P.J. Clarke's On The Hudson

“We had a really good experience at P.J. Clarke’s On The Hudson. The place itself is very nice and the staff was extremely attentive throughout our visit. The Cadillac Burger was definitely the highlight — absolutely delicious. The only downside was the noise level. It was very, very loud inside, probably because of the lunchtime rush, but it did make conversation a bit difficult at times. Other than that, a great spot and we’d definitely come back.”

“The view may be temporarily blocked by construction, but don’t let that stop you from going. The food more than makes up for it. The bartender burger was honestly one of the best burgers I’ve ever had. Perfectly cooked, flavorful, and the kind of meal you keep thinking about afterward. The burger trio is also a great option if you want to try a little bit of everything. And whatever you order, get the fries. No exceptions. They’re crispy, addictive, and easily one of the standout parts of the meal. Service was friendly, the atmosphere was relaxed, and the bathrooms were clean and well maintained. Once the construction clears up, I’m sure the view will be a huge bonus, but the food alone already makes this place worth visiting.”

“PJ's was the perfect spot for our Valentine's Day date! We were worried about holiday crowds, but the staff was so organized. Our drinks came out fast and the food (fish fry and sliders) was delicious. If you're looking for a spot that is reliable, friendly, and fast even on a busy weekend, this is it. Great drinks, great food, and amazing service!”

“I have walked past this place so many times and always wanted to go in. My family and I ate lunch here after celebrating my graduation. The service was a bit slow. Our waiter went missing for a decent amount of time and we sat there with no drinks for over 30 mins. We sat outside which is why we really enjoyed the atmosphere. The lobster roll was so good. Would come back with friends for a happy hour.”

“So PJ’s location is fantastic, it’s right by the marina in Battery Park City and you couldn’t ask for better views or people watching. It’s perfect for a group after work. The place is huge so it’s great for a big group. The food is marginal. There can be good ingredients but it’s prepared at an industrial scale and the price is for the location not the taste. I’ve lived here twenty years.. it’s always been like this. My favorite thing is the chicken salad, really… and my favorite food in general is shellfish but I usually skip it here. If you want to hang out by the water and have some snacks that are a secondary reason for being there it’s a good spot.”
