    Avocado dip
    Cassie T.

    This place is always busy, it's best to make reservations. The ambiance, service, and food are all great. Everything we ordered was absolutely great. We ordered the avocado dip and shrimp cocktail to share and I ordered the Hudson salad which was massive. 10/10 for everything. Definitely a spot I would come back for dinner or happy hour.

    I visited one of Houston's hot spots this weekend and I think it's safe to say that understand why. We had a reservation for 12 for my homegirls bday so they can definitely accommodate a large group. As soon as I walk in the smell of fresh truffle fries will smack you right in your face and I absolute loved it. This is such a perfect place to have lunch on a beautiful afternoon and apparently they have a nice happy hour from 3-6 on weekdays so I'll have to check that out. Okay so let's talk about how one of these frozen Bellinis almost had me laid out in the middle of the afternoon. Their drinks are so strong and soo good you wouldn't even see sneaking up on you! The food was also phenomenal! I Powell's had the dynamite shrimp and the lobster roll with truffle fries and I have no critiques, it was perfect! Everyone at my table loved their food as well, I literally didn't here or complaint. Also Shoutout to our server Jenifer she was amazing and the customer service was top tier! I was late to the party but will definitely be back for more .

    Burger, Hudson salad

    Every dish was incredibly fresh, flavorful, and thoughtfully presented. You can tell the ingredients are high quality and that a lot of care goes into the preparation. The Hudson salad has to be the best salad I've EVER had!! The portions are generous and each bite was better than the last. Good service & attention to detail! The ambiance at Hudson is chill yet feels like an elevated dining experience.

    Service 5 stars! The place is nicely decorated, has a fun atmosphere and great art pieces all over the walls. Located in bustling Rice village. I found street parking for free a block down. There paid lots, and garage also. I think there is valet in that area as well. Came here for the first time with a group of Yelpers. We had a resy. But it wasn't full when we arrived at 11:30a on a Saturday but it filled up as the afternoon went on. Food- after reading the reviews there was the one thing that seemed to have positive feedback, so I went with that. I ordered the burger and it was yum. They have a lobster roll, that my friends had ordered. That thing seemed so tiny, and the reviews were mid so I steered clear. Service- was fabulous. Our server was Nicholas Tilman. He was so good to us, was charming, fun, and gave great service despite being so busy. He was the bartender made all of the drinks and the server, double duty is a lot. Management reading this: please give this man a raise. He didn't rush us out. Drink- I got a mocktail that our server created, and was happy with. My friends enjoyed there cocktails as well. I like that there is an option to scan a QR code and still split checks for each person at the table. Then pay online rather than wait for a individual check for each person. It's very efficient. If this is the new system of dining, I am loving it. I would def come back specifically for this server.

    My friends and I like to do a monthly brunch to catch up and eat good food. Hudson House was our stop this month. This is their second location in Houston and is located in Rice Village. If you're from Houston, you know this area is busy, especially on the weekends. You do have to pay for parking out front or go to the garage where I believe parking is free the first two hours. Reservations are highly recommended. We were some of the first customers of the day but it got really busy after the few hours we were here. Customer service here was top notch. When we arrived, they put us in a booth with four place settings, but we were a party of five. Without hesitation, the hostess moved us to a larger corner booth and got us comfortable. The star of the show was Nicolas though. He was our waiter/bartender. He was doing it all. He was super friendly and very helpful. He was also making drinks as they were ordered. He definitely went above and beyond! I didn't come super hungry so I skipped on appetizers. I saw some of their popular items being delivered to nearby tables and regretted that choice. I did start off with an espresso martini which was very tasty. I usually lean towards breakfast items at brunch but totally went the other direction and got the French Chicken. It's sous vide chicken breasts that are sliced thinly with a Cajun seasoning and a lemon sauce on top. This chicken was excellent. I usually like dark meat, but the slow cooking made for a very juicy chicken. It was also served with skinny fries and an arugula salad. It was a very well balanced meal. You got the light chicken and salad with a little mound of fries as the indulgent part of the meal. I would get this again. My group got a variety of popular items and every plate was clean by the time we were done. I like that you have a QR code at the table to pay your bill and they even allow for the bill to be split. I think all restaurants should do it this way. Overall, I really liked Hudson House and it will definitely be a place I will be coming back to.

    Lobster Roll & Parm Truffle Fries
    Wendy H.

    I've been to Hudson House a few times now, most recently last Saturday with my sister. We had a reservation, which is definitely needed since they book up every weekend. Even though it was super busy, our waitress was incredibly attentive. I've also come during the week for happy hour, and their drink deals are really good. This time around, I ordered a lemon drop martini, which was good, but I think I still prefer their French 75. For food, I had the lobster roll, which was buttery and delicious, and of course the truffle parmesan fries, which are always a go-to. My sister ordered the cheeseburger, and having tried it before, I know it's really good as well. We also shared the lobster mac and cheese -- it was good, but I'd probably skip it next time and try something else instead. Overall, we really enjoyed our dinner and will definitely keep coming back.

    My coworkers and I might've found a new favorite happy hour spot here at Hudson House! Service was great. Our server checked on us often, always making sure we didn't want another drink lol. She convinced us to order a few, but they were good drinks. We loved the lemon drops with the limoncello foam and the stonefruit with the peach vodka. Had to be careful as those can sneak up on you. We snacked on the avocado dip. Loved the ranch chips that went with it. We also got the truffle parm fries. Finished them both. We heard good things about the burgers for happy hour. They did not disappoint. The patties were juicy and the cheese perfectly melted on. The spicy pickles were a plus. Highly recommend for happy hour!

    Spicy tuna Crispy rice
    Erma D.

    I visited Hudson House from Florida and had a fantastic time! Tiago and Octavio were extremely nice and helpful, starting from the door - the service was very hospitable. I tried the raw bar - Spicy tuna crispy rice and sunset rolls were a hit!!! For entree, I went with the French Chicken (left the butter sauce on the side) and definitely recommend. It's a bit loud, but you can still hold a conversation. Love the scan-and-pay option too! Adding Hudson House to my list for quick and healthy eats next time I'm back.

    Hudson House salad
    Maureen H.

    I've wanted to go here since they opened and today finally did! My friend and I met there for lunch. The restaurant is beautiful with a lot of gorgeous booths. The service was stellar, our server was so so nice! The manager stopped by to say hello. We both had the Hudson House salad. It was DELICIOUS! It was huge, and had a beautifully sliced avocado, bacon, fried chicken nuggets, cheddar cheese, marinated tomatoes, and served with the best green goddess dressing. We had to get 1/2 to go because it is so filling! I saw some of the cocktails being served, and they looked so good. We plan on going for happy hour sometime. I highly recommend!

    Truffle fries
    Ashley G.

    I have been wanting to check this place out and happy it popped up when I was looking for food while in the area shopping. There is paid parking in the front and free parking in the garage for the first two hours. The menu was limited but I enjoyed the food options and definitely stuffed when I left. The food came out to be about $120 before tip. I ordered the east coast oysters. The housemade vinaigrette paired perfectly on top of the oysters. While truffle fries didn't stay hot for long, I enjoyed them nevertheless. The burger was one of the best burgers I have had in awhile. The bun was sweet & savory with two smash burger patties. The salad was a great size as well! The wine selection was pretty good as well.

    Dynamite shrimp
    Habiba A.

    Ordered the crispy tuna rolls and dynamite shrimp- were absolutely delicious! My friends ordered the steak frites, lobster eggs Benedict, and Hamptons French toast- which were all equally delicious. Our waitress was lovely and the ambiance was very relaxed casual, great for a girls weekend brunch!

    Jen H.

    I loved coming here for happy hour! We got a couple drinks each and some food. The truffle fries were divine and very addicting. The burger was hearty and nicely cooked--nothing special complaints there. The spicy crispy tuna rice was also very yummy. Usually the happy hour specials are only applicable at the bar, but we were sat at a table, and they still honored the deals. The inside of the restaurant had a very relaxed old-school money feel.

    Burgers, lobster Mac and cheese
    Yasameen N.

    This place is my absolute favorite! The happy hour is amazing....oysters, martinis, burgers, you can't beat it. It's the perfect spot to unwind after work. The burger and truffle fries are always my go-to, but everything I've tried has been delicious. The other day I was waiting at the bar and they surprised me with free sushi ( they made extra and instead of throwing it out; they gave it to happy customer )....it was so good! I shared it with the people next to me at the bar and my friend who joined me later. Also note: they have two locations...one in River oaks and a brand new location in rice village. They are both great! I've eaten at both.

Extremely kind service from the hosts through the entire team. The best balance of conversational and storytelling without being overbearing. We never felt rushed and they made the experience feel personal, and felt we truly got to know the restaurant and reasoning behind a few of the dishes just through their excitement. We ordered coffees along with the crab hush puppies, gumbo, avocado toast, and ended with their massive cinnamon roll. It was the perfect spread and everything was so flavorful! (My only critique was I wish the cinnamon roll was warmed up and served with a bit more icing). The interior was fabulous with an amazing aroma. I would highly recommend for anywhere from an intimate date to a group brunch! Beautiful bar as well, I cannot wait to come again another night for dinner.

Faves were Key Allegro, Mermaid Tears, & Matagorda Pearls. Capo Hugo was alright. Sides: pommes puree (whipped potato) & wood grilled asparagus - these were good Got a bite of the overpriced burger and that was the best entree out of the ones that were ordered. Fries were delicious and addicting too! Classic blackened redfish was ok; nothing special. Le Entrecôte (steak frites) was also ok; some steak pieces were hard to chew. Was NOT a fan of the lobster fettuccine. Surprisingly bland and barely any lobster meat for the cost of that dish. Ended the night with dessert. Basque cheesecake tasted great! Banana foster was pretty good. Grab a cookie on the way out of the restaurant! Don't see myself coming back here for dinner, but I'm open to trying their brunch menu.

Something simple that should be an easy win. Unfortunately, everything leaned the same direction: either it was heavy, over-sauced, or overly garlicky. It tasted more like dressed-up frozen food than something thoughtfully prepared. And listen...I don't mind indulgent. But there still has to be balance and fresh food. Fresh like it was raw and delivered today, not fresh like fried in the last 15 mins. When everything is coated, covered, and competing, nothing actually stands out. The drinks didn't help either. They leaned hard on alcohol without much flavor behind them--more "this will get you there" than "this tastes good." Nothing was terrible. But nothing made me want another bite, either. And with seafood, that's kind of the whole point. The atmosphere is friendly, great music, and the service was very attentive. Even the presentation wasn't bad. It just wasn't enough. But at some point, you stop asking what's missing and just accept that it's not landing. I was still hungry so I went next door hoping for a better experience. I want to be clear: It's not bad. It's just not working.

We went on a Saturday for lunch. Hopefully this was just a one-off, but if you're looking for good Cajun boiled crawfish, this is not it. We started off with 6 lbs (group of 4) of their regular crawfish. First off, they put the Cajun seasoning on outside/shell (!!), which is a cardinal sin for Cajuns. They also minimally seasoned the boil, so the meat was lacking salt and flavor. We ordered 3 more lbs with the "wet sauce" (garlic butter), thinking the lack of flavor may be attributed to this being the first-ish batch of the day. Nope, the second batch was even less seasoned than the first. The sauce was good, but it didn't make up for the unseasoned meat. The crawfish were a good size, at least... Come on guys, I expect more from a Gulf Coast seafood restaurant!
