    "Hudson Social is an American bistro located inside the historic Dobbs Ferry train station house…read moreoverlooking the waterfront. Housed in a revitalized historic train station directly next to the Metro-North tracks and Waterfront Park." I must say there is something about train stations and their nearby eateries. Whenever, my friends and I travel to the Hudson Valley, from Tarrytown, to Cold Spring to Poughkeepsie, there are always restaurants that jut out from the train stations. I must say, the food is awesome. Today, my friend Rochelle and I were in a New York Stare of Mind, and followed Billy Joel's instructions but took the Metro North vs a Greyhound bus to Dobbs Ferry. We took in the sun and the Hudson River before dining at Hudson Social. A cool eatery offering a bit of upscale pub food. The menu offers burgers, salads, tacos and a brunch menu until 3pm on weekends. We were in the mood for something light thus we ordered tacos: brisket for Rochelle, pulled pork for myself and a side of hand cut fries. Here's where a bit of a disconnect arose: Rochelle did not want pico de gallo but the server should have instructed her to add a different ingredient to prevent dryness. The brisket was cooked perfectly with a slight char mixed with guacamole but could have used a kick and cilantro. The soft taco was flavorless. My pulled pork taco was delicious: Mango salsa with pineapple chunks, pork was also slightly roasted and guacamole gave it a delicious flavor. I also thought cilantro should have been added. The hand cut fries were good not great, but portion was generous. There was live music: a flutist who played with prerecorded music. There is a bar as well to purchase drinks. Dining al fresco is a must; the view of the Hudson River is wonderful. Must say, the server was not friendly and checked on us mid way through meal. Some folks do like to get away.. and a trip to Dobbs Ferry for a beautiful lunch on the Hudson, is well worth it.

    We had a great happy hour here. We ordered the tacos, the kale Caesar salad, and some guac and…read morechips. Cocktails are fabulous! We got a rum punch and. A passionfruit Mojito, which was excellent. Bartender was really great And we will be back

    Decided to come for an early birthday lunch out of all the waterfront restaurants Yonkers has…read moreavailable. I had heard a lot of great things so had to come and try it. There is a lot of parking available which was great. Upon arriving I noticed right away the outdoor seating was in full swing and I loved how close to the water it was but we opted for indoor seating this time around. I will say we had looked at previous reviews beforehand and had made our choices but, upon checking the menu, it had changed so that was a let down. For appetizers we started with the edamame, ricotta crostini and the soup of the day which was chickpea and escarole. It was a bit strange seeing edamame on their menu but it was deliciously seasoned with the furikake and garlic oil. The ricotta crostini was lackluster. I was expecting a bit of sweetness from the grapes but they just seemed watery once you bit into them. The soup was also just ok a bit under-seasoned. For our entrees we got the chicken Milanese, fried chicken Cesar sandwich, the gnocchi pasta with a side of meatballs and the turkey c.b.a. The chicken Milanese had a wonder salad atop the chicken with all the fixings and the feta cheese added for a nice creamy salty bite. The fried chicken Cesar sandwich was just that. A fried chicken cutlet and Cesar salad stuffed into a brioche bun served with thin cut fries. Can never go wrong with a Cesar salad. The pasta was definitely the star of this meal. The soft pillows of the gnocchi pasta paired with the robust tomato sauce was delicious and with the added meatballs added for a hearty meal. The Turkey C.B.A was such a let down. It literally looked like those sandwiches that come in plastic but just plated. For such a nice restaurant that dish definitely gotta go. For dessert we got the Key Lime Pie and the Profiteroles without chocolate. (There was an allergy at the table). The key lime was perfectly tart and the graham crust gave this nutty goodness that was just delicious. The profiteroles were also so yummy with the crunchy puff pastry, creamy ice cream and then the cherries and candied almonds made for a perfect dessert. While I can appreciate a restaurant changing up their menu often, there are some dishes that should stay put!

It's vibey with a big space that allows for weddings / bdays / dinner parties, etc. They offer free valet parking as parking in Piermont can be hard to find. I really wanted to enjoy Otto's Full Service but unfortunately did not. We came for Sunday brunch and were seated next to the piano. At times, it was difficult to conversationally but cool at the same time. I will add that the brunch menu felt very random - you go from fried Cajun oysters to a fried chicken sandwich or a beef gyro. The food was good - must try the fried Cajun oysters! The buttermilk pancakes were tasty as well. They were bananas foster so it was like eating dessert. The service was not as good. Our server seemed to avoid us as much as possible, it was clear she didn't want to be there. We even heard her tell the hostess that she didn't want anyone else to be seated in her section and it wasn't that busy. She never came back to ask us if we wanted more drinks. The manager, Bill, walked the room and made his way around to say hello and check in with tables. He was very welcoming and nice - wish she would take a cue from him.

The creamed spinich was extremely salty. The Memphis ribs which I asked for without the sauce did not have any seasoning whatsoever. Our server was great but there was too few servers for the restaurant therefore the service was spotty.
