Ordering from each section of the menu won't leave you disappointed, we are very excited to go back and try the other menu offerings. 10/10 meal, service, and atmosphere, we'll be back again.”

“We were out and about in Hudson today and we were a little hungry so we stopped into kitties and I had probably one of the best egg sandwiches I ever had. I highly recommend the egg sandwich with sauerkraut. The vibe in there was very comfortable iced coffee Was nice and strong. They had a great bakery selection and a lot of local products. So if you’re coming out of the train station in Hudson, I say swing by kitties you won’t be sorry.”

“Great place and food is great”

“Via Cassia in Hudson is one of those restaurants that people whisper about. The kind of place that consistently lands on “best restaurant in America” lists and books out weeks in advance — for good reason.

Chef and co-owner Gaetano Arnone, alongside his wife and partner Meigan Arnone, brings serious pedigree to the Hudson Valley. Arnone’s time as Chef de Cuisine at Babbo Ristorante and Executive Chef at Otto immediately caught my attention. Babbo, in my opinion, was the first Italian fine-dining restaurant in New York that truly made fine dining feel cool — sophisticated but unstuffy, with interiors and food that worked in perfect harmony.

So naturally, I was thrilled when I finally cleared the waitlist and secured a 7pm reservation.

After a full day exploring the Hudson Valley with my brother, we sat down excited to dive in. Unfortunately, my body had other plans. Something I ate earlier in the day decided it wasn’t staying put — and I found myself sprinting to the restroom before our first appetizer even arrived. Not exactly the Via Cassia experience I had envisioned.

We quickly pivoted, packed up our salad and pasta dishes to-go, cancelled our entrée, and called it a night. I left the server a $50 gratuity for the trouble and walked out deeply disappointed — mostly because I knew I was missing something special.

The silver lining? The food we took home was fantastic.
The Insalata Via Cassia with Radicchio Castelfranco, Trevisano, toasted almonds, and Parmigiano Reggiano was vibrant and beautifully balanced. The Spaghetti Aglio Olio e Peperoncino with roasted garlic and Calabrian chilis was simple Italian cooking at its best — bold, clean, and deeply satisfying. And my brother ate the Bucatini all’Amatriciana with guanciale and pecorino was exactly what you want from the dish: rich, comforting, and perfectly executed.

So yes — technically my Via Cassia dinner ended before it even began. But based on what I tasted, I’m convinced the hype is real.

Next time, I’ll arrive a little hungrier… and skip breakfast and lunch entirely.”

“Today a Was the first time we had ordered from you we were very happy with the person that took the order we had quite a large amount and order andoorder and the food was great and it only took 20 minutes thank you for your time and great food we will be back again we only live around the corner”

“I ordered dinner last night since it was too hot to cook and everything was really good. Their sauce is fantastic! I got a chicken parm sub that was full of chicken and the best chicken parm I've ever had. We always get the vegan pizza for my boyfriend. It's awesome that they have that option(even if it doesn't have vegan cheese.) And they always give a ton of fried dough. They give you plenty of food and it all tastes fresh and amazing 👏”

“Literally some of the best beer I’ve ever had in my life and I’ve had a lot of beer. Beautiful tap room and humble owners and caretakers of this fine establishment. You’re crazy if you disagree.”

“This restaurant is exceptional in every capacity! I'm hardly a foodie; I eat very simple foods during the week (eggs, real butter, olive oil, buttermilk, whey protein, Greek yogurt, etc), so when I go out to eat, I seek both a nutritious menu, more extensive meals of variety, while allowing myself to indulge too. Everything about this restaurant is excellent, and I highly recommend it! I was there Late Afternoon on Sunday, which I concluded to be an ideal time to go. Continued Success, and Thank You!”

“Alleyway ice cream is truly a whole in the wall hidden gem . My wife and I discovered it today while wandering Saugerties . The ice cream is out this world and they have beautiful patio sitting area for you to enjoy your ice cream .”

“Got the Italian sub amazing I would but it again it’s so good and when u order it’s fast”

“This place is the best around the owner and Chef are top-notch. I highly recommend this place.”

“I haven't had a bad meal here. Portions are great,staff is extremely friendly, and food is great. I usually get Eggs Benedict and honestly they do it right,best EB have had anywhere. I always stop here when I am in town. I live about an hour from here and stop whenever I'm in town. Sometimes I'll just go and not have any business. Highly recommended 👌”

“We had a hard time finding the place at first. but we're glad we did. :) Good beer, good vibe and the food was delicious. We had a smashburger and fries, the deviled eggs, and the hand cut chicken bites which I loved and were served with the tastiest ranch sauce I've ever had. Will definitely come back again next time we're in the area.”

“Its a great restaurant to try some of the best cuisine in Catskill, people at the counter are so nice, supportive and friendly. Inside environment is also wonderful and great. We loved this place.”

“This place is amazing. The dry aged steak is on par with any of Manhattan's best steakhouses. Every bit of food was fresh and delicious, and the presentation was perfect. The portions were very generous. The atmosphere was bright and cheerful. The staff were friendly, efficient, and knowledgeable. The chef owner, Jeff, came out to greet us and make sure we were enjoying everything. Everything was perfect. The experience here is how every restaurant experience should be.”

“The dinner parties are amazing but I'm obsessed with the vibe of Sunday service. I truly was not interested in eating anything else after visiting this place. Inspiring!!”

“We had a most extraordinary Sunday brunch at The Maker Cafe yesterday. We were there by chance, around 1 pm, and are so glad we found this lovely spot with a most attentive staff. We're not spring chickens, and we much appreciated the help getting seated, the delicious butternut squash soup, the fabulous eggplant alla parmgiana sandwich, the broccoli salad. Thanks to you all - we loved it, and we look forward to coming to the restaurant some evening soon.”

“Tommy whipped up delicious Old Fashions, kept us entertained, and was quick with service and assistance. He’s a 10/10 bartender- knowledgeable, talented, and fun! Awesome drinks, vibes, and service.”

“Just amazing! I make to visit whenever I’m in town. 💗”
