Amazing tacos and Margarita’s. Really need age restaurant that when you order for, you simply mark off what you want on the menu, they come and take it. Food is super fast. Small portions, but delicious. I recommend the pitcher of margarita. Very cool environment.
We finally made it Hudson Tacos 🌮 and this place is everything I heard from folks and then some more. We ordered guacamole as a starter and we ordered mixed it up for tacos - ahi, pork, shrimp, steak and fish. The fish and ahi was my two favorites …… shrimp is good but not as good as tuna and fish. The fist round we ordered 14 tacos and the second round 16. They are small but packed with tons on flavors and you just can’t stop eating. Service was really spot on and they even allow pets on the outdoor patio. Hudson Taco is a perfect place for summer hangouts with friends and family. Not sure if you can have a big group in the outdoor seating because the tables are picnic style and only fits group of 4. I can’t wait to see what you think of this place…… go give it a try and show them some love.
The food here is honestly exceptional, and I will keep coming back even though the experience is always a panic attack waiting to happen. It’s a trendy taco place with an incredible view and fun industrial vibe that for some reason has chosen to have the ambiance of a night club. It is always packed and they don’t take reservations, so prepare to wait. The first time we went we ended up sitting at the bar. The food came out at all different times and their system seems to be a bit unorganized. We’d watch waiters bringing our dishes out and attempting to give them to multiple other customers before realizing it was ours. Honesty it was *kind of* a turnoff seeing them put our food in front of the faces of random strangers who would inspect the food and say it wasn’t theirs… didn’t feel to be the safest approach in the middle of a pandemic… but we are choosing to eat out so I guess it’s on us. Anyway… the food IS great. I highly recommend the street corn. I’d also suggest coming at an early time on a week night with hopes to get a table and not sit at the bar
Now I’ve been to a very similar restaurant when it comes to its offerings and menu options. Hudson Taco does it way better. There will always be a wait. Parking was simple due to lot available and ample street parking but it’s busy so prepare for that. The food was all fresh and very tasty. Pictured are their appetizers such as fresh pineapple, tuna tartare, street corn and ceviche. The tacos pictured are their Asian Tuna taco which was just like a fresh sushi roll that was wrapped in bib lettuce. The drinks were interesting because you couldn’t customize much but I was able to add rum to their mango pineapple juice and it the perfect summer drink. Refreshing and sweet but not too sugary. Service was attentive even though it was packed but totally worth the wait if you’re in the mood for some good tacos and drinks.
Place was legit as everyone said who recommended. Friendly knowledgeable staff and fast service. Loved trying out different tacos, looking forward to trying the rest.
Excellent service, after ordering the food arrives to your table FAST (a no BS 5-10mins), the specials do not disappoint (including tacos, not tacos, drinks and desserts). The staff is attentive and professional. The ambiance is fun and relaxed. You place your order, as a table, on a check box style card. The arrives family style with the entire order on trays.
Went this past Friday night, it was slammed over an hour wait, as they dont take reservations. However, Paul (one of the managers) and his staff were on point. Chose to wait at the bar, and was served drinks promptly, bartenders are good, at what they do. They didnt have my first few drinks of choice, but to be fair they are relatively new choices of the liquor I drink. Little pricey for the drinks, but decently made. When we did finally get to sit down at our table we were greeted by our server. Paul came around to see how we were doing, several times even with running the restaurant. The food was delicious, on point with the price. Overall if you got the time to spare for the wait, if there is one, check out Hudson Taco 🌮 right on the waterfront in Newburgh.
This 4th of July I took my girlfriend and her kids to Hudson Taco. My girlfriend asked for $14 drink that sounded good but after one sip she didnt like. I asked our very nice waitress if we could switch the drink to something my girlfriend was familiar with.She consulted the manager Chanel. We were told the $14 drink my girlfriend didnt like would not be able to be switched. We would have to order a another drink.Ill let you decide what that communicates.
Great tacos with lots of flavor. Delish all day. Polite staff, very clean and the best part is........ the food comes out quickly. Great views near the water. Seating inside and out.
Delicious food with relaxing atmosphere. Would highly recommend! Be sure to get a variety of tacos and other menu options to truly enjoy the experience. If there is a long wait... which there will be since the food is so good... grab a seat at the bar and enjoy a delicious margarita!
Had the absolute best time here on a Saturday night. We had the best bartender who was more than happy to always explain everything about the drinks when we asked. The best music. The food was also very delicious.
Really nice atmosphere and inside decor. Tacos were good. Mushroom and shishito pepper tacos were wonderful. The guac and salsa are delicious. Street corn is also great. Def a great place to check out.
Great, fresh food! Nice views and atmosphere. The staff was friendly.
❤️. All their tacos are delicious. Beautiful restaurant with a great view. Very nice attentive staff! The churros 😋 have to try them!
Awesome place! Service is very fast and the tacos are great! Lots of different choices. Prices are not too bad either!
The service was great and the waitress was super sweet and explained how everything worked. It was different how you order things since you use your phone to scan to look at the menu and then mark a sheet on what you want. The food came out fresh and fast. It was a great experience for our first time. My only thing is I wish they were a bit more attentive about refilling drinks. It was hot outside and we were not offered any refills on drinks 😒 so that was the only down side. We sat there a long time since we had met up for lunch since we had not seen each other in a couple years due to covid so it would have been nice to have gotten more refills on drinks. The food was great and on point. Sitting outside was also nice to. It was a great view and you get to see the train go by. Definitely give this place a shot and save some room for the dessert 🍨😋
Impressed.Not from the area. Randomly tried this restaurant and loved most of the meal!The speciality tacos were great, except the lobster tacos, and the churro were disappointing.❤️ = Empanadas, fried plantains, corn, sauces, General Tso Tacos
Hudson Taco is an excellent restaurant. The ambiance is second to none. Sitting on the back porch area allows great views of the Hudson and the train track are right below the restaurant. The place is filled with wait staff so there is not much down time one youre seated. We airways get the Guac + Roja + Verde as an app and then use the left over sauce for our tacos. The BEST item on this menu is the Empanada! I couldnt get a picture due to my family digging in as soon s they were placed on the table. The Asian Tuna Taco is their best Taco followed by General Tsos, Skirt Steak, and BBQ Short Rib. The reason I did not give it a star is because the Baja Fish Taco and the Chicken Taco were lacking any flavor and the Churros were a little soggy. All in all, I highly recommend this place.
A great taco spot with amazing views of the Hudson River! Service was quick and our waitress was friendly. Some tacos were definitely better than others (loved the fish tacos and mushroom tacos, while the crab cake one was dry and the chicken one just didn’t pack a whole lot of flavor). Would definitely go back though!
Great food, great waitstaff, fun atmosphere. Thoughtful and caring staff. Informed my waiter, Kevin, I had severe fish allergies. He reviewed each item I ordered with me to let me know if it was safe to eat or needed to change selection. Very impressive. Highly recommend to others.
OMG INCREDIBLE!This food deserves to in magazines! The tacos were made perfectly, and they felt super authentic (because they were). The hot sauce bottles on the table were also super good to try on all the tacos. The staff was friendly and it was overall such a great visit. We had an awesome time and look forward to visiting again!Overall Rating: 10/10
My BFF and I try several different tacos, beef empanadas and sweet plantains. Every items was very good. The ambience and friendly service was a great addition. A must try is the strawberry mint lemonade. We look forward to coming back.
Cocktails were excellent. Tacos and the variety they had were awesome. Prices very reasonable. Would definitely recommend. Nice spot on the water and the bar is great.
This place served the best tacos I have ever had since I was in Mexico. Each one was better than the last. Absolute perfection! Not only was the food amazing, but the service there was impeccable! I cant wait to go back!
Food, atmosphere and service was great! Came here on a Friday night and the wait was about 40 minutes but they have benches outside. We ordered tacos and they were delicious. We also had great drinks and the service was awesome. Definitely will be returning.
Great view and atmosphere. The family style plating takes some getting use too....better remember what you ordered. Slightly pricey but we were hungry...our late lunch averaged $35/pp with tax/tip and we all left full (no alcohol)Biker friendly! Went with the US Military Vets MC, Hudson valley chapter
Totally worth a visit (and several revisits)! Drinks are great and the tacos are phenomenal. Lots of variety and all of them so yummy! Our waitress, Dacia, was incredible. Very welcoming, friendly and had excellent recommendations. Thanks for a great experience!
Great view, great vibe, and delicious food. Everything can be taco’ed. I always make a stop here for a decent meal when traveling to upstate New York.
We come here a lot but today after we ordered we were told computer system went down. Our waitress Alexa (who was very sweet) explained to us what happened. My husband who asked for a manager to speak to. Joe (the manager) came over and after talking to us very respectfully said he would see what he can do to get our order in. Joe and Alexa went well beyond and did manage to get our order through. We were so grateful.😊 I highly recommend this restaurant for the food which is excellent plus the service and friendlyness of staff is tops!!😋👍
Tacos. Glorious, glorious tacos. Music was pretty loud, but MetallicA was blasting so honestly I wish it was louder. Price was wildly inexpensive. Service was incredibly on point. Full recommend, full send.*Post pandemic update*Still awesome.
Love the atmosphere! The indoor/outdoor dining experience is so beautiful and the food is stellar! The owner is also SO kind and attentive, he went out of his way to ensure my experience was 11/10 from the beginning to end. Will definitely return!
This is one of the best restaurants I have EVER been to. I give a lot of well deserved 5 stars to a lot of restaurants I have reviewed. I wish I could give thos place 6, maybe 7. I honestly think that this place would have something for everyone food wise.Service is unbelievably friendly and fast yet never rushed. I will be planning a family outing so that my entire family came experience this place. I visited this area for business and I will return here for pleasure.
The sat us right away, they greet us. They explain how the ordering works because it was out first time here. Our waiter had patience a explained everything. My husband and I order tacos, chicken, beef, carnitas, and general Tso. They were amazing!! I forgot to take a picture, I couldn’t wait! We also order guacamole, it was delicious I would def come back again!
I was excited to try this place out. The view, vibe and atmosphere were great. All I can say about the food is: if it’s on a tortilla, you can call it a taco. I was expecting to experience really good Mexican food - this, however, was not the case. The flavor was ok and you’ll end up paying a lot for a little.
Never a bad meal here. On top of the yummy margaritas and tacos. The papi chicken is so flavorful! Def a must try!
I was pleasantly surprised. I dont remember it being this delicious when I went last year. Really enjoyed it, and although I loved getting seated right away, I would have given five stars if the tables were slightly more spaced apart and it didnt feel so crowded walking to and away from our table.
Fantastic! My husband and I found this place on a whim. Now we cant get tacos anywhere else because these were so tasty. We loved everything we had there. It was nice to have a place that was quick and tasty. 10/10 recommend
Great food great drinks and awesome service. For the place to be so busy the servers hustle hard
I still think about this place 🥺 best tacos I have ever had, soup was amazing. The cost was fair and everything was very fresh! It was super hard to get in and get parking but we made it!I have yet to find a bar taco type place like this near me. Anytime I am out that way Im begging to go to Hudson taco.
I found myself in Newburgh with two hours to kill and thought Id stop in for a quick bite. It was jammed with people! I was so surprised when I walked in because it was a Monday at 6:30! Then I tasted the food and understood. All the tacos I had were incredible and they were very good about my dairy allergy. The drinks were fantastic too and the bartenders were quick and friendly!
Great food, service was good, beautiful views! We were able to order as the food came (and went), very laid back, and reasonable portions. Only drawback was the loud music, when I say loud, I mean it was hard to hear the person next to me in the booth. Maybe for a younger crowd? Food was definitely worth the tinnitus flare up though.
Food well presented, but lacked flavor . Great atmosphere , great staff . The drinks were very refreshing 🍹
Street corn legit, drinks awesome . Small plates which I didn’t like because you get 3 itty bitty tacos which didn’t fill me up I ordered a bowl and I was ok. FYI the guacamole and chips was great
The food was great! Atmosphere great. Our service as well! Matt was our waiter and he was friendly and explained the menu and drinks thoroughly. My first time there, definitely will be back.
Amazing food, great ambience, tasty drinks. Great spot for a meet up with friends or a date, not your intimate sit down dinner spot. Their Happy birthday game is on point as well. Cant wait to go back.
Amazing food , drinks and friendly staff ! Definitely 5 stars !
I must say the ambiance and decor is very beautiful. The service was excellent as well. but I feel like the food could be better and also more hot sauces would be nice hot sauce options is important especially for a taco joint. I did also enjoyed the beef empanada stuffing.
Amazing view!! Awesome vibe!! The drinks were delicious!!!! We had the Cantarito (just wow!), the Summer Water (delicious!), melon margarita (this one was strong!) and the Tallulah Love (this one was a bit disappointing. Tasted a little medicinal). The tacos were okay! And the featured Not Tacos: the grilled octopus had incredible flavor and the pork belly chicharrones deserve some type of award!
The location is very convenient and there is ample parking. The building is very cool and inside is big with modern decor and a nice view of the Hudson. The staff is very friendly and attentive. Our waiter was patient with us as it was our first time there. There is a variety of soft tacos to choose from and they are very small so you can order as many as you want. He offered his recommendations and described the food to us. The food came out so quick! I recommend ordering a little at a time...we didnt and there was no room on the table! Lol. Everything was soo delicious!!! Even the aqua fresca! I will def come back!!
Very innovative street tacos (loved the mushroom one) in a fantastic setting along the Hudson River in a former train depot. The occasional freight train rumbling past was part of the charm as was the very, very distant view of the prison on the opposite shore of the Hudson. This is a great place to go after visiting the Storm King sculpture park.
Such a great place, views are amazing and the food was perfect! Staff was very nice and there are lots of seats. Easy parking as well!
Great option for tapas tacos. A lovely selection of styles and flavors. The service was great. Tacos and sides come within minutes of ordering. Would recommend to anyone who loves simple things done well and variety.
The food was amazing! Paul the manager was so accommodating and sweet. He really made sure we were satisfied. We live pretty far away and we will definitely be coming back!
We tried a variety of tacos and sides on our visit to Hudson Taco and I must say that everything was delicious! Shout out to the plantains, guacamole, empanadas, and carnitas tacos in particular! I would definitely return.
Upscale and delicious is all you need to know about this place. The atmosphere is dark and cozy with the bar being the center piece. In the summer time you can have beautiful views of the Hudson River.The cocktails are good but they truly shine with their tacos! These are gourmet tacos that are made with good ingredients and are made to order. Sit back and let your taste buds enjoy the meal.
Great drinks and great food! Loved the plantains, empanadas and steak tacos! Fast service which is also a huge plus. Keep doing your thing Hudson taco! Will be back.
Amazing everything. Even dessert was a treat. Highly recommend the churros with Carmel sauce. Great alcohol menu. ONLY minor complaint is that they have not even 1 Cerveza. I like tequila but sometimes a cold beer makes a taco taste even better. 😋
Staff: quick & knowledgeable!Food: theres litterally nothing bad here.Drinks : read above.
Another favorite place in Newburgh. I have been to Hudson Taco many times, every time we have tried different tacos and they are all on point. The only draw back is that depending on the time be ready to wait special at night. The service is very attentive and the mix drinks are so delicious. I havent sat at the bar but the views are great specially if you get to seat outside in the summer. Definitely a great place to go have drinks and eat some great tacos.
Great taco spot, food is fresh and flavorful. And despite being packed, everything came out super fast. Our server was on it. Cant wait to go back!
Amazing food and fantastic drinks, small servings but worth it. Everything is packed with flavor! Tacos were just okay and not the stars of the day.The view is spectacular and fun atmosphere.
Nice spot on Hudson river,Newburgh NY.Good vibes.
Great local place for lunch solo or with friends company, food is good and great atmosphere
Beautiful outdoor seating overlooking the river. Polite service and great food! All those needed to make a great restaurant! I ordered corn salad, guac roja Verde, and a few tacos. As a vegetarian I was very impressed since they nailed the food! The drinks were pretty good too.
The food is consistently great every time I go there. Never had a bad meal. The staff is very knowledgeable about all items on the menu.
Tiny, filing, flavorful tacos! Beautiful view with outdoor seating. Save room for Plantains ! Staff runs around to keep up with customers. Be prepared for a wait but it is worth it.
Hudson Taco used to be an amazing spot with great food. Its definitely not what it used to be. The tacos have changed. The chorizo taco used to be crumbled chorizo, seasoned and so hot (temperature) that the smell lingered at your nose. Now, its chunks of cold chorizo on thin tortilla. They didnt fail on the baja fish or citrus shrimp tacos. Those were still👌🏾. The drinks are good too...just less ice. The grapefruit mojito and classic margaritas are the best drinks there!
It’s a little pricey but it’s good. Their menu works like a all you can eat sushi menu. Lots of great options. Great atmosphere and dining on the Hudson. River.
An awesome restaurant in the historic Newburgh railroad station which was beautifully restored from a sadly crumbling mess, to a charming little Taco Restaurant! I went in the afternoon, mid week and was seated immediately at a table for two, overlooking the river. The place is fairly small, and I understand that it gets packed on the weekends, and I understand why! The food is very well prepared, well seasoned and very fresh. The tacos are quite small, but packed with flavors, and I really wanted to taste them all, alas, I was filled to the brim with two tacos, chicken soup, and fantastically delicious guacamole that comes with very large chips that you get to break up into just the perfect size for you! Overall worth it!
This was one of the best taco restaurants I’ve ever been to. They had tacos for everyone appetite and some amazing sides to go with it. We also tried the “social pitcher” which was the perfect combination with our meal. The margaritas were delicious!
First time visit. Suggested by co-worker. A line started forming at 11:35am before opening a 12:00pm. Nice view of the Hudson. Outdoor seating is available. Tacos are small and tasty but there are bowls. My favorites were the cauliflower and Baja fish. General Tso chicken and crab cake are close seconds.
Very good food. Only complaint is its a bit pricey for one taco. I guess thats what you get for waterfront food. They are Fancy tacos . Regardless, staff very friendly. Their service system is very great and if youre looking for good quality and dont mind spending a bit. This is the place
Delicious and the service was awesome. Great views from the balcony and outside patio. Outside patio has heaters.Crab tacos 🌮Shrimp tacos🌮Red snapper tacos 🌮Baja tacos 🌮Margaritas 🍹🍹Korean bbq tacos 🌮Chicken tacos🌮Steak tacos 🌮And my new favorite taco tee-shirtAnd if you get margaritas, upgrade the tequila, they will taste better
My girl loved the tacos I lived the not taco special very good! Empanadas were best ones Ive had.
Awesome space.Great foodGreat vibeGreat atmosphereExcellent waitstaff5 stars is all I can give but I feel that all that they provide and do for the customer experience is above and beyond.
My family had invited friends to came and eat with us at Hudson Tacos bad mistake , kids eat tacos and empanadas , as we had the Tacos and empanadas , the empanadas tasted funny but we eat them at the time , figuring the other tacos and seasonings contributed to the taste buds , well we all went home that night was not fun including our friend s we all were regurgitating and going number two all night with stomach cramps,Called to talk to a manager a young hostess picked up and put me on hold for 1/2 hr. Called again the same thing . So I am posting our experience at this place , was a negative experience
The worse soft tortilla tacos I’ve ever had, with only meats, chicken and beef. They were missing the lettuce, tomatoes and cilantro—just awful. I addition, the chicken bowl with guinao and veggies was missing the chicken.
The hosts were very welcoming and informative about the wait. We waited to get a patio table for the wonderful view. The server was very helpful in explaining the family style ordering. Also very attentive to refilling water and taking our order in a timely manner. I tried all the tacos and I enjoyed each one.
Good food but a bit limited menu. Drinks are tasty. Great service. Good place to hang out. Nice vibes.
The food was quite good. Loved the substitution for .25 for the bib lettuce as opposed to the taco. The loaded guac was overpriced. Didnt think that was amazing, but because it had cream they are able to price it up to$15. The pork belly tacos are really good though. 2nd fav taco was the crab cake. No happy hour 😭. Drinks were not that strong in terms of cocktails. Overall the ambiance was great as it was neat the water. Shout it to the music that was playing. Not sure if it was a dj or just a playlist, but the music was so good. Super on point and even the tradition between songs were great.
Lively place. This is a stop you need to make. Very active atmosphere. Full bar service. Be prepared to wait for a table, yet once seated and your order goes in...zap!..food starts arriving. It is served when it is ready, not when all table orders are complete. Simple, non-fussy food that is flavorful. We found it relatively inexpensive for our taste. Nicely decorated and furnished, with great river views. Trendy, but definitely not snobby. A definite repeat is in order.
Pretty much amazing. This was such a great idea. Family style serving and fast. The mixed drinks are incredible. Jalapeno Margarita and tequila old fashioned are a delicious. Tacos come out so fast and incredible. The are on the smaller side but fantastic. Try this place out if you get a chance it wont disappoint. Its always packed right now but its worth the wait and you get out fast.
Beautiful restaurant, nice open feel with a terrific view of the hudson. Friendly staff is familiar with the menu and makes great suggestions. Amazing, extra delicious, food. Im a huge fan of street tacos, I particularly enjoyed the pork belly taco. Will definitely be returning again.
Our friend suggested this place. Wow! The views of the Hudson River! The selection of tacos is amazing. You should keep track of what YOU order, as the tables orders are brought out plated together.
Food was okay, we had almost one of each taco and a tuna thing. Drinks were great, vulcano and melon margaritas. As you can see though, it wasnt much, but the total came out to $80 before tips. Anyone whos ever has street tacos might think this is a bit pricy, which would be easy to overlook if the food was more than okay but it wasnt. Nothing stuck out as bad because nothing stuck out at all. Not to mention, the atmosphere was really cramped (probably because they put us at a tiny wobbly table in the middle of the restaurant). I asked to be moved twice and was told Ill check for you and never got an answer, I dont know if the blatant disregard was because we were younger but it seemed like there were plenty of other seats available. To top it off, people came by several times to clear food off our table WHILE WE WERE STILL EATING. Anyone who has even been 10 feet of a restaurant knows that this is unacceptable. The margaritas were superb though, mixed and garnished perfectly. I just wish that there was more than 5 sips in a glass.
Excellent food at Hudson Taco. I missed happy hour, so there was a wait to get seated. I had some signature tacos, guacamole, cheviche and drinks. Rockin music also....
I absolutely LOVE this place! The environment is so special and the service is the best! The tacos are so good you just can’t stop eating! 😳 100% recommended! ✌🏼
This place is new and their service model is unique. We were seated quickly and the waiter explained how to get our food. The food was brought quickly and holy cow what an experience. The Korean bbq shortrib taco was definitely my favorite but the empenadas were out of this world!!
The wait time was very short 10 minutes , even though it was a full house the food was amazing and the staff was great cant wait to dine in again. Good vibes the music was awesome.
Completely inauthentic atmosphere was amazing but its white people tacos. By the way Im white, its just not tasty but location location location so they will sell that bs and it will be a great opportunity for them
Music was a little loud, but our server, I believe her name was Taylor, was excellent. Very kind and attentive, explained everything very well and made sure we were well taken care of.
Went here with the family and all I can say is BELIEVE the hype. The atmosphere is contemporary with high energy aided by great music. We really enjoyed the food coming out from the kitchen as it was prepared. The food selection was excellent with enough options to meet just about anyones palate. We ordered 24 tacos with various fillings. For beef lovers, the shaved Rib Eye and Korean BBQ Shortrib were delicious. We also shared a few Empanadas which everyone loved. Some even ordered more after we polished off the tacos. The wait staff definitely hustle and were all friendly, knowledgable and helpful. This is a busy place so be prepared to wait or pick an off time to go which is what we did. We will definitely be back real soon.
Went for Mother’s Day. There was a wait but they allowed us to sit at the bar.Once seated food was prepared very quickly and tasty.
Nice place with great views to get good cocktails and good tacos! The atmosphere is fun and the staff is very friendly. Service is fast even when crowded.
Our Waitress was amazing. Loved her and how she helped us with our order. Ordering takes some getting use to but the food was good. Lots of great options. Music was a little loud but it could be because we were sitting by the speaker.
This is a fantastic restaurant with great ambiance. The restaurant has a wide variety of extraordinary fusion tacos. A must!
My favorite place for Tex mex! Great unique experience with ordering a la carte as you please. The food is always fresh and comes out fast.
The server Melissa was absolutely amazing and so was the bus boy Mike. The food was beyond amazing. My wife and I couldnt have asked for a better experience.
Like the vibe of this place. Awesome selection of tacos, non-tacos, bowls and sides. Really good drink menu if you’re so inclined. You select what you want and markup your own order ticket for the waiter.Definitely will visit here again.
Tried to get seating for a large party and was told as per the restaurant policy they cannot take reservations....which is fine ... but then when asked about seating with eachother, they said that may not be possible either. Keep in mind they would have 20 hours notice to make this possible. Very disappointed with managements demeanor and tone.
The small tacos nicely put together. The sauces are good and spicy great venue to bring your friends
Super delicious Tacos, be prepared to order a lot of them, 3-4 bites and its gone, but thats not a bad thing. From crab cake tacos, fryed chicken tacos, and pork belly tacos thats just few out of many delicious choices, and yes you can substitute for lettuce as well, so everyone can enjoy. Make sure you give your self time to wait in line this place is very popular and they are busy. They will put you on a list sometimes telling you it might be 30 -45 minites to be seated but the last time I went and they told me that, I got a message from them not even within 10 minutes that the table was ready and I was able to enjoy the delicious tacos :D.
Don’t let the long wait deter you, it’s worth it and the food flies once you sit down. My recommendation, have at least one of everything on the menu, seriously! From the guacamole to the empanadas to the tacos to the churros, the flavors are full and distinct. Located in the old train station on the waterfront, the scenery couldn’t be better. The waitstaff super friendly and attentive. Best new restaurant in the Valley!1 large guacamole, 5 empanadas, 3 street corns, 9 tacos, 12 churros, 1 mojito, and 1 margarita - $125 with tax and tip.
The restaurants ambiance is fun and pleasant. The food is very good. You will not be disappointed.
Casual dining with a fancy view= this very place. Expect a wait during weekend lunch hours. The tacos are small but reasonably priced, so you can get 4-5 around $10-$12.50. The street corn is so good. Will definitely come back for more fun casual gatherings and enjoying the view- I bet the summer it will be more busy! 🌽🥑🌮
Great food and solid drinks. We had a great time ordering family-style!
Great Time, Nice Selection of Tacos. Very Busy Friday & Saturday and worth the wait. ENJOY...
A meal I’ll be dreaming about for days. Let’s start with the Tuna Poke. Drooling just thinking about it. Then we got a plethora of tacos (Asian Taco pictured) and I feel like each bite got better and better. We ended with churros (pictured) and we couldn’t leave a crumb on the table. And then on top of it, service is great, shout out to our server Danielle!! Thanks for a great evening...we will be back MANY times!
The tappas concept followed by clean new atmosphere is working great however, this also means crowds. If you dont mind this, are looking for a new place to explore with reasonable prices then give it a try.
Ate here twice. Food is amazing. I love the Empanadas, plantains & chicken tacos. Yum
Beautiful space, great music, cool ambiance BUT bland food. I really really wanted to like this place but unfortunately I couldn’t! My tacos (4 different kinds) were so bland with an exception of the Korean rib, I had to ask for salt because there wasn’t any at my table. Our waitress Amber was super sweet. The guac was so fresh but had no salt and the fresh onions they put on as a garnish was too overpowering. However, if you find yourself here ORDER THE EMPANADAS! The most flavorful item on the menu that I tried. Oh and the “street corn” was a mix of sour cream and mayo instead of original Mexican crema which is what should be used on actual elotes (Mexican street corn). We couldn’t finish the corn and Amber graciously removed them from our bill. Please season your cod before battering it, it would make a world of difference! I probably won’t be returning.
Excellent food, service, and views. My picky kids loved the quesadilla, taco, and corn on the cob! Our favorite taco was the Korean short rib. Street corn off the cob was amazing. Thank you for the military discount! Kids loved seeing the train go by and we loved the view of the Hudson.
Good food (but not great). Hip atmosphere, industrial decor. It was a good experience overall. Think street tacos...everything is sold a la carte, smallish portions but reasonably priced. Similar in theme to Port Chesters Bar Taco, but doesnt have the same Baja feel to it. The bar was on point...the drinks had a unique flourish and delightfully potent. Waitress was fantastic. I cant remember her name but it was the best service my wife and I had in years.
This place is a great place to go to for tacos! So many choices, and they were all good!
Hudson taco is now one of our favorite places to go. The food was excellent and the atmosphere was very cool. We ordered a multitude of tacos and our favorite so far is the Korean beef and brisket tacos. Although the general Tao taco was amazing too.
Hudson Taco is AWESOME!!!!I was in a party of 5 and we all loved what we had to eat. The drinks were on point, the staff were friendly and attentive. Highly recommend!
Omg! Best tacos Ive ever had. Fried chicken or shishito & mushroom tacos are out of their world.
It may have been that this is my first time in a restaurant in MONTHS …. But the experience at Hudson Taco was PERFECT. We were spaced out, masks on through door to seats, servers masked, the tables and booths were wiped between customers leaving AND THE FOOD WAS INCREDIBLE. Delicious, fresh, savory, tangy, food and excellent drinks…in a big beautiful rehabbed train depot…on the water. The food is divine!!! It’s a bar/2 tv’s set up, with booths, tables and big windows to the water view. Contemporary and welcoming. We are definitely going back. Well done, HT!
Every time I come here it’s never a disappointment. Food and drinks are always great!
Nice atmosphere and view. Good service. Good menu. Fav taco was shaved ribeye and Korean bbq. Good drinks. Plenty of tequila.
Nice atmosphere. Friendly and attentive service by everyone we interacted with. My wife and I each had 5 tacos and a few appetizers. Everything tasted fabulous!Good beer selection (Sloop Juice Bomb Rules!) and I had the 123 tequila flight for dessert. Looking forward to our next visit.
The fish tacos are the BOMB!! Loved the guac and green salsa! Cant wait to come back!!
Great service and tasty taco. SorryBut the beef and cheese empanada was the best! We had a 6 to 7 different tacos Korean beef was the best and the shrimp was too fishy a taste for me. I will come back again. The decor was very nice, open, and welcoming.
Was here last night for my 2nd time in a long time, and I dont know why I didnt get back sooner. Everything here was on point. Sat at the bar, ordered a ton of goodies, drinks, and the bartenders are awesome! Get here and dont wait like I did, well be back real soon no doubt.
A+ the tacos were made to Perfection and the Margaritas hit the spot! Naviance is cozy and comfortable.
Amazing, mind (taste buds) blowing food. Small portions. Expensive. Dont come here when you are starving unless you are prepared to wait an hour plus and spend a lot of money. But then again, the food is AMAZING!
I didnt ate here, but next door, at the pizza place, however, it was disappointing going there and find out that all the outdoors dining area belongs to Hudson Taco, but bot to the Pizza Shop, which turns out to have printed everywhere PIZZA SHOP, as seen in the pictures, not Hudson Taco.Great pizza, bad signage.
Marcella was our server and she was the best! Her recommendations were amazing, we had such a good time there! All the staff was super amazing and the restaurant itself is super cute!
Our go to place in Newburgh! Excellent vibe, yummy seasonal as well as traditional cocktails and very tasty eats with beautiful views of the Hudson river. Served small plate sized so you can get a taste of everything or customize to your liking. Food comes out as its ready from the kitchen so dont expect everything you ordered to come out at once. The dessert churrosare a fun treat with both chocolate and raspberry dipping sauces.
Nice selection of tacos very tasty but on the small side. I would def go back........😋😋
This place is as busy as it is for a reason! Food is awesome and affordable, drinks are excellent too. Paul is an amazing manager who is super accommodating!!
Always an amazing experience! Great atmosphere, always great playlist of music, food always comes out fast and tastes delicious. I always look forward to coming to Hudson Taco!
Food was AMAZING!! The tuna poke bowl was absolutely delicious and FRESH!! The beef empanadas… I’m thinking we’re better than mine lol ((and mine are delicious)) def was a pleasure eating and drinking here looking forward to going back!
Atmosphere is amazing. Seriously the high ceilings and huge window giving a view to the Hudson River are breath taking. The waitress was attentive and the food came to our table in a timely manner. The street corn and chips and guac I would certainly recommend. Also, I think their empanadas are real good. However, I was disappointed with their tacos. The soft shell was very chewy and did not taste fresh or authentic. Id definitely give this spot a second chance to explore the menu some more.
Fun experience. Family style serving was very original and the variety of different tacos to try all delicious!
Food, drinks and atmosphere was amazing.
Great food and drink in a fun location. We live over an hour away, but well be back for sure.
Friendly staff, food is very good. Views of the Hudson River are amazing. Restaurant is very busy and wait for a table is usually rather long
Love this place! The tuna poke bowl is fabulous, guacamole is excellent and the views of the Hudson River are great.
Great Tacos, Fast Service, Great Decor and all with a view! What more can you ask for?
Had a great table over looking the river. Very friendly and open atmosphere. They explained the menu and ordering thoroughly. Was very good food, from the ponzu salmon, hudson pork, and delicious desserts.
Staff was very accommodating and nice. The short rib bowl with brown rice was 🔥🔥 Amazingly great. The empanadas were also good.
Absolutely delicious. Reminds me of bartaco with the tapas-style of tacos. Very high quality ingredients and bold flavors.
Food was very good. But so loud we couldnt hear the waitress.
Great food and the hostess at the door are very friendly and welcoming. If your at Pure Terror Scream Park in the fall you should check this place out.its only about a 20 minute drive from the haunt.
I cant say enough good things about this place. Everything is amazing, try it all! So so good. & Staff is extremely friendly!
Loved this place before the pandemic. But they can’t seem to get orders right. This time they graciously gave me a second meal when the first was wrong, but then even that order, again asked for sauce on the side, was drenched in the sauce… Food is inconsistent: One week tacos are packed, the next it’s an expensive barely two biter, that is if they pack them all. Time to explore some alternative taco places in area.
Excellent! Fresh! Clean! Great tacos with different flavors.....perfect sides. Wonderful bar, beverages, service, music, crowd, atmosphere! Those Buffalo Oyster tacos.....you got me! Perfect.
Great tacos. Terrible churros. Ordered them multiple times with no luck.
Beautiful view, excellent service, kid friendly,& food/drinks awesome!
Delicious. Went early so didnt get a margarita but enjoyed everything. 4 tacos is the perfect amount.
Yasssss. The drinks are amazing and so is the food. They play great music and the staff is very friendly. The best time to visit is happy hour. The tacos are very small so order more than 2. That tequila flight though. Oh man is that so good. Will return time and time again.
Really amazing. Fun, experimental, and innovative cuisine. Highly recommended and definitely my favorite waterfront spot.
Great atmosphere! My kids loved the music. I would give the overall all customer experience 5 stars. Our Waitress Tenaj walked us through the menu along with her recommendations. She Provided her insight on their vegetarian options for my daughter. This was our first time and it will not be our last time.Order plenty of tacos as the tacos are small. Reason why I gave it a 4 instead of 5, they should have the prime rib taco as part of their menu instead of a special. This was the best taco on the menu.
Wow these are the best tacos ever. Perfect size with a various selection. Great place, it’s clean and friendly with awesome background music. Menu was tasty with French press coffee to boot. I highly recommend this place.
Deliciousness. The food , ambiance, drinks were all good. Will definitely be going back
Outstanding. The Korean BBQ taco and street corn were my favorites, excellent margaritas.
This was my first time here and I loved it. Food and drinks was so damn good. Had to buy some food to go including a pizza pie which was damn good. Worth going to spend your money here. I highly recommend this place. I will be returning a few times 😁😁
What a great spot! Staff is really friendly and the food is awesome. I lived in SD and got to experience authentic mexican and this place reminds me of one of my favorite spots over there. Great modern flavor combinations for the tacos. Reasonable prices. Tacos are small but just more reason to order all the kinds you want to try. Mexican street corn could have used more mayo or butter but otherwise tasty. The margs were delicious. Desserts were also pretty tasty. I saw towards the end they had Agua Fresca, which are my favorite. Definitely going to have to try that next time. Dont expect to come in here for your typical nasty tex mex. This place is way better and anyone whos experienced street tacos would agree although they are on the smaller side.
Great fresh food, awesome staff. Super COOL atmosphere. The view is superb.
Food is great, service is excellent, and the place has a good atmosphere. The tacos are small so youll need a few to make a meal, but it also gives you a chance to try a variety. I had the Korean BBQ bowl which was tasty but not very spicy. Would definitely eat there again.
The tacos are delicious, and the drinks are phenomenal! Hands down the best empanadas I’ve had. Both the interior and exterior of the restaurant are beautiful!
Place is very well put together, staff is great, music is amazing. This is more of a tapas place to get a quick eat but nonetheless the food is really good. Drinks are a little pricey but well worth it! Definetely coming here again. Just dont expect to get seated right away on a weekend :-) the wait is at least 1-2 hours!
Excellent service by the whole staff. Delicious, varied food served remarkably quickly and efficiently. Lots of interesting flavors. Great grapefruit mojito and suggested tap beer. Terrific decor synnergysed perfectly the dynamic ambiance. Thank you for a great experience from a taco-savvy southern Californias crew :)
Had the Shrimp Ceviche ($11.00) and it was incredibly fresh and well made: the ingredients are citrus, tomato and serrano aguachile, olives, onions, avocado and a ton of cut up small shrimp. They serve it with free tostada sized totopos (chips) that are perfect for putting the shrimp ceviche on. I add some of their super fresh and tasty guacamole and thats a meal. If you like shrimp you will love this dish. Highly recommended.Gluten FreeUpdate 4/12/22: Had Papis chicken, a rotissierie chicken spiced and cooked perfectly. It made my tummy feel better as I have been suffering from some stomach ailment. Got fresh cut, sweet pineapple and the always incredibly fresh and delicious guacamole. You should, too!
I enjoyed everything I tasted. We shared the guacamole+chips appetizer. The tacos are small and have soft shells (mini burrito-like), not the type youd get from taco bell. I had 3 different kinds of taco plus an empanada and a drink. I was sufficiently full without feeling overly stuffed. I definitely recommend the beef empanada- it was delicious!!
Food and drinks were absolutely delicious. Service was fantastic too!
Had a great time, food and service was good, nice view. It was very busy but there was a big staff on hand. Have to go back when its nice out again so we can sit outside.
Wish I could give this place 10 stars! Very similar to Bartaco in lower NY & CT but 10x better. Food is extremely fresh and prompt service. They have a pet friendly patio too with heat lamps. One thing to keep in mind though is that its right by the train tracks so it can be a little noisy at times but it has an incredible view so its worth it.
This is 4 Hudson Toco....Im rewriting this Re view Because after leaving the Hudson Toco and getting booted for the 3rd time in 2 months and I truly try to give people the benefit of a doubt...But the manager did hook me up with nice chicken breast... So instead of 1 star I give them or him 3...😇
Service and food is great, however 4 stars because you cant make reservations here. We waited at Billy Joes bar for an hour where we got drinks and appatizers before hand
Tacos were good but the dish with a huge pile of guacamole and corn, surrounded by three burned shrimp did not convince me.
WARNING ⛔️ DO NOT ENTER!!!!With a name like “Hudson TACOS” you would think at least they would make their corn tortillas fresh, but everything was frozen and and tasteless. Well, unless you like the taste of lettuce wrapped in a rubbery microwave flour tortilla with just a hint of the TAPAS because that’s what the menu said.Also, BEWARE if you have a food allergy because the servers don’t listen when ordering.Save your hard earn money and go to a real authentic Hispanic restaurant you will find better tasting food and your bill will be half the price.
The food was absolutely amazing, I would recommend the cola pork tacos and Korean short rib tacos. The street corn was so delicious too! The only complaint I have was that the grilled octopus has this weird mash of tomatoes and lobster beneath the skewers. The lobster was not good, but the octopus itself was tasty and tender just too overpriced for two skewers on a weird mash of other stuff.
This is the coolest spot! We met Paul, the manager, who is amazing, friendly, and down to earth. He checked in on us and mades sure that our experience was wonderful. The service was impeccable- everyone was friendly, helpful, and attentive. The food deserves every star! It is fresh, delish, and filling. Anytime we are in the area, this is our spot!
Extremely loud environment, the music is BLASTING IN here and it’s so difficult trying to have a conversation without screaming over the pop music.The food is pretty good but for the price it is really not worth it…the tacos are one bite and gone. The “entrees” they have as well are bowls and etcetera, which are super small as well, about enough to fit in my very small hand. I think all the food is a little overpriced and the environment is suffocating so not a great date or small group location.I really like that the way is order is by paper and pencil at the table, scan a code for the menu, and the waitress will pick up the paper when you put the card in a holder. For people with social anxiety this is great. Overall not a place I would return to unless I was really craving fusion tacos.
Cant wait to go back and try more!!Music was a bit loud for me, but otherwise wonderful much experience !
First time trying Hudson Taco. Very good food!!!! Everything I tried was amazing.
BEST FREAKING TACOS! lol but seriously, all the choices I picked were flavorful and delicious. The atmosphere and service is a great bonus.
I drove more than an hour to get to this place and was not disappointed. Our waitress was very attentive and accommodating. I tried a few tacos and think the best ones were the Cola Pork Carnitas, Mushroom and Shishito, Korean BBQ Shortrib, and Citrus Shrimp Taco.Please order the corn salad, which is a generous portion and the fried sweet plantains....which were the best ones I have had in my life.. and I had a bunch.
1 hour and 45 wait to be seated when the place closes in two hours is some crazy number. I had to pass. Maybe the place is just that good. But they don’t even have a bar area where you can sit and wait for your table. Make sure you make reservations if you want to visit. Will try them again and update this review. Maybe I’ll be able to eat this time.5/22 updateOk this is my update. The food is very good. We had like 15 tacos. Some were better than the others, but overall they were all good. And the service is good as well. Our waiter was very relaxed and attentive. Eating next to the huge open windows with views of the Hudson is a plus. The only downside is the cargo trains passing by every 10 minutes. We were there for about an hour and 5 trains passed by. Some with construction debris. But I guess that is something they can’t control.
Very good,quick,fresh and delicious. Great staff,great view too
All the food waa great. At forst seemed like very small portions but were fulfilling. Ordered the large guacamole to share between my wife and I.She ordered 4 tacos (they are small: 2- Baja fish, 1- chicken, and 1 mushroom veg) and a paradose margerota with sugar on the rim.I ordered the korean bbq bowl over quinoa. Side order of plantains and finished it with a Wicked Witch Stout beer on tap.Service and food were great.
This is the biggest upside surprise of any restaurant we have visited on the East Coast this year. The food and service were so good we forgot to take photos 📸. Stand outs are the Guac, the charred curried corn salad the Koren BBQ Taco [my wifes contribution 😋] and the mushrooms and 🌶 taco. However everything was at least very good. Will go back soon to add photos and variety to this review. Oh, and order the Churros or miss out on heaven on earth.
The loveliest place. The manager Paul is the sweetest and him and the staff went out of their way to make our party feel welcomed. The food is great. The views are amazing.
The place has a very nice look. However, the chicken tacos we ordered were surprisingly small and had little imagination. It seemed it was just chopped chicken, some diced onions and thats it from what I could tell. Just no flavor. The guacamole was decent with partly stale chips. Lastly, sitting at the bar you have to contend with the fruit flies as your unwelcome guests. Nice views and the design of the place is pretty cool.
This was amazing! First off the vibe was so good. Service was also great. We went with our family of 7 (5 kids) and the menu was able to cater to each child. I have children with allergies so it was nice to see a menu that they can equally enjoy. It was our first time there tonight and I already told my husband this wont be the last time. Great job guys!
Awsome place.Perfect location Great Food. Best chill out place for motorcycle riders for lunch.
Food was pretty good. View on their open patio was amazing. However, I probably will not be back because Hudson Taco decided to charge more than I authorized (a little less than $2 difference) on my credit card. So beware when visiting this place!

2022-05-25Hudson Taco is an excellent restaurant located right in the Hudson Valley. This establishment is very conveniently located with ample parking available. Next door there’s an Ice cream and pizza shop. Definitely have to try those next time I’m in the area. The ambiance is stunning with a modern home like feel. Sitting on the back porch area allows breathtaking views of the Hudson River and the train track right below the restaurant. Staff are very attentive and friendly! They explained how the ordering process worked since it was our first time here. Food was delicious and fresh, it’s very affordable as well! On the other hand, It’s usually packed and they don’t take reservations so prepare to wait on the weekends. Definitely stop by if wanting to try yummy tacos and pleasurable atmosphere!!

2022-05-21First time at Hudson Taco and I was not disappointed. It got very busy right after we arrived, probably partially due to the graduation weekend. Nonetheless, the service was speedy and excellent. For my comfort level, it got a bit too noisy for a good conversation.Food and drinks were great, I’ll be back!

2022-07-05Tasty tacos, and nice to have interesting ethnic variations like Korean BBQ (delish) as well as gluten free options served as lettuce wraps instead of tortillas. Margaritas were also tasty and views of the Hudson were a bonus. Even though we sat along the open windows on the patio facing the river, it was still quite loud. Prices were just right, too.

2022-05-05This was such a fun and scrumptious meal! The taco fillings were glazed with all sorts of flavors...some savory and some sweet. Everything we ordered got better and better as they were brought out. I recommend you taste it all!

2022-04-10Great time and omg food comes so quick including the drink. We actually never waited more than 5 min for anything except for the table.On a Saturday noon hour, we hang out at the bar for over a hour and it is an amazing time. Good vibe with the bar setting and attentive bartenders. The drinks are strong as well as delicious. I got tipsy after a quarter of the margarita. Guc and chip is very well portion but definitely could use some lime and salt.For a table of 8, we got out table after a hour waiting for everyone to get there. We enjoy the pork belly taco the most. About any taco is just as delicious.

2022-02-15Great environment in the dining area, the sunroom tables right next to the train tracks, and its a fun surprise when the train runs by.They have Friendly, very fast service and the food was quite good. We were seated fast during the busy late lunch seating even as we were a party of 8.The street corn was off the charts good. It had great spice and a silky sweet taste in every bite. Too much of my surprise, I enjoyed more of the Asian cuisine-style tacos than I did the traditional ones. I thought the carnitas, chicken, and asada were good but no better than Ive had at other places. The Chinese pork belly, general tsos, and Korean BBQ tacos were incredible. Highly recommended.

2022-03-10Tacos are fresh and yummy. Friendly, efficient staff provide fast service. Cocktails are fabulous. Atmosphere is vibrant and the crowd very diverse in every possible way.. which makes a great relaxing vibe. Music is incredible. I keep telling the hostess that a Thursday night pre-weekend mixer with music and bar service only from 11pm-1:30am —is the way to go. A small cover-charge would be worth the ambiance.

2022-05-06I absolutely love this place. The drinks are good the tacos even better and the maduros with the plantain aioli was amazing. Happy hour prices are good, the crowd is energetic, music is good with great salsa and you will leave with a very full stomach and a smile on your face

2022-02-07Amazing food and great service. It can get a little busy, especially around dinnertime so get there early or just hang out cause its definitely worth waiting for. Small portions so you can try lots of different things. Its a little pricey but definitely worth it, great very tastey food and very good drinks too. Definitely reccomend trying this place out if you havent before, its worth it!
