Let’s look at how we might use “kudos to you” in a sentence. It’s up to you whether you’d prefer “kudos” or “kudos to you,” but both are acceptable choices. We would always rather say “congratulations” and drop the “to you” portion of the word because it streamlines our speech and is all we need. It’s the same effect that “congratulations to you” (which is also correct) has. That makes it more important to shorten the phrase as people like to convey the messages quickly. Most of the time, people will say “kudos” rather than write it. While the “to you” portion of the phrase is correct, it’s usually dropped for the sake of efficiency. It’s also common for people to omit “to you” and just use “kudos,” similar to how we use “congratulations. “Kudos to you” is grammatically correct, as we’re saying “kudos” as “praise,” meaning we’re saying “let me praise you” if we used synonymous words. If we look at the phrase as a whole, it’ll help us to understand whether it’s actually correct to say or not.
