Want tacos? Go somewhere else.

Want good food, great ice cream (frozen custard), with a midwest feel? Well then, welcome to Culver's!!!“

“A absolute gem of a restaurant in White Bear Lake. In town visiting family & so enjoyed our first time here last night. Very cool & well designed with a great vibe, beautiful bar area where you can comfortably dine also. Which is aso the main diningroom with views of the kitchen & Chefs creations. Food was out of the park; 2 chicken entrees & the Walleye-and let's not forgot the delicious chocolate mousse dessert! Will always plan a dinner here we visit again.“

“Decided to go out to dinner last night with the kids. We haven’t lived in Blaine long and decided to try the Tipsy Steer. Food was great but the service was even better. It was busy and the staff were excellent and accommodating to all patrons. Highly recommend.“

“I thought i would give this a try as I was in the area on a Friday night. The casino is small but offers quite a bit of card games for those who enjoy poker, black jack, pai gao and several others. When you first walk in, the bar area and restaurant greet you, I grabbed a seat at the bar and was quickly offered a water and menu. I ordered a club sandwich and fries($10), my sandwich arrived pretty quickly and was delicious. the club is large and filling, and the fries were tasty. If you are looking for a good value in the Forest Lake area, it's hard to pass up Trout Air Tavern but it does come with whole Casino vibe.“

“I work here and it's the best golf course in Minnesota in my opinion the course is very easy to follow the staff is exceptional, it's really clean, and the atmosphere is amazin. I recommend it to anyone who wants to become a member because it's a private course.“

“Sorry for the bad photo's, but the employees here are amazing 👏 Abby is a wonderful server and Raymond is an awesome manager! Today the two greeters saw a customer stuck in the parking lot and went outside to shovel and push them out! Almost made me tear up! Love this Applebee's and the employees!“

“Bennett took our order at the window and was absolutely wonderful! He had the most efficient service and greeted us with the brighter smile. he changed the trajectory of me and my friends nights. This man deserves the highest raise possible. 10/10 service from Bennett.“

“Great food with great prices. A solid environment to enjoy a good meal. We go for Rotary meetings every month and they are very gracious to us.“

“Not an inexpensive fast food restaurant but their burgers are very good! They have prepacked pints of ice cream in many, many flavors. The ice cream is so rich and creamy....a must if you go!
The location is very clean and staff are friendly.“

“Great Customer Service! Friendly and professional. Food is always fresh! Love the assistant manager! I eat/order at Culver twice a week!“

“My son and I stopped in for dinner as I had a gift card to use. Our server Andrea was wonderful! We ordered our food and it arrived looking great! My son liked his salad a lot and my Rueben, while not traditional, was tasty. I was sadly less than impressed with the Maple Bacon Brussels I got with my sandwich and let Andrea know. She let her manager know right away and they both were SO kind and thanked me for letting them know my concerns. They offered us a piece of chocolate cake (which was super yummy!) to make up for the side not being so great. Amazing customer service! We will be back!“

“My husband and I have been going to the blacksmith restaurant for over 40 years. The only item I have had is their chicken which is addicting. They sell more Broasted chicken than anyone else in Minnesota. All their food is great but it is their chicken for me. At least once a week I have to have it. They have a 12 piece to purchase and take out also….we have done that after eating there !!!!!!!“

“Wonderful combo of traditional fare and things you've probably never heard of. Friendly people and beautiful, tasty food.“

“Very nice atmosphere, good food and friendly service“

“Bill you and your team were amazing 👏 The food was absolutely 💯 delicious 😋“

“They serve super tasty, fresh sandwiches, salads and so much more! I love their Oriental salad and Zany Mullany sandwich combo. Open for breakfast too, Service is fast and prices are very reasonable. The staff is so fun -- I always come away happy that I stopped in!“

“We worked with Keys for our wedding, and they made us an absolutely gorgeous cutting cake and multiple sheet cakes with different flavors. The cake was a huge hit and disappeared pretty much immediately. Keys is a fantastic choice for weddings or any event that needs a delicious dessert!“

“Food is good. Stopped in for dinner last night. 12 bucks for a Sam Adams Oktoberfest on tap seems a little excessive.“

“Gigantic servings! Delicious food!“

“The Cubano was excellent, and the waffle fries and seasoned sour cream are better than other local establishments. I had to give props to the cooks. Most bar food is mediocre, but I was so impressed with their food. We had a great Sunday afternoon here chatting with regulars and the staff. Everyone was very friendly. We will be back!“

“Loved this place. Great food and service“

“Amazing atmosphere, great food and reasonably priced. The live music is a plus!!!“

“Thay made right by me , my salad should have came with cashews on the side , but they put them in the salad i can't eat that way ,i brought my salad back up to the counter and they replaced it. Thank you

God bless you all ?“

“Burgers are overcooked here 80% of the time, it's very frustrating. Chicken tenders are always hot and fresh. Fries are nearly always piping hot, which is impressive. If you special order a burger or especially ice cream, you have only about a 40% chance of them getting it right, which is frustrating. When you hit the right day and they don't overcook the burger patties, their Culver's deluxe burgers are 5 stars plus! I would suggest you skip this Culver's and go to Blaine. They don't burn their burgers.“

“I am Sue's sister and she is telling me you are listening to the same pod casters as we are. I wish we could meet. Exciting times! Keep the faith. Q=17! God is in control! Someday we will meet.“

“10/10 would recommend 😁 best sports bar around“

“So many wonderful smells! I created some interesting smells that floated around the restaurant!“

“Absolutely delicious food! I can’t wait to go back“

“Been here when I was younger for dancing. Came back tonight the food my god is good.“
