Came here the day before a wedding at the Grand View, not knowing that the restaurant is the…read morerestaurant attached to the venue and that would cater the restaurant. After dining at Shadows on the Hudson, we were elated because we had a beautiful dining experience and were ready for the next day. Came here for dinner on a Friday night and the place was lively and busy. I loved how there were different vibes throughout the restaurant. There was the main dining room that over looked the water, where we dined, a more chill lounge type area as well as a private room - all stunning in their own right. Our server was Nico and he was great - giving us his honest recommendations - from my mocktail to my friends choice of port wine. I had the ginger mule mocktail which was 10/10. To eat, I opened for the classic Caesar salad with crispy chicken which was soooo good and the portion was absolutely massive. A bunch of my friends got the filet in addition to the salmon. We all loved our meals and were the last ones in the place - as the place closed relatively early for a Friday, at 9. All in all, we had a beautiful experience - I only wished it was day time for a view of the bridge - but we were lucky enough to see it next day for the wedding next door. Thanks to Shadows on the Hudson for an amazing dinner!

Oh WOW this place is beautiful. We came for lunch on a post-snowstorm Tuesday afternoon. After…read morewalking in, we were greeted by the host and the manager - both incredibly nice and helpful. Once we were seated at the bar (always our preference), I noticed that both the bar and dining areas are beautifully appointed. The bar's lounge area was very welcoming and the chairs looked like we could stay there for hours. We just might when we come back!! Our bartender greeted us with a smile and menus - from there, we ordered a Juice Bomb (IPA), and the Martini Rinaldi (vodka-gin martini). Let's just say I'm ruined for martinis forever and will ALWAYS want this martini. It's a perfect martini ... and I will fight anyone who tries to convince me otherwise. As far as food goes, we shared the Zucchini & Eggplant Chips. SO much food for just an appetizer (highly encourage sharing). Really flavorful chips, served with smooth tzatziki (nicely done!). Husband had the Bourbon Burger (lunch special). Properly cooked burger (med rare), juicy burger, good flavor, great ratio of burger to sauces/toppings, not overly messy but just right, and the fries were double-fried so they had that perfect crunch quality. I had the Crispy Chicken Sandwich (also a lunch special), and I have to say (again), the BEST chicken sandwich I've ever had. Beautifully crisped chicken, cabbage slaw, homemade pickles, chipotle mayo were perfectly flavored, seasoned, and balanced. It's like the perfect bite in an entire sandwich and doesn't leave your hands super messy. The sandwich is typically served with fries but I chose the house salad and it was a nice burst of freshness from a rich sandwich. That dressing is delish!! Overall... this was the kind of lunch that's WELL worth the 90 minute drive (because that's exactly what we did... haha). The Executive Chef (John Malone) is a talented individual and this place is a true Diamond on the Hudson. As a side note ... the real show-stopper is the views of the Hudson River. I couldn't get a proper picture - you'll just have to trust me. Can't wait to come back!!

Had an engagement party here the other night and everything went right. You wouldn't know from the…read moreoutside but Mahoneys has the perfect private back rooms. After walking through the busy bar you enter a spacious private room that includes a bar and personal music system. Pat, the event coordinator, was amazing every step of the way, very helpful, knowledgeable and informative. The personal wait staff for the party was great, always around and ready. What I was most pleased with was the food. People always remember the food from the party and the food provided from Mahoneys and their kitchen staff was great. The penne vodka was flavorful and creamy and the chicken Marsala complimented it well. The party was around 60 people and we had plenty of food, people went up for 2nd and 3rd and we still had leftovers. And did I mention affordable?? Like I said before, amazing experience definitely recommend for anyone throwing a small party, between the food, service and space they knocked it out.

I love this place!…read more We came here for a comedy show on Saturday and decided to try some of their food. I went with the Shrimp cocktail and the shrimp used were just perfect! I am always scared when ordering shrimp cocktail due to the fact some establishments use crap grade shrimp, well not this place, they were spectacular. I believe many of the chefs I read graduated from the Culinary Institute of America which is located extremely close to this restaurant, and this could be part of the reason why their food game is on point. My girlfriend got the beef stew, and they gave ample portions of meat with delicious gravy and the mashed potatoes were nothing to sneeze at either. I got a couple Jack and Diet's and the upcharge for a double is not that bad, at the time of writing this I believe it is a four-dollar upcharge. Also got a merlot and it was fresh and delightful. If I lived closer to this place, I would be here all the time. There are several colleges near here, so I assume the vibe is great as well if you are looking to come and have a good time. The train station literally shares there parking lot so if you plan on partaking in a good time with drinks and spirits it would be a good idea to just train it over. As always people SYOY, and if you live even remotely close to Mahoney's, visit often for me! Cheers!!

Just saw this restaurant and wanted to check it out. Turns out to be a hookah lounge/gastropub…read more Loved the ambiance and setup/decorations. Food was fabulous. The chef is a soon to be CIA grad that is making the school proud. Chicken and waffles were done perfectly and the barbeque burger was seasoned in house. Would have preferred something besides celery with this, though, but the burger was really tasty. Definitely for the younger crowd, as is evident by their drink selection. But go for the food. And bring ear plugs.

Decided to check this place out for the first time last night. Walked in and in and first thoughts…read moreare "it's beautiful in here." There were people smoking hookah and just chillin. There are just a couple of things I would want the owner/management team to be mindful of. First, for a run and coke it's like $10.50 which price wise I think is a little high, but that's not what made me annoyed-the cup that my drink was handed to me in was the same cup I rinse my mouth out with at the dentists office. I've never seen such a small cup. Buffalo Wild Wings gives you a large glass for $8. So they definitely overcharge for the size of the drink. Second, I walked into the bathroom and there was a napkin floating in the toilet-ok, maybe someone dropped it accidentally. I sit down and all I smell is urine and come to find out, management must have decided that instead of going to the store quick and buying toilet paper, they'd put napkins in the women's bathroom and the women were using the napkins and throwing them in the garbage which was why the whole room smelled of urine. The toilet was clogged and almost overflowed. I told the guy who I assumed was the owner, and he said he knew and acted as if he didn't care. Probably because they were all high. Literally all they need to do is put a smaller trash can in that little bathroom, plunge the toilet so it works, ensure there's toilet paper and go to the dollar store to get some glassware for your bar. I get it's a new business, but spending $50 so you can have 50 glasses would create a better experience. If they can get it together, I'd consider going back.
