Cool, it might be helpful if you shared what restaurants your search turned up. What type of cuisine are you looking for?

There are several very good choices in this area. Also depends on what time you mean by "after theater". 9:30PM or later would severely limit your choices. Also the Iron Horse Grill, the top restaurant in town, is closed on Sundays.

Are you looking for a top-notch, high end meal, or a casual, bistro, nice experience?

Are you going to the Jacob Burns? (What a fabulous venue!!)

My wife and I dine frequently in Pleasantville (it is on the way from NYC to our country home).

FYI--most restaurants in the area close on Sundays around 9-10 pm.

IMOP one of the best (mentioned here by another poster) anywhere is Iron Horse grill which is unfortunately closed Sundays.

However you have a lot of pretty good options right in Pleasantville. All open for dinner Sunday.

Strega is New American cooking and very good (second to Iron Horse).

Mediterraneo is a solid italian--we have had some good meals here.

Hanada Sushi--is ok as well. I would say middle of the pack sushi joint.

Jackson and Wheeler is a possibility though they have a new chef--very inconsistent though you could eat well here if careful.

We are going to Jacob Burns and will be out by 7:30 on a Fri. Iron horse and Strega both looked good on the web but a bistro would also be good. Since we plan future visits to JB, we'll get a chance to try several of the restaurants.

Thanks to all for the input.

Both Iron Horse and Strega are what I would call American Bistro's.

Iron Horse IMOP is a special place--great very accommodating staff and the owner chef Phil McGrath is there 99% of the time--his wife fills in on the few times he is not.

Food is very very good--solid with enough inventiveness to add some real interest--very fresh top quality ingredients.

also-the wine list is on of the more interesting and easily navigable lists around and well priced.

another suggestion--Blue Hill at Stone barns is about fifteen or twenty minutes away--we often have dinner at the bar or in the warmer weather --on the patio!

Crabtree Kittle House is also close by--off the saw Mill Pkway.

enjoy!

We also go often to the Burns. 2 exits north on the Saw Mill is Mt Kisco, and a terrific restaurant there is Lexington Square. The food is excellent, and if the weather is warm, the patio is delightful;

Temptation Tea House also in Mt Kisco is a great change of pace, an excellent Pan-Asian (Not Chinese) with some fusion food served beautifully in a nice space with an open kitchen. Great teas as well.

Luna in Mount Kisco is also terrific.

For a more casual bite, Jackson & Wheeler in Pleasantville is very good.

Down the Saw Mill about 12 miles is Haiku, another sensational Asian in Bronxville.

On your way home, in Tarrytown, is a VERY casual Greek resto with great salads and gyros, Lefteris.

Dragonfly Cafe around the corner from the Burns, is good for a quick snack and terrific coffee before the show, as is Jean-Jacques on the other side of the RR station.

Wish we had a Jacob Burns here in New Jersey, it is a fantastic arts center!!
