“ Excellent time. Great food. Great view of the river and across to the mountains. Love sitting out on the deck area where it's sunny and beautiful. Services great. Tacos are exceptional ”
“ Hudson Taco is a great place for some fresh tacos. They vary from your classic chicken to a more exploratory special. The special for us was Korean Bulgogi and it wasn’t bad. They served the tacos family style for the whole table after you filled out a little survey sheet. Also, the margaritas were great and paired well with some creamy guacamole. As for the service, our server was super nice and attentive. All in all, the place was clearly popular, serves good food in a timely manner, and I will probably go back soon. ”
“ This place hands-down is the best taco place in New York State 100% they have the most unbelievable selection of tacos you will ever seen in your life. The tacos are about 2 to 3 bites per taco and they are absolutely phenomenal. The view from your seat is absolutely crazy. It is right on the water overlooking a beautiful bridge and water scenery. The guacamole is delicious and every taco I had was great. The dessert is very delicious as well. The drinks are a must try. They make absolutely great drinks.!!! if you are on the road and you are hungry this is a must stop detour!!! I ”
“ The only downside for this place is that they don't take reservations, and wait time on busy days can be fairly long, especially when the outdoor seating option (which usually has a shorter wait time) is starting to be too cold on some occasions. Now for what you're actually looking to hear - The food here is AMAZING! Yes, those are not authentic Mexican street tacos, but that is also not the vibe they are trying to achieve - they have the biggest taco selection I've seen, and I wanted to try all of them! Unfortunately I only got to try 6 different ones but I do plan on coming back for the rest, and then again for the ones I liked, and then again... You get the point. Every single taco we had was ON-POINT. The flavor of the main ingredient did not suffer from over complications of add-ons, the presentation was inviting, it was easy to identify what's what, the portions are good, and the price was very fair. Yes, I recommend that you go there, at least once, wait for a table if it's busy, and try as many tacos as you can! I'm a little over an hour away and I'm definitely coming back. Oh, they have other things on the menu as well. From what we tried - they were good. Especially the corn on the cob. Check out their menu but honestly - you go there for the tacos. Add it to your list of MUST TRY and stop there when you have a chance. ”
“ Great Vibes! Excelent service! Delicious food! Love: the classic margarita You can taste the tequila and limes. Not too strong, not too sweet Just Right! The Baja Fish Tacos are to die for!! Always fresh and perfectly balance with slaw. We usually get the "not taco special" as we come often and it's always fun to try their beautiful plated creations. The staff is always nice, accommodating and very attentive. ”
