    Greetings
    Mercedes C.

    I knew we weren't getting local joint NYC pizza at this Hudson, NY restaurant. It was doable for the moment. I mean...it's good and the flavors are there- but is it a pizza? The way New Yorkers truly love their pizza? Nnnnno. Kudos to Baba Louie's I guess for experimenting with sourdough flour. But what makes people think that sourdough flour would be the ultimate replacement for regular, good ol' fashioned flour? While some folks are praising Baba L. for the sourdough, hubs and I found the texture unappealing and tasteless. Everything that went on top of the crust though, was tasty. My small Pomodoro Bianco with fresh mozzarella, roasted portobello, garlic, tomatoes, red onions, chevre (opted out of it), pesto and Parmesan sounds like a mouthful- but the tomato slices were too thick. Hubs liked his pepperoni pie and seasony sauce ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. Even with like 45 minutes to spare before their 3pm Sunday closing time, we were seated smoothly without the rush from our server. So much so, folks came in droves like 20 minutes to closing and weren't turned away. Our server rocked big time and handled herself like the ultimate pro from the moment she sat us, brought over our pies and when we left.

    Pomodoro Bianco Pizza

    This place was probably the best place I went to in Hudson. The pizza is good, the ambience is great, and it's very affordable Food: we ordered the promodoro bianca, ricardos pizza famosa, and the margarita pizza! They were all good! My favorite was the ricardos pizza because I enjoyed the cheese and the tangy sauce! My friends really liked the pomodoro pizza - it had a lot of veggies and used pesto instead of tomato sauce - which gave it a very different flavor. I don't recommend the margarita pizza. Price: the pizzas were very reasonable - about $22 per large pizza and $16 for a small. I split 2 larges and 1 small and it came out to about $15 per person Ambience: nice location with good seating Service: it's very slow but I think that's also becuase it's busy. But it took me over 30 minutes to get my order

    I spent a WFH week at my best friend's new place up in Hudson. After a long day of work, we called in an order for the small Dirty Brutto and the Pomodoro Bianco pizzas. Order was ready in 20s minutes for pickup and we swooped on by after picking up a bottle of wine a few storefronts down. They're only doing takeouts and the server met me at the storefront to take my name and grab our order. She was incredibly sweet and accommodating. We selected these pizzas as they were both really interesting. All of their flavor combinations are - and the fact that you can create your own with a bevy of toppings is also astounding. The pesto on the Dirty Brutto has such a strong aroma that we couldn't at first place what it was when we had the pizzas in the car. After cracking open our bottle of wine, and helping ourselves to a slice of each, we went to town finishing off the two pies. The Dirty Brutto is a hefty pizza, really fills you up and of the two, was just slightly more my favorite. I think the chèvre on the pomodoro bianco was a little off for me. Either way, now I know when I visit my friend we've got a great pizza spot to pick up dinner from!

    This is a great place if you like pizza and/or have celiac disease. The staff was knowledgeable and so kind about find out ingredients and I felt quite safe eating here. Split two gluten free pizzas and a sweet potato appetizer. All three were delicious. A great spot in Hudson!

    Do they have gluten free pizza?

    Yes, but I thought it was really average. They have a great selection of toppings so that helps. Better than nothing.

    Fellow vegans who came- how are the vegan choices? Read on a review many choices but on website just says vegan cheese?

    Hey Heather, just wanted to let you know all our pizzas can be made vegan. Our soups are always vegan. All our breads are vegan and we are working on a vegan dessert. We usually have a choice of house made banana ice cream or pineapple cheese cake.… Read more

Our table was in the same room as the bar but next to the fireplace. The bar doesn't have actual seating - they have tables in front of it which is nice and keeps the intimate, moody quiet vibe. It definitely had a romantic vibe with the fire, the lighting and lots of flowers throughout hanging from the ceiling. My only complaint is that there was a table with kids who were pretty noisy in the beginning. Not exactly what I was expecting for my Valentine's Day dinner but that's what I get for an early dinner! The food was excellent overall. We had a sense of what we wanted but then the server came over and told us the specials which threw us for a loop! I was dead set on getting pasta because Feast & Floret is known for their homemade pasta but we ended up ordering a few different plates: Quail Special - This was my first time ever having quail. The plate came out with 2 whole birds and to say I wasn't nervous would be a lie. It was a little salty (not sure if maybe it should be) but tender and delicious. It came with creamed Kale and nuts. Chilled Beets with Mint - Weird having with a hot meal but still so good. Butternut Squash Arancini -- A must try. You can taste a hint of butternut squash. It wasn't too overpowering. Affogato - The simplest dessert on the menu but worth it. Regarding drinks, try their Honey Old Fashioned. I'm not a whiskey drinker but always try my girlfriend's drink when we go out. Their Honey Old Fashioned was so good that it made me want to order one for myself! Feast & Floret also sells their own honey. Before we left to get to the show, I had asked about making our own bouquet. Grace, the florist, allowed us to pick what we liked and she arranged our bouquet

We started with their signature focaccia, fresh out of the oven. Then, a seasonal Asparagus Tarte that was very much a deconstructed version: a delicious butter crust at the bottom of the plate, frisée lettuce, perfectly prepared asparagus topped with a pecorino creme vinaigrette. The perfect spring dish. Next was a Tuna crudo with ramp oil, watermelon radishes, fresh microgreens and toasted hazelnuts. Finally, their take on a Frisée aux Lardons, served with pickled figs. The lardons themselves were nicely crisped, and very satisfying. We had Negronis for cocktails, and a generous carafe of rose, served off the tap. All around one of the best meals I've had. Can't wait for the next menu that Chef Jeffrey Gimmel puts together. Apparently this is a monthly series, so keep a look out and don't miss the June dinner, guessing end of June on a Saturday night?

I tried three items: the blueberry corn cookie, maple cruller, and the bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich. All were fantastic. The corn cookie was a novelty. It was crumbly and slightly gritty, as corn pastries tend to be. It wasn't too sweet. Although I'm glad I tried it, the cookie pales in comparison to the cruller, which was deliciously sweet, with crisp edges and a soft, custardy interior. The sandwich was great, as well. The eggs were fluffy, the bun soft, the bacon thick and crisp. It was good! If you're visiting Hudson, make this your first stop!

    Juicy deliciously spiced chicken is here!!…read more Very focused menu here and I love that.. means what they offer is what they do really well. Rotisserie chicken is their thing. You can get the whole chicken, half or quarter. For me, quarter was more than enough. If you get a quarter chicken, you get two sides. If you get half a chicken, then you get three sides. I feel like it should be the opposite to offset the amount of food. But honestly it was perfect, still a big portion. For sides, they offer crispy fingerling potatoes, cole slaw, market salad and butter rice. Their Cole slaw is amazing with that poppyseed dressing. And salad had a variety of greens and crunchy toppings with a light dressing. Also! The plate comes with two sauces - spicy chili oil (mild) and yogurt dip. It was all SO FREAKING GOOD. I'm a dipper so bring on the sauce! The drink offering is also abundant. Lots of craft sodas, botanical drinks, coffees and a full bar in the back. Ghia hit the spot for me. It's not cheap but for this quality of food it's more than worth it. For the vibe..it's a confused vibe. You order at the counter and sit down with a number to wait for your food. The decor is eclectic which I thought was fun. But the music.. it went from country to weird edm dance music. I think Kittys can gain a lot from a curated playlist. Sitting there I felt curious and excited to be immersed more but it wasn't giving.

    *review is for upstairs menu*…read more My partner and I have been regularly visiting Hudson for seven (!) years now yet we never made a point of visiting this space when it was a barbeque spot. During our most recent visit, I took a walk up and down Warren to see if there were any new stores I wanted to investigate, and there was Saint Florian, cozy and inviting, emanating warmth. It was a particularly frigid weekend so the warmth part (plus the signage) really drew me in. Just a few hours later and there we were upstairs, eating some delicious food and not wanting to leave. Because the weather was miserable, a reservation opened up pretty quickly after I got on the Resy notify list (the restaurant also called me). The upstairs is only open on Fridays and Saturdays so we took advantage of it being a weekend, but the downstairs menu looks fantastic as well and has plenty of overlap with the upstairs menu, though as one would expect it's a bit more casual. While the downstairs was relatively empty, upstairs was almost completely full, pretty impressive for bad weather. Overall, the space itself is quite large and I'm excited to see it buzzing with more life in the warmer months, because it definitely has the potential (both in vibes and in food) to be one of the new go-to spots in Hudson. I think Saint Florian deserves closer to a 4.5 star rating, but the only letdown was the cocktails (the wine was fantastic). I got the Martini Classico w/ gin, which was decent but not even close to cold enough, while my partner got the Royal Punch (rum, citrus blend, maraschino, lime). He disliked it more than I did and he remarked that a squeeze from the lime wedge garnish improved the overall flavor profile, but it still was a lackluster drink. The wine was redeeming, though, as the red and orange we got were both excellent and described to us in impressive detail prior to us ordering them. Food-wise, Saint Florian definitely markets itself as a steakhouse but there are plenty of other exciting menu options in addition to steak. We ended up getting three appetizers and two smaller entrees and it was the perfect amount of food. Eats, below: Beet salad w/ winter citrus: A Definitely the winning appetizer of the night. It made great use of seasonal produce and was presented beautifully. All elements of flavor and texture you'd want are there - a light dusting of cheese, cashews for some crunch, microgreen garnish, thinly sliced beets and blood orange that were as flavorful as they were vibrant. NJ Big Eye Tuna Crudo w/ rhubarb, gooseberry, celery, chive: A- This was one of the nightly specials. A solid dish though the flavors were a bit muted for our liking. Still very good, with fresh fish with thinly sliced gooseberries for some sweetness (again, props for using winter produce and an underappreciated one at that). Could've been made even better with a little chip or crostini or something on the side to add some texture. Gem Lettuce Caesar w/ House Dressing, Boquerones, Cotija, Garlic Crumbs: A- Decent but not memorable. I enjoy whole anchovies in a Caesar but something about the way this was executed didn't quite do it for me. Still, if you like Caesar salads (and they are always a go-to at a steakhouse), this is still a good option. Steelhead trout with lentils, labneh: A The fish listed on the online menu is now a cod, so I'm glad I got this one instead - both because I prefer steelhead trout to cod and the accompanying elements in this one are more exciting to me than those being offered with the cod. Anyway, enough about that because this dish was stellar. I mean, look at the picture - how could this be bad? The fish was perfectly cooked, the lentils and labneh giving the dish some earthiness and heartiness while still somehow managing to be light. Really expertly done and I loved every bite. Petite Wagyu Filet w/ Brown Butter Bearnaise: A Though I am not a steak person, my partner very much is, so of course we had to try some steak. I had a bite of it at least, and it was very good (for steak, that is - even the best steak in the world doesn't really do it for me, but I can tell when it is well-done --- in quality, not temperature!!). The brown butter bearnaise was heavenly and my partner ended up wishing he had saved the leftover to put on various other things he ate during the remainder of the trip.

    "We don't have a cocktail menu, but we can make anything you'd like."…read more That was one of the first things our server told us, and honestly, it was refreshing. These days, it feels like every bar has a cocktail menu full of creatively named drinks that require reading a list of ingredients just to figure out what you're ordering. At Governor's Tavern, if you want a gin and tonic, you simply ask for a gin and tonic. The only decision you need to make is which gin you'd like. I'm not much of a cocktail person, but I appreciate that not every place feels the need to reinvent the wheel. The place was packed at lunchtime, but we got lucky and grabbed a pair of seats across from the bar. The server who I quoted was genuinely friendly and welcoming. I ordered a Guinness, but unfortunately the keg had just kicked. She recommended the Samuel Smith chocolate stout instead and even brought me a sample before I committed to taste since I never heard of it, which was a nice touch.
