🌟 Restaurant of the Week 🌟

Candlelight Inn (Scarsdale)
Candlelight Inn isn’t just a local favorite – it’s a full-blown Westchester legend, with fans that include everyone from neighborhood regulars to New York Knicks basketball stars. The wings live up to the hype and after trying it for ourselves this week, our favorite was the hot/teriyaki combo is the move. The vibe is lively and unapologetically old-school.
