Il Figlio Enoteca
At Il Figlio Enoteca, refined Italian cooking meets the warmth of a neighborhood favorite. Opened by restaurateur Scott Rosenberg as the next chapter following the beloved Il Barilotto, the restaurant offers a more spacious, polished setting while staying rooted in the flavors that built its loyal following. The menu leans into what Rosenberg calls “Hudson Valley Italian,” pairing classic Mediterranean technique with high-quality proteins and seasonal ingredients, all served in a dining room that feels elevated yet inviting.
The breadth of the menu reflects that balance. Antipasti range from grilled Spanish octopus with almond romesco to beef carpaccio finished with truffle aioli, while fresh pastas anchor the experience—think pappardelle with short-rib ragù, gnocchi in a four-hour duck bolognese, or agnolotti filled with maple-roasted squash and sage brown butter. Secondi dishes, including a marinated veal chop, red-wine-braised lamb shank, and pan-seared branzino, are the kind of indulgent, expertly executed plates best enjoyed out rather than attempted at home. A thoughtful wine list and Italian-leaning cocktail program round out the experience.
Il Figlio also marks the beginning of a small family of restaurants in Fishkill. Just next door, Rosenberg expanded the vision with La Sorella, a more casual daytime counterpart focused on breakfast and lunch. Together, the two concepts offer different expressions of the same philosophy—one polished and evening-driven, the other relaxed and daytime-friendly—creating a complementary pair that gives locals and visitors alike more reasons to return again and again.

La Sorella
La Sorella Mercato in Fishkill, NY is an Italian-inspired café-market offering a relaxed setting for coffee and casual meals, alongside a curated selection of provisions. Located on Main Street, this eatery introduces a casual yet elegant approach to dining by combining the roles of a café, lunch spot, and retail store.

Founded by restaurateur Scott Rosenberg, who also owns the neighboring Il Figlio Enoteca, La Sorella blends approachable cuisine with expertly sourced items, bridging the gap between quality offerings and everyday practicality.
What sets La Sorella apart in Fishkill's dining scene is its dual concept as both a dining venue and a market. Its commitment to quality manifests not only in its delightful daily menu but also in its range of take-home goods such as imported pasta, private label olive oils, and floral arrangements sourced from nearby Cold Spring. While mornings start with freshly made pastries, quiches, and egg sandwiches, the afternoon menu highlights include focaccia sandwiches filled with ingredients like burrata and pistachio pesto. These thoughtful touches resonate with guests who appreciate a balance of simplicity and sophistication in their food and shopping choices.
The aesthetic of La Sorella contributes significantly to the experience, characterized by a light-filled interior designed by Ford Skoglund. The design fosters a tranquil environment with soft lighting, comfortable banquette seating, and strategically placed greenery, offering an ideal backdrop for remote work or unhurried social gatherings. Visitors are encouraged to make the most of their time here, whether enjoying a quiet lunch or networking over drinks.
