“Hands down the best BBQ in town! We had the sampler platter. The ribs are tender, tasty, and fall off the bone. The brisket literally melts in your mouth. Now, we were not fond of the italian sausage as for us, it was just spicy italian sausage. This is a place to go eat!“
“I've been to Hudson's many times as it's on the way home but it not been here and probably almost a year. It was Friday afternoon but the place seemed more lively and upbeat.The menu is fairly expansive with quite a few options, some of them outside the normal fare. The prices had gone up a bit but the food was really quite good, I had the meatloaf sandwich and my wife had a salad that was much better than a far more expensive place a few nights earlier. The beer prices seem quite high to me, but I haven't been out drinking in quite a while. they do have an outdoor patio in the summer that borders a fairly quiet street, it is a great place to grab an afternoon sandwich. They have a huge diverse burger selection, as well as a good Reuben and Breaded PorkTenderloin, alll served with pretty good portions of Good fries!Several steps above fast food for a couple bucks more, definitely worth it“
“I've eaten here several times, and the food is always excellent. Most recently, we dined in on a Monday, which is their burger special night. We just happened to hit happy hour as well, so I was expecting a bigger bill. So, I just put a little more in their tip.Burgers are great, drinks are cold, service is wonderful. I substitute the potatoe salad for French fries, and it's really good.I would recommend this place 11 times out of 10 over that 5 Guys place, especially on a Monday. Their burgers are way better! And you can even have an adult beverage with it!Anyone traveling along I-80 should stop here for a burger. Especially if it's a Monday.Parking: There is plenty of parking, but there isn't really a place for truckers trucks hauling/pulling a trailer. So that kind of sucks.“
“The food was amazing and the service was spectacular. This is a must stop if you are in the area.The owner/cook came out and was very friendly. We enjoyed our conversation and he made sure the food was to our liking. In addition the server was very helpful in making great choices for our burgers and the ice cream sandwich is a must have… save room!!“
“The chicken lip extravaganza is awesome and usually turns into a meal plus a snack for later. The sauce on the chicken lips hits every time, the mac and cheese and dim sum green beans are excellent. Staff is always friendly and fast every time I go in. You can see right into the kitchen which looks super clean. They also have a free rewards program which means every 3 or 4 times I get takeout it's about half-price on my meal. I haven't explored their menu much, but everything I've had has been high quality.“
“Such a fun atmosphere with excellent service, food, and drinks! This is my husband and my new "local spot".Kid-friendliness: They have high chairs, and the last couple of times I went, they provided crayons and paper. They also have lids They can put on cups for kiddos to have water, if you don't bring your own.“
“Our car club stops here some Friday nights to top off our night. We usually show up with around 50 people. They're pretty quick and considerate with the exception of a server named Paul who was using inappropriate language around customers.“
“Good location and cool atmosphere for a fast food joint. We go here often for the ice cream. I would not recommend the food. Have some patience because high school kids run the shop, and they may fat finger an order on the register or something. However, we all start somewhere and they do a good job with all things considered. Make sure to tip 'em.“
“I don't live in Iowa City anymore but whenever I'm back for work, Shorts is a place I make sure to stop by. They usually have one of my favorite beers on draft--Blonde Fatale. Their menu has a variety of burgers which can all be subbed out for grilled chicken or a veggie patty. Their fries are some of my favorite I've had, and I love to have a good dipping sauce with my fries so I usually ask for the garlic aioli. They also have shorts sauce on the table which is mildly spicy with good flavor. The restaurant is small and dark, so if you come during busy hours you may have to wait a bit for your table.“
“I had a black bean burger with fries, others had breaded pork tenderloin, burgers and fries. All very good. Farm to table Iowa food. Locally sourced. The fries are very good. Friendly service. Plenty of TVs to catch the game. Delicious burgers!“
“The classic burger, the fries, and the shakes are all wonderful. The tenders were not what I expected. They were very small as compared to the ones I used to order back home, but the quality and flavor were great. Customer service is top-notch and served with a smile! The atmosphere is so comfy, upbeat, and clean! I love this place!“
