    Brussel Sprouts
    Anthony M.

    Let me start off by saying Whoa, Whoa, and Whoa!!! This place was fantastic! Found them on Yelp while AirBnb'ing in the area. The meal was spectacular. The wings were delectable, my ramen was as good as Ippudo in NYC, and the bao was so flavorful. I definitely recommend this place. Bring your appetite.

    Wow! My husband and I are so happy we found Hudson Food Studio!!! What a lovely restaurant inside and out. We were seated outdoors due to COVID and it was a beautiful little patio with perfect lighting. Our waitress was very sweet and was extremely attentive and helpful when we asked her about the menu. We thoroughly enjoyed everything we ordered and will definitely go back when we visit Hudson again! The Bao Buns were the best we have ever eaten!

    Here I am, to give Hudson Food Studio yet another five star review! We are huge fans of this restaurant, and often make the lengthy drive up from Westchester just to dine here. However, we hadn't given the Food Studio a visit since the summer started, and I've had my eye on a meal out in the courtyard ever since I discovered they had one back in the winter! We had an absolutely delightful meal here dining al fresco under the "stars" (millennial friendly twinkle lights) on a gorgeous July evening. When we arrived around 8:30 PM, we were seated promptly at the cutest little table for two EVER, nestled in a nook under a large tree. I was already in love! Our server, Vanessa, was fantastic, and offered great recommendations for our food and beverage orders. I ended up veering off the beaten path of my usual sticky soy glazed chicken (not on the summer menu - sad trombone!), and opted for the Braised Chinese Eggplant, Pork, and Tofu, and my boyfriend stuck with his usual Chicken Wings. I also got a Thai Iced Tea, which was probably my favorite part of the meal. Since I've been eating healthier, I've had to give up Thai Iced Tea, since it's usually packed with sugar and heavy cream. Not so at Hudson Food Studio! It's all the flavors of Thai Iced Tea for zero calories! I was impressed and ordered seconds! The Braised Chinese Eggplant dish was fabulous, and a very filling portion. Roasted eggplant, tender pork, and soft tofu are sautéed in a flavorful mirin-soy sauce, and served atop fluffy jasmine rice to sop up all that salty goodness! I think I have a new favorite menu item! The Chicken Wings were awesome as always, drizzled with the signature caramelized soy sauce that we've come to know and love after a few previous visits here. Unfortunately, we didn't save room for dessert, but in the time since we've been gone, Hudson Food Studio has partnered with the new bakery next door, Nine Cakes, to provide locally made cakes and other desserts for the menu. The Coconut Lime cake tempted me, but I'll have to wait for our next visit! If you have the opportunity to dine here before they close the courtyard garden down for the season, DO IT! It's a true hidden gem and a memorable dining experience you won't soon forget!

    I want to say how wonderful the service was last night and thank you to Jonathan, our server. We had some really good food, and some that I probably wouldn't pick again. I'm tricky because I'm gluten free and dairy free, and some other things. And he handled all of it with a smile, a "no problem" and quick fixes. And the salad dressing for the frisee salad should be bottled and sold. SO GOOD.

    I thought this place was worth going to if you like Vietnam/Thai food and happen to be in Hudson. The ambiance is all things hipster, casual and intimate all at the same time. The art and lighting fixtures were really cool. The service is top notch. From the maitre'd to each and every waiter, you could tell they took their jobs seriously, and even made conversations with the clientele. As for the food, there's a limited amount of vegetarian options, although they could swap tofu for anything pretty much. Would recommend if you like pork, chicken, shrimp etc. We got the Brussels sprouts, which came with some sort of sauce and "bird chili" peppers in the middle which were super spicy. We liked this, and especially the fried shallots that topped it. The Eggplant mint tofu dish was - very minty - not sure I've ever had stir fried mint before but seemed this dish wasn't what I thought it would be Also got the Chicken Rice noodles - seemed overpowered by fish sauce, but had good ginger notes and the shaved carrot was nice. Sauce had lots of vinegar or other acid in it, but was fresh and tasted great after the initial bite. The stir fry wasn't a pad Thai but had good quality basil and big bold flavors. Would have liked some textural differences, ie crushed peanut. We listened to some amazing music here. It was both worldly, fun and classic We paid $57 before tax for two mains, a side and a beer. Not a bad deal.

    Food studio has some amazing stand out dishes, such as the spicy chicken rice noodles, greens & rice, stir-fried chanterelle mushrooms, and warm sesame noodles. Their appetizers are also fantastic, especially the grapefruit & pea shoot salad, smoky cauliflower, and roasted brussel sprouts with aioli. Yummm!!! I've eaten at Food Studio in Hudson for many years and I am so happy to see they now have a location in Athens too! They have a great staff and the restaurant is reasonably priced.

    That is some depressing food.

    I haven't used Yelp in years but this place was such a colossal disappointment I started this account. What a shame. Such potential. An great space and a nice concept- but ultimately it's a lackluster effort from recipe concepts to execution. Please stop calling this Vietnamese or Southeast Asian. It's a joke. And it's old. There is always something missing from every single dish, not just an ingredient but a flavor profile where you bite into it, and you just say "meh" - so your server offers you to try and add some of the fish sauce they offer, some soy, some Rooster sauce...and still. Nothing. And it's because at the base it just feels uninspired, lazy, and if we're going to be honest it's as if someone spent a short time in Southeast Asia and decided they could easily recreate centuries of a culture's cuisine by traveling a bit and reading books. They've had about a decade to get this right and it still isn't. They now have an impressive space in which they could've risen to the occasion and they haven't - the food is even worse. I really wish they'd taken more time on developing the recipes than the space. p.s. To give the place another shot I recently ordered ribs for takeout- when I got home the slop that was inside that container looked like they forgot half of it and the half that was still there looked like it was gnawed on! GROSS.

    Food was pretty good. Chicken was over cooked. Cash only which is a lot to ask for a $70 takeout. Would probably eat here again

    Was driving past Albany to go upstairs and came across Van's. We were in a rush so we got take out…read more Got the fried spring roll and it was delicious! Highly recommend it. If a viet restaurants spring rolls are good, that means their food is obviously good as well! The skin was crispy and more doughy so I really like it! My partner got the grilled beef slices over rice and he really enjoyed it as well. He usually doesn't like Vietnamese food but he gave this a thumbs up! Van's also very generous with the portion! I got the Bun Bo Hue. I like how they wrapped the beef separately when they gave the takeout. The noodles were the perfect thicc noodles that I like. The soup was good however it's not as spicy as other BBH's are. But still good!

They filled our water glasses without asking and checked in on us to ensure a good experience. They have a wine menu too. It was so hard to choose! We started with two apps to share-summer rolls and spring rolls. They come with pickled veggies and dipping sauces. The summer rolls were fresh and fat! The spring rolls had a little different coating but they were good and crunchy. I had the grilled chicken with crushed peanuts and vermicelli. The chicken was a nice big charbroiled chicken breast perfectly cooked! The presentation was so colorful! Enough for a few meals. They do have a fruit fly problem. That was a bit annoying. Other than that it was a great experience and a good meal! Apps, drinks and meals for three was under $140.

    The food was excellent - far exceeded our expectations. It was flavorful and fresh…read more However our server's behavior is bringing the establishment down. He was curt and rude to us and we even heard him speaking rudely to other staff (possibly the chef). He even suggested that another party go elsewhere for dessert, because he didn't think what they offer is good (!)... When he came to our table to take our order he just stood there and said okay - not what can I get for you, or anything remotely polite. He also seemed to be in a hurry the entire time, despite it not being busy. It was easy to hear him questioning other staff in the back about their scheduling for the rest of the day, as if he was too important to be there. This restaurant would be nothing without the women preparing the food, and they should be respected by everyone working there.

    I went on Columbus Day. What a joke. I don't normally leave…read morebad reviews, but this experience was disappointing enough that I felt it was necessary. When we arrived, there was only one person a white man working -- hosting, serving, and handling everything. It took a long time just to get seated, and even longer to place our order. I had the Khao Soi Gai. When the food finally came, my chicken was cold and the noodles were hard and undercooked. I asked for it to be fixed, and while the dish came back warmer, the noodles were still hard. The server says i'm not mad at you i'm mad at the people who work in the back. He asked have you had these type of noodles before? Of course I did but not at this restaurant . His excuse was egg noodles tend to be firmer . At that point, I gave up on the meal. The server did remove it from the bill. Despite everything, when I paid, the server made a smart remark that came off as rude and unprofessional, the server made a sarcastic remark about the tip -- as if 20% wasn't enough. If I knew he was going to get snarky about it, I would've left zero tip ! I won't be coming back !
