The salad bar on Friday and Saturday is a classic salad bar with fresh local veggies and all the old classics. Fresh bacon bits and croutons. Soups are amazing. Love the staff. I love the atmosphere, it reminds me of a VFW but no smoking . Just a great Americana steakhouse.

Pretty solid place for pub grub. I typically grab a burger and a beer. Servers are nice and prompt.read more

Visitor from Sacramento, CA…read more The night of my trip to the Lucky Dog, I was having a Bass Ale at Jim's Tap in brookings and catching up with my old friends. My buddy told me that a mutual acquaintance had been scouring the area within a half hour to find the best hamburger. "Interesting," I said, "what did he find?" "Well," my buddy replied, "he has it narrowed down to two places. The first is the Lucky Dog in Volga." "That's where we had lunch," I said. "The other is Lemke's in Aurora," he replied. "And that's where we had dinner." (My parents have been retired for years and share the passion for a great burger. This was their go to spot as well. Make no mistake. The cover does not match the book here.) The Lucky Dog is relatively small. It is a bar and grill. The dining/ bar area is is functional, adorned with the typical football schedules and happy hour announcements, but I wouldn't say cluttered. Everything appeared to be clean and well-maintained. Service was cheery and brisk. I ordered a Cowboy burger, mi esposa ordered the (basic) hamburger, add cheese. There are a couple of reasons I'm giving this place a five star review. The first one is that, other than this place being located in Aurora, I couldn't find anything wrong with it all. Clean restrooms, comfy seats, decent beer selection, kitchen looked clean. And the only reason I dislike it being in Aurora is that I can't get the delicious burgers they sell here more often. I suspect that the beef in the sandwich was either hand ground or at least very high quality and hand cut from a roll of beef (if you know, you know). I would guess it was a little over a 1/3 lb patty, but as it was cooked immaculately to a touch under medium and lost zero moisture to the flat-top, hard to say. The bun was tidy and perfectly performed its function of allowing me to hold the sandwich without making a mess. It was fresh and pillowy. The onion ring was crispy and delicious. The barbeque sauce rich and intoxicating. To an extent, there was a factor of more is less. The sandwich was neither too big nor too small. Just tidy, efficient and a bulls-eye shot to my happy place. You don't have to rewrite culinary history when you make a menu item. You need to honor its ingredients, and this sandwich absolutely did just that. Thank you so, so much Lucky Dog.

One cost $7 and the other one $8. After that I changed my mind and did not order an entree. I had to go back on my word that I was taking my grandson out for lunch. The place could have been a whole lot cleaner. I wouldn't say it was filthy but I wouldn't say it was clean. The menus were actually sticky and had food and gunk stuck to them. The waitress was perky and friendly and running around doing her best to keep everyone attended to. When I told her that the food she brought out was subpar and I wasn't happy with it, she said that it was fine but she would get me replacements. It was moments later she came back with food that looked exactly the same. I told her that I wasn't convinced it wasn't the same food... I swear it was just a burnt as burnt looking as before but it turned out she was right. This time the mini corn dogs were burnt on the outside and still frozen in the middle. My son-in-law, the chef, tells me that it was because the oil was old and rancid. Apparently this gives all food the appearance of being burnt with a bad taste. What I didn't appreciate was that I was asked to pay for food that anybody would have raised an eyebrow at and treated like I was the problem. The cook even came out of the kitchen and tried to nonchalantly check out who I was. When I met her I she gave me a dirty look and marched back off into the kitchen. Not recommended. I won't ever go back. If they don't know enough to know that they're serving people bad food or have the professionalism to own up to it when they have, then I have no time for them.
