Probably our favorite place to hear music in Westchester, we catch Leslie Pintchik and Scott Hardy here once or twice a month. The Watercolor has a nice atmosphere and attracts a crowd of respectful regulars who chat quietly while enjoying the music.
The food is uneven. A surprising number of menu items include gorgonzola. My fave entree is a grilled veggie plate--an abundant and interesting mix of eggplant, squash, peppers, asparagus and more--with fruited basmati rice (hold the gorgonzola). The seared scallop appetizer makes a good light meal--three plump sea scallops on a bed of mashed cauliflower. The pulled-duck quesadilla sounds more interesting than it tastes--it's pretty bland in spite of the mushrooms, gruyere and mango chutney.
The Watercolor has recently started pouring Old Overholt, a long-time sentimental favorite. I also enjoy the blood-orange margaritas; the wines by the glass are ok, nothing especially interesting.
Desserts are a mixed bag. Apparently the key lime pie and apple strudel are good but unrecognizable as key lime pie and apple strudel. The toll-house pie rates an eh.
