We have been coming here since they opened and the food & service have been consistently excellent throughout the years. It's a nice little neighborhood bar that we travel 25 miles to get to when we come.
My Minnesota friends say this bar is typical of Minnesota - relatively dark inside with lots of dead animals on the walls. Being vegetarian I tune out the animals and focus on what I like best - the rest of the experience.
My husband is a huge fan of the Friday all-you-can-eat night fish fry. He also loves the fried mini taco's as an appetizer. I don't eat any type of meat so I stick with grilled cheese (pepper jack on rye) and friend zucchini, which is always fantastic. Surprisingly, the salsa here is amazing, even better than many Mexican restaurants.
The service is the best - fast & friendly and they always know how to take care of you whether you're a party of 1 or a group picky group of 8.
There is an indoor (non-smoking) dining area and bar as well as an outside bar and seating area that allows smoking. They have done a wonderful job with the outside bar, which is fully covered, has climate control and great seating. Even on a chilly rainy evening November you will be comfortable out here.

Because of all the pros, parking can be crazy on a Friday night, this place fills up fast!
