"Every store are very popular and high class brand."
Cons:
"They only have about 5 to 7 stores or luxury brands with priced tickets way higher than what the average consumer would like to spend."
"Most of the stores are very high end and not for the casual shopper."
"Over priced everything, but it's billed as a luxury mall, so take it for what it is."
"A high end mall with lots of expensive stores I didn't even look at."
"Very pretty, but everything is super expensive, so its not accessible for anyone on a budget."

Food and Dining
Pros:
"There is a food court on the second floor with a big seating area also overlooking the marina."
"There are plenty of dining options. Outdoor cafe-type seating as well as many indoor options as well."
"Don’t miss the 'food court' which looks like a 5⭐️ restaurant upstairs- leather seating, marble tables, soaring ceilings and a great view of the Hudson."
"Fancy mall. Has a food court where you have many options."
"The food court is great with good restaurant options and plenty of tables with a good view of the Hudson River."
"Hudson Eats is possibly the best food court anywhere."
"The food court has a vast selection of food and different types of cuisine to choose from."
Cons:
"Eatery is expensive."
"The food court is small and doesn’t have too many options but is located right across from the twin towers memorial."
"Didn't really like this place at all. Went there to get something to eat at the food court. It was extremely crowded, not enough seating."
"Now, as far as food is concerned, they have about four options, pizza Chinese, Italian and South food... there’s not much else to eat and they’re all around $20 a plate of food."
"However, we wouldn't recommend the mac and cheese."
"The restaurants are okay here but the view is actually better than the food."
"But, restaurants to buy a burger 🍔 are Ridiculously Expensive. Just bring your food and water or juice, Then you good."

Cons:
"But the security lady abruptly in a rude belittling New York kind of way of talking told me no tripods with no explanation why."
"Security & Maintenance team disrespectful"
"The snobby escalator host was misleading us that there’s no restroom here."
"There are guards around the whole building just to make sure no one is sitting down in the place even when no one is cleaning."
"The guards would kick you out if you sit on the benches, then won't let you sit under the palm trees."
"The place is really nice but when at midnight, the guards would kick you out if you sit on the benches, then won't let you sit under the palm trees."
"This place just feels like a failure of the imagination - putting a suburban looking mall right in downtown Manhattan."
