This was the first place we came as a giant family of 8 for dinner. It's dog friendly inside and we…read morehad 2 dogs with us. It was hard in the past to find places for all of us but now it's even more difficulty because we still have my extremely picky BIL who has stomach issues, GERD, and a multitude of other issues, and now we have a vegan-ish person who tries to stay vegan but eats cheese, dairy, and eggs. So finding places to satisfy everyone is more complicated. This place met our needs and can meet yours: dog friendly, vegetarian options, and has something for even the pickiest of people. Me and another person got the strip steak, my husband got the Philly cheesesteak, MIL got the wunderbar burger, FIL got salmon burger, the vegan-ish got a veggie burger and one of the salads, which he split with his wife the SIL, and my picky BIL got the chicken sandwich. He freaked out over the sandwich because he wanted to know why it was moist and not dry. His partner and I were like, "You can have fully-cooked, moist chicken. Dry chicken isn't the only cooked option." But he continued to have a meltdown over his perfectly cooked chicken. He did eat it though. Family can drive you nuts sometimes. Anyways, despite the meltdown, I think we were all satisfied with our food. I did find the mashed potato on the steak to be very creamy but everything else on the plate was very good. Steak was cooked medium-rare liked I asked. Overall, the place is very good, excellent food, excellent service, and it was a busy night.

Wedges were crispy and hit the spot. The burger was just ok not much flavor unfortunately. The chicken sandwich was similar. No sauce just seemed like baked chicken between buns--very dry.

"We don't have a cocktail menu, but we can make anything you'd like."…read more That was one of the first things our server told us, and honestly, it was refreshing. These days, it feels like every bar has a cocktail menu full of creatively named drinks that require reading a list of ingredients just to figure out what you're ordering. At Governor's Tavern, if you want a gin and tonic, you simply ask for a gin and tonic. The only decision you need to make is which gin you'd like. I'm not much of a cocktail person, but I appreciate that not every place feels the need to reinvent the wheel. The place was packed at lunchtime, but we got lucky and grabbed a pair of seats across from the bar. The server who I quoted was genuinely friendly and welcoming. I ordered a Guinness, but unfortunately the keg had just kicked. She recommended the Samuel Smith chocolate stout instead and even brought me a sample before I committed to taste since I never heard of it, which was a nice touch. For food, we ordered the State Grill burger and the Nashville Hot chicken sandwich. Both were excellent, and each came with Belgian-style hand-cut fries. If you're spending the day browsing the boutiques and antique shops along Warren Street and want a drink, a good meal, and a lively mix of locals and tourists, Governor's Tavern is worth a stop.

What disappointed me most was the feeling that we were being encouraged to leave when we expressed interest in seeing another section of the restaurant. Whether that was the intention or not, it left us feeling unwelcome as guests. While the food, drinks, and service staff were enjoyable, the overall experience was negatively affected by this interaction. Français Le service et les boissons étaient bons, et le personnel qui nous a servis était agréable. Malheureusement, notre expérience globale a été gâchée par ce que j'ai perçu comme un accueil peu chaleureux de la part de la propriétaire, Eliana. Dès notre arrivée, je me suis senti mal à l'aise et peu le bienvenu. Sa façon de communiquer m'a semblé insistante et froide, ce qui a créé une atmosphère désagréable. Ce qui m'a le plus déçu, c'est le sentiment d'être encouragé à partir lorsque nous avons manifesté notre intérêt pour voir une autre partie du restaurant.

Wat mij het meest teleurstelde, was het gevoel dat we werden aangemoedigd om te vertrekken toen we interesse toonden in een ander gedeelte van het restaurant. Of dat nu de bedoeling was of niet, het gaf ons het gevoel niet gewaardeerd te worden als gasten. Hoewel de drankjes en de service goed waren, heeft deze ervaring een negatieve indruk achtergelaten. 日本語 (Japanese) ドリンクは美味しく、スタッフのサービスも良かったです。しかし残念ながら、オーナーのエリアナの態度によって全体の経験が台無しになりました。 お店に入った瞬間から、歓迎されているというよりも居心地の悪さを感じました。彼女の態度は押しつけがましく、失礼で、正直なところ「お客さんに来てほしくないのかな」と思ってしまうほどでした。 特に驚いたのは、レストランの別のエリアを見てみたいと思った時の対応です。歓迎されるどころか、「見たいなら帰ってください」と言われているような気分になりました。私はこれまで多くの国を旅し、たくさんのレストランを訪れてきましたが、このような経験は初めてです。 レストランというのは、お客さんを歓迎し、心地よく過ごしてもらう場所であるべきです。ただ中を見たいと思っただけで迷惑者のように扱われるべきではありません。 ドリンクは良く、スタッフも親切でした。しかし、オーナーの態度がそのすべてを台無しにしてしまいました。

On March 15 we had the delight of dining with our son and daughter-in-law at Manor Rock (726 Warren…read moreSt.) in Hudson, NY. First opened in late October of 2024, Manor Rock is located in a historic townhouse in Hudson and offers the quintessential farm-to-table dining experience--primarily from their farm located a few miles away in Taghkanic. My review for card-carrying members of team Cliff Notes: "Creative cuisine featuring mainly ingredients--vegetables and meats--from the Manor Rock farm in a lovely venue with engaged staff, at prices competitive with the Hudson dining scene." Everyone else is invited to continue reading. We were seated promptly at our reserved time at a round table in a cozy alcove at the front of Manor Rock. The menu, while not extensive, is filled with various sized options, designed and plated to share. Our primary server throughout the evening, Jax, advised us on how many dishes we should order after taking our drink orders. Our son ordered the evening drink special, a Maple Old Fashioned, my wife ordered a Pinot Grigio, our DIL ordered a non-alcoholic bitter called Ghia, and I order their non-alcoholic Negroni---the St. Agrestis (which was, by my taste, indistinguishable from an alcohol-ladened Negroni). Everyone really took their time savoring their drinks throughout the meal, along with water of course which was refreshed throughout the meal by the staff. Our courses started arriving promptly, a few before our drinks which was okay with us since we had already enjoyed a round of cocktails at The Here After (just around the corner from Manor Rock--721 Columbia St.) beforehand (along with an appetite-enhancing bowl of anchovy buttered popcorn). First to arrive was the Sparrowbush bread (locally baked) and a tub of soft, salted butter along with a plate of house-make pickles. The bread was fresh, slightly warm, with a lovely, spongy texture. The pickles--an assortment of golden beets, sliced fennel, and florets of cauliflower were crisp and tart in a properly savory way. Next up a salad of assorted chicories with gold tangerine, candied pecans and small cubes of Pecorino sardo. This was an incredible collection of unusual chicories which were both delicate and flavorful. Apologies for not getting a photo of this attractive dish. Along with the salad, we enjoyed a dish of Butter beans, maple bacon in a smoked broth with chermoula and grilled bread for soaking up the rich broth. Nothing was left on any of the plates during our feeding frenzy. The third round of dishes featured the stuffed roasted leeks, natascha gold potatoes, dried basil all presented over a really rich Champagne-infused raclette. While the leeks were a little difficult to cut, the taste was luscious, though the taste-star of this dish IMO was the raclette. My personal favorite dish of the evening also arrived with the leeks--Crab panisse, green garlic aioli, pickled celery and lardo. The green garlic aioli was on the bottom of the plate holding the panisse made of quinoa flour on top of which rested the fresh crab meat, a small amount of pickled celery and paper-thin slices of lardo. It was a fascinating combination of flavors which everyone raved about. I immediately put in an order for a second round of those so we could enjoy the sensation again. Our final savory course was a grilled coppa steak, spigarello, and porcini sauce charcutière. I've never seen coppa steak on a menu before and knew we had to try it. Also known as pork collar steak, coppa is a cut of pork from the shoulder, specifically the neck muscle extending down to the shoulder. It was an amazing taste treat--served medium-rare, the steak was luscious and rich, a nice contrast to the slight bitterness of the roasted spigarello (which is similar to broccolini). The sauce, made with porcini mushrooms, was sumptuous enough to drink on its own--though we resisted the temptation to do so. While we were all well satiated--though not stuffed--we had to try one of their desserts. Our DIL chose the honey ice cream with a rhubarb granita. What a splendid taste to end the meal--the rich, sweetness of the ice cream balanced wonderfully against the tartness of the granita. This was served in an ice-cold, old-fashioned silver ice cream cup illustrating the attention to detail which characterized our entire dining experience at Manor Rock. It was a memorable dining experience and there are so many others to be had in Hudson's vibrant bar and restaurant scene.

The focaccia was baked perfectly, with just the right amount of seasoning. The biggest surprise, though, was the mussels. They arrived already removed from the shells, which I wasn't expecting, but they ended up being the standout dish of the meal. The prawns were good, while the pork chop had nice flavor, though I wish it had been a little juicier. The toffee pudding is highly recommended. Overall, it was a solid meal in a comfortable setting.
