We invite you to Dine On Westchester.
Brimming with global tastes and local flavors, dining in Westchester
County is a delight and a draw. The world has noticed, with awards
streaming in to our restaurant community, from Michelin stars to
best-of lists. Our culinary neighbors have proven their resilience to
feed residents and visitors during the COVID-19 pandemic.
To support this crucial business, we encourage everyone to patronize
Westchester restaurants in whatever way they are serving customers —
take-out, curbside pick-up, delivery, outdoor dining, or other creative
evolution.
Let’s work together!
We know you are working hard to serve us, so we are proud to
support local dining!
