Dakota's On The Cove

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Dakota on the Cove in the Bronx with my brother, and it was an absolutely unforgettable experience from start to finish! This hidden gem on the water offers a perfect blend of cozy ambiance, stunning views, and top-notch Italian-inspired cuisine that left us raving for days. We kicked things off with drinks at the bar, and they did not disappoint. I opted for the local Bronx Brewery Pilsner, which was crisp, refreshing, and perfectly balanced— a true nod to the neighborhood’s brewing scene. My brother went for the White Mistletoe specialty cocktail, a festive, smooth concoction that had just the right hint of holiday cheer without being overpowering. It set the tone for a relaxed and enjoyable evening. For appetizers, we shared the mozzarella en car

My new favorite dinner date spot. Iris and her team of professionals made our #1stDate experience wonderfully perfect. On a chilly autumn 🍂 evening the temperature, lighting, mood, and ambiance of this casual dining room offered us the right amount of music volume to allow us to speak and really get to know each other and the staff made us feel at home and delivered timely service, accurately executed, hot & delicious offerings.

We stopped in to Dakota's on the Cove tonight on a whim. Driving home from P.A., stuck in massive traffic on the C.B.E. ( shocker) and starving, I checked my GPS to see what restaurants were nearby. Lucky enough we were a quarter mile from the last exit before the Throgsneck bridge because as soon as you got off, the restaurant was within View. Talk about timing....We were able to get a seat in a booth by the bar. The view of the sunset on the bridge was spectacular. They also have an outdoor deck with seating and a HUGE beautiful Biergarten with a bar, picnic tables, Adirondack chairs , fire pits and a big screen TV.! Our drink order was taken and a basket of bread placed on the table. Our drinks came immediately and we placed our dinner order. We ordered the Fried Shrimp basket which cam
