Westville Hudson — Restaurant in New York

What a great spot for a casual lunch! The vibe at Westville Hudson is energetic, with a bright and open dining room full of natural light from its many windows. There's also a generous outdoor seating area. From the moment we arrived, the experience was seamless. The host station was efficiently helmed by three people who gave us immediate attention, acknowledged our reservation, and had our table waiting. Our server was perfectly attentive—never intrusive or rushed, allowing for a relaxed meal and easy conversation. The food was high-quality and the portions were notably generous. We ordered the Cobb and Greek salads, and despite being two grown adult males, neither of us could finish them. The optional protein add-on was a full, perfectly cooked chicken breast, which was a fantastic value. While the tables are close together in typical NYC fashion, the acoustics were great for conversation. It's clearly a favorite among the area's media and tech professionals. Highly recommend if you find yourself in this...

I came here after a movie with 6 friends.The vibe was relaxed and we got a table right away. The menu had loads of healthy choices. I was feeling tight for $$ so I ordered just one veggie item and asked the waiter, "Does it come with any bread?" He said, "I can bring you some bread, sure." When the check came, he'd charged me $2 for the bread. I also asked for more tahini for the roasted cauliflower I'd ordered (it had a very skimpy amount) and the check had a $1 charge for that.

Charging for a side dish like white bread, especially without telling me, seems amazingly petty. And charging for extra sauce? That's something no restaurant has ever done in my long years of experience. Again, you should warn customers if your restaurant insists on being that ungenerous. The two charges left a bad taste in my mouth...

6/30/18 update: Happy hour 4-7pm- This time we sat at the bar. We had the cauliflower wings, nachos & yucca fries. All three were really good! Decent HH specials and the bartenders were really great. Even though the shift change, we were not forgotten. $6 beers & wine.

5/18/19 update: brunch- I had the breakfast burrito (photo), it was good. GF had quinoa salad with poached eggs (not as runny as she likes) Coffee had a slight tang to it, but still ok. Service was good.

5/28/18 update: brunch(no Sweet N Low); I had waffles and eggs w/berries special- it was good, I'd get it again. GF had avocado toast w/eggs- it was fine. Coffee was ok- not as hot as I like it. Service was good.

Had a nice dinner, grilled chicken and two sides (mushrooms and artichokes) great! Service was awesome, all at Happy...
