Escoffier Restaurant

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.

"Lovely high French cuisine served with style the classic way in the most elegant room makes this CIA standout the star of the Hyde Park school's marvelous restaurants... desserts prepared tableside are a great show too."
