HUDSON RESTAURANT WEEK:
January 28 – February 8, 2008
Put aside those New Year’s Resolutions and take a break to visit restaurants in the area for Hudson Restaurant Week. The dining promotion returns for the fourth winter from next Monday January 28 through February 8, 2008. There are 33 restaurants this time including 8 new restaurants that have never participated before: Hudson Tavern, City Vino, Azucar, East LA, Gaslight, Harsimus Cove, Ox and Sawadee. There are a variety of price points to choose from – prix-fixe lunches range from $13-18 and dinners from $23-35 (excluding beverages, tax and gratuity).
Although Restaurant Week is usually Mon-Fri many are offering it over the weekend and if you’re not watching the Big Game on Feb 3rd – might be a good day to try a new restaurant.
The list of restaurants in Hoboken are:
- 3Forty Grill
- Amanda’s
- Arthur’s Tavern
- Black Bear
- Brass Rail
- East LA
- Elysian Café
- Gaslight
- Hudson Tavern
- Madison
- Nine
- Quays
- Sushi Lounge
- Trinity
Also check out an even more diverse list of restaurants in Jersey City, Union City & North Bergen!
Visit HudsonRestaurantweek.com for all the menus and exact price points.
Bon Appetit!

Does “restaurant week” automatically entail the cessation of all happy hour pricing? I’ve been to two places that had these “Restaurant Week” fliers out and both said no HH specials.
Hudson Tavern is an overpriced POS by the way…which puts it in a category with the majority of that list.

Check out all the great prix-fixe deals. I think you can save up to a dollar per couple at some of these places.

While I agree that most of these are bars that serve food and there really is no ‘discount’ or incentive to go to them during ‘restaurant week’, but there are a few decent options on there.. In particular, Edwards, over in jersey city…. Nice place, and very comfy atmosphere… You get a 3 course meal there, which is a good value for $70 for two people… Or they are offering a deal with a porterhouse for 2 for $95 I think…

In an effort to try a new dining establishment, I went to Azucar last night.
After having to ask for the restaurant week menu, I decided that what they had to offer didn’t really whet my appetite. I’m also not really a dessert person and hence thought that the prix fixe wasn’t really worth it. I did wind up ordering from the ‘regular’ menu and found it very tasty. Our server was also very friendly and attentive w/o being overbearing.
It was a bit on the pricey side however, and we pretty much paid the same we would have had we taken ‘advantage’ of the ‘discounted’ menu. I guess our drinks took the place of dessert that we would’ve gotten.

YEAH…HCRW is a joke. I bet I can get better meals at less of a price during NON HCRWs.
$95 for steak for 2 people with no booze????…how is that a deal??? Going anywhere Non-BYOB in Hoboken is silly.
The only two non BYOB restaurants I can think of, that are worth it…
Arthurs ($12 for a bottle or red) and Elysian

Amanda’s has a great and reasonable wine list too.

I guess it’s just a way to attract and overcharge suckers from the burbs. As a resident of Hoboken I don’t need to be told that we have restaurants here (I already know) and I don’t need a “special feast menu” like they give you on Mulberry Street during San Generro…$30 linguine & clam sauce…
Sorry to be so negative on this, but I don’t like paying MORE than usual during a promotion.

Arthurs is the only Hoboken restaurant that is any sort of good deal…
Why spend $35 at Trinity for Restaurant week when their normal everyday Prix Fixe dinner is only $25?! Same with Madison and their $35 restuarant dinner, where their normal prix fixe is $16.

If you’ve spent $10 for food at Arthurs you’ve been overcharged. Their food is crap IMO.
