    Panzanella salad.
    Molly M.

    This was probably the best meal I've had in the DFW area in terms of food + ambiance + service all taken into consideration. I took my husband here for our 7th wedding anniversary. I was surprised I got us in because I didn't call until 2 days before but the owner was very kind and accommodating. The place is very small and only has 5 tables. We were the third table to arrive but the place had filled by the time we were finishing. One thing I love about this place is that they have a no tipping policy. That means the prices are a little higher, but you truly do get what you pay for. We were presented with a seasonal table d'hôte menu that offered a few options for each course. My first course might have been my favorite: a whole sardine served with greens and a spicy remoulade and cucumber tomato salad. The sardine was crispy with just the right salt level and that salad was magic. The remoulade really was spicy, too, but everything was well-balanced. For the salad course I ordered a hearts of palm salad while my husband got a panzanella. Both were delicious. I hate overdressed salads so I was so happy to see how light and carefully dressed my salad course was. For the main courses they had New Zealand venison in two ways (both were surf and turf dishes) on the menu and we decided to give it a try. My husband got loin medallions over gnocchi with shrimp and I got a tenderloin that was served with langoustines and a Gorgonzola sauce. Okay, so I wasn't sure about combining seafood with Gorgonzola, and I wasn't sure about pairing venison with seafood, but I was happy to be proven incorrect. The sauce was, indeed, a little rich and strong so I didn't use all of it but it was still a really nice pairing with the venison. The venison, in addition, was perfectly cooked. I added a cross section picture so you can see just how perfect. The vegetables that accompanied our meal were vibrant and seasonal and delicious. My only regret is I couldn't quite finish everything because I was too full. For drinks we shared a bottle of wine (the selection is excellent, by the way) and instead of doing a dessert we opted for a glass of 40-year-old tawny port. It was delicious. After dinner service, the owner, who cooks everything himself with only one sous chef in the kitchen, came and talked with us for a good 15 minutes and he could not have been more delightful. In addition, our server was attentive and polite without ever hovering. The best part was because they only take 5 reservations a night, we never felt rushed because the staff said no one else was coming in so we could be there as long as we wanted. Our reservation was at 6:30 and we were there for over 2 hours enjoying ourselves. All-in-all, I would highly recommend this place to anyone

    This was such a great experience. Wonderful food and great atmosphere. I loved the no tipping and pre fixe menu (so that we didn't go above our budget). Very reasonable prices for such amazing food.

    First of many visits to come. The food was amazing and the service was phenomenal. Nice intimate environment. The chef is very personable with each guest.

    We have been going to Gorji's for many years and is absolutely one of our favorite restaurants. His attention to detail combined with his immense knowledge of how to use different flavors is unmatched! We have our anniversary dinner here every year and will continue to for years to come.

From the moment we arrived, the restaurant had a lively yet welcoming vibe that made it easy to settle in and enjoy the experience. The food was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented, and you can tell they pay attention to the details.

The service was friendly and attentive throughout our visit, and everything arrived promptly. It's easy to see why Hudson House has become such a popular local favorite. I'll definitely be back to explore more of the menu. If you've been to Hudson House, what's your must order dish or drink? I'm always looking for recommendations for my next visit!

We got the following dishes: -Dynamite shrimp- decent -comes with a little salad -Beverly salad- my sister enjoyed it but the onion crispies were not very crispy. -Tuna & ginger salad was very refreshing and I enjoyed it. The mangos were ripe which I've been to places where they are not. The tomatoes had a nice seasoning on it and the combination just works. -Fish tacos- my aunt didn't care for. It actually looked more like a burrito wrapped up and the fish was a bit on the salty side. -Parmasean truffle fries were crispy and tasty! We finished off with the key lime pie. We were split on it. It wasn't my favorite. I didn't think it was quite limey enough. The whipped cream had fresh lime zest which was nice. Overall, I'm glad we got to try it. Service was good and plenty of parking!

Our waiter ( guy with braids) was extremely helpful, friendly, and informative. ) I wanted a kir royale ( they couldn't make because they didn't have chambord). However, he and manager came to the table to offer options. I tried a French 76. We ordered calamari which was light, crisp, and fresh. It was delicious and prepared perfectly. I ordered the stuffed flounder ( substituted red fish for flounder) with the Ponchatrain sauce ( shrimp and crabmeat in creamy sauce) which was delicious. I kept the potatoes with peppers ( prepared beautifully ) however, I will try another potato dish that I don't think will compete or overpower the fish. The fish was hot, flaky, light and delicious. They also serve a dish of garlicky, buttery dish of bread and hush puppies as an appetizer.Loved the bread dish. The service, food, ambience are well worth the drive. I can't wait to go back to try other dishes that they offer. We were too full to order dessert. Maybe I'll get one on my next visit.

I never like when places do that to crawfish because it doesn't actually add any flavor. Other complaint was didn't like how the sausage was cut just seemed weird. Service was friendly and quick though and good drink specials. Will come back to try other food but won't be at the top of my list for crawfish next year.

The lobster tail was a bit tough and overcooked, which is a waste. Mussels were good too. Garlic noodles were not our favorite. Corn and potatoes are good, but they're a bit stingy about it only giving you one of each. When your seafood boil is $70+, you should get more than one of each.

Unfortunately, the service was questionable. Our server had difficulty communicating in English, which led to a costly misunderstanding. When we ordered crab, she never asked what type of crab we wanted and instead assumed king crab, which is significantly more expensive than other options. As a result, our bill was much higher than expected. To make matters worse, a 20% gratuity was automatically added to the bill without it being mentioned to us beforehand. While restaurants may choose to add gratuity in certain situations, customers should be clearly informed so there are no surprises. My advice: enjoy the food, but be very specific when ordering. Confirm exactly what type of crab you're getting, verify the pricing, and check your bill carefully. Also remember that gratuity should be clearly communicated and not assumed. Better communication would have made this a much better overall experience.I'd rate it 2.5 out of 5 stars. Great food, but the service and communication issues took away from the experience.
