Not so fresh seafood, poor service, good view of water. – The combination platter is $18.99 and had 7 small shrimp and 7 oysters. more broccoli than anything. The shrimp and oysters had no taste, like was fried in old grease. This place definitely overrated! Save your money and go somewhere else. We sat by the window and the view of water was pretty, but we could have sat on the banks and got that for free! server rushed us and brought our main dishes before we had a chance to eat our very small salad, which had lettuce, cuc... read more
A disappointment. – Four of us decided to try this restaurant our last night in HHI. It was quite disappointing. One of the men had planned on ordering the stuffed flounder only to find they no longer carried it on the menu. The seafood platter comes broiled or fried. The guys ordered 1 of each, and both were lacking. The fried scallop wasn't cooked - yuck! My husband's 'broiled' plate was so overcooked, and tiny servings of the different items were lost. I wasn't that hungry, so I tried the Crab Rangoon. I've had better at ... read more
Greasy seafood, poor service – This is a nice location by the docks. Our waitress was badly inexperienced rushing our meal by bringing our entrees while we were still eating salad. The fried seafood was undercooked and greasy.
Best Basic Seafood Restaurant on Hilton Head – An island stalwart since the 1960's, this venerable restaurant sets the mark for others of its ilk to aspire to. Hudsons is a basic seafood restaurant. If you are looking a french style meal with sauced fish and white table cloths, this is not the place. However, if you are looking for consistantly good basic fried, steamed and broiled seafood, this is the place. I have eaten at Hudsons numerous times in the past decades and never had a bad meal. They constanantly outshine their... read more
A no-frills island establishment on Skull Creek where you can watch shrimp boats haul in the day's catch. – In Short White cinder-block walls covered with buoys, enormous swordfish and nautical knickknacks probably haven't changed much since doors opened in 1967. Large windows overlook a fleet of shrimp boats working Skull Creek. A waterside deck and bar with occasional live music keep summer crowds happy while they wait. Shrimp is the menu cornerstone, but there's also fish, crab and oysters served broiled or fried. Golden ... read more
Very Disappointed!! Average food and not the best atmosphere. – We went expecting the best because of the rave reviews this place has gotten but were very disappointed. The food was not that good and you did not get very much for your money. We were not impressed with the restaurant itself or with the quality of the seafood. We may try it one more time during shrimp season to give it another chance but it is doubtful.
This place is awesome! – Fancy its not, but if you're lookings for great food, excellent value, and service with a smile, go to Hudson's at your next chance. I had never been to Hilton Head Island before but quickly learned about Hudson's and the fact that its been an island staple for over 35 years. Their recipe for success starts when you walk through the door and are warmly greeted by the host who will undoubtedly make you feel like you're home. The "clams casino" and "oysters hudson" are truly mouth-watering , but then a... read more
Two Thumbs Up – I don't know what restaurant you guys went to. There is a Benny Hudsons seafood down the street, but Hudson's on the docks has never served my family anything but the freshest seafood in town. There is apparently a new chef that is adding a few new, more contemporary items. When i was last there for lunch, I had a grouper sandwich that was incredibly moist and seasoned to perfection. Hudson's has always done a great job of letting the fresh ingredients steal the show. Try the Oysters Hudson, and the Appetizer... read more
Great Place – My husband and I ate at Hudson's on Feb 26, 2005, and despite the reviews, we had a wonderful time. We ate the peel and eat shrimp ($13.99 for 24) and she-crab soup. Both were wonderful and at a great price. For dinner, we ate at Charley's Crab, and I would recommend Hudson's over Charley's Crab. The service was great, and we enjoyed seeing the boats pass by. I would eat at this restaurant again.
