Domaine Hudson

Excellent cuisine! The service is a team effort but Rick was knowledge, courteous, and made you feel like your at home. Get the price fixed menu. It works almost the same as a la carte. Brian Cooper, the chef, perfects and prepared the food we had with an eye not to over flavor the food. A great dining experience. We will be back!!

Service was the redeeming characteristic - waiter was knowledgeable and attentive. Noise level was awful - could not have a conversation with my husband without yelling. In short, this place was a huge let down. My husband and I enjoy bright and tasty dishes cooked with love, not precisely constructed plates lacking soul. Overall, the food was meh, especially considering the price. Many of the dishes could have benefited from a little salt and pepper, but there weren't any shakers on the tables. Visually, the dishes were amazing (which is the other reason this isn't a 1 star review), but the gigantic plates and tiny portions of under-seasoned or misconceived food were a huge disappointment. The martini and Manhattan drinks we ordered were great. The opening bread course had a lengthy description for the butter, but it was essentially just salty and sweet. The bread was tasty on its own. My apple and green salad was delicious, definitely a great start to the meal. However, my husband's scotch egg was mediocre - lacking in some basic seasoning. The gnocchi were light, fluffy, tasteless and grainy. Using the carrot tops for the gnocchi is a cute idea, but just didn't work well. The sauce and carrots with it were decent. My husband's agnolotti were delicious, but the broth had no flavor and the mushrooms/truffles seemed like a way to add something without bringing anything worthwhile. My fish of the day was great - although they missed removing some of the bones and it was an unwelcome surprise. My husband's rabbit was overcooked and bland. The desserts were awful. My pecan pie tasted like the bottom of a molasses barrel and had almost no pecan flavor because of the overpowering burnt molasses. My husband's chocolate ganache could have been reproduced with a Snack Pack and a bunch of chocolate-covered espresso beans. The photo below typifies the entire meal: over-large plate, over-done plating, over-small food, it will just leave you wanting more...of something else.

New American menu. The food was great. Extensive wine list. The customer service was very pleasant. Ambiance was good. The atmosphere was good however, the seating was too close to each other. You almost cannot have a private conversation. The Decor was OK, nothing special. But overall, this is one of the better fine dinning experience in the area.

Happened in based on Google reviews. Extensive wine list, excellent service, eclectic menu, delicious food. A bit pricey, but worth it. We loved everything we ordered. Trust the chef, the menu doesn't always sound like it's going to be good - or at least that the ingredients would go together - but they do and it is delectable.
