Dinner before the Hudson
The Hudson asks guests to arrive 50 minutes before the performance, so these times leave earlier than they would for most theaters. From our rooftop at 605 W 48th St, it's about 20 min on foot, or a short cab. Tacos, margaritas and a live DJ first, then the show.

Before the curtain
At the door
The Hudson encourages guests to arrive 50 minutes before the performance for security, and late seating is at the discretion of management. We plan for you to be there 30 minutes before curtain, or earlier if the theater asks.
Late seating is up to the theater, so leave yourself room. Tell your server you have a show when you sit down.
Closed Mondays. Tuesday to Thursday, last reservation 10pm. Tables are held for 90 minutes.
The Hudson: dinner questions
How far is the Hudson from Cantina Rooftop?
About 20 min on foot from our door at 605 W 48th St, or a short cab. Hudson Theatre is at 141 W 44th St.
When should I book dinner before a 7pm show at the Hudson?
Book the 5:00 pm table and leave by 5:50 pm. That has you at the door 30 minutes before curtain or earlier, if the theater asks. Book a table.
What about a matinee?
On a Saturday with a 2pm show, sit down for brunch at 12:00 pm and leave by 12:50 pm. We don't serve lunch on weekdays, so for a Wednesday matinee, come up for dinner afterward: we open at 5pm.
Can we eat after the show instead?
Yes. The last reservation is 10pm Tuesday to Saturday and 9pm on Sunday. We're closed on Mondays. Book a late table.
How long will dinner take?
Tables are held for 90 minutes. If you have a show, tell your server when you sit down and order early.
