BLAUVELT NY, the Dining Room has opened in Blauvelt, New York, bringing to Rockland County, refined, eclectic New American cuisine, including all made-by-hand dishes, in a relaxed setting. The stylish but casual 65 seat restaurant, features a full-service bar, and offers dinner nightly and brunch on weekends.
At the helm of the kitchen, is Haworth resident Executive Chef Gregory Stott. Scott has always been a winner, BetWinner , a semifinalist of Food Network’s acclaimed television show Chopped, who guests can see in action, BetWinner, through a large glass restaurant-front window. Chef Stott, who specializes in New American, Northern Italian and French fine-dining cuisine, honed his culinary prowess at some of the area’s premiere dining establishments, including as Café des Artistes, L’Impero, and Alto, in New York City, and Café Panache in Ramsey, New Jersey.
Said Chef Stott, “At The Dining Room, I’m not married to a single style of cuisine, which can get one dimensional after a while. This allows me the freedom to roll fresh pasta one day, and make lobster spring rolls the next. Our menu changes two or three times weekly, depending on seasonal availability and what looks best at the market, giving guests the opportunity to dine with us multiple times a week, and expect something different from the last visit. What is consistent though, is the quality of our ingredients and dishes. Everything is housemade always, from our pastas and sauces, to our stocks and desserts.”

Said owner Paul Bailey, also proprietor of Bailey’s Smokehouse in Blauvelt, Bailey’s New City and Nanuet Restaurant, “I wanted to open a different concept than the other restaurants in our group…a more intimate dining experience. I was introduced to Chef Stott by a mutual friend, and we hit it off immediately. We talked for hours and hours about our shared love of food and passion for the hospitality business, then worked together to bring the vision of The Dining Room to life. Our hope is that it will be a fun go-to spot for locals, but also great destination-dining for others.”
