Our server, Jeffro, was AMAZING!!! He was engaging, friendly and made my daughter's birthday very special (he even carded her when she ordered a drink since she was turning 21). He also worked with the kitchen to create a vegan meal for me (veggie stir fry... delicious!). He made connections with each of us in the short time we were there. I will only eat at Hudson 29 again if I can have him working with our table. Oh yeah, and the food was fabulous too.

A great place to relax with a nice bottle of wine (or beer or cocktail) with friends (or date or spouse) along with exceptional food. We split the cheese plate and follow with entrée salads. The popcorn is a fun appetizer. Our server, Blagoi, is always attentive and we appreciate his wine recommendations.

Our ladies group had the best time at dinner at J. Liu’s. We had two servers and they were both attentive and quick with a drink refill or anything needed. The food came out fast and everything was delicious. Don’t sleep on their happy hour. It is a great deal and on Wednesdays it goes until 9pm. All of the appetizers we got on the happy hour were delicious, and honestly that could have been my dinner. Another note that we really appreciated, they were quick to clean up plates that were finished. I always appreciate when the service cleans up right away, you don’t find that everywhere. I know we will be going back!
