The announcement comes in direct response to community feedback calling for an innovative and elevated dining experience at the casino.

With a focus on quality, speed, and creativity, The Kitchen is poised to become a go-to for both locals and visitors seeking satisfying, chef-driven meals in a relaxed setting.

Conant’s reputation for bold flavors, refined techniques, and approachable cuisine makes The Kitchen one of the most anticipated restaurant openings in the area.

  • Slow-Smoked Beef Brisket & Pulled Pork

  • Chicken Parmesan

A New Era for Dining in Orange County

Located inside the Newburgh Mall on Route 300, Resorts World Hudson Valley opened its doors on December 28, 2022, and has since become a hub for entertainment and tourism in the region.

The addition of The Kitchen not only enhances the visitor experience but also brings a new level of culinary prestige to the Hudson Valley.

As summer approaches, food lovers and casino guests alike are counting down the days until The Kitchen officially opens its doors.
