What People Are Saying About P.J. Clarke's on the Hudson
The Editor

In Short – Financial types are drawn to this World Financial Center site for its convenient and picturesque location, where Hudson River breezes and a Lady Liberty view can be enjoyed from the sizeable outdoor cafe. The equally sprawling interior replicates the 120-year-old original's pubby feel with red-and-white checked tablecloths, blackboards, and wood-blinded windows. Indoors and out, suits and ties tuck into comfort classics like fish-and-chips, burgers, mac and cheese and steaks before catching commuter ferries home.

Decent beer and service, terrible food
by lizzyred8 at Citysearch
Stopped in for dinner after a long day of shopping. Food was extremely disappointing. The buffalo chicken sandwich seemed to be something other than chicken, and the chicken pot-pie was comparable to dog food. Left quite hungry and made a stop at Ciao Bella.
- Pros: Beer
- Cons: Food

Not the place I used to know!
by czarnowica at Citysearch
I am a long time fan and customer of the original PJ Clarkes' on Third Avenue - this one is a sad ghost of its predecessor. I have no complaints about the quaity of the food - but the skimpy way the food is presented (imagine serving a cheeseburger without any lettuce, tomoto or a pickle!) leaves much to be desired. I guess the Wall Streeters who frequent this spot are not as into "getting down" into their burgers, but then again, at least a good quality of beef is served here. We should all thank God that at least soy burgers have not yet made it to the menu, but it would be a better place if it were a bit more "pub" and a lot less yuppie. This place has no character - it's no different than any other upscale faux pub in NY!
- Pros: Right on NY harbor - great views, but don't go on a weekend!
- Cons: Yuppie heaven!

Only recommended for the bar prior to Lincoln Center
by camy123 at Citysearch
Went here for dinner prior to ballet at Lincoln Center. Food is truly terrible, and not that cheap for the quality. Crab cakes (average), filet of sole (sauce was gross maple syrup!!), mussels (sandy, below average)-white wine butter sauce was good tho; house pinot grigio -below average.
It does have a great view though and is convenient to Lincoln Center. The bar was crowded with 30s-50s year olds, nice looking crowd. Our waitress was from Ireland and extremely nice.
- Pros: Service, location, view
- Cons: FOOD, wine list
