Blue Ribbon Tavern - Spring Valley

Located on the border of Rockland and New Jersey, this restaurant is nestled in a charming strip mall resembling a barn, with the left end featuring what looks like a farm silo that houses the bar. The bar itself is quite long, and there are table seats on the right side of the room. The kitchen is lively, with the cook often darting around throughout the evening, and there are drink specials on certain nights that turn into fun competitions. Additionally, the restaurant hosts karaoke nights and occasionally features live bands in the back on weekends. It draws in some regulars, but given that it’s nearly the only bar in the area, that's understandable. The bartender, Stathi, is truly exceptional at his craft. I’m not sure if he works there regularly, but during my visit, he was impressively efficient and on top of his game.
