Nyack Restaurants Offer Dine-in, Take-out Thanksgiving

NYACK, NY — The night comes early, the temperatures are dropping, Thanksgiving 2021 is coming and Nyack restaurants have you covered.

"For many families, Thanksgiving 2021 will have special meaning," said Hudson Market on Main Manager Mark Davidoff. "Many will be together again after more than a year of isolation. Many have experienced illness and, in some cases, loss. Coming together around the Thanksgiving table to enjoy a special meal will be welcome comfort and relief."

For those who would prefer not to cook, several Nyack restaurants are offering special menus for dining in, and some are also offering the holiday meals to go.

"We're pleased to offer our patrons the option of dining with us or ordering pick-up," said Constantine Kalandranis, owner of The Greekish.

The Greekish this year is brining its turkeys in lemon and oregano, and serving the bird with potatoes whipped with Greek yogurt and dill, as well as other treats with a Mediterranean flair. SEE: The Greekish, 8 North Broadway, Nyack | Reservations | MENU

Then there's the Hudson House of Nyack, also offering both options. Its 2021 Thanksgiving menu choices also include roasted salmon, braised short ribs and a vegan quinoa-stuffed squash, and the butternut squash bisque has a dollop of pumpkin-seed pesto.

Hudson Market on Main has a take-out feast for four for $75, with roast turkey breast, stuffing, gravy, cranberry sauce, three side dishes, bread, butter and cookies, said Davidoff. SEE: Hudson Market on Main, 5 North Broadway, Nyack | MENU Dinner for 4 or Sides for Take-out

If you're cooking some of the festive feast yourself, do drop by the Nyack Farmers Market. Run by the Nyack Chamber of Commerce, it's a valuable resource for fresh local produce and specialty goods. While it's usually a Thursday affair, this year the market will have a special session the day before Thanksgiving on Nov. 24.
