Did I know what I was getting into when I stopped for lunch in Craryville?…read more No. Sometimes you're on a road trip and you need to stop to eat. Often, these meals are nothing special - just fuel for the trip. But sometimes you get lucky. We stopped because we were hungry and because the map said there was a place to eat just off the Taconic. Right off the exit we were greeted by an old-school stainless steel diner that looked well-maintained and inviting. At this point, my expectations for the stop had already been exceeded. Inside, we learned that this was an old Silk City Diner from 1958, and the decor reflected this history. We took a comfortable booth by a window. Service was friendly. One of the day's specials was fried scallops. Now, many people might think an old roadside diner that's 100 miles from the ocean might not be a good place to order seafood, but I had a feeling I was making a good choice. I didn't even ask the waitress how the scallops were - I just ordered. The scallops were perfectly cooked, enjoyable to eat, and exceeded my expectations. They came with fries, gravy, and broccoli, which were all fine (but nothing special). It wasn't all perfect. The coffee was weak, and it didn't seem like all the food met the level of the scallops. But for a random rest stop it was fantastic. Will I be planning a trip to Craryville just to go to the Martindale Chief Diner? Probably not. But would I stop in if I was traveling through this area again? Absolutely.

They made myself and the group of people I was with feel like we were inconveniencing them for showing up to the diner expecting to pay for food. They sat us, got our initial drink and food orders and then left us there for an hour. At the hour mark, one of us went up and asked if our food was ready and only then did they bring out all of our food. In what world should the customer have to ask to be served their food? Very weird. On top of all of this, when I finally got my food it tasted like chalk. Not a drop of seasoning! Save your time and your money and skip a trip to Dad's Diner.

If you're lucky (and early enough), you might just snag a spot in their lot in the back. Village D. hits all the classic diner notes: heavy-duty, laminated multi-page menu, vinyl booths, chrome trim- you know the deal. My veggie omelette was solid for around ten bucks- packed with fresh mushrooms, peppers, onions, spinach and tomatoes. I only wished it had one more egg in the mix. The hash browns were a win: no pork, crispy edges and soft center. Hubs went for scrambled eggs topped with American cheese- his childhood fave- so no complaints there. I'm a chocolate girl through and through- but Village D's vanilla egg cream? Legit. Just the right balance of seltzer fizz, creamy milk, and quality vanilla syrup (none of that off-tasting, rancid stuff I've gotten at some diners). Service was polite, though our waitress moved at a slow pace, that didn't ruin our visit.

I was thrilled to see that Hudson Diner opened the day we arrived in town for a two-week stay. We…read morehave our favorite restaurants here that we visit every trip without fail, but we will always jump at the chance to try a new spot--especially when it's the brainchild of folks who run some of our other favorites in town. It is not surprising, then, that we thoroughly enjoyed our time here and were already planning our return before we had even finished our meal. Hudson Diner is wholesome, quirky, nurturing, fun, and affordable -- certainly a welcome addition to the dining scene! We walked in here at around 8pm on a Saturday night (they don't take reservations, at least at the time of this review). The space was about 2/3 full when we arrived, but about 15-20 minutes into our time here, it had filled up considerably. Hudson Diner took over the space that used to be Grazin' Diner, and while the bones are the same, the energy is noticeably different (read: improved). The menu at Grazin' was giving overpromising and underdelivering whereas Hudson Diner's menu is understated and what you'll receive is fresh, classic, and delicious. I heard from a friend that Hudson Diner was boasting an impressive cocktail menu, so we made that a priority upon arriving. Like the food menu, you'll see a list of well-known classics (i.e., margarita, martini, tom collins) and some lesser known classics (i.e., amaretto sour). Lately I've been more in the mood for the classics rather than that super fancy and intricate stuff, so this was exciting to me. I started with a mezcal margarita because it was a hot day and there's nothing that gets me more in that summery place. They couldn't do it spicy but they at least had salt, and it was delicious. My partner started with a Singapore Sling, which I was pleasantly surprised by (I often find them too sweet but this one was very well-balanced). I then made a hard pivot to a dirty (read: filthy) gin martini, because I am me. This one did not disappoint either! Food-wise, it's still all about the classics. Snacks/chilled apps, a bunch of salads, sandwiches/anything between bread, and mains. Yes, the bread is from Mel the Bakery. We split every as we're known to do, but it's not necessary to do shared plates style here. That said, it's always fun to try everything on the table. Eats, below: Smoked Fish Dip We threw this in at the last minute and the impulsivity paid off. Served with Saltines, which felt correct in this context. It was like very good whitefish salad, delicious and nostalgic. Greek Salad Nothing like a fresh Greek salad on a hot day. I would've liked a few more tomatoes thrown in there, especially at this time of year, but that's personal preference. Overall, a great salad that was very satisfying. Chicken Souvlaki w/ tzatziki, greek salad No frills, no problem. Little else to say about this other than it hit the spot. Chopped Steak w/ peppercorn sauce, onions, peas I was curious what "chopped steak" would be given that I've ever seen something described as such. Perhaps I was thinking it would be something similar to the way steak is served in carne asada? In this case, it was closer to hamburger than steak, the steak being "chopped" to the point of being essentially ground. My partner was surprised, but it was a moment of needing to withstand the surprise of getting something different than what you were expecting, because it was downright delicious. I loved every bit of it. Served with onions rings that we agreed were the perfect ratio of breading to onion, with space in between. Peppercorn sauce was delicious and I wish I could've gotten extra to take home and put on roasted veggies at some other meal. Lastly, I'll just say that the service was excellent. We were checked up on by multiple people throughout the meal, and water glasses were filled in a timely and efficient manner.

We decided on an ultra casual spot for dinner tonight in the Hudson Valley and ended up at the…read moreHudson Diner (717 Warren St.) in Hudson, NY. This location has been a diner for the last 80 years, but has only been operated by the current owners (who also own Mel's Bakery in Hudson, a rather famous establishment moved up to the area from Brooklyn) for the last four months. My single sentence review : "Nostalgic beverage and meal choices, in an upbeat, modernized diner, with super affable staff, at quite reasonable prices." We opted to sit at the counter and were seated immediately. The staff here seems really chill and eager to please. Kendra was our primary server for the evening, though few other people also assisted throughout the meal. My wife ordered a freshly brewed iced tea and for nostalgia purposes I order a Utica Club Lager. For anyone who went to college in upstate NY during the 1970s, when the drinking age was still 18, as we did in Ithaca, you can relive your drinking days with a taste of Utica Club, Miller Lite, or even the much sought after Genesee Cream Ale; the only beer missing was a bottle of Rolling Rock. lol Ah, the memories. While the memories are great the taste has not improved over the last 50 years, so I rather quickly ordered a Manhattan up, which was quite satisfying. I think Kendra appreciated our playfulness and took our orders for dinner. The menu at the Hudson Diner is tight--burgers, a few other sandwiches, a few apps, and three entrees. Their special for the night was another burger. But the place was packed, so obviously they're doing well, probably due to the nostalgic cocktails (e.g., when is the last time you've seen a Singapore Sling on a cocktail menu?) and the quality of the burgers. We are not burger for dinner people, so we cast our dining sights elsewhere. My wife ordered a tuna melt, one of her favs, which came with extra crispy fries, per her request. I ordered the chopped steak medium rare, talk about a nostalgic dish, which came with gravy, peas and onions, and onion rings. We both enjoyed our meals, but were not wowed by the flavors. My chopped steak was perfectly cooked, more on the rare rather than the medium side (which I preferred) and the meat was very flavorful. But the peas and onions, which were clearly frozen, while hot, were not really cooked through and lacked flavor. As for my onion rings . . . I have to admit that I didn't like the dark look of the fry when I first received my plate. However, the fry was crunchy, grease-free and the onions were tender, succulent, and a really good flavor. The gravy which came with the steak was nothing memorable. We both almost finished our meals, spent some time chatting with the staff about the history of this location--it's been a diner for 80 years under many different names--received our bill, paid and said our thanks to Kendra and the staff as we headed out into the night illuminated by a full moon. The Hudson Diner is definitely a fun place to dine and have some old-school cocktails, relax with the background music and probably enjoy a well-made burger.
