10. Dick's Bar & Grill

Went to Dick's last night for dinner, service was great, but the menus were filthy, and made me wonder what the kitchen looked like. Popcorn is ALWAYS free, and delicious, but the new owners aren't providing the paper "boats'' anymore, They have colorful plastic bowls, that didn't appear to be washed, at all. The were greasy, and had leftover salt in them. It was burger night, and the burgers were very dry, and tasteless, served on dry bread.These new owners have changed the tried and true menu, and have let the standards go. We were the only diners in the place, which is very unusual, because Dick's has always been the place people go. I think word has gotten out.

we went to this restaurant while visiting relatives, Great food..my boyfriend & I ordered the bbq platter,,,loaded with fantastic variety of meats,,delicious..it arrived quickly..but the couple we were will ordered burgers,,,well an hour later still no burgers,,,we politely complained it has been a very long time,,1/2hr later still no burgers,,,ummm now we are getting a bit annoyed, the manager Justin ( I think his name was) gave us free drinks when we complained again about 2 burgers..10min later the burgers arrived,,Justin was very apologetic, sincere....their burgers were good. when we got the bill, Justin had removed the 2 burgers from the bill and presented us with a $20 gift card. That man did the utmost right thing in comping that meal, He went above and beyond and it would be nice to see more managers care about every customer and gives great public service. Thank you

We stopped here right before 11 for brunch on a Sunday. We sat downstairs as always, but this time in the very back corner by the kitchen and next to the bar. Service was fast today.We ordered and got our Bloody Marys with chasers ($5 each) quickly. It took a few more minutes for our breakfasts to come out but the timing was reasonable. We had each ordered Red Eye breakfasts with minor variations ($9). The Red Eye is a great tasting breakfast and very filling. This time it was presented very well and tasted good. There is some grease with the griddle food but it's ok. Also, the sausage is pretty salty but alright.Very quiet this time at Seasons and really enjoyable. Server was very nice.

Popped in here for lunch one afternoon with some friends. It was a great choice. Lots of small plates, made with care. Our waiter was superb and personable, offering his suggestions of menu items we just had to try. The mixed berry and goat cheese salad was fresh, and beautifully presented with lots of fresh berries. The pork belly and Korean BBQ hanger steak tacos were absolutely delicious with complex flavors. Buffalo Chicken wings were crispy and spiced to the preference stated. Nice list of local craft beers as well as a number of wines by the glass. Cool full service bar, great vibe, plenty of parking. This is a solid place for a nice meal along the St. Croix river.

It had been about 3 years since we visited this place. We had a very bad experience back then after eating here for years. When we get Charles at the bar, things are always much better! We now come back on occasion, and when he isnât here, things donât seem to go as smoothly for us. He is very friendly, and on top of things. This trip here my husband had the Rueben Farl which heâs had a few times and really likes. Itâs a flatbread with Reuben sandwich fixings on it. Very tasty. I got the Corned Beef and Cabbage Boxty. Boxtys are layers of potato pancake type things with a meat- corned beef on this one, but I also love the Jameson Medallions as well, and they have other flavors too. They are layered with other things as well, such as cheese and cabbage on the Rueben Farl. Very, very good!!! Both were very good. This place is a little pricy, but mostly because of the beverages we like. We love Smithwicks, and on this trip added a Bloody Mary, which was only average. I will show the picture of our receipt so you can get a sense of the prices here. I want to say that I do recommend it here, but itâs really a crap shoot depending on if you eat at the bar, or in the dining room, who your server or bartender is, and what day it is. I had the fish not to long ago and it came out to me uncooked. The food is good if you hit the right night!

My husband and I decided to try this restaurant again after a long absence. We had had a very bad experience eating brunch here when the loudspeakers for college football were absolutely cranked. This time we visited on a weekday for early lunch.We were greeted after a couple of minutes and were given our choice of tables. They even let us move after we had just sat down; we wanted to talk and the main street noise was a little loud (plus there was a business meeting one booth away which was uncomfortable for everybody). Our server was with us right away and brought us waters at our new spot.We were both going to have the Avocado Impossible Burger. Unfortunately they canât get the product in; the server thought it was because of a lawsuit by two fast food franchises (I wonât mention them here). So... it took us a few more minutes to figure out what we wanted. We arenât vegans, we just really like the flavor and texture of the Impossible Burger and also donât like eating that much red meat (cholesterol and triglycerides!). Fortunately our server was patient and nice. My husband ordered the Chicken Ranch Wrap and a house side salad ($11.99). I ordered the Walleye Sandwich with a house side salad ($14.99). We both ordered iced tea. It took a while for our sandwiches to get to us but we could see that the back deck was full of people and they were busy. My Walleye Sandwich was delicious but broken in the middle, so it was in two pieces. The Canadian walleye is beer battered using Summit Pale Ale and is served on Grilled Herb Focaccia. The focaccia was a little bit dry and the sandwich was sloppy to eat, but the fish made up for it. My husbandâs Chicken Ranch Wrap was made of chopped chicken tenders. He said the chicken was a little dry and over cooked but that the wrap, which came with Swiss cheese, lettuce, tomato, green onions, and ranch dressing was good overall.The atmosphere in the restaurant was nice. There was music playing at a moderate level but soft enough so you could talk without shouting. It was really pleasant and service was good. The restaurant was also quite clean.We will definitely go back for lunch!Thank you for your review! We greatly appreciate you taking the time leave us with your feedback, and are pleased to hear that you enjoyed your time with us. We look forward to having you guys in again!

We came around 8:00pm on a Tuesday evening. We checked in with the hostess inside to be seated on the beautiful deck outside. Our waitress was pretty good overall, but we did have to wait a bit between things we had requested. One time was WAY too long. I had just received my pasta dish, and she knew in advance I liked a lot of Parmesan, but when she started to grate it in the roller machine, hardly anything would come out- she said she wouldbe right back, but it took over ten minutes for her return. My pasta was cold. I took a bite, but I donât like pasta without Parmesan. Bottom line. My beer cheese soup that was âunlimitedâ was too sweet, and I even had my husband taste it- no cheese... no beer. Weird. I did not finish the first cup. He had the Rueben and liked it quite a bit. The Caprese salad was pretty good. The cheese curds average. The scenery was beautiful, and with a beautiful evening, the deck was awesome.

The Nola fries are massive yet a must. Think buffalo wings in fry form. Great for a group appetizer. The chimichanga entree is our go-to order. Great flavor and extremely filling. Be prepared for leftovers (especially if ordering an appetizer also). Good selection of drinks. Prices reasonable given the value.

To be honest, this is more of a 3 1/2 star review than a 4. I really thought our server did a great job even though service was slow at times. I think she was very busy and we expect that on a Sunday morning. The name on our receipt was Jen, and it was for September 15th in the morning. She and the seating on the deck were the bright spot of our visit. The mimosas ($2.97 each) were good too, but hard to get a second one.Our visit did not start out well. We went to the host/hostess stand on the deck for seating. We were barely greeted, absolutely no smiles or anything. One of the young girls who was a host took us to a table very close to a table with 3 small boys and a man who wasnât even trying to control them. They were on the chair backs, had their shoes all over the chairs and the table (so unsanitary) and were just being obnoxious. There was absolutely NO WAY I was going to sit near them, and I certainly wasnât going to sacrifice my husband and make him sit near them. There were several empty tables further down the deck and I was surprised that she wanted to seat us in the busiest section at 10:30 in the morning with all of the other tables open. I know tables should be divided equally between servers, but we couldnât sit here.I suggested that we look for another table as nicely as I could, my husband pointed to a small table tucked away but easy to get to. The host thought a moment (a moment too long) and took us to the table. We thanked her and she walked away silently. I donât know what is wrong with some people, why would we go out on a Sunday morning and WANT to be seated next to people that shouldâve been asked to leave? We wouldnât stay, we would go to another restaurant. I think some of these young girls need to be talked to about seating away from problem tables until there is no more room; otherwise you lose patrons!So it took a few minutes for our server to get to us but she did a good job. The coffee was good ($2.50 ea.) but difficult to get a refill at any time during the meal. Also the uneven nature of the table caused a coffee and cream spill as the the table tipped to the side after coffee service. It took a long time to get any help in getting it cleaned up and get another napkin for my husband; he cleaned it up quickly and prevented a bigger mess. We really needed something (paper napkins?) to put under the table pedestal but couldnât get anyone to stop. So, we just grabbed the table every time it tried to rock (we had both tried to move it after the incident but it didnât help).Finally, we were able to order. My husband got the vegetable omelet ($10) which he liked and which I also though tasted good. I got the Prime Rib Hash ($14), which had a lot of meat and tasted good but was swimming in grease. I included a photo of all of the grease at the bottom of the bowl. Nauseating. I had to keep straining my food and got bad indigestion afterward. We did not have time to have it remade as Iâm sure management will suggest; seriously, why would I want to sit there any longer when service of our food took awhile the first time and my husband would be done with his meal? We have more to do than sit in a restaurant for hours.Some of our dining went well after that but it was hard to relax in the atmosphere there. The table of four right next to us was seated with a man, woman, and the womanâs two small children. When the children started chattering, the man would suggest that they âthrow on a videoâ for them (he repeatedly insisted). In the middle of the restaurant?? Maybe do that at McDonalds or Burger King! Fortunately, mom had more sense. Where do these people come from?The view was nice at least.Hello CaptTrouble -We appreciate you taking the time to complete a review of our restaurant.

We tipped the two cooks since they were working so efficiently and the food we were served was great. I highly recommend the "Broadway Burger". It was done perfectly, medium, as ordered. A blend of brisket, chuck and short rib topped with Prairie Breeze white cheddar cheese, charred red onion jam & local Weedâs Greens micro greens. The pulled pork sandwich was also good. Both sandwiches were served with tasty chips and pickles. Great service, this is the 2nd time we've been here and will definitely go back again when in Hudson.Curly, thank you for visiting our restaurant and for taking the time to write a review. We are so happy to hear you enjoyed your experience and that you loved the food, the Broadway Burger is one of my favorites. We look forward to seeing you again soon.
