Located in the really cute town of Katonah, our dining experience was superb from start to finish.  Real nice menu with several interesting choices.  We kicked it off with the seared scallops which were fresh and tasty.  My wife had the classic burger, which she claimed was right up there with the best burgers in town.  I had the steak frites which was tender and delicious.  The fries were smothered in garlic, enhancing the experience.  For dessert, we shared the bread pudding which was moist and sweet.  Service was friendly.  Atmosphere was alive and energetic.  Real fun place to enjoy a delicious meal.

Ristorante The Whitlock a Katonah: Esperienza Gastronomica Unica

The Whitlock, located at 17 Katonah Ave, Katonah, NY 10536, was established in 2017 by owners Christina and Matt Safarowic. The restaurant pays homage to the village's history, named after the first businesses in old Katonah, Wood & Whitlock.

The Whitlock: A Historical Overview of Katonah's Legacy and Modern Charm 

Nestled in the heart of Katonah, New York, The Whitlock stands as a vibrant tribute to the rich heritage and resilient spirit of this quaint village. Named after the original Wood & Whitlock mill and tavern established in the early 19th century, this modern bistro not only offers farm-to-table comforts and craft cocktails but also encapsulates a fascinating historical narrative dating back over two centuries.

The story of Katonah begins around the year 1800 when merchants John Burr Whitlock and Squire Wood laid the foundation of the community by establishing essential businesses—a general store, a tavern, and a mill. These enterprises collectively known as Wood & Whitlock were pivotal in shaping local commerce and daily life, giving rise to a bustling settlement named Whitlockville. This early entrepreneurial spirit set the stage for Katonah's enduring identity as a close-knit village with a strong sense of place.

Transformation and Resettlement in the 20th Century

A century later, the village faced a dramatic transformation. Around 1900, the original Whitlockville land was condemned to make way for the construction of reservoirs along the Croton and Cross Rivers, a vital development for the region's water supply. This forced a relocation of many residents, who carefully moved their homes and businesses to what is now the modern-day Katonah. This remarkable act of community preservation highlights the villagers' commitment to maintaining their heritage despite significant upheaval.

The Whitlock Today: Honoring the Past with a Modern Touch

In 2017, The Whitlock restaurant opened its doors at 17 Katonah Avenue as a homage to the village's origins and the enduring legacy of Whitlock and Wood. This contemporary bistro artfully blends the charm of Katonah's history with a fresh, farm-to-table culinary approach. Featuring a menu that delights both locals and visitors, The Whitlock offers a warm, inviting atmosphere filled with local art, making it a cultural hub that continues the tradition of community gathering.

 - John Burr Whitlock and Squire Wood establish key businesses including a general store, tavern, and mill, founding Whitlockville.

 - Land condemnation for reservoir construction leads to relocation and rebirth of Katonah.

 - The Whitlock restaurant opens, celebrating Katonah’s rich history with contemporary dining and a community-focused vibe.
