What You'll Get
Bistros are remarkable in that they somehow manage to be both fancy and casual at the same time, much like a necktie with Taz on it. Feel gussied up without too much fuss with today's Groupon: for $25, you get $50 worth of food at Chloé in Hudson. This Groupon is valid for the regular-priced dinner menu only, and is not valid toward drinks. Chloé is closed on Sundays and Mondays.
Chloé balances traditional New England fare and a Euro-centric sense of style in an intimate bistro setting. Though Chloé's menu changes seasonally and sometimes even daily, appetizers and salads generally run $6 to $8, and entrees range from $14 to $26. Recent menu items include starters such as cod cakes, grilled polenta, and escargot, with salads drawing power from rare and mythical fruits such as blueberries, tomatoes, and goat cheese. Exemplary entrees at Chloé have included slow-braised lamb shank, free-range chicken, sautéed tilapia, and grilled sirloin steak, ensuring that meaties of all mindsets are satisfied sustenance-wise so that they don't resort to overly elaborate butcher-shop heists.
Though this Groupon does not cover drink purchases, Chloé does house an impressive array of wines for fueling impromptu rap-offs or careful composition of silverware structures. Take a seat in the restaurant's cozy dining room, which calls to mind a country café in France, and enjoy the live jazz occupying Chloé's aural real estate on Friday and Saturday evenings. Reservations are recommended, so call ahead or hire a skywriter to spell it out in smoky letters while flying through the restaurant.
