    We ate here last night after discovering Oak Creek brewery closes at 7PM.Even though we couldn't make reservations they found a table in bar, half hour wait. Service,food & atmosphere was amazing!Seriously best restaurant in Sedona! We got swordfish sandwiches,bison burger & blackened swordfish.For dessert we got bread pudding and chocolate cake. First class service all the way, our waitress was very attentive and awesome! You have to eat here,seriously best restaurant in Sedona! Yes,said that twice,because it is that good!

    Chicken pot pie
    Mlissa H.

    This place has a BEAUTIFUL view! Not sure the rock formation name but just gorgeous. The waitress was polite. We got everything we ordered quickly. We ordered the pretzel bread and wings to start. The bread and cheese were great! The wings were a little bland if you didn't roll around in extra sauce on the plate. Not sure what made them 'fireball' because they were not spicy. Glad they didn't taste like cinnamon my son got the chicken pot pie and it just tasted like peppered chicken. It was so ridiculously hot he couldn't even try it for like 1/2 hour. My husband and I were done before he even had a bite. My husband had the bison burger and it was nothing special. I had the swordfish (I know risky since we were in the desert!) it was bland. Combining it with the sauce and potatoes made it decent. The vegetables were great. We did not stay for dessert

    We were recommended to try this place while in town on vacation. We went for lunch and didn't realize it was on the fancier end but they had a great lunch menu with some delicious options. The steak Caesar pita was SUPER good! Service was kind and there was a great view of the red rocks, even from inside. Would recommend, just be prepared for a nicer place!

    This place is amazing, amazing, amazing--I'm still thinking about the food! Every single bite was out of this world--packed with flavor and seriously delicious. You can tell they put real thought into every dish. The bruschetta was a standout, and I loved that it was cut in half, making it perfect for sharing (or not... no judgment if you keep it all to yourself ). Fair warning: the salads are HUGE. Like, full-on entrée status. If you order one, you might not have room for much else--but honestly, it could easily be your whole meal and you'd leave happy. The service? Excellent. Attentive without being overbearing. The ambiance hit that sweet spot--comfortable, inviting, and just the right vibe for a night out. And yes, there's a full bar, which just seals the deal. I'll definitely be back. This spot absolutely delivers from start to finish.

    Super pretty views! This restaurant has great views. A few things to note: we made a reservation thinking we would be outside, but we were seated in the dining room inside. Apparently outside is just for walk-ins and the wait was super long. The famous pot pie was good- huge portion. The fries were a bit salty for my liking. The whipped feta was a little dry. There is an extensive drink menu, which is fun.

    Beautiful views, amazing service by Brooks, nice wine list and great food. The atmosphere was lively but not too loud. The deconstructed banana crème pie stole the show!

    Open-Face Turkey Sandwich
    Victoria P.

    Wow absolutely blown away! This is our 2nd time visiting Sedona in the last 15 years and everything was just as amazing as we remember it. We decided to give the Hudson a try when they first opened at 11:30am. Food (5/5): One word. Fantastic! We ordered their famous mushroom burger, chicken caprese sandwich, open face turkey sandwich, the chicken pot pie, and the southwestern chicken pasta. The mushroom burger was juicy and well flavored. The fries were perfectly crispy and salted. The turkey sandwich had a generous portion of cheese layered on top of avocado, tomatoes, and tasty turkey. The pot pie had a nice, flakey layered crust and the filling was creamy and delicious! The southwestern chicken pasta had a great variety of flavors! Lastly, we stuffed ourselves with their peach cobbler topped with decadent vanilla ice cream. The textures together were delightful! Service: Super quick and professional! Our server, Kyle, was friendly and super attentive. We appreciated his recommendations and hospitality! Other staff members came to refill our drinks and made sure we were comfortable during our stay as well. Ambiance: Beautiful! This restaurant was located in the back of the Hillside parking complex after you walk up a nice big staircase. Our table had a direct view to the Sedona rock scape and it was amazing to look at while eating. The restaurant was nicely air conditioned and luxurious looking.

    Hudson Mushroom Burger
    Jay Y.

    Beautiful atmosphere in Sedona, but be prepared for a wait. We waited about 45 minutes, and the table turnover isn't very fast, so expect a long wait during peak hours. For starters, the beer battered calamari and dynamite shrimp had very strong Asian-inspired flavors. As for the Hudson Mushroom Burger, it's served on ciabatta-style bread rather than a standard bun, making it feel more like a sandwich. It was good, but I wouldn't call it the best I've had. On the plus side, the portions are generous and the side of fries/coleslaw were satisfying. Having visited for three years in a row, I felt the taste wasn't quite as good as it used to be, which was a bit disappointing.

    Whipped Feta & Steak Salad
    Dee F.

    What a view! We sat inside to escape the heat. They will divide sharables in the kitchen no charge. Nice recommendations by our server. Whipped feta for the win! Tender steak salad. Craft cocktsils. The manager of the day super hard working! But, could ease up on the staff. A relaxed leader = a relaxed staff. Would definitely come again!

    Food was on point and beautiful, clean atmosphere. Surprisingly sub par service. We felt like we bothering them. Otherwise good spot, I would head to Mariposa, night and day difference in service and you'll get amazing food and views etc.

    Roasted beet salad
    Elaine F.

    We had hoped to sit outside, but even with umbrellas, in the late afternoon, there really was no shade. So they gave us a nice corner table in the back, and the A/C did feel good. There was a lot of server traffic, being right next to the door, but we still got the views. We both ordered the corn chowder. It was very thick, more like chili than soup. My roasted beet salad was very good. My husband ordered the chicken pot pie, and he could only eat half of it. This is a very popular, trendy place. It was hard to spot from the main road.

    salmon, bruschetta, and avocado bruschetta
    LeAndra M.

    I absolutely love this place. Why one vacation we loved it so much we stopped by a second time just because the food was so good. If you are able to get there while the sun is still up, you're gonna wanna make sure you have your camera ready. Dinner with a view lunch with the view or whatever we have you. This place is top-notch and prices are very reasonable. Portion sizes are good. The adult beverages if it's something you're into are really flavorful. My number one was a Caesar salad. I added in shrimp and it was so good. We also were able to try a few other menu items things that we did return a second time and those items also were very good. Just remember this place does close fairly early and you wanna make sure you get your name on the Books for a reservation.

    Casey B.

    One of the best dinners and views in Sedona. Service and food are unbelievable every time. Get a reservation in advance. The Chef is fantastic and will do all he can to make sure you have a great experience. We ate here 3 of our last 4 nights. I would give it 6 stars if I could.

Throughout the meal, not a single drink at our table was refilled or asked to be refilled once. We spent most of the time with empty drinks, and basic table check-ins were lacking overall. I did jokingly ask the server "What do we get for leaving a review" and I can tell she was taken aback by the question but still came back with my order saying all she could was extra whip cream because she didn't have that kind of reputation. I feel as though this shows her lack of confidence and experience. I don't expect free things, but I do expect attentive service -- especially when asking customers to publicly praise the experience. Hopefully this is taken as constructive criticism because there's definitely room for improvement in attentiveness and customer care. On another note, the pasta was definitely really good.
