    Love it. My favorite bar in Shakopee. I don't know why Turtles is so popular when you wait twenty minutes for a bartender...

    Good Happy Hour, 2 for 1 on beers. The place is friendly and strictly a watering hole. Never been unhappy at Arnie's.

    This is bbq heaven! First...you need to know I'm a bbq snob. I'm very picky about flavors,…read moretenderness, smokiness, etc. Mr Pigs delivers! We had ribs, pulled pork, brisket, and sausage. All of it was delicious! The brisket was extraordinarily tender. The sausage had a delicious kick to it and was juicy. The pulled pork had a wonderful smokiness to it and didn't need any bbq sauce. The restaurant itself is very clean and everyone was very friendly. Oh...and the Diet Coke was great! We will be back! Chef's kiss!

    I do like bbq and ordered three bone ribs. Ample parking. Big liquor menu. They have zero sugar…read morecocktails "Carbliss" vodka cocktail good for keto. You get 1 side and corn muffin and can order many varieties from greens, Mac and cheese, and many more. Had reservation got seated early in four top with view out window. They do have booths. They were giving free beer samples from a company. I took . Very good. Had coleslaw,, greens and generous portions Wide variety of menu items . They gave chicken too! I like my ribs crispier but they tasted good and fall off the bone. They bring sauces and a great variety. Service very good and good came fast. Dark moody atmosphere very nice. Host was on the phone when we arrived and we had to wait a few minutes for her to get off. The seater just stood there waiting for her direction so cross training would be good so the guest does not wait. The booth opposite our table full of supplies And promo stuff and their mail. Tacky. Prices reasonable extra dudes alacarte Al in all ok meal but not on my have to go there again. Big cloth napkins nice.

    Great ambience!! I came for a tropical themed party loved the vibe in the event space it connects…read moreto a long indoor patio area that has a fireplace! I think it was perfect during happy hour and then could turn off when the dancing started. Food: The jerk chicken egg rolls were huge and had great flavor. Also enjoyed the little sliders. The meat on the skewers was a super weird texture like almost a mushy bite maybe it was like a vegan meat I wasn't sure. The service at the bar was a bit slow at times there was two back there but the staff worked really hard at the end as the party went late and the staff was awesome cleaning up around us til the last minute so thanks for that!!! I liked the rum punch I had and the back space looked small but still fit a Photo Booth, the food table and dj table

    If you read the last part of my first review, you'll see that I unfortunately was afraid they…read morewould do exactly what they did. We went back today and while it was still good, definitely wasn't as good as it was last time. The jerk chicken plate removed the beans, changed the rice, and got rid of the sauce so it wasn't as good though it was a bit less dry than last time. They also removed the Ropa Vieja from the menu which was our favorite. My husband had the Cuban sandwich and was not impressed. The fries with it were good. The drinks were still great. Service was friendly but slow (drinks, food, and waitress all slow). Another in our party got the blackened salmon which was really good. Unfortunately, I was so nervous they would remove or change the menu to be worse, which is a common theme I've noticed with 4 different restaurants by these owners now, so I was so bummed to see that's exactly what happened. Such a cool vibe, great drinks, and a really cool new patio - but the food needs a bit of work - bring back the Ropa Vieja and the better jerk chicken!

    Continually amazing!…read more We stopped in here the other night for the tried and true fish and chips. O'Brien's Public House always has some of the best fish... however you like it. My husband got the fish tacos for the first time and loved them.. It was a really healthy portion and even had some leftovers. I stuck with my favorite, the cod & chips,these are always amazing! Our server was very friendly and it was a pretty slow night but great service overall. Can't wait to stop back again and enjoy even more food!

    I'll make this one short. I was appalled by the service and quality of food. Not sure what changed…read moreover the years, but I will not be back. It was not busy and we had to wait for about 10 minutes to be sat. We were looked at and not acknowledged. Makes the mind wonder why. The bartender/waitress was short and rude and when I had an issue paying my bill on their online portal, she tried to make a joke that "she didn't want to talk to me", but it came off completely transparent. I ordered the beef stroganoff and it was bland. The worst part? There were 4 of the smallest hunks of meat in the entire dish. I love mushrooms, but there were about 30 of them in there. I'd rather have meat, especially since the dish is listed at $22. The only thing that went well was the fries and their house ranch. Since I can get good fries at a lot of other locations that treat you with respect, I'll head there.

    Great food, great service, there's not much I would change!…read more Mr. Pig Stuff recently moved into a new location and I have to begin by saying, their new space is beautiful. It's gives off a modern whiskey house/southern rustic vibe. Plenty of indoor seating and a cute patio with an indoor/outdoor bar top. I have eaten here 3 times in the past few months and my experience has been the same each time, wonderful! My two favorite meals are the Smoked Chicken Wings and The Pile sandwich. The chicken wings: I'm the type to always sauce up any wing I get. Pig Stuff's wings will come out dry rubbed with your sauce in the side. At first I was hesitant but now I know why! Their dry rub is fantastic! The flavors are Smokey, savory, and salty - easily eaten on their own. The meat is very juicy and falls off of the bone! (8.5/10) The Pile: this is a sandwich consisting of brisket, pulled pork, Mac & cheese, and coleslaw. It's a monster of a sandwich and could definitely make a mess but OMG it is tasty! The sandwich comes with BQQ sauce, but who needs it when you have the juiciness of the pork, smokiness of the brisket, creaminess of the Mac & cheese, and the tang of coleslaw! It's almost hard not to finish this sandwich. (9/10) Another favorite are their fries. Fresh, crispy, and well seasoned. You can also get them as garlic parm fries where they drizzle their wing sauce across the top - YUM. (8/10) Lastly, the service here has always been impeccable. You're greeted with a smile by everyone. I have yet to meet a server or bartender that wasnt engaging. Looking forward to coming back around!

    Visited for a late afternoon lunch on a Saturday. The whole area seems pretty new and being built…read moreup to serve the amphitheater crowd. When we stopped in there were a few people but lots of open spots. We ordered the queso and cracklins and split a two meet sampler. The queso had a bit of a kick. The sampler we got was brisket and ribs. Both meats were good and well flavored. Sides were beans and mashed potatoes. Beans seemed a little undercooked but mashed potatoes were great. There were two bbq sauces on the table and one was pretty mild and sweet but was very tomato forward and reminded me of more like a flavored ketchup. The spicy one was better but not something I'd choose. Meats were better without the sauce in my opinion. Service was fine- nothing great but nothing to complain about. If we are in the area and in the mood for bbq again, we'd probably give it another try.
