And the Award for Most Disappointing Service Goes to The Hudson River Cafe
We went to the HRC at exactly 8:33 pm. It wasnt crowed but that did not prevent us from getting lousy service..The waiter never introduced himself. He hurriedly took our order. When we inquired about whether one of the entrees would come with veggies, we were told no. Therefore, we ordered a side of veggies for $5. The entree included a huge portion of spinach. {Duh} The waiter never once asked if we needed anything or if the food was satisfactory. Now let's discuss the busboys or rather the circling vultures over prey, which in this case was your barely finished plate. They stand right by your table watching you until they determine you are done. They snatch plates without asking if you are finished. My mother even attempted to move her dessert plate from within reach and they reached over her to take her plate. Within 45 minutes we had drinks, appetizers, entrees, coffee, and dessert. We spoke to the manager about the lousy service and he seemed very apethetic {i.e. he couldn't care less}. Please be warned, if you enjoy leisure conversation over dinner and the ability to put your fork down between mouthfuls, this is not the place for you. P.S. the drinks are not worth the money. They dont taste as exotic as they sound.

Brunch
I went to brunch for the first time and I have to say that the experience was great. I live close by but i have noticed that people take for granted the restaurants that are in their own neighborhood. I had a wonderful and relaxing afternoon. The red sangria and the food were great. I cant wait to go back.

Great food, great spot
Definitely exceeded my expectations...delicious food, tons of it, great choices on the menu, and the atmosphere is fun ...gets louder and crazier as the night gets later. Service is slow...but definitely recommend for a fun date or group dinner.

Great food, fun night out
We just tried Hudson River Cafe for the first time. Food was terrific, drinks were good, and the service was solid (the server went out of his way to help us with a special request). The manager came by and was also very friendly and welcoming. It was a fun, upbeat atmosphere on a Saturday night--expect it to be on the loud side. We will definitely go back.

Great all-around place
Hudson River Café is the place that Harlem was missing. This is a restaurant where you can have a good experience and appreciate new creative combinations in their dishes. Shrimps and grits? Amazing! Lobster stack -delicious. This is my favorite spot. The staff is friendly and attentive. My kids love the macaroni and cheese and kobe sliders. This is a fantastic place to take your family. Plus as an added bonus there is outdoor dining.
