Peekamoose Restaurant - American restaurant in Big Indian - 8373 NY-28, USA

Went to this place for dinner and there was a long wait for about 45 mins. We were the last people they seated. The bread at their restaurant was absolutely delicious, we really enjoyed it. The ambiance is nice, they have a lot of animals in there.

Came here to celebrate my bday with my bf from our weekend escape from the city. This restaurant stood out to me because of the moose heads around the restaurant. It was interesting to see a real moose on the wall at their bar. The service was fantastic and our waiter was very polite and friendly. The atmosphere was very relaxing and more like a trendy edm lounge type vibe. They gave us bread to start off, which was warm and very good. Then, we ordered the grilled octopus appetizer to start, I thought that the octopus was good, but my bf said it was a bit salty. Then, as main, we got the burger and salmon. Highly recommend the burger that came with apple sauce that was good and salmon that came on a bed of lentils that was interesting. Then, at the end, we ordered the gelato, and they added the 1 bday baby candle! So I did add on my reservation that it was for my bday celebration, but they wanted us to order a dessert first to add the candle. That was a bit disappointing, lol. I thought they would provide a cake for bday reservations as other "high-end" restaurants in the city do for their customers. Nonetheless, I loved the new experience at peekamoose and would recommend coming here if you're a huge fan of hunting or like us curious urbanites. If not, it might be a bit scary seeing all the stuffed moose and deer heads around. Lol. The location was a bit out of the way for us. I would only stop by if you're in a neighborhood or live nearby. We reserved, but it looked like there were plenty of open tables around.

A stop at Peekamoose is always part of the itinerary whenever I make a trip to the Catskills. It's reputation stands for itself and never fails to disappoint. On this trip, my wife and I started with the beets and homemade gnudi. The gnudi was like a oversized gnocchi with a lightly crisped shell served over a great tomato sauce. The beets were some of the sweetest I've had (probably due to the honey based sauce that accompanied it). For the entrée, I had the roast duck and my wife has the filet mignon, both cooked perfectly to our desired doneness. To top it all off, we ended our meal with the pannacotta which was excellent. Aside from the food, the cocktails and wine selection are sure to please any discerning drinker. My stomach is growling as I write this and I'm already looking forward to my next trip.

I recently celebrated my birthday at Peekamoose and I couldn't have asked for a more delightful experience.The standout feature of our evening was undoubtedly the impeccable service provided by our waiter. He was attentive, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable about the menu. His suggestions were spot-on and enhanced our dining experience. Now, let's talk about the food. Oh my goodness, the food! Every dish that graced our table was a testament to the chef's expertise. Each bite was a harmonious blend of flavors that danced on our taste buds. The attention to detail and the quality of ingredients were apparent in every dish. The generous portion sizes were a pleasant surprise!

My husband, and 2 kids sat in the dining room section of this restaurant. Amazing service, food came out quickly, and everything was so delicious! I loved how the kids menu actually had real healthy options for the little ones. And the zucchini fazzoletti vegan entree was insanely good!! Can’t wait to come back again when we are in the area!

Incredible dinner experience I was not expecting. Food was ridiculously good, service was impeccable and to top it off they have movie nights! Can't wait to dine here again!

Our family had a SPECTACULAR dining experience at Peekamoose during Memorial Day Weekend. The service was among the best we've encountered. The food was EXCELLENT and prepared perfectly. We enjoyed the atmosphere in the dining room, while outside was the beautiful Catskill Mountains. This was by far our favorite dining experience visiting this area. Highly recommended.

Very good food and ambience. Even with nearly full tables in the restaurant, the service was fast and correctly fulfilled, as well as the noise level was low enough that we could carry on conversations within our group. Although the name is counter-intuitive, the "steamed parsnip cake" dessert is decadent and worth visiting just for that.
