Hudson Garden Grill

We stopped in on a rainy Saturday when the menu was in transition. We were fortunate to be seated quickly. I can see how the place would fill up quickly on a nicer day, so I will definitely make reservations in the future. The food was excellent, the atmosphere was great, but what really made the experience for us was the service! The staff there made our time such fun! Christian became something of a tour guide for us when it came to meeting other members of the staff. When Juan Carlos mentioned that the Mediterranean Chicken would be good for us, Christian was there to back up the recommendation and noted how wise Juan Carlos is. How could we say no? Russell delivered our entrees, Jeny took care of us through dessert, and Christian filled in when needed. I know I'm forgetting names, but it really was fun! And I mean it when I say the food was great. Butternut squash bisque with browned butter, Mediterranean chicken with lemon potatoes, and blood orange creme brulee. Loved every bite!

The location itself is unparalleled. With views of the arboretum and the lush greenery all around, dining at this polished spot feels like a serene retreat from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The ambiance is soothing and inviting, making it the perfect place to unwind and savor a delicious meal. The service at this restaurant is exceptional. The staff is friendly, attentive, and well-versed in the menu offerings. They were more than willing to provide recommendations and cater to any dietary preferences or allergies, ensuring that every guest feels welcomed and comfortable. Speaking of the menu, the American fare served here is a true culinary delight. The dishes are crafted with the utmost care and attention to detail, using fresh and high-quality ingredients. Each bite was bursting with flavor and beautifully presented, making the dining experience truly memorable.

Recently ate here, after a visit to the NYBG. The atmosphere is very nice, although they are a bit understaffed for the amount of tables. Food was good, but could be more elaborate. Price was ok, with the Hudson burger being $25 USD. It is a big dining room, but reservations are encouraged. Overall, pretty solid but could be improved.

Very pretty inside and out. Fast service, and extremely pleasant staff. The burger and the chicken sandwich were so fresh. Hand pressed burgers and fresh cut potatoes. The salad mix was perfect! Nice to get mixed greens, instead of just romaine lettuce. They had a light lemon vinagrette on the salad. We really enjoyed our lunch. The food is pricey, but it was worth it. 30 for burgers and fries. The total bill was 59.00 with tax, and we would go back again. We enjoyed eating lunch at gardens for convenience and ambiance.

Excellent service and very attentive staff. The presentation and preparation of the food is excellent. The food and drinks themselves are deliciously toothsome with flavor combinations that are unique to this venue. The food is farm to table adding to the freshness and delicacy of its flavors. The specials are truly spectacular and always with a try. Can easily spend $40 to $60 per person but it’s worth every cent.

This place is a hidden gem! Honestly everything from the starters to the dessert is amazing and the cocktails are fantastic. We had the crudité and the beet salad to start. I had the Lamb Tagliatelle pasta and my partner had the Carrot Schnitzel, wow 🤩 both were so good! Gorgeous building as well and the interior is so beautiful it really adds to the ambiance. Great service as well. They have both indoor and outdoor seating. This is so much more than just a spot to eat while visiting the gardens. It’s so nice and I have enjoyed it so much that it honestly merits it’s own visit even if you’re not visiting the gardens, we did just that on our last visit! Reservations are recommended. A little pricey but oh so worth it! Just 10 stars all across the board.

Decent comfort American food for a decent price. to be honest if you’re visiting the botanical gardens this is just a really nice added experience. The building itself is so gorgeous and you see out to the garden and just the vibe itself was so right. I mean you wouldn’t come here for amazing food it’s pretty much just your basics with some seafood thrown in. Highly recommend making a reservation. But nothing special just a cute lunch place.

Honestly didn’t have very high expectations since cafes in museums/gardens are usually average at best. Hudson Garden Grill is a pleasant surprise. Food is more serious than I thought it would be. Some ingredients seem to be farm-to-table? Interior includes elements from the botanic garden. Visited many times and never disappointed so far. Usually crowded on weekends so reservation is recommended.
