    Pay three dollars extra for a side salad made Greek
    Gina C.

    Food is outstanding. Service is excellent always consistent. I can't say enough about the pimento cheeseburger. I get mine without the bun because the meat and the pimento cheese is so flavorful. It needs no distraction with a bun.

    Housemade coleslaw

    Small causal restaurant in the heart of Lexington. A local staple which has been in town for ten years, and whether you are local or not you will be sure to feel right at home. Wide variety of options with homemade ingredients. Service is a bit slow but then again who is in rush when you are at home. Loved the bbq shrimp and sausage plate!! Sausage was fresh and I wouldn't be surprised if it was sourced from the local butcher. Shrimp were also cooked perfectly! Wasn't a huge fan of the coleslaw which I found to be a bit too heavy on the dill.

    I had the Libby Wings - they were fabulous. It was a nice refreshing stop for a weary traveler. The waitress was very sweet.

    A tough place to get reservations for, but after tonight, I understand why. Set in what could be a…read morehouse turn restaurant, the ambiance is pretty neutral. Jazz is playing and the servers and wait staff are super nice. Once our reservations were confirmed, we were sat shortly after. We sat and our waitress Avah, or Ava was great. We order a mojito and an eighteen elven as drinks. The pimento cheese and shrimp for appetizers. 12oz NY Strip with French fries and cream fried corn with a 16oz hand cut ribeye with mashed potatoes and string beans. We added on 3 scallops and were happy that we did. Everything was delicious, well seasoned, steaks both medium rare and the drinks were made well. No complaints, probably the most quiet dinner date, but it was for great reason. Please do yourself a favor and grab a reservation.

    Parking is tight so parked across the street at a huge church parked lot. Since it was just before…read more6pm I and I am by myself I didn't do a reservation. Well walked in and see plenty of two tops open and the hostess made me a reservation anyway. Yes and then asked me to please wait for five minutes and then she would seat me. Sure enough after five minutes almost to the dot she took me to one of the many empty tables. Several were two tops. No by the time I left many were full but still trying to force the reservation issue on a rainy, humid yucky Wednesday night is a bit much. The waitress was very nice and very professional as you would expect in a relatively upscale restaurant. She took my drink order and my she crab soup. The ole fashioned was ok. Not great and if you look at the pix it is a bit short. The she crab soup was thinner than most and had an excessive amount of shell in it. Some rather large pieces. Some shell is to be expected but this was a bit much. The bread for dipping was delicious and the soup had plenty of crab in it to go with the shells. Then came time to order main course. I have had salmon, reddish and tuna this week so opted for the scallops. I asked to swap both sides for a side salad and was told no. They don't do that. Hmmm. Usually for a small up charge yes. I have never been just told flat out no till this evening. She advised her manager said no when she went and asked so I had to choose two sides so went with the green beans and the Cajun coleslaw. The scallops were a bit small but ok. The green beans were delicious. Best part of the whole meal. The Cajun slaw was nice and creamy by a bit too spicy so it was left. The place is an old house that has been converted into a nice restaurant. It is nicely decorated and has upscale feel but it is lacking. Had high hopes but trying too hard to be something in an area with lots of restaurant choices. No is what I will say when asked if I will return next trip.

The price is very reasonable; this is a place where you could easily throw peanut shells on the floor and no one would bat an eye (disclaimer: there are no free peanuts to nosh or shells to toss). Hudson's has a buffet. We checked it out quickly (looks like it had pulled pork and fried chicken and chicken livers as protein and a lot of cafeteria style sides and desserts). I guess if I were 30 years younger and had a big appetite I might go for that deal. After a short discussion, we ordered platters: two pulled pork, and one rib. My wife ordered chicken salad. When our orders arrived, we counted three pulled pork platters; alas, no ribs. Opps! Once my order hit the table, he couldn't take it back, so he promptly corrected the order and I got the benefit of double meat, i. e., a generous portion of pulled pork and my ribs. Pulled pork was quite tasty, but I think that I have made it just as good or better in a slow cooker. I really did enjoy my ribs. They had just enough meat and a brown sugar, dry rub. They were tender and not dried out, so I'll give Hudson's four stars on the ribs. I think the baked beans were advertised as barbecue, but our friend who had them said they weren't, but still tasted good. The mac in the mac n cheese was not over cooked, and it was quite cheesy, and I was surprised to find a few crispy chunks of cheesy sauce--always a plus! The slaw was fresh and well prepared. This was our first trip to Hudson's and our friends have been there several times but not for years. I have to give them a solid three. As I already mentioned, Hudson's a good-value dining choice; the BBQ is decent, but the sides are not much better than a K & W cafeteria. A great family Smokehouse!
