It’s not like we thought Woodstock was still all tie-dye and Birkenstocks, but we were nonetheless still pretty surprised to find Cucina. It’s a big, beautiful Italian restaurant inside a converted farmhouse - and if the idea of the L’Artusi of upstate New York is at all exciting to you, then you should make it a priority to get here. From the seasonal, modern Italian food, to the upscale but comfortable interior, to the wraparound porch, this place is easily one of the best dinners we’ve had upstate.
