They have the best burgers around! The owners are so nice and would help anyone in need. They take chances on people when no one else will and they really care about their employees. I have seen first-hand when someone needed the day off for a funeral or a sick child, they are right there to help out either to cover the shift or find someone who will. They are the most caring employers I have seen. They have true compassion for the staff and customers.

Awesome tuna melt. Pulled pork sandwich was yummy. Paper thin homemade potato chips are a must-try.

Awesome !!! Eat here all the time ! I think fricken wheat should stay home and keep her opinions to her self she is just one of those kinds of people who have to b**ch about nothing look at the chip pic she took they are not burnt in the least ! Would give them a 10 star if possible ! ! !

This would have been my 2nd time dining at Trouble's in Howard Lake this summer. I had a pretty decent experience in July in the afternoon. Unfortunately my father and I had bragged about the place, the service and the food. Our 2nd visit We decided that we would drive an hour from Saint Paul to Trouble's and that my Brother who lives in Pennock Mn would drive an hour and we would eat dinner at Trouble's...it is half way for both of us a perfect meeting place for the future. When questioning the server about burgers, she was pretty knowledgeable and if she did not have the answer she would go get the answer. However when questioning about the juicy Lucy burger I was told that it is stuffed with american... I told her I hate american cheese could it be stuffed with cheddar. She said it could be stuffed with pepper jack or cheddar. My dad changed his order to the pepper jack stuffed jucy lucy, and I ordered a cheddar stuffed and topped with cheddar Juicy Lucy. Receiving the Juicy lucy's, they were both stuffed with American and topped with the ordered cheese. My dad was to hungry to care. I hate american cheese, and I was told I could have it stuffed with cheddar. The server went and asked about the burgers and chef said he cannot stuff with pepper jack or cheddar it melts out of the burger. So far the chef sounds incompetent as several very popular Juicy Lucy burger bars that advertise pepper jack and cheddar stuffed lucy's. They succeed in that why can this chef not? So I sent it back because I was told I could have it a certain way and the chef cooked it his way regardless without even notifying the customer first. PLUS I was Charged for it. I was charged for this Burger that I DID NOT ORDER. I think that was incredibly ridiculous and just screams horrible customer service practices. Other than the burger issues, the chips that came with the burgers that the other family members ordered were burnt. They tasted burnt and looked burnt. Not only is the chef incompetent but blind too? Or do the problems boil down to the owner? I do not know. There is NO informative information regarding the juicy lucy on the menu. Also the menu lacks information about the french fries, they come seasoned, I am allergic to certain seasonings and the menu did not mention anywhere that the fries are seasoned. The pizza I ordered for the children was okay. We got half cheese half pepperoni a 16'' for 15.00. I liked the pizza sauce it was good possibly canned but I do not like tons of seasonings so it worked for me. I am pretty sure the 1st time I was there the server gal had told me they home make their own sauce and dough. The dough is very good. I would buy a package of their dough and cook it at home. So the pizza rolls app was good. The kids loved the pizza pillows app. I thought the cheese curds were pretty disappointing this time around. No one ate the chips that come with the burgers, like I said they were all burnt. My brother and Father finished their burgers. But unfortunately I cannot stand not taking care of your customer. When the employee says something can be done and the chef cooks it his way regardless without giving said customer the opportunity to order something else is putrid. Then to charge that customer for the very thing requested not be on the food.... Yikes. The wow factor did not exist and we will be having or family meetings elsewhere. Customer service is a must have. It over rules dough. We can get good dough from Villa Pizza with similar matching sauce. I have included a copy of my receipt which was over 100.00 as proof of our visit and a picture of the burnt chips. Sorry to our server Tressie who did not get her full tip, she should really talk to her boss about the 9.00 burger that should not have been on the ticket that should be in her pocket.

Very good food. One of a kind!
