About Off the Rails

Off the Rails is a local spot known for having the best birria tacos, bang bang shrimp, wings, and burgers. The restaurant is conveniently located just a couple of short blocks from US Bank Stadium, making it a prime location, especially before Vikings games. The atmosphere is lively, with a DJ on the patio playing upbeat music, creating a fun vibe for game day.

The food is high quality, although some recent reviews mention that certain dishes like the grilled chicken sandwich and tacos can be mediocre and unseasoned, with wait times over 30 minutes. Customers have also noted issues with dirty cups, fruit flies attacking plates, and slow water refills. Service has been described as somewhat disappointing at times, with staff running around but not always attentive. Despite these concerns, the restaurant offers a great beer menu with a good variety on tap, including a special purple Vikings cocktail. The blackberry burger remains a popular choice for its messy but delicious flavor.

Off the Rails hosts happy hours, trivia, dart, and bingo nights, making it a fun spot to hang out after work. For vegetarians, the Beyond Burger and salads are tasty options, although small plates are not available on the menu. With TVs everywhere, a park nearby, and a nice patio area, it’s an ideal place to enjoy meals and drinks, especially before or after games.
