 2 Reviews  Liz and I come here primarily on weekends for brunch or to grab a bite to eat after work during the week. I am surprised at how good the food is here since it is a "chain".

City Limits Diner

City Limits Diner, White Plains

 2 Reviews  Liz and I have been to the two locations of City Limits (White Plains & Stamford). The diner looks like a retro 1950's place with chrome like accents and and green booths. They have some typical diner favorites and well as more ecclectic and upscale versions. City Limits is definitely pricey but we...

 2 Reviews  I've been to the Legal Sea Foods in Washington and Boston and decided to try this location out recently while spending a fun filled day shopping with my daughter.

Westchester Burger Co.

Westchester Burger Co., White Plains

 1 Review  This is a fairly new burger joint that is located in close proximity to the Westchester. Ferni and I had heard some mixed reviews about the place and decided to check it out.

The Melting Pot

The Melting Pot, White Plains

 1 Review  I've been here now on several occassions and have had the same experience on both visits. First, let me say that the restaurant itself is quite nice, with wonderful dark wood accents and a nice bar, booths and a enclosed "party" area. I really liked the atmosphere and the food, but the service was... 

Planet Pizza

Iron Tomato

Iron Tomato, White Plains

 2 Reviews  Although not quite a restaurant I decided to include The Iron Tomato under this category because you can sit and enjoy a pizza, prepared foods, pastries, coffee/espresso or some yummy gelato. It’s a really nice looking shop with mostly Italian specialty ingredients (although you will also find... 

Silver Lake Cafe Grill

Silver Lake Cafe Grill, White Plains

 1 Review  The Silver Lake Cafe Grill is very small (5 tables), but they serve really good breakfast and lunch items.

Nightlife  

Elements

Elements, White Plains

 1 Review  One of Liz's co-workers entered them in a Radio contest for a free Happy Hour and won. So off we headed to Elements for our Holiday Happy Hour. Parking was a bit of a nightmare due to it being Christmas time and the shoppers all head to White Plains. After twenty five minutes of searching for... 

Transportation  

Metro North Harlem Line

Metro North Harlem Line, White Plains

 2 Reviews  There is plenty to do in White Plains, so if you are coming from NYC and don't have a car, Metro North is the best and easiest way to get here. There are trains leaving Grand Central every 10-15 minutes (even on weekends) and if you time it just right you just may get on an express train that...
