NEWBURGH, NY – The city of Newburgh is welcoming a fresh burst of flavor to its vibrant food scene as An Artistic Taste, a well-loved Jamaican fusion restaurant, officially opens its second location at 96 Broadway.
While the address has seen two businesses come and go over the past two years, the arrival of An Artistic Taste brings new hope—and plenty of experience—to the table.
A Proven Concept Expands
An Artistic Taste is far from a newcomer to the Hudson Valley food scene. Founded in 2012 in Harriman, NY, the original location quickly built a loyal following with its unique fusion of traditional Jamaican flavors and innovative culinary twists. Now, with over a decade of experience and a reputation for delivering delicious, creative dishes, the owners are bringing their passion to Newburgh.
Their choice to open a second restaurant in Newburgh marks a confident step forward, especially given the high turnover in that location in recent years. But An Artistic Taste isn’t just another hopeful venture—it’s a seasoned restaurant with a dedicated fanbase and a distinctive approach to Caribbean cuisine.
Jamaican Fusion: Familiar Roots with a Creative Twist
What sets An Artistic Taste apart is its Jamaican fusion menu, which combines traditional staples with inventive creations. Diners can expect beloved classics like oxtail, jerk chicken, and rice and peas, as well as modern takes like surf and turf dumplings and oyster mushroom wagyu—a dish that’s already catching attention for its bold flavors and presentation.
This modern-meets-traditional philosophy has become a hallmark of their brand, appealing to both longtime lovers of Jamaican cuisine and adventurous eaters looking to try something new.
Hudson Valley’s Growing Love for Jamaican Cuisine
The opening of An Artistic Taste in Newburgh is part of a wider trend in the Hudson Valley: the rising popularity of Jamaican food. In recent years, restaurants like Montego Bay have moved and expanded to great success, and other Jamaican eateries have quickly taken over spaces left behind by previous tenants.
It’s clear that local diners are embracing the bold, spicy, and soulful flavors that Caribbean cooking brings to the region. With its unique blend of traditional recipes and elevated, chef-inspired dishes, An Artistic Taste fits right into this growing culinary movement.
Positive Reception from the Community
Although its soft opening on July 16th was recent, the feedback from Newburgh locals has been overwhelmingly positive. One customer wrote on social media,
“We were there tonight and everything was delicious!! We loved it when we lived in Harriman and we’re thrilled you’re in Newburgh, our new home!”
Another added,
“Your food is amazing.”
Comments like these are strong indicators that the restaurant’s expansion is off to a promising start, and that Newburgh residents are embracing their new neighborhood favorite.
A New Chapter for 96 Broadway
With its high-traffic location, flavorful menu, and proven business model, An Artistic Taste is poised to succeed where others have struggled. Their experience and innovation may be just what’s needed to revitalize the space and solidify it as a dining destination in Newburgh.
To support the restaurant and experience its unique take on Jamaican fusion, residents can visit the new location and follow An Artistic Taste on social media for updates, specials, and upcoming events.
Whether you’re a longtime fan from Harriman or a first-time visitor, An Artistic Taste promises an unforgettable culinary experience in the heart of Newburgh.
