About Via Cassia
Via Cassia, situated on Warren Street in Hudson, NY, brings a slice of Italy to the Hudson Valley with its authentic Italian trattoria setup. Opened by Chef Gaetano Arnone and his partner Meigan, the establishment echoes the spirit of the charming, family-run eateries found throughout Tuscany. Notably housed in the historic space that once belonged to Ca'Mea, it combines rustic charm with a casual dining atmosphere. Guests here can experience the beauty of Italian simplicity with a focus on straightforward, expertly-executed dishes — all crafted with a nod to Chef Gaetano's rich culinary background from venerable NYC institutions such as Babbo and Eataly.
Setting Via Cassia apart is its dedication to authenticity and quality, particularly through its in-house pasta program and regional specialty dishes. Inspired by Chef Gaetano’s decade-long culinary experiences both in New York and at a master butcher's in Tuscany, the menu is a delightful fusion of tradition and innovation. Highlights include the Tre P pasta, a tribute to a cherished dish from a Tuscan favorite, and the unique Grilled Quail 'Fra Diavolo' with lemon yogurt and asparagus, paying homage to Arnone's familial culinary roots. The use of local, seasonal ingredients is paramount, as evidenced by the spring special, Bufala di Mozzarella with Fava and Mint, which portrays a garden of fresh flavors on a plate.
Recognized nationally, Via Cassia has been nominated in USA Today's annual readers’ choice awards as one of the country’s Best New Restaurants, a testament to its rising influence and community impact. This recognition highlights not only the restaurant’s commitment to culinary excellence but also its success in representing the Hudson Valley on a larger stage.
