CLASSIC FRENCH CUISINE WITH A CONTEMPORARY TOUCH
French recipes prepared true to the principles of legendary chef Auguste Escoffier, but with a lighter, contemporary touch. Delicate sauces are combined with fresh, seasonal ingredients to produce a subtle harmony of flavors. Located in Roth Hall, the Ivy Award-winning, student-staffed Escoffier was inducted into the Nation's Restaurant News Hall of Fame in 2000. The restaurant's á la carte menu represents the culinary traditions of the regions of France—from rustic Provençal to sophisticated Parisian— all served with a beautiful and authentic presentation.
Escoffier Restaurant was awarded "Best Dutchess County Restaurant" in Hudson Valley Magazine's annual "Best Of The Hudson Valley" awards.
