Sorry that this review was sitting in my drafts since December! Came here after work for happy hour. At first I got a little anxious because the bar was so busy, and loud. what stood out most was the service from Jenna, who was honestly a great bartender and really made the night feel welcoming. I wish I could say the same for the other bartender I saw, who came off a bit uncourteous to a man who accidentally spilled his shot. I tried a couple of their happy hour bites. The pineapple chili wings were juicy, flavorful, and good. On the other hand, my friend's garlic parm was kind of dry and flat in flavor, which was disappointing. Drinks were okay, but mine felt a bit weak on the alcohol side, especially for the price. Overall, it felt a little overpriced for what we got. Good for a night out and social energy, but a bit inconsistent depending on what you order and who's working. read more

If you come here because it's the longest happy hour in town 4-8, get ready to be staring out an empty glass for at least 3/4th of that... absolute abysmal service during the happy hour, only checked on 1 time to put in my initial order... I'm still sitting here wondering if my server walked out on the job? 2 hours in only checked on once. The food was very standard, oysters and Brussels sprouts were good. Pizza reminded me of my middle school lunch and the fish tacos tasted... fishy. Sad hour, not happy hour this go around read more

Greeting (Edele ) She sat us and was a great waitress. Food - 3 Baja Fish Tacos - Spicy Rigatoni - Brownie - shrimp cocktail (not mine) but it was all gone - Bacon, Brunch burger not mine. It looks good. we sat outside I don't mind. It was a cool night no mosquitoes. everything was good so is the mood. I can return here. Nothing was wrong with the rigatoni at all, but if it came in another type of pasta, like Angel hair linguine, or shells with that same sauce, but it was very heavy. I ate everything though. read more

The service was fine but the calamari was ok until I was eating more of it and realized how overly fried it was. My stomach didn't react well to it. read more

Great place to eat. We stopped by for brunch, and tried a few dishes. They have plenty of outdoor seating, but inside is just as great. Nice ambiance, friendly staff, and decent wait time between sit down and leave (roughly just over an hour). My recommendation: Try the pineapple chili wings and the double cut French toast. Both were absolutely amazing and delicious. The wings were saucy, just sweet enough with a little zing of heat. The French toast was fluffy and had an amazing tiramisu flavor. I would go back and order those two dishes without question. We also had the peach flavored carafe of mimosa and it was good. Definitely more champagne forward than juice and we enjoyed it. It will easily provide at least 4-6 total glasses full. The chicken and waffles though, left a lot to be desired. It was more of a thin chicken cutlet on a (good) fluffy waffle. The ratio wasn't there, not much flavor, and it definitely needs some help. It would've been great to see it be a bigger piece of chicken, waffle, and maybe seasoned it with the hot honey or hot sauce. Just something to give it a boost. Overall, it was a nice visit and I'd go back and try other things. read more

Service was working hard they could use more wait staff. There are plenty of very attentive busboys but our waiter was hard to find. Wasn't even that crowded. Food was lackluster. Ordered a steak salad was blah try something else. My friend's hamburger was good. Fries were good. Bloody mary terrible. Espresso Martini was good. I would not return again for food. Evening weekend scene...they move tables and have dj. Night scene is fun for young people and minors with fake IDs. They can do better. read more

Stopped in on our way home on 95. Great food and atmosphere! Our server was excellent, along with the rest of the staff. Grilled chicken sandwich was perfect :) Excellent place for an outdoor meal! read more

I pass this restaurant everyday - today I decided to stop and check it out. They open at 4pm and are closed on Monday and Tuesday. I ordered the pizza, bbq wings and french fries which is a great combination together. I have yet to see a restaurant in Stamford mess up pizza. The pizza was on point, cheesy with soft chewy crust. The wings had a lot of bbq sauce on it and it wasn't too sweet just a good kind of messy. The fries was a crispy skinny shoestring that was not over cooked. I was extremely happy with my choices. The drinks - I started with a French Martini. I hesitated to order that but I said why not. It was actually pretty good, a perfect blend. Then I had to try the sangria and I can say it was an excellent choice. This was real sangria with the right ingredients. The staff was extremely busy running back and forward but did an excellent job keeping up with the demands of the customers. The restaurant opened at 4pm by 5pm it was packed. The restaurant was clean and the restroom was immaculate. read more

We had heard many good things about Joey Pizza and finally decided to try it. Upon arriving, we were astonished at how beautiful the decor of the place was. We were promptly greeted and seated by the host. The customer service was great. The servers were attentive and super nice. That was honestly the highlight of the stay! After placing our order, we patiently waited for 10 minutes. We decided to try the truffle Mac and cheese. It was alright, but it seemed like it was missing a little something. The flavor was a bit plain. Later on, we had the Joey pizza, and it was fantastic! A decent size and the pricing was reasonable. All in all, it was a pleasant visit. We will certainly return to explore more items on their menu. read more

Our family booked Hudson Social for a small bridal shower for my niece in March. we LOVED EVERYTHING! living out of the state, we not have an opportunity to visit the venue before secure after we spoke with Miguel the owner. We were not disappointed.. Our food was wonderful;large servings fresh ingredients, and variety of options available for our. We would highly recommend Hudson Social for your next special event or just place to stop for a quick bite to eat. read more

Came here for brunch with family. The service was great and it was empty when we came in which was good. There is also a parking lot behind the restaurant. Rates: up to 1/2 hr $2.00, up to 1 hr $3.00, up to 2 hr $5.00, All day $10.00 I had the CLASSIC MORNING BREAKFAST* scrambled eggs, bacon, hash browns, toast. We also had SMOKED SALMON BREAKFAST* eggs, toast, crushed avocado, mixed greens, hash browns. It looked good though. But it just tasted okay, even the orange juice didn't taste good. Prices were not horrible, might come back and try a different food option. read more

We left after sitting at our table with tap water and menus for half an hour with no waiter in sight.

Great food. Awful service. Dave was never to be found. Thank goodness for the busboys. They were terrific.

Hudson has a little bit for everyone. We try to stop whenever we are in town. Their happy hour goes later than all places on Bedford (7pm) and has things you won't find other places like oysters, mussels, and vegetarians options. Tables fill up quickly most nights for dinner and the bar stays busy late into the night esp on the weekends. Service is on point and the Manager, Miguel, is always available if an issue arises. Wish they were open on Monday's and Tuesday's but maybe in the summer. read more

Was looking forward to happy hour here but it was pretty typical. The food wasn't anything better than good. In general, the food was all a bit dry. Drinks were priced well - happy hour wine was $5/glass (that's what I got). The atmosphere and service is great. I would come back for drinks and to catch a game in tv but I probably wouldn't eat here again. read more

If you are black or a POC do NOT spend your money here; long story short I waited at the bar to order some drinks, it was busy but this WW bartender 's message was eventually received loud and clear. After 20 minutes of her walking past me, serving people who came after me, and serving a WM who walked up next to me, I LEFT and my friends and I won'tcome back. So, terrible terrible service and I'm posting the picture of her so if you see her at the bar DON'T tip her...but really don't give this place any of your money. read more

Food was horrible. Chicken in chicken and waffles I wouldn't let my dog eat. Fries were undercooked. cheese on pizza was low quality. Waiter disappeared after taking our order. What a mistake. Save yourselves. read more

Went here for brunch yesterday. It took quite a while for our waiter to reach the table and take our order. We ordered the burrata pizza to share amongst 3 of us and it was the perfect size for an appetizer. It was the perfect combo of cheesy, salty and chewy. We also got the blood orange mimosa carafe which held about 6 glasses. I also ordered the French Toast Napoleon while delicious was not what I had expected. I had expected it to be more stacked and did not expect to have it be a cinnamon raisin bread based on the menu. Additional information needed to better describe this and other items on their menu. My one complaint is that it was quite loud due to a large party in the middle of the restaurant and it felt as if the sound was bouncing off the walls and reverberating louder than reality. I would consider visiting this place against read more

We hosted a family baby shower at this venue. It was perfect! Our daughter and her husband wanted a low key event with brunch. Hudson Social didn't not disappoint! The food was great, communication before and during the event was excellent. The staff could not have been more accommodating. We booked sight unseen based on other reviews and we were not disappointed. Thank you for helping to make the day special! read more

We hadn't been here in a while and in the past the food had been ok, nothing special but tonight... WOW! New chef, great food, we'll definitely be back. I had the brick chicken which was spicy and perfectly done. My husband had the steak which was equally delicious. We also shared the Brussels sprouts with the sauce on the side: perfect. Because we're skipping potatoes at the moment we asked for broccoli. It came sautéed in garlic and oil. Unexpected and again delicious. Service was attentive and the atmosphere was pleasant considering it was a Friday night. read more

Great downtown Stamford brunch spot. Super satisfied with the service and food. Minus one star because we were told by our waiter that the Avocado Toast came with two pieces of toast only to be delivered one. However, they gave us a GENEROUS side of crispy bacon, so that made up for it! read more

Avoid happy hour here unless you want watered down lemonade, thank god it was happy hour because if I was paying full price I would've sent their "margaritas" back. Bill came to $15 and the server asked if I wanted change LOL yes....not worth a 35% tip on two drinks read more

Horrible service. The servers ignored our table of three for over an hour for a larger party and a table with two attractive girls. Definitely would not recommend trying to eat here if you're hungry. read more

Terrible service. Argumentative and aggressive server. Double charged for unlimited mimosa just for trying some that my partner ordered. Didnt even inform us of the double charge. Got the second charge off the bill (kudos to the manager for being logical and understanding), but ended up paying for extra glass of mimosa because server kept accusing us of "making the resto lose money." I just paid for an extra glass for a few sips so that resto does not lose money as the server claims. but no tip for the server throwing check on the table aggressively. Rude af. Worst stamford experience. Just find yourself another restaurant from a plenty of better options around. Or dont eat at all. Never returning. Food not that good and overpriced anyways. No wonder place has crappy review. They need to replace this rude server and things may go better for the business. read more

This place is great !! I had $1 oysters for happy hour. Normally that would make me a little nervous but they were fresh mild and awesome. Truffle Mac and cheese was so ! But make sure you share it was very rich. The small plate steak was cooked to perfection. A bit Chewy but I like it like that! The ricotta crickets were fun and not too spicy . This place is a keeper on Bedford! Fun place to hang out and food for all your friend. This may become one of my new favorite places read more

I've eaten here probably over 10 times at this point and I've never been disappointed!! Not sure if their lobster roll is still on the menu but I typically hate cold lobster and they make the best cold one I've ever had! They use a chipotle mayo instead of regular and it's sooo good!! You can't go wrong with their apps, burgers, pizzas, everything is always great! read more

5 of us went out to brunch today. Each one of us ordered something different, except 2 people ordered the same dish with steaks at different temperatures. All of our food was cold (but we were too hungry to send it back). They mixed up the steak temperature btwn the two orders. They no longer serve breakfast potatoes (little chunks with peppers/onions) and replaced it with potato hash (shredded potato). The change would have been ok, except they didn't cook it through or get much brown color on either side. They also no longer serve baskets of bread. When we asked, they said we could order a side of toasts (that doesn't come with butter or jam until you ask them). The nutella pizza and mimosa were very good. We were hungry so we didn't try to speak to the manager or anything. We've had good experiences here before so we were disappointed. Understand that times are tough for restaurant workers but the surprise automatic inclusion of 20% gratuity for a table of 5 on the bill left us a little sour after a disappointing experience today. We are happy to support the people, business and economy and would've done a 20% anyway, it's just that it was a surprise. I don't think we saw it printed on the menu. read more
