Hudson Grille

My visit to the bar presented an opportunity to indulge in their culinary offerings, and I must say, it was an experience worth recounting.
One standout dish that captivated my palate was the 'Braised Short Rib.' A harmonious blend of flavors unfolded with each bite - velvety mashed potatoes adorned with a creamy-buttery texture, accompanied by the delightful sweetness of carrot slices, a hint of bitterness from mushrooms, a touch of spicy onion, and a satisfying dash of ripened salt, among other intricate ingredients.
This dish undoubtedly earns its place as a must-try at this establishment.
Allow me to share the journey of my dining experience from start to finish.

I wanted to like this place because honestly the food was great.
Overall though it was a frustrating bad experience.
The short version is the service was terrible, no one was attentive, and it took an hour to get a to-go order that still had mistakes.
The long version is below. I placed an order at 10:21PM on a Sunday using UberEats.
I am staying across the street so I placed the order and walked across at 10:40.
Expected pickup was 10:48. When I walked in no one was at the host station, all the service staff were sitting at a table further in the restaurant.
Someone eventually came after a few minutes and I told him I was picking up.
He said okay and went away to check I guess.
Not sure before he never came back to me with an update.
I sat at the bar and waited. The restaurant wasn’t packed.
But my food never came.
Two bartenders came to ask me was I okay and I told both I was waiting for food and they just said okay.
No one went to check.
But in the time I waited the whole staff stood by the bar eating.
That was a turn off.
And I saw the original guy who came and spoke to me, picking his teeth with his hands and then carried shots outside to guest.
That’s nasty. A girl came to the front to take another group of guests order who wanted it to-go.
I stopped her snd said I’m waiting for food.
She went to the back and checked.
She finally came out after another 15 minutes with the food.
It was FRESH and hot.
That tells me someone either forgot about me order, neglected my order, or never started it when I ordered it.
It was 11:17…almost an hour later so there is no way that was made at 10:21.
I am sure she went back and it wasn’t made and had it made on the spot. But she forgot about my drinks.
Asked me what they were (she handed me the receipt so she should have checked prior).
I had flavored lemonades and when she came back she gave me the wrong flavors but at that point I was not going to further wait, I took it and left.
It was 11:21 - 59 minutes since I placed my order for two burgers and two lemonades. I didn’t want to give it one star because the food was actually really good! Sweet potato fries are a must and they give this cinnamon sauce situation.
Absolutely good.
And again I got hot food so I was at least happy that it was fresh (if it were not I would have sent it back after waiting an hour).
But everything else about the experience was 1 star.
The service was bad and I hate to say because everyone was young but the just lacked professionalism and attentiveness.
If the order were correct I’d probably given it 2 stars.
I shouldn’t have had to talk to 4 different people to get my food.
Even if I had to speak to more than one, the next person up should have took ownership because it was clear as day I am sitting waiting.
I watched the bartenders doing their own thing, making mistakes, not paying attention to people.
It was really just bad. Would I recommend the food, sure.
I myself would never go back though.

Was pretty good just wish the wings and fries weren't so crisp.
Gin did a great job though.
Stop and try them lemonyaki.
