Creole Garlic Garlic - Creole Wings
Theresa P.

First time I went here they had a really good pot roast meal. It was amazing. Second time, we ordered the creole and garlic wings. As you can see in the photo, they were covered in jarlick - jarred garlic. I get it they are busy, but these were doused with garlic. It was so heavy handed with garlic they weren't any good. We ate 3 of 10. We sent them back and asked to get a different kind of wing. Waitress said sure, no problem. We got the bill and were charged for two orders of wings. We tried to have the ones we sent back removed from the bill. $16 for a plate of 10 wings. The manager said, "It's our policy not to refund if the food is made to spec." How were we supposed to know that's their policy? It wasn't listed on the menu of hungry up anywhere we could have noticed. I've never had a problem sending back food and being charged for it before, and I assumed most restaurants have a general rule if you don't eat or like something, you don't get charged for it. Just a heads up if you dine here.

Really enjoyed the customer service, price, and the quality of the food we ended up eating. The ingredients were obviously fresh, it was cooked perfectly, and our pretty young woman was all about smiles and accommodations. It's wasn't very noisy, we had a toddler with us, it was very memorable. Will return when we visit Hudson again.

Had a pretty good meal with my son and his girlfriend here on a very busy Monday night during Covid. I believe that the reason it was so busy is because this Bar restaurant is located on the Wisconsin side of the Minnesota Boarder. Minnesota has recently pretty much closed the ability to eat sit down meal in a restaurant and, by the number of MN License plates on cars outside, a lot of people came to Hudson to eat. (Including my son who lives in Minneapolis). I'm not saying that this place didn't deserve to be busy! The food was pretty good.... especially the Short Rib, Brussel Sprout, Tater-Tot Casserole. Unique and tasty. So refreshing to find something absolute new (at least to me) when eating at a local eatery. If I had to point out anything that was maybe not as great was the Fish in Chips. I would put that meal in the "average" category. This not bad... but the casserole was the star on our table! Service was great and very friendly.

Ahi Tuna Melt and Kids Chicken Tenders
Tanya K.

Overall the atmosphere and service were great. Our waitress was super on top of things and very efficient. The food was good but needed just a little something to put it into the great range. The fries and chips were homemade and really good. The batter on the chicken tenders was more like fish fry batter which really threw my son for a loop. Tasted good, just different. The ahi tuna melt was good but needed just a little more spice or salt or something. If I were back in the area I'd swing back in.

Fried pickles are okay! Service is a bit off! Drinks are not very flavorful!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sooo good - 5 stars all the way! I don't give out a lot of 5 star reviews but Barker's earns all 5 of them! Our food was excellent and the service was 100% on-spot. They have a nice selection of specialty cocktails and beers. I tried and Barker's Bulldog. It was great. Every bite of our food was very good. I particularly loved the cheese curds and the sour Tabasco type house dipping sauce - yum! My tomato basil soup was off-the-hook great, some of the best I've ever tasted. And my friend's tomato based seafood soup was first rate. Our lunch entrees were equally good. My El Diablo Chicken Sandwich was excellent with the right amount of heat and a generous hunk of breast meat. The hand-cut Barker's fries were perfect. I tried my friend's Reuben Sandwich - again - very good. Our desserts were awesome too. I had a root beer float and my buddy had a chocolate raspberry tort - wow! Last but not least, our service was totally on-point. Everyone was really nice, friendly, cheery, and attentive (without being overbearing). It's nice to dine at a place where the employees are all great. They obviously take pride in working at Bark's. This is definitely one of the top spots in Hudson. Thumbs up! -Daddy Maxx Retro

The best! Spicy #5.
Chris J.

Great service, historic venue and food was perfect! Beer selection and wings are maybe the best I have had. We had the Spicy #5 and bbq wings. Found the Spicy to better than bbq. A must try if your in the area and if not worth the drive.

I got the chop salad with chicken. It has a mango vinaigrette as a dressing and it is very sweet. I liked it but some people might find it a bit over powering. There were lots of walnuts in the salad as well. Overall a very good salad. I also tried my boyfriends Fish and Chips - these were just ok. Would not order again. I had a taste of the BBQ bacon burger and the turkey burger. The bbq burger had a fantastic bbq sauce and the bacon was both huge and done perfectly. The turkey burger was better than average. Everyone at the table agreed that the the fries were mediocre - lukewarm, soggy and over salted.

Join their dining club and get points. Good food and I would give five stars with a bigger set of options for non alcohol beers and wine.

We've been coming to San Pedro Café several times a month for the last four years, and it's…read moreconsistently outstanding. We've tried a lot on the menu, but we always come back to our favorites: the roasted tomato nachos (don't skip the extra aioli) and the chicken chile penne, both packed with flavor and so satisfying. The cocktails are absolutely to die for, and the patio is one of our favorite places to relax. The staff is always friendly, attentive, and welcoming. We've truly never had a bad experience, this place is a gem, and we look forward to every visit!

A trip to San Pedro in the winter makes you feel like you're on vacation and their beautiful patio in the back is perfect for summer weather. There isn't a bad thing on the menu and their mojitos are delish. Plus, it's in WI so you can always get Spotted Cow beer. The restaurant is small overall so make sure to put your name on the waitlist (access on their website) before you get there. Seriously, why don't more restaurants have this option?!?? Their chicken nachos are our favorite with the legendary habanero aioli. Their servers and bartenders are great. There is a parking lot behind the restaurant and paid street parking as well. This is a must try!!!

We were passing through town and stopped for dinner on a Monday night. There was no need for a…read morereservation on this particular evening, as we were seated promptly after our arrival and there were plenty of open tables. The venue is a bit outdated, but it's fine for a small town local eatery. The Christmas decor was still on display in February. The staff was friendly. The food was decent but nothing was extraordinary.

The pastries seemed hard and stale. For advertising Prime Rib, the cuts that were served were disappointing. We were looking around for a carving station with au jus and horseradish. We found what seemed to be a stack of cold precut pieces with grill marks like a Salisbury steak from a tv dinner. I wish I'd taken a pic. We've always had good restaurant food there so we also suggested it to another family with a large group. They rated it a 3/10 so I was embarrassed I'd recommended it at the price we paid. It was also my brothers 50th birthday to we agreed to spend more than we normally do on Easter brunch/person. Unfortunate double occasion choice. The dessert choices were lacking with cookies and what seemed like an all whipped cream pie. I wish I'd bought a cake. We were told our reservation was later as we got mixed in with the other family and the desk wasn't understanding that I had my own reservation confirmed three times. Server and staff were somewhat attentive (hard to get 2nd drink) but it just was disappointing. Sadly won't return for holidays but we've loved the French onion soup, fried cauliflower, and old style supper club vibe when visiting the restaurant in the past and ordering from the menu. I tried emailing them, but I've had no response.
