I had a burger that was mostly a big, fluffy bun with an itty bitty burger on it. The meat was bland except for a slightly bitter taste. My friend had the walleye which was not good and tasted like it had been frozen for a very long time. The curly fries were great. Neither of us finished anything but our curly fries. All of the customers we saw appeared to be "regulars," and they all ordered pizza. If you're brave enough to try this place, I'd recommend trying the pizza. The decor is typical Minnesota bar/restaurant: deer heads and fish hanging on the walls, the bathrooms are labelled "Doe" and "Buck," there's sports stuff everywhere, etc. The bathrooms were disgusting and looked like no one had ever used a toilet brush in the toilets - ever. Our waitress was very friendly. My friend and I were the only ones in there except for people who appeared to be close friends of the owners/staff. At one point, with only one other "customer" in the place (an uncle of one of the staff), an employee started talking loudly about how a mutual friend's daughter got a deer tick in her hip three days ago, how it had become deeply embedded, needed medical treatment, graphic descriptions of deer tick bites, and how when you "snap off the heads of deer ticks, you can really hear them snap." My friend and I were eating less than ten feet away from them. The juke box and Buck Hunter video game appeared to be broken. When a group of the employee's friends came in, one was already slurring his speech. They joked about how he drove there and was "just getting started drinking," and then they served him more alcohol. He said "We need some tunes," so the employee plugged in the juke box and video game.
Haven't had a bad meal here! Excellent walleye, hand-cut homemade onion rings, and best of all, all you can eat ribs on Friday nights. They fall off the bone in such a way that when you are done eating, you have nothing more than a plate full of completely clean bones. Not only fantastic food, but good, friendly people!
