Looking for something special to treat dear old dad? These over-the-top macho meals are a perfect way to say “thanks, dad” on Father’s Day or any other day of the year in Westchester County.
Amore
1 Kent Pl, Armonk; 914.273.3535
Every fast-food pizza joint makes a meat lover’s pie, but for Father’s Day, you need something better than a delivery chain. At Amore, the carnivorous pie gets a quality upgrade with five meats — sausage, meatballs, ham, pepperoni, and bacon — all from an authentic Italian butcher on Arthur Avenue.

Little B’s
49 Main St, Tarrytown; 914.631.2228
What’s more macho than burgers, bacon, and beer? At Little B’s, they’re raising the stakes on the bacon cheeseburger by grinding bacon right into the patty, then topping the burger with cheddar cheese and (what else?) more bacon. Of course, the Baconator is sliders, so you can feel good about the small portions, right?

Best of all, if an important father in your life lives a little too far from this adorable bake shop, Sugar Hi can ship its scrumptious and creative delicacies nationwide.

X2O Xaviars on the Hudson
71 Water Grant St, Yonkers; 914.965.1111
Make no mis-steak, sometimes all you need is a sprinkle of salt and pepper. But this Father’s Day, you need macho. At X2O on the Hudson, the 2.5-inch ribeye on the bone (40 ounces) marinates in dark brown sugar and cayenne pepper longer than dad can stay awake watching the news (three hours minimum). The exterior is grilled to charred perfection and served with caramelized shallots.
