    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.

There's a parking lot and some gorgeous decor inside. The restrooms are sparkling clean. The service is top-notch and the staff is happy to answer any questions about allergies.

I was a big fan of the salmon at Van's and almost went with that at Saigon but was convinced to try something different so I went with the pork. I'm not usually a pork fan but I've had Vietnamese pork before and enjoyed it. The pork here was perfection.

I enjoyed my usual small bowl of Shrimp and Pork Wonton Soup ($8.00) with tender dumplings, egg noodles, scallions, cilantro, and crispy shallots in a flavorful broth. Best ever. Upon my recommendation, we both ordered the Shaking Beef, or Bò Lúc Lắc, ($25.) which is a delicious Vietnamese dish of marbled cubes of beef tossed in all the good stuff: soy sauce, oyster sauce, fish sauce, a little sugar, butter, garlic, and black pepper. Everything is shaken around in the wok to get a nice all-around sear, hence the name...Shaking Beef! We enjoyed it with Brown Rice instead of Jasmine. Kudos: The cubed filet mignon was cooked perfectly; it was tender and pink in middle. Outstanding! Two reactions: --I did not like the lime dipping sauce because it was very salty (grains of Sea Salt intact)served in a small dish that was on the plate, so next time I will order another type of sauce. However, the beef was flavorful without it. --There were too many sliced red onions and not enough spring onions. Our two orders to go (Pho with Filet and Chicken Wings) were ready when we finished lunch. Grandsons were delighted! Service was efficient and courteous as usual.

It's a huge space with a lot of room for regular and hibachi tables, with modern decor. Service is very friendly and consistent which is not always the case with these kinds of places. They had an issue with one of the vents while we were here, however they quickly fixed it. Just needed to leave the back door open for a bit. Drinks were on the sugary side which is typical; my mai thai was good however I couldn't do 2. Soup and salad were good. Chef was one of the better hibachi chefs I've gotten. Wish they flipped shrimp instead of veggies for an appetizer, but hey, recession. More importantly than the presentation and show (which was good), they did a really good job with the food. Steak was perfectly cool if a bit over seasoned. Scallops were seared better than I've had at a lot of fancier restaurants. Massive portions too when the veggies, noodles and rice were factored in too. Of course my food got switched at home, and I got a fuckton of chicken instead of my steak. I mourned this, however will survive to return again.
