This was such an amazing experience to with two incredible chefs dual it out on three courses, over three hours. Sitting up close to the kitchen, we got to see them cook and plate their appetizers, entree and desserts dishes from scratch, incorporating the ingredients that were given to them. Throughout the cooking, we also interacted with the chefs, asking them about the dishes, and also getting some samples of the dishes before they were served. We arrived for Sunday dinner reservation right on time. It was small space with about 20 spots. BYOB place, no cork fee. Half of the seat were around the kitchen. There was a scoring sheet for each guest with names of both chefs, the ingredients of the day and the rules. The chefs got 45 minutes for preparing their appetizers, 35 minutes for entree and 20 minutes for desserts. It was impressive to see both chefs were precise with their timing. The dishes prepared by both chefs were so masterful, had intricacy of combining the ingredients and coming up with some sumptuous flavors. Salmon and steaks were cooked perfectly. It was extremely difficult to score the chefs on barest of margins and pick a winner. But per the rules I did pick Chef Ryan Beegel over Chef Alexis Sicklick. The host was also super nice and funny. She did a super job of explaining all aspects of the dinner, cleaning out plates after each round and serving all the drinks. Truly it was one of a kind TV Show like experience for us. read more

What a wonderful experience! We booked a Chef Competition for my husband's birthday. It was so much fun. The chefs get the ingredients 90mins before guests arrive. They planed for appetizers, entrees and desserts (you get 2 of everything). It has time restrictions on each part. You get to yell 5,4,3,2,1 like the real show. Then you will judge it based on presentation creativity and taste. You will have to pick a winner at the end. The host went one by one and made us pick OUT LOUD (she said you all want the experience, this is the part of the experience lol). The food were amazing from both chefs. The taste and presentation were excellent. I love and admire both chefs' creativity. I highly recommend to try it. It's reservation only and it gets filled up quickly (20 spots per competition). Hudson Table also offers cooking class and special events. read more

I stopped by here for a birthday event. Where they booked to location for a cooking class. We broke into groups and each table made every recipe on the chosen menu They start off with demoing some chopping techniques, not all are used but it had some good takeaways as they do try to teach you something. It was a fun time once you get into making it with your group. The food turned out mostly good. But you can taste where it may have gone wrong and you can do better trying similar recipes. For example the salad may have been on the sweeter side but there was lots of flavor to it and it was up to the maker of that dressing to suit their taste. Or the pasta was a little tough so maybe it was undercooked. I started to pick up on things like that, which hopefully will improve my own skills for other things I cook. Overall it was a good experience. It was a little on the pricey side as it was mainly giving the right ingredients and quantity so you can not make mistakes. The demo where they teach you things, was okay to miss unless you're cooking for the very first time. So the value I received from it didn't match the price but I think it was a positive experience especially going with people I know read more

Ambiance: great space! There's the first row which is like a booth setting in front of the chefs and the second row is like more dining tables! I enjoyed the second row feel because we could get and watch but still have space to eat. The front row does fill up faster too Service: The service was amazing! There's a mc and it felt like the Netflix show culinary wars. We really enjoyed the chef competition aspect of it Food $$: The food was amazing there's two appetizers, 2 entrees, and 2 desserts (one from each chef). We were very satisfied and full from each chef. From each dish you judge and rate each chef. Then at the end we say which chef won in our eyes. Audience: Solo Trip [ ] Family Friendly [ ] Friends [ ] Date Spot [X] Recommendations/tips: I highly recommend! Great for birthday or valentines read more

When I saw that Hudson Table offers Chef Competition events, I knew it would be a fun option for my husband and me to check out. The format is basically like the show Chopped - two chefs (with the help of a sous chef) must prepare 3 different courses (app/entrée/dessert) using the ingredients from a mystery basket and are judged by the group. They have a certain amount of time for each round/course, and each mystery basket ingredient must only be used once over the 3 dishes. Each event is capped at 20 people - 12 seats at the counter and 8 seated at two tables behind the counter. Counter seats are only $10 more, however if the counter is sold out, it's totally fine to have a table seat. They encourage you to stand up and walk around, engaging with the chefs as they are preparing each dish. They have tasting sticks and allow you to taste sauces as they are being prepared. It's an intimate setting and it's a great way to learn about their techniques and the various ingredients. Watching them plate 20 dishes is incredible. All the food they prepared was delicious - there wasn't a bad dish. It's basically like having two full 3-course meals however you can take home any leftovers if you can't finish it all. You don't know the mystery ingredients ahead of time and they can't accommodate any allergies/preferences so that's something to keep in mind if you have allergies or are a picky eater. Our main proteins were chicken and steak so no issues there. At the end of each course, you have a score card where you rate each dish on presentation, creativity, and taste. At the end of the final round, we went around the room and told the chefs who we think should be crowned the night's winner. No getting out of telling them to their faces who was your favorite! It was a really fun night. The hostess was great and kept everyone pumped up and made sure our carafe of water was full. Both chef Ed and Guillermo were really cool and friendly - it was great to chat with them. They are amazing chefs. Some tips: don't be late! Don't dress too warmly especially if you are seated at the counter - it gets warm if you are near the stove burners. Bring wine - they have ice buckets for white/rosé. Book as soon as the calendar goes live if you want a counter seat. You are going to smell like oil/fried food when you leave... so ladies, don't get a fresh blowout ahead of time! read more

I went to Hudson Table for the chef competition and it was such a fun unique experience! I did not have a front row seat but that was okay because we were welcome to get up and walk around to engage and talk with the chefs which made the experience even better. They even gave out samples as they were cooking, it was truly like you were on a cooking show! The service was great and the food was delicious. It was a neat way to experience different meals that I normally wouldn't order if I was at a restaurant. We left so full and had to take leftovers to go. Loved that it was BYOB! At the end they went around for everyone to say who their winner was. The experience was a bit pricey but it was definitely worth it and I would recommend it! read more

Hudson Table - Hoboken tickets are the most coveted tickets right now. The 1st half of next month's tickets goes live mid month at 12pm and the second half goes live one week later. After 2 months of setting up reminders and alarms, I was able to secure two 1st Row Counter Seating tickets to the live 3 course chef competition between Chef Koray and Chef Simon on Friday, June 07, 2024 from 6:30pm-9:30pm at Hudson Table - Hoboken to celebrate both myself and my friend's June birthdays. We both are fans of cooking shows like Chopped, Iron Chef, and Hell's Kitchen. The day before the event, I received a reminder with the address, street parking and a nearby parking garage information, reminder that the event cannot accommodate any dietary restrictions or allergies, no changes (refund/reschedule) to your reservation, and the event is BYOB so we could bring beer, wine or champagne to enjoy throughout the event (hard liquor is not permitted). There is a Wine and Liquor (Spirits) store located right through the tunnel called Wine Dad's so no worries if you can't buy anything beforehand. My friend and I took the 126 NJ Transit bus from Port Authority and it was a very quick ride and we didn't have to worry about parking. Amanda, the wonderful hostess, checked us in and showed us where we could sit on the counter. A kale pistachio pesto dip with bread welcomed us. This dip was delicious and there was an opportunity to purchase it as well. She also gave us a wine bucket with ice for our two bottles of wine. Around 6:30pm, she welcomed all of us to the competition and went through some housekeeping items like showing us the sample spoons, the ability to walk around and interact with the chefs, judging rules, agenda for the night (40 minutes to prepare the appetizer, 35 minutes to prepare the entree, and 25 or 30 minutes to prepare the desserts), no ties for the winner, and then the chefs introduced themselves. Chef Koray and Chef Simon faced off in a multi-course culinary battle; Iron Chef style. They used mystery ingredients to create an appetizer, a main course and a dessert. I was able to see every step and converse with them while the chefs and sous-chefs prepared the meals. At the end of each course, I judged each plate on presentation, taste, and creativity. Once all the courses were prepared and served, we went around the room to announce who our winner was. It was such a tough decision because all the dishes prepared by the chefs and sous-chefs were so good, flavorful, delicious, appetizing, and succulent. If you cannot finish the food, there are to go boxes and those definitely came in handy. This experience is definitely an unforgettable one. I would love to do this chef competition again and highly recommend it. The other people in the class were really friendly too and it was nice to share this experience with them. read more

We had a wonderful time!!! A lot of fun helping to prepare the food. Staff was great. Food was delicious.

Came here on a Sunday night for Sunday pasta dinner class. The place was a bit hard to find even with the directions given. I parked in the trader joes parking decking because i couldn't bother look for parking. Upon entering we were greated, checked in, and told to sit anywhere. Me and my sister sat at a table and were the inly ones without another pair, but we were fine with that. We were given instructions on how to properly use a knife and different cutting techniques. I thought that we would've been cooking along side of the Chef, but we were basically given directions on how to cook stuff and had to take it from there. Although the chef and the sous chefs were very helpful , I would've rather cooked alongside the chefs going step-by-step instead of just giving instructions on a piece of paper. Since me and my sister were the only two in our sector, we had a lot of help from the Chef and the sous chef to make sure we could keep up with everything. Ultimately, the class was very good. I'm definitely going to schedule another class. Our food came out amazing (it may be the best out of the whole class lol). we made Pido pasta, meatballs in a red sauce, a grilled, Caesar salad, and biscotti cookies. we were also garlic bread and ice . We had a ton of leftovers and when I mean a ton I mean a ton. The food was supposed to feed four and it was only the two of us so you can only imagine. All in all, I had a great experience, and I would recommend this to anybody. read more

Overall, the party itself turned out nice and the staff were friendly and helpful, which I do appreciate. The kids had a great time, and the experience as a whole was enjoyable. However, the way the billing was handled was extremely disappointing and honestly very misleading. I was told that adding two additional guests would not be a problem, and at no point was I informed there would be an extra $150 charge. To only bring this up after the event is unacceptable. That kind of information should be clearly communicated at the time the request is made so customers can make an informed decision. What made matters worse was receiving a final email stating that my deposit would be kept because of those additional guests. That is completely unprofessional. I paid $2,772.20 for a pizza-making class for 17 kids and 16 adults, and in reality, only 15 kids and 15 adults attended--and only about 8 adults even participated in making pizza. There were no additional materials or accommodations that would justify keeping the deposit. While the event itself was a success, the lack of transparency and the decision to keep the deposit left a very bad impression. Customers should not have to deal with surprise charges after the fact. read more

While I have not reviewed all of my Hudson Table experiences, I felt like it was time to submit some updated feedback based on my most recent visit. My friends and I enjoyed a delightful 5 course meal on their rooftop, with views of the Manhattan skyline, illuminated by the late summer moon. As the sun set, it definitely got a bit breezy at our altitude, but we were prepared, thanks to the extremely detailed, preparatory email we received in advance from the staff. The chef and servers that evening were really on top of things, with food spaced at the precise cadence and our every need met with efficiency. The food was served family-style with more than enough for everyone. In fact, our table of 4 people received 2 plates of each course, ensuring that we all had our fill. There was no particular theme to this menu, but it mainly centered around seafood. First, there was the Escarole Salad with endive, red onion, pickled cranberries, and a chardonnay-creme fraiche dressing. While the salad was heavily covered in the creamy dressing, it was so delicious that we simply did not care; give us all of the dressing! We then received a large bowl of Mussels in a white wine broth that had been infused with fennel and saffron. It was served with a sliced, toasted baguette that had been covered with some sort of zesty spread and more saffron. I thought the mussels were a bit briny, but I loved everything about the light sauce in which they were sitting. The third course was by far my favorite; it was a Poblano Pepper Risotto that also included grilled corn, cherry tomatoes, and Parmesan crisps. Those cheesy crackers perfectly complemented the pepper notes and also added a contrasting texture. The main course was Pan-Seared Salmon over garlic mashed potatoes, brussels sprouts, and a preserved lemon beurre blanc. I thought the filet was a bit fishy, but the mashed potatoes, which I was not normally a fan of, were creamy and delicious. The meal was topped off with slices of Caramelized Banana Cake, sitting in a schmear of rich, Nutella ganache. The cake reminded me of a bread pudding, though I felt it could have used more banana flavor. Hudson Table is always BYOB, which we took advantage of that night, bringing a mix of hard seltzers, wine, and more. In fact, Wine Dad's was a local liquor store one block away, which was a huge help in fulfilling our needs. We stopped there on our way, but they also would have delivered our order directly to the rooftop! The music for the evening was a solo, acoustic set from the talented Mike Murphy, who kept us all engaged with the complete experience and not just our separate table conversations; it really made the evening an event, rather than a random meal. Hudson Table's dinners are, without question, always a great experience. In fact, though they always had a heavy calendar in the summer months, they used to offer more tasting menu dinners throughout the year in their indoor spaces. Unfortunately, those seem to have slowed down, but I am hoping they return! read more

Always an amazing experience from start to end. My fiancé and I booked a class for my birthday and had the best time. The chef was phenomenal! Her approach to cooking and the individuals in class was perfect. She made us all feel comfortable and had us laughing the entire night. The menu for the evening was homemade pasta, bread, salad and donut with Nutella. It was out of this world! Delicious. She even surprised me with a birthday candle and sang happy birthday to me. It was a great surprise. Will certainly be back again! read more

I surprised my man with tickets to the Chef Competition. The experience exceeded my expectations. Two talented chefs competed in a timed challenge to showcase their skills & creativity using a basket of mystery ingredients. Think of it as a Chopped & Top Chef crossover episode. 2 chefs, 3 courses - that's SIX plates of food! It was a bit pricey & hard to book (you have to quite literally have reminders & notifications for yourself to book in time) but completely worth it. It's also BYOB! We brought a few white claws & it was perfect to sip on. The chefs were personable & friendly & enjoyed talking with us while they were cooking. I reminded one of the chefs that he forgot to add an ingredient lol Parking is eh, we parked around the corner & across the street in a supermarket underground lot. Overall 9.5/10 I can't wait to come back. read more

I have always wanted to come here but could never justify the price. My sister wanted to go and I immediately said yes. I can now say it is worth the price. But then again, I think knowledge is power, so your miles may vary if you don't think education is worth it's weight in gold. Like knowing how to hold a knife correctly when chopping things and not mixing your finger tips into the stir fry. For example. We did a Mexican meatless Monday and rolled up with a party of four. If we hadn't, we would have had to socialize with strangers, which I am sure would have been fine, but I do suggest coming here with a party of 4. Either way, we were put in pairs to carry out half the dishes on the menu each and it was super fun. There was so much food to take home also. And again, with a party of 4 it was easy to split that up graciously. I'm sure breaking bread with strangers if you don't come with a party of 4 is less awkward than I am making it out to be. I just like writing "party fo 4" a lot. read more

I held my 40th Birthday dinner here and was very disappointed with how things went. I wish I went with a different venue. I booked this venue on 2/6/22 for a 7/30/22 event. I spent over $10,000 on decor, my cakes, the venue and wine and beer. I was expecting to provide a unique experience to my guests. At 1pm on the day of my event, I was emailed and told that the AC was not working and the area was "quite warm". They said they would provide fans and place tables and chairs on their patio at no extra charge. (..as if I asked for this) It was also stated that the owner has graciously gifted me champagne. At 1pm, I had all the alcohol that I needed for my event. I didn't want champagne. It was almost 90 degrees outside. Upon arrival, it wasn't quite warm. It was extremely hot and uncomfortable. They only had 2 fans blowing in a literal kitchen. They also don't have a patio. They put 2 tables and about 8 chairs outside in the alley next to their building. An alley that had random people walking by the tables with dogs and people on scooters. This was not the experience that I paid all this money for. I purchased two cakes for my event. On both cakes the bakery placed a label that said that they should be eaten at room temperature. It was so hot, that the cakes couldn't be left out. They were served cold and weren't eaten the way they should have been served. One cake was supposed to be on display the entire time.I wasted money paying for a display stand for it. It couldn't stay out due to the temperature. My menu was finalized on 7/24/22 and included sorbet, fruit, tea and coffee for my guests. My guests did not receive any sorbet, fruit, tea or coffee. My event designer ordered flowers, candles, plates, and cutlery for 35 guest to sit at 5 tables. When the florist arrived to set up, I was informed that it was only 4 tables arranged in the room to be decorated. This forced my guest to sit closer together. I wasted money purchasing items for 5 tables. Due to the heat, my designer did not place as many candles out that she ordered to minimize extra heat. More money that I wasted due to the venue's lack of air. I couldn't enjoy the food as much as I wanted to. It was way too hot. I basically drank most of the night to try to keep cool. The day after my event the owner sent an email stating that he's refunding $300 for the inconvenience of the temperature. This is pretty insulting. I responded with a list of issues and it's been over 48 hours and I haven't received a response. I definitely won't ever consider spending my money here again. Editing to add: Allen was able to reply to this review in 10 minutes but did not have the professional courtesy to respond to an email. I'll add a screenshot of the temperature since he lied and said it was 75 degrees. I had one vegan guest. He didn't get sorbet. He got non dairy ice cream. I'll add a screenshot to show that all guest were supposed to have it. I'll also add a screenshot to show where the staff said it was a patio. And it was not a patio. It's a literal alleyway for the public. The balloon arch did not take up 15% of the space of the room. Your math isn't mathing. I'll upload a pic of the beautiful arch. A 5th table would not have fit there. My event planner met with you and worked with your staff when creating the floor plan. Your staff knew we planned for 35. How would 35 people fit at 4 tables that can fit 8 people max? So many lies in your response. This team he says was there 2 and a half hours prior did not exist. Everyone was scheduled to arrive between 4:30 and 5:30 and If this was an issue then you would have stated that in the email you sent. Set up wasn't an issue because I paid extra for extra time for the vendors to set up. You're only mentioning anything now because of this review. I'll upload a screenshot of the email you sent me after the event. I stated that 300 wasn't sufficient because you didn't do enough to make sure my guests were comfortable. I paid for an indoor dinner. Not for my guests to sit in an alleyway. You provided 2 fans. 2 fans does nothing for 35 guests. There were other issues besides the AC that were in your control. You did not do enough. You could have made sure there were more fans or a portable AC unit could have been purchased. You were aware of this issue at 1pm. The event started at 7pm. Plenty of time to take action. You neglected to do the right thing. He stated the event was 2700. That was incorrect. I paid a deposit of $600 in February and $2824 in July which included the mandatory tip. Screenshots are attached to show another lie from Allen. Beware of the extreme lack of professionalism of the owner of this business. He doesn't care that the experience was ruined. Ok read more

My husband and I celebrated our anniversary at Hudson Table on Friday night with a 7 course Chef's Table Mar y Tierra menu cooked by Christina Miros. The modern-Mexican inspired menu was prepared perfectly, and we had a great evening! The pacing of the courses was great; we ended up being there for almost 3 hours, and it was fun to hear about the chef's inspirations for the menu as we dined. Proof of vaccine is required to attend (yes!!), and they are still observing socially distancing - there were 4 couples at the counter and 4 additional tables within the room. They are BYOB, so plan your drinks accordingly. It looked like one of the other groups did delivery from Wine Dad's which is just around the corner. One thing to note - it was FREEZING inside; not sure if this was a one-off or not, but maybe bring a sweater just in case! read more

I have been coming to this place for years. Was here not too long ago for an event our family had. It has definitely fallen off since Covid. The food isn't as good as it use to be. Most of their food comes from ShopRite... I saw an employee using products from there. Makes you wonder what exactly people are spending all this money on. I would understand if they were getting it from farm or vendors. But ShopRite.. and the money they charge? I would be embarrassed giving people Shoprite products. You're better going somewhere where the management and/or owners care about the quality. This place isn't worth anymore. read more

I've been wanting to try a class here and finally got in. I took the seafood class and made a few seafood dishes. I was impressed by the amount of dishes we made. We made swordfish, filet of sole, mussels, and shrimp pasta. I learned a lot about cooking these dishes. It was a BYOB class so wine and cooking always helps. The food was pretty good. It's definitely a good bonding place for people to meet over cooking and conversation since you are working in groups of four. I'll definitely be back. The only issue we had was feeling like our group wasn't getting enough assistance from the chef. We had to start one of our dishes over because it was ruined by the time he got over. The other staff there weren't that helpful they were cleaning up more so than helping. We had a lot of food so we sat down to eat pretty late. It's still a good time though. I hope one day Hudson Table does a singles night for cooking because you can't book if you don't have a pair which is unfortunate. read more

SO much fun!! We came here for a bachelorette party, and Sam was our chef for the night. We learned so much and had a great time.

Love the classes here! My boyfriend and I have done two - one cooking class and one cooking competition. I don't have enough good things to say about it. It's such a beautiful and open space. The chefs are so incredibly talented, it's amazing to watch and be a part of. The cooking class was very hands on, I flambed something for the very first time and felt much safer doing so in their kitchen than I would in mine! We have made the dessert from this class multiple times (caramelized banana and chocolate croissant bread pudding, DROOL) and it is ALWAYs a hit. The cooking competition was so awesome. Two chefs go head to head and make a three course dinner with a basket of mystery ingredients that they don't find out until ~2 hours before the competition begins. You can taste test as they're cooking and ask them questions while you watch them compete. Truly, an awesome experience. read more

School would like you enjoy an eating experience on top of a roof with unusual directions leading to the rear of the building. Experience includes a fixed price menu for the evening.

I've never taken the time to write reviews, but I felt compelled to this time, as the meal was just perfect. My wife and I went to Hudson Table for the 7 Course Plant Based Chef's Table by David Maihle, and I can't recommend it enough. We've tried plant-based / vegan cuisine all over the world, and nothing compares to the meal we had Sunday night - it was truly the best meal of our lives. David was an excellent host, and while preparing the meal, took the time to explain each dish in detail which made it that much better of an experience. The flavors were incredibly diverse, and had a richness that you rarely have in vegan food - with a wide range of tastes ranging from mushrooms he picked himself paired with thinly sliced stone fruit, to perfectly glazed eggplant with BBQ tofu spread. You could taste just how much care went into matching and preparing the dishes. We couldn't ask for a more enjoyable dining experience. We really hope to be back soon for more plant-based cooking classes or Chef's table in the future. And we'll definitely be looking to join David's next cooking experience! read more

I'm still on a high (and still full) from a fantastic experience at Hudson Table last night. Hudson Table is the only adult cooking school in the Hoboken + JC area... at least that I know of. I've thought about coming for years, but to be honest have always been a bit skeptical. Mainly because a cooking class will run you $200 for a couple. I guess I've always just thought that if I was spending 200$ on dinner that I wouldn't have to make it myself. My experience at Hudson Table definitely proved me wrong. Sure, this isn't the activity for the every day. But for a special occasion it's a really cool and different experience and while it's a little pricey I totally think it's worth it. The class is 3 hours long. I liked how intimate it was -- there are only 16 people max in each class. There are 3 instructors so it's never hard to find help if you need it. Class is BYOB so don't forget some wine or beer! We started off with a small snack and an ice breaker. After that we learned some chopping techniques from Chef Eric. Then it was off to stations for some cooking. In my opinion the class has the perfect amount of hands on cooking. Ingredients are portioned out perfectly for you which alleviates alot of time and guesswork. There are four cooks per station and you can split up what you cook. Our class had four dishes, so each duo prepared two. While you cook the three chefs will circulate around the room to help you out and make sure that everything is going smoothly. There are a ton of different classes and you can cook anything from Indian cuisine to tapas to homemade pasta. There is even an imitation fast food class. The class that I took was french surf and turf -- we cooked steak and scallops in a champagne shallot sauce, super cheesy herbed mashed potatoes and a tart with caramelized onions and bacon. The meal ended with creme brulee! Everything had a ton of butter, but that's really just the way it is when you eat a decadent French meal. Only difference is I usually don't prepare this meal myself, so I can pretend that there isn't a ton of butter involved. Overall this is something cool and different to do. It's a great chance to sharpen your chef skills, meet some new people and prepare and enjoy a delicious meal that you otherwise may have never known how to cook. read more

What a fun experience!! The chef Corey was amazing! He made the class so interactive and answered any questions we had. They don't rush you through the process and really explain everything thoroughly! You can enjoy the cooking classes whether you're a beginner or an expert. The food was also incredible! The tables are set up for 4 so the food is shared. Really great date or double date idea! Another plus is that it is byob. Will definitely be coming back! read more

I cannot recommend Hudson Table enough! I've been to 3 cooking classes and all of them far exceeded expectations. I will continue going again and again. The most recent class my friends and I went to was Dim Sum with Erin Mallare. She was one of the most kind chefs and truly knew her stuff! She gave a beautiful demonstration of how to cut, chop all of our food and was an excellent support throughout the class. Our group of four had our own table, and we made the below menu. The food was absolutely fantastic! One of our friends is a vegetarian and the staff showed us how to adjust some of the items to accommodate. They truly went above and beyond. I highly recommend going to a cooking class at Hudson Table! It's BYOB and SO much fun (and also the perfect gift for friends/family).
