on the pricey side but my husband and I don't get time out for ourselves too frequently so it was worth the splurge. We got some warm toasty break with this dipping sauce. The bread pretty much serviced as a vessel to get a giant heaping mouthful of the sauce. I asked what was in it and promptly forgot but it was tomato based. Trust me, yummy!!
I had the meyer lemon rabbit. I love lemo but have yet to try rabbit. It tasted like chicken and was over polenta and some braised veggies. I honestly would've liked even more lemon taste or maybe some capers but I would order it again. My husband had the duck ragu and was very happy.
This isn't a place I would go to all the time. It is fancy and pricey but I would certainly go back for an anniversary or special occasion.
The Stuffed Burger is easily the best sit-down restaurant burger in Beacon, possibly in all of Dutchess county. It's the least expensive entree on the menu but is completely mind blowing. I ended up getting the Cuban Mule, which was a drink special and that too was easily the best drink I've had in Beacon. Unfortunately it's not on the regular, but the Cuban Mule really did knock it out of the park.
The ambiance is dimly lit and great for a romantic or chill evening, but I understand that's not for everyone.
The real reason this is only rated 4 stars instead of 5 is because the dessert was just not up to par with the rest of the food. It just seemed like your regular, run of the mill restaurant dessert options in terms of selection and flavor. Not bad, but certainly not great and nowhere near the quality of the rest of the food.
Excellent cocktail and wine list. Tomato salad and pork chop were perfect. Nice ambiance and warm space. Great service.
