We visited Hudson Café while spending a beautiful day exploring downtown Detroit, and it was an…read moreexcellent experience. The city was bustling with people, and I was pleasantly surprised by how gorgeous the downtown area was. The café had a vibrant, energetic atmosphere that perfectly matched the excitement of the city. Our server was absolutely amazing and made excellent recommendations. The portions were generous, and the food was delicious. Based on the recommendation, I ordered the corned beef hash with the cinnamon pancakes, and both were fantastic. Next time, I definitely want to try the red velvet pancakes! My friend ordered the Triple Triple Omelette with the original buttermilk pancakes, and we both chose the cheesy grits. The cheesy grits were very creamy, though I would recommend adding a little more butter to enhance the flavor. That was really my only critique. The restaurant was busy, but after dining there, I completely understand why. Despite the crowd, we were greeted immediately, and the service was prompt throughout our visit. Overall, Hudson Café delivered great food, outstanding service, generous portions, and a fun atmosphere. I will most certainly be back the next time I'm in downtown Detroit!

Our waitress was very friendly and accommodating, and drinks and food came out quickly. I appreciate they have espresso drinks, and ordered the chai latte but it was a little too sweet for me - I'd go with a plain latte next time. I also think I may have ordered the wrong dish because my mom got an omelette with pancakes on the side and enjoyed it. I gambled with the huevos rancheros but they were just ok. I wish the potatoes were more seasoned. You definitely get a huge portion for whatever you order so expect to split with someone or have leftovers. All in all, a solid brunch spot but not a favorite.

By the time we walked out, every table was taken and there were a few people waiting out the door. I got the kimchi patatas bravas and they were good, but maybe not quite as flavorful or spicy as I hoped they'd be. I only had a tea as a drink but would love to check out their cocktails next time. Overall a solid spot that I'd visit again, but it didn't quite blow me away.

Although the space is a bit tight, the classic setup and the walls filled with vintage items make me feel relaxed, giving me that perfect, cozy morning vibe. The pancakes are always excellent. Their baked pancake, the "Big German," is a rare find that you won't easily see elsewhere, and its unique, chewy texture is absolutely outstanding. Every other menu item is wonderful as well. While the prices have been creeping up lately, it is still very reasonable when you consider the generous portions, taste, and wonderful atmosphere. This time, I sat and chatted with an old friend for quite a while, and I only noticed the long waiting line on my way out. Thanks to our thoughtful and friendly server, another wonderful experience was added.

I thought the saloon-type entry doors were a fun touch. I liked the atmosphere, too. The menu is wide-ranging, from breakfast any time to burgers, salads and sandwiches. I don't drink alcohol often, but I noticed they had a good selection of hard cider. I decided to get the one that was on the top of the menu -- something with pineapple. It was sweet but very good. My sister had the Honest John's hard cider that was on draft. It wasn't as sweet, but it was good as well. I had the grilled johnny john sandwich -- chicken, swiss cheese, tomatoes, lettuce on grilled pita. It was very filling; I only ate half! My sister had the chicken Caesar wrap, with the same result. We ordered some plain fries to share. Those weren't anything special. All in all, I liked the restaurant and would go back.
