Craving a culinary adventure nestled in the picturesque Upper Delaware River Valley? Look no further than The Heron, a modern American restaurant serving up delightful dishes with a unique twist. Owners Paul Nanni and Marla Puccetti have curated a menu inspired by the region’s bountiful agricultural and artisan resources, transforming classic comfort foods and creating inventive new ones, according to the Narrowsburg Chamber of Commerce. Think crispy buttermilk fried chicken so juicy it’ll make you swoon, or a mac and cheese that’s so legendary it’s practically a local landmark. You can also find delicious options like crispy eggs, steak frites, and even a standout blacked catfish dish.
But The Heron offers more than just delectable food. Diners can enjoy the restaurant’s charming and rustic ambiance, complete with a cozy interior and a beautiful back deck offering stunning views of the Delaware River. Picture yourself enjoying a thoughtfully crafted cocktail and watching the sun set over the water, perhaps even catching a glimpse of the majestic eagles soaring overhead. It’s the perfect spot for a special occasion or simply a relaxing meal with loved ones.
The Heron isn’t just about good food and a pretty view; it’s about a commitment to community and local sourcing. Paul and Marla envisioned a restaurant that embraced the region’s resources, and they are dedicated to creating a welcoming and comfortable atmosphere for everyone who walks through their doors. Whether you’re celebrating a special event or simply seeking a delicious and comforting meal, The Heron aims to provide a memorable experience that feels like “your place to land,”
What is there to tell? A small-town girl with roots in restaurants moves to the big city to fulfill her fantasy of working in television. A city boy, born and raised in Detroit, goes to the Culinary Institute of America and moves to NYC, with hopes of running a restaurant of his own someday.
While they don’t know it yet, the roots of The Heron start years ago when Marla and Paul meet on the set of “Inner Chef with Marcus Samuelson”, Paul working behind the scenes as a food stylist & Sous chef & Marla working as the series producer. After years in the city talking about opening a restaurant, their dream becomes a reality, in a very unexpected place, Narrowsburg, New York. Inspired by the vast resources of the region, Marla and Paul relocate to Sullivan County with the hopes of creating a restaurant that is community driven and locally sustainable. Their goal: to provide the region with great food and a comfortable atmosphere where everyone is welcome.
