Chef Richie Deli — Restaurant in City of Hudson

My husband eats here everyday after work, I was finally able to join him and learn what the ylhype is all about. Immediately upon entering we were greeted with a warm "hello, how are you today.?" I spent a few minutes checking out the menu, SOOO many options, everything gluten free, vegan, dairy free, vegetarian, if you follow a specific diet they have options for you. I finally mad a decision and ordered a caramelized onion smash burger with cheese lettuce,tomato and onion.. It was delicious. Real meat, seasoned to perfection, the tastiest cheese I've ever had, produce so fresh you would have though they got it straight from a secret hidden garden. Came on a grilled to perfection potato roll. They have a list of condiments to choose from but I chose dry. It was perfect, even without condiments it was jucy (NOT GREASY) and the flavor ws delicious, something I've never tasted before. (I've traveled all over the US,and never have I tasted something so delicious). Myself, my husband, my son, and 2 other adult friends all got smash burgers and all different. (Different cheeses,sauces,veggies, or other add on's like bacon, or avocado). e all claimed ours was the best. This place does not disappoint. Wrapped nice and tight with foil to keep it warm, wrapped in a napkin preventing it from becoming soggy. If I could vote higher, I certainly would. . I'll definitely be back, everytime I'm in town! They do have breakfast options all day as well. Sandwiches, omelets, home fries, they have it all!! If ordering at the counter wait time about 10 minutes, but you can order a head and pick up, or order off grub hub, and receive the same fresh and...

This morning, placed an order through door dash. This is the only consistent way I’ve found to place an order ahead of time, the owner does not pick up the phone or receive online orders from the fully functional website.

Ok so. Placed an order through door dash. Owner never confirmed order—okay, this has happened before at chef Richie’s deli. However, I was already charged for my breakfast order. I get on my coat and shoes and walk over.

When I get there, the sign says closed, the door is locked, but chef Richie is behind the counter doing prep. 9:30 am btw. I knock on the door, he finally comes over to the door after I loudly said “I was charged already for this order.”

I’m not sure what state of mind he was in, maybe he needed another cup of coffee. He said he didn’t receive an order and the store wasn’t “ready to be open yet” (Google said it’s open, I was able to order and be charged)

I said as much, said I would appreciate if he could cancel the order on his end since he wasn’t going to make it. He said he was in fact preparing the order, then listed off a Greek salad or something which I didn’t order. He told me to call them to have them cancel the order, then shut the door in my face....

I’m so disappointed in this place now. The first time I tried their food, it was delicious so I decided to order again about a week ago… came out to $60! I ordered the hot honey chicken, roast beef cheddar, a slice of cake and a slice of cheesecake. The hot honey chicken sandwich was not only dry but the chicken in it was burnt which made it almost inedible. The roast beef cheddar was dry too with barely any cheese. After the disappointing dinner, we decided to try the desserts. The first was a salted caramel (which we weren’t sure exactly what it was since that’s all it says) and it had a very strange taste. I’m not sure if the cake (turned out to be a slice of cake) was cooked in oil since it tasted like it was fried with bad oil or if it just had gone bad but we threw out the rest of the slice. The next day I decided to try the second dessert which was supposed to be Oreo Cheesecake. I opened it and to my surprise it was very much not cheesecake, VERY stale and when I tossed it in the garbage there was literal mold all over the bottom of the slice. Unfortunately this experience ruined it for me.. you can make people extremely sick serving bad food and I won’t be...
