    Chicken wrap
    Jackie C.

    Tik tok told me to try the nachos here haha! We stopped in on a Saturday over lunch. It was busy but not crazy (at least inside!) I saw they had a STUNNING patio during a bathroom break and wished the staff had offered it to us when we checked in as we had no idea it existed! The vibes of the whole place are tropical and fun. Now the food! The nachos were flavorful and fun but technically difficult to eat. The cheese hardened quickly and most chips had nothing on them. We also split a chicken wrap. Sadly I didn't like this at all, the flavor was just weird for me and my partner said it had too much lettuce. Maybe I missed it but I wish they offered more of a true burrito because their rice an beans look stellar! The wrap came with a side salad and I loveddd the mango dressing. The drink menu is fun and elaborate too. Prices are totally reasonable. I might come back for a patio drink!

    Chicken nachos

    We LOVE this place so much. It's been around since 2000 and it's still so good. Their Caribbean inspired menu never disappoints and much of it is made in their wood fired oven. 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!!!

    Mojito mocktail with mango

    Beautiful ambience, wonderful food, such a unique location and a fantastic menu. I love their Mojito mocktail with mango and any of their tacos.

    Flank steak street tacos

    I've been coming to San Pedro for 20+ years. I love the lively atmosphere tasty Mojitos open air kitchen everything I love in a restaurant is here. Huge fish aquarium at the bar. Great service. I love when you get a menu and you have to take forever because you want everything on it and you can't decide. I've had the duck nachos several times. This visit was a little disappointing because there was too many chips and not enough of the toppings that usually make it very spicy and interesting but still very tasty. My dad had the linguine Del Mar. The shrimp were very sweet and tasty. The pasta was cooked perfectly very rich and delicious. I had the flank steak tacos. I felt like I could've had more steak and less beans. But very fresh avocado and salsa. Love this place

    Outdoor patio space

    After visiting a nearby bookstore, I stopped here for lunch. The food here is crave worthy, and my favorite item on the menu is the Shrimp St. Croix: shrimp and linguine, with just a little kick + Asiago + wood fired vegetables (that are still crisp tender). I wish all vegetables defaulted to this as they are perfection. It comes with a small dinner salad and bread; the mango vinaigrette on the salad is tangy and sweet. We sat in the back of the restaurant, which wasn't ideal. While we had comfortable booth seating and a view of the wood fired kitchen, it also had a lot of foot traffic/noise from the wait staff. We were here on a weekend, so it was fully packed and quite loud. The decor is bright and festive, and we noticed as we left that there are two outdoor patio spaces. I may opt to sit out there next time, as it would be much quieter than the restaurant. Note: there is lot parking to the side and rear of the restaurant.

    Chicken penne
    Tracey F.

    Always drive by this spot when going through Hudson. Had some friends that wanted to meet up and suggested San Pedro. We happened to go on a pretty hot day and I would not recommend that. Inside is crowded and warm and the patio doesn't have a lot of air flow. Also, we had to wait forever to get water and we had the world's smallest glasses and refills took a while too, not ideal on a hot day. Got the chicken penne. Was only ok. Was told it would be spicy, which I was fine with, but I just didn't love it. Others at the table also has similar feelings about their food, not bad, just didn't love it.

    Heated tent in the back
    Tippy P.

    My aunt recommended this restaurant while we're out in Hudson, it's been her friends favorite restaurant. We checked out the menu and was surprised it's carribean and asian fusion. Colorful restaurant with heated tent in the back as well. We ordered few appetizers and drinks while waiting for our reservation time.

    San Pedro Café This is the nicest dining experience I've had in a long time. The food, drinks, décor, and service are all top notch! My only regret is that I can't rewind time and enjoy it all over again. I've had my fair share of bad dining experiences--horrendous meals, inattentive staff, dirty tables, and grimy atmospheres--but you'll find none of that here. Instead, San Pedro Café delivers unique drinks, flavorful dishes, and friendly, attentive staff who actually check on you and keep your drinks filled. It's definitely on my list for future stops whenever I'm back in the area. Thanks for restoring my faith in restaurants--see you next time!

    Jerk chicken nachos
    Sousakon M.

    Parking can be difficult because restaurant is on the main drag. There is a pay parking lot beside and behind. Nicely located in the heart of the city. Service was ok. We waited around a lot. Food was decent. Back patio looks very charming. Would be a fun spot in the summer.

    Jerk chicken with rice and mixed veggies
    Markus G.

    So I had been hearing so much about this restaurant that we had to give it a try. Parking wasn't much of an issue, but we also came before the dinner rush. When we walked in we were told we could sit wherever we wanted. We sat at a booth and our server came over and took our order and she was replaced by two young ladies because she was leaving. So I ordered the jerk chicken with mixed vegetables and my other half ordered the chicken chile penne. The food was phenomenal, perfectly seasoned, and spicy enough to make it very enjoyable. I like how they ask if you're okay with spicy food when ordering for those who might not be equipped to handle spicy foods. Also, I love the decor, I love the brick look on one side of the restaurant kind of gave it that industrial look which I feel was a nice touch. I tried the blackberry margarita and it was my first time trying it and now I'm a fan it was made perfectly. I cannot say enough good things about this hidden gem. But we will return so we can enjoy the patio we couldn't enjoy on this visit because the weather wasn't favorable. Thank you San Pedro Cafe for making our visit one to remember.

    Duck Nachos
    Brian M.

    Always a great atmosphere! The patio is perfect, and the food and drinks never miss. The mojitos are refreshing, and the duck nachos are a must every time. One of my go-to spots in Hudson!

    The Tourist pizza.
    Maxx M.

    Another great meal - I have to bump these guys up a notch - 5 stars! Where does the time go? It's been 4 years since I met my Wisconsin buddy at San Pedro Cafe. Wow, another excellent experience at San Pedro! FOOD: Again, the food was great. This time my friend ordered a pizza, The Tourist. I tried some and it was delicious. I ordered Hot Pepper & Garlic Shrimp off the appetizer menu. It was great, bursting with wonderful flavors and spicy heat. It was really busy, which says a lot. People know where to get tasty food. SERVICE: Despite being busy as hell, our service was excellent. Our server was totally on top of everything, attentive without being overbearing. Nice! LOW CARBOHYDRATE: This time around I arrived with the perspective of a low-carb, keto, carnivore eating style. I was happy to see that this is easy to accomplish (and tasty) at San Pedro. I avoided anything with large quantities of starch, added sugar, or anything that might be hiding factory vegetable seed oils. I gave my bread away to my buddy...he was happy and I was happy...and my doctor is happy that I'm not blasting my glucose and insulin levels. Highly recommended! -Maxx

    Listen, I want 5 stars so bad for this place, but they fell short on a key aspect. The only reason…read morefor 4 stars was because they were out of goat and patties, and the server seemed unforgiving as well. Everything was GOOD. By GOOD I mean delicious and large and tasty and I just wanted to stuff my face, which I did. I had the chicken curry, my second option because they were out of goat. That's cool though because it was still really good, just a TINY BIT dry, but the sauce made up for it. The bowls were huge, which I love because it was a bit expensive. The sauces were so good, honestly reminds me of my days in Florida and frequenting the Caribbean restaurants there. The drinks (agua frescas), PHEW, were AMAZING. I had the Jamaica, my partner got the Guava, and they killed it with those drinks!!! Sooo flavorful and refreshing, paired very well with the savory food. The bar manager came and talked to us because we were the only people in that joint, she was so friendly and funny. She got us cups and ranch, even though ranch isn't on the menu, for my partner because the bowl was spicy even with the neutralizer. The ambiance was cool and the building was separated into two by curtains, one side was the restaurant and the other was the bar. I could tell they get lit and have a good time there for sure, sound systems and security clued me in on that. We ate in the bar side and the table was very thin, probably made for drinks only, but we made it work. The worker at the register seemed tired of disinterested. He didn't help us out nor present any options, just confirmed or denied what we asked. He wasn't super helpful or welcoming, but he seemed tired so I'll let him have that.

    We went to Pimento before a show at the Ordway. It definitely has "bar" vibes with the music and…read morelights which wasn't necessarily the ambiance we were looking for BUT the staff were friendly, the food was great, and the quickness was just right. We ordered at the counter so we were ready to catch our show at a moment's notice which was perfect. Not to mention the perfectly filling dinner we had. FOOD: we both had the jerk chicken street option with rice, plantains, and slaw. Such a filling and great option. We also got drinks which were adequately strong and well priced. SERVICE: friendly and perfect AMBIANCE: bar vibes but comfortable and definitely perfectly good for us at least (young 20-something's) Parking; tricky but it's expected in St Paul
