Prior to our trip to Hudson, we researched many restaurants and found this place. We stopped in on September 27th for Dinner and left thinking we would have been more comfortable somewhere else. Let me give you the pros and cons.

PROS: The food was delicious and portions generous. We ordered a half order of the Nachos as our appetizer because we had heard they were bountiful and they were. We also planned on sharing an entree and so ordered the Fish Tacos as well as two Agave Margaritas. The food was delicious and the Margarita was unique and delicious.

CONS: I had read a review prior to our visit that was posted four months ago and the gentleman had criticized the table he was seated at - A two seater hi top near the restrooms. The owner stated in his response that he would address this. I had no fear of my wife and I getting the dreaded restroom table because I figured with all the comments about what a great guy the owner is that it would have indeed been addressed. It hadn't been and lo and behold that was where my wife and I were seated. It was a Friday night and they were quite busy and we are not the type to speak up in a situation like that because we know the servers are busy enough. I understand in the restaurant business real estate is everything, but it is a table that should be eliminated. We decided to make the best of it and so while enjoying our Nachos we discussed the idea that there would be no way they would be so non-sensical as to bring our entree before we finished the appetizer because there would simply be no room for it. Sure enough, half way through our Nachos the entree shows up. It was placed on the edge of the table for us partially hanging off the edge and the server asked ''is there anything else I can get you?'' I half-heartedly said ''more space?'' her response was to shove the remainder of the plate further onto the table forcing our appetizer and drinks against the wall. WOW. We found ourselves kinda stressed and rushed through our evening out, leaving much of the food on the table, just to get out of the uncomfortableness.

With what looks to be so many great dining options in Downtown Hudson, we will likely not return.
