They advertise on their face book page to come join them and warn up for the Vikings Monday night wild card game. Game starts at 7 and at 7:30 I show up to find they are closing the kitchen. I walked out instead of feeling like an inconvenience they would have to reopen for me. Why have posted business hours when you going to just make them up and why say come join them for a Vikings game and close the kitchen an hour and half early. Very frustrating!!

Great atmosphere, very friendly service, drinks were great, fried chicken was spot on, but, the ribs need some work. They are bland and the sauce is slapped on it.

First time here and thought the food was very good and it was a very cozy atmosphere with great service. Sat in booth in dining room and it wasn’t too busy. Had the walleye special with a baked potato, it was filling and delicious. As someone who fishes I could tell the walleye was authentic as you’d have to watch for bones every so bite, so if that’s not your thing I recommend a different dish. The cheese curd appetizers were amazing and tasted just like state fair cheese curds, nice and hot and very delicious. Server was very friendly as well. I highly recommend this place, I went on a Friday afternoon for
Lunch and there was plenty of seating in dining room.

Had a wonderful waitress named Emily. She really made the night. Just make sure the prime rib is not over cooked. Emily noticed and next time will ask for a new one.

Undoubtedly, the WORST service I've ever had at this place. We came early to avoid the rush. The hostess was gabbing with a customer at the front for a good minute before taking them to their table. She was gone for 3 to 5 minutes with them and finally came back to seat us. Our waitress was okay. She just didn't seem to have her head in the game. I noticed a couple of her other tables had received incorrect orders. It won't affect my coming here....this time!! Also, roll(s) should come with the
Entrees. My girlfriend and I both had the Prime Rib special (medium rare) with the (should be world famous) AuGrautin potatoes. Excellent dinner once we received it.

We went to Tom's Pumpkin Patch and stopped here for an early dinner afterwards. All of the staff were so friendly and accommodated our 4 adults and 4 kids wonderfully! The food was great and so reasonably priced. We'll come here again!
