5 Favorite Sizzlin’ Hudson Valley Fajita Spots

Here are the top 5 places to get fajitas in the Hudson Valley.

I'll always remember having the best fajitas, personally, at Fresno's in Poughkeepsie. Fresno's Southwest Restaurant & Bar at the Poughkeepsie Galleria was the place to go for me back in the 90s. An order of their amazing fajitas and a Texas-size Budweiser really hit the spot.
