Great food as always

Just had my son's baptism party here earlier today. Couldn't be happier with the service, food and staff! Carl the manager was there the whole time making sure everything was running smoothly. Kristine the catering coordinator was on top of everything leading up to the party. The staff was very professional and on their A game! We received everything we were promised and more. The food was great! And they made the experience one that we could enjoy without any distractions. I would absolutely recommend this place to anyone and would also use them again in the future.

It seems very casual when you come in, but the food is delicious!! They have great drinks too for all different people - cocktails, beers, you name it. Definitely recommend with friends for a casual dinner out. The pan-seared salmon is incredible!!! The sauce is a pesto lemon aioli and it's absolutely delicious. Definitely try the entrees. More...

This is a popular place.  There is a lot of activity at the bar but we sat at one of the booths.  The tuna was really good and would have it again.  The wait staff is really courteous.  Would like to go back and try additional dishes. More...

The food was outstanding and so was the value. i had the salmon and my husband had the meatloaf, both favorites of ours. The service left a lot to be desired. We had to keep asking for water and when we ordered drinks we waited quite a while. The restaurant was not crowded so I could not figure why we did not have good service. More...

We met friends for lunch. There was plenty of parking behind the restaurant with easy access. The front bar had some high top tables and a nice bar. We were taken to the back room where there were some booths and tables. There were white tablecloths on all the tables which gave it an upscale feel. The menu had something for everyone. Two of us had the lobster roll which had large pieces of lobster ( not much mayonnaise like some other places). Two of us had the crab cake sandwich which was served on a brioche bun. It was one of the best I have ever had, looked like a burger, seasoned great and not a lot of breading. The Reuben was also served on a brioche bun, was delicious, and the only comment was that the meat could have been cut up a little more to make it easier to bite into. All were served with fries, though some of us exchanged them for a small side salad. The Capn’ Cruch Chicken appetizer was tasty, though I didn’t really taste the cereal in the breading. We tried a few deserts, the salted caramel cheesecake, creme brûlée, and the raspberry sorbet were all a great ending to our meal. The prices were all pretty standard for lunch. Kudos to Sarah our server, she was fantastic. We will definitely be going back! More...

Every town should have a watering hole with as comfy a surrounding, good food, fantastic beer list, non pretentious clientele and fabulous management and staff. Never a bad time or meal there. Highly recommended! More...

Had a nice selection of beers and the food was pretty good. Affordable. I got a Ribeye steak with jumbo shrimp for 26 bucks. That's pretty good. My date and I were at Barrique's across the street and paid 20 bucks for a tiny plate, we left there and came here. At Horace & Sylvia's the decor felt a little dated. We stopped in on a Saturday night and the place was very quiet. A few people at the bar enjoying what's on tap and not much else going on. Overall, it was pretty good and I'll be back when I'm in the village. More...

There were 10 people so drinks were forgotten but the service got better and better. Everyone raved about the food: marinated skirt steak, paella , salmon, lobster and shrimp over zucchini. My husband and I come here often so er talked the other eight into joining us before an Argyle Theater show. Great night! More...

We enjoyed our meal at Horace & Sylvia's. The food was excellent. Have cedar plank salmon and my husband had paella. Both dishes were prepared well. The restaurant is very convenient to the Argyle Theater where we for a production. The sound level was very high and that made conversation a little challenging. More...

I always hear good things about the food here but the few times I've been haven't been anything to run back for. I come for the drinks and bands usually. Nice bartenders who rarely make you wait. Bands are typically always good. We have even celebrated NYE here and we had a good time. More...

After having a horrible experience at the Brixton, I found a much nicer experience across the street. It was around 3 PM on a Friday. I found a wide selection of craft beers, delectable appetizers, and great conversation with one of the bartenders. More...

Horace and Sylvia's is Babylon's best kept "foodie" secret IMHO! Husband and I there on a Friday recently during Happy Hour and were seated in the back where it was a little bit quieter than the well-attended bar area in front. We were served by Sarah, who was informative, attentive, personable and witty as all get-out! Although there were a wide variety of options on the menu (the Ahi Tuna with Zoodles, Marinated Skirt Steak and Braised Short Rib looked tempting), we were in the mood for something more simple. We ordered one of the local beers on tap, as well as two appetizers: the Waldorf Salad and zucchini chips. The apples in the salad were fresh and the chips were accompanied by a delicious horseradish dip. We each had the Angus Smokehouse burger which was cooked perfectly and highlighted by the smoked paprika aioli and hand-cut fries. We were too full for dessert, but plan on adjusting accordingly next time we dine there. So glad we found H&S! We can't wait to return! More...

I recently had my second celebration at Horace and Sylvia's. It was wonderful from the planning with Kristine to the set up with the staff.  Carl the owner was available to answer all my questions and was so helpful the day of the party and the staff was helpful and pleasant as well. My guests all loved the food as it was fresh and delicious. We all had a great time.  I would highly recommend having a party or just stopping in for a beer and some good food. I'm a BABYLON girl and this is one of my favorite places to visit. More...
