   Casual but fun place to eat--overlooking the Hudson River and Waterfront Park.

   I have eaten here several time before. This time we were inside and there was repeated extremely loud banging, which was so disruptive, all the diners were discussing it. We asked several times for it to stop and were told "Sorry, we can't." It sounded like tables were being disassembled and every 3-4 minutes a tabletop would fall to the floor with a huge bang. Finally, I got up and asked the bartender to do something as it was incredibly disruptive. He said they were preparing for a party upstairs and he was sorry, but it was what it was. All the diners were complaining and when I came back to the table, asking me what I'd been told. Finally my husband went upstairs to see what was going on and it was people blowing up balloons for a kid's birthday party and the balloons kept popping, but they were super loud. The adults were super rude to my husband and basically told him to mind his own business. It made the whole experience incredibly unpleasant and we won't be back. Noise is one thing. But to be treated so dismissively by everyone, it seems clear that our business isn't important.

   The location is great and the view is lovely. But we were seated close to the music, so it was very loud and hard to have a conversation. We only ordered and appetizer, which was not very good. Paid extra for an add on that was barely added. Waiter did not fix the issue and had a lame answer when we asked why it was not what we ordered. Hostess seemed clueless when asked about the food and later when asked about paying cash inside. Manager showed up as I was paying and removed the item in question. I was only asking for the extra few dollars to be credited, but he took the whole item off. So he was helpful, but overall, not a great experience.

   I made a reservation before 5 pm for 6 pm same night. When i arrived host said I didn't have a reservation and wouldn't seat us. I looked at open table and there were 7 seatings available. There were also empty tables on the patio. The male host said they were full. We left and went to Half Moon.

   Good menu with ample portion size. Something for everyone on the menu. My fave is the hummus with pita appetizer. Big enough to be an entre.

   We have dined at Hudson Social many times over the past several years. It is consistently very good quality gastro pub food with a great atmosphere and very friendly accommodating staff. It is located in a restored early 20th century train station building at the Metro North station along the Hudson River. Cozy and comfortable in winter and great outdoor dining in warmer months with views of the Hudson for an affordable price and often live music. Highly recommend this restaurant.
