Beacon Wood's Family Restaurant — Restaurant in Florida

April 1, 2022 Updated Review

Not my favorite place to eat, but the group I go with likes it, so...

Hit or miss with one, particular waitress as to whether or not she'll have an attitude, but other waitresses are nice.

Hopefully when YOU go, there won't be someone rudely (and LOUDLY) listening to an audiobook behind your booth.

I looked over the booth top and it was an elderly (very elderly) man, so I didn't say anything.

Before anyone says the obvious (he was probably hearing impaired) I am as well ...except mine is neurological, so I can't understand speech. Trying to understand the soft spoken member of our group is a strain as I'm still honing my lip reading skills.

Not that I expect special treatment, but some common courtesy from others is always nice.

Loads of food, so you get your money's worth, at least.

She snarkily told us that they can't enforce anything due to the governor lifting the ban.

I informed her that, as a privately owned restaurant, THEY set their rules for their establishment, NOT the governor and it's not unreasonable to ask people to wear a mask for the 10 seconds it takes for people to walk into a restaurant and be seated.

Her attitude worsened and she said she'd send the owner over. He/she never appeared.

It's frustrating to try and help people keep their restaurants from being held hostage by inconsiderate people thinking the rules don't apply to them and rather than being grateful, they get nasty.

It's still up in the air whether or not we'll go back.

THIS time, we were seated far enough away from people to be too concerned. Next time we might not be so lucky and...as an elderly heart patient, my husband just can't take...

Not a 4.5 star reviewed restaurant.

I'm rarely in Hudson but I winded up there around 11 after errands. This restaurant is family owned and I thought they would have spaghetti and meatballs. While the menu was very american with a huge focus on hamburgers and fried food but alas no spaghetti.

So I thought I'd do the safe thing was to order iced tea a small side salad and the soup if the day. The salad was as expected neither great amd also neither an afterthought. The iced tea tasted a tad like instant so I suspect most customers go for soft drinks.

The beeglf barley soup didn't have any meat except for a few strings of meat u could see in microscope. The flavor was beefy and nice but no meat. I'm 100 percent certain it was homemade since I can't see cysco selling beef barley soup with no meat.

Then I gave them a card that required a pin that I never use or remember so I had to put it on another card which my accountant hates.

So lesson to me skip hudson and drive a few miles south to...

Found this little place hidden in the corner with THE CUTEST cow print booth seats!! We walked in today and it was a PACKED HOUSE! The wait staff did an AWESOME job taking care of each and every customer. I ordered a bacon (extra crispy), egg, & cheese croissant and well done home fries. My order came out PERFECT! My honey order his usual 2 eggs over medium, bacon, grits and toast and of course his was perfect as well! We don't eat breakfast often, but when we're heading up this way to shop, we stop in here. Keep your eyes peeled because if you pass the Uhaul place, you've gone too far. (And don't worry if it doesn't LOOK like anyone is there...just give it a minute....they're probably just getting up!) The ladies are ALWAYS so nice and even the regular customers are as well! Definitely give them a try, you...
