    BEST pork chops ever
    Doug S.

    My girlfriend took me to our favorite restaurant for my birthday and Valentine's Day combined and of course we never get disappointed there this time. I tried something I had never tried before which is their pork chops and I will go on record. It's the greatest pork chop dish that I've ever had in all my years of going to a restaurant. This restaurant keeps on outdoing itself to be the best restaurant in all of the Hudson Valley, and perhaps all of New York

    Did not disappoint! We came on a Friday night and it was busy, but not too loud or overwhelming. It's an intimate and beautifully decorated space. Our waitress was kind and attentive without being overbearing. Bread and prosciutto were delicious, and of course we had to get the cacio e pepe. Great food and great ambiance!

    Cacio et Pepe
    Susan K.

    ORIGIN: Chef Gaetano Arnone brings years of experience in both NYC and Italian kitchens, opening Via Cassia, the name of a major Tuscan thoroughfare, in early 2024 with his wife Meigan. LOCATION: The restaurant is located on the western side of Hudson's bustling Warren Street. CONCEPT: Via Cassia brings the authentic taste of Italy to the Hudson Valley. The is facilitated by the procurement and clever integration of a curated collection of Giusti vinegars and Calvin olive oils. SETTING: To enhance the sense that guests are in Italy, business partner Megan Arnone applied her interior design skills. Vintage artifacts of Italian cafes and kitchens, acquired during their years in Italy, adorn the dining room walls. SERVICE: Chef Arnone and wife Megan are very attentive to guests. During my visit Chef Arnone came out of the kitchen to interact with guests, and Meigan warmly greeted at the door. EXPERIENCE A favorite first course of Meigan, and many guests, is Chef Arnone's rendition of Cacio e Pepe. Each forkful of creamy, cheesy, kitchen-made Radiatori is dreamy! You'll also find desserts are elevated with the clever inclusion of the curated collection of imported Italian olive oils and balsamic vinegars. Extra virgin olive oil is drizzled on vanilla Gelato and syrupy balsamic vinegar glazes the strawberry sorbet. TIPS: The restaurant is open for lunch on Saturdays and Sundays, making it an ideal destination for a Hudson day trip.

    Had a great time tonight at Via Cassia! The pasta was delicious, especially the Gigli Verdi. I would also highly recommend the Black Tuscan Kale Salad. Service and ambiance were excellent as well. Made for a really nice meal with friends

    I visited at 5pm Friday night and sat at the bar. The restaurant has a neutral warm color palate , dim lighting and thoughtful artwork depicting Italian culture. The small lamps on top of the bar are a lovely color pop. My cacio e pepe was perfect. Each bite of pasta was creamy with just enough pepper and grated cheese. The foccacia bread was light with a wonderful crispy top and rosemary. The olive oil also delicious, bright with a lemon tang. The service was well paced and I was fully finished with my service in less than 30 minutes.

    Tonight (10-2-25) we had selected Via Cassia (214 Warren St.) in Hudson, NY for dinner. In a word, the entire meal was exquisite. My single sentence review: "Outstanding Italian (not Italian-American) cuisine, featuring locally sourced ingredients, in an elegant, yet comfortable setting, with excellent service (thank you Stephanie and Jessica) at competitive prices for this highly competitive dining area." We arrived slightly before our reservation time and were seated promptly by the friendly and engaging hostess. Within moments, one of our two servers for the evening--Stephanie--came to our table right away to greet us and ask about a drink selection. I ordered a glass of the Vermentino from Tuscany. My wife wasn't sure, so Stephanie brought her a sample. Nice touch. We both ended up with good pours of Vermentino which went well with the meal (though a Pinot Noir might have been a better choice for the quail dish I ordered as a main). Since we had caucused beforehand about how we would approach this dinner, we knew what we wanted when Stephanie returned and placed our order. We started by splitting the Insalata Via Cassia--Radicchio, Castelfranco, toasted almonds, and a vinaigrette which blended garlic and Parmigiano Reggiano seamlessly into a luscious, flavorful, but light dressing. For our "Primi" course, we split the Bavette Cacio e Pepe featuring their home-made pasta. Indeed, all the pasta at Via Cassia are made in house (except for the gluten-free pasta which they serve for special orders). Then for our "Secondi", my wife ordered the Porchetta Tonnato with baby fennel, fried capers, and a light tuna sauce (i.e., the Tonnato). Even though this was technically an appetizer, it was more than enough to satiate her appetite. I ordered the Grilled Quail "Fra Diavolo" with lemon yogurt and roasted corn. One of the many things we really liked about our dining experience is how well Stephanie, Jessica, and Chef Guy (who is also the co-owner) paced the meal. At no time did we feel rushed to finish a course and ample time for digestion and conversation was provided between courses. It allowed us to fully savor each and every course. All the dishes we enjoyed were outstanding. The salad was so fresh with just the right balance of bitterness from the greens complemented by the richness of the dressing. The Bavette pasta was outstanding, perfectly cooked so there was still some "tooth" to it and the cheese and fresh black pepper sauce helped to accentuate the pasta rather than overwhelm it. The Porchetta was shaved extremely thin and yet was loaded with the flavors of rosemary and garlic, nicely punctuated by the fennel and fried capers. My quail--and there were two grilled quail on the plate--was slightly gamey, with a rich minerally taste to the meat which the lemon yogurt helped to soften. If I had one ever-so-slight criticism of this "Fra Diavolo" dish, it's that the sauce was not as spicy and hot as I was expecting. But that's just me. Even as a mild "Fra Diavolo," for me at least, it was delicious and an authentic treat to enjoy the flavor profile of grilled quail so masterfully prepared. Stephanie and Jessica checked in with us throughout the meal and it was Jessica who asked if we wanted dessert. My wife did as she had seen a special on the menu (which does not appear on the online menu) for a maple and mascarpone cheesecake with a maple sauce and finely crushed Amaretti cookie crumbs. Wow, I'll admit to taking a few sample bites (lol). This was other worldly since it was so light and not overly sweet despite the intensity of the maple flavoring. Kudos to the pastry chef whose name we regrettably forgot. This was one of those rare, flawless dining experiences which leave you totally satisfied, having experienced a range of different taste sensations, without leaving you feeling over-full. We spoke briefly to the chef/co-owner upon departing and thanked him profusely for a totally memorable dining experience. We look forward to dining here again.

Our table was in the same room as the bar but next to the fireplace. The bar doesn't have actual seating - they have tables in front of it which is nice and keeps the intimate, moody quiet vibe. It definitely had a romantic vibe with the fire, the lighting and lots of flowers throughout hanging from the ceiling. My only complaint is that there was a table with kids who were pretty noisy in the beginning. Not exactly what I was expecting for my Valentine's Day dinner but that's what I get for an early dinner! The food was excellent overall. We had a sense of what we wanted but then the server came over and told us the specials which threw us for a loop! I was dead set on getting pasta because Feast & Floret is known for their homemade pasta but we ended up ordering a few different plates: Quail Special - This was my first time ever having quail. The plate came out with 2 whole birds and to say I wasn't nervous would be a lie. It was a little salty (not sure if maybe it should be) but tender and delicious. It came with creamed Kale and nuts. Chilled Beets with Mint - Weird having with a hot meal but still so good. Butternut Squash Arancini -- A must try. You can taste a hint of butternut squash. It wasn't too overpowering. Affogato - The simplest dessert on the menu but worth it. Regarding drinks, try their Honey Old Fashioned. I'm not a whiskey drinker but always try my girlfriend's drink when we go out. Their Honey Old Fashioned was so good that it made me want to order one for myself! Feast & Floret also sells their own honey. Before we left to get to the show, I had asked about making our own bouquet. Grace, the florist, allowed us to pick what we liked and she arranged our bouquet
