Profile

The room is big, dark, incredibly handsome, cavernous, more humming than boisterous, unfocused but friendly. Think of Hudson Cafeteria as a community center for the privileged. The stuff that makes the surprisingly diverse customers happiest is macaroni and cheese (without the foie gras). It's become very canny to claim discomfort with comfort food, but those eating it here want more and couldn't care less. — Rob Patronite and Robin Raisfeld

Brunch

Great if you have 6-10 people...horrible when there are 2 of you and the group next to you has little brats that decided to make a magical potion mixed with all of the food and drinks on the table while the parents just sat with a blind eye. The food is really lackluster. I've been 2x. The first was when staying at the Hudson and the second was when I knew someone would pick up the tab. I also live a few minutes away and even for a free meal I wouldn't travel further than that for it.

This dark and sexy spot is surprisingly good for groups. The long tables accomodate small parties, and the portions are large enough for sharing. The mood is more remarkable than the food, as nothing on the menu really stands out. After dinner, you have plenty of options, as there are several bars all under one roof, including one without one! With all of the bar options at Hudson, you can extend your dinner party to the topiary filled garden for cocktails, or escape the pack, hide away and shoot pool in the cool library.
