| - Dakota Tavern is a charming but small live music venue that serves food. I went there for their Bluegrass Brunch. The group performing was very entertaining. The staff is friendly and accommodating. The brunch, however, favored quantity over quality. Admittedly, at $14.00 for all you can eat fruit, scrambled eggs, sausage, home fries and pancakes, perhaps your expectations shouldn't be too high. Nevertheless, without increasing their per serving costs, execution could have been better. Since everything but the fruit is served on a platter at once, it may not be surprising that some of the items arrived less than piping hot. The pancakes (on this day, blueberry) were cool and tough (batter over-beaten in the kitchen?). The sausage was unappetizing and the scrambled eggs (with diced red pepper) were not especially appealing. The best part of the meal was the home fries. Bottom line: enjoy the environment and the music, but go with low expectations for the food.
