    Wings
    Susan S.

    Great vibes excellent hamburger and wings were good. Service good. Fun place for a date night or friend gathering.

    If you're after a great Juicy Lucy in Minnesota, Blue Door Pub totally delivers. For anyone new to MN, a Juicy Lucy is a burger with the cheese stuffed inside the patty--melty, juicy, and so good in every bite. Blue Door doesn't worry about who started it--they just make it awesome. Try the Classic, Bacon, or Santa Fe paired with tots (personal preference) and always check the daily specials. With three Twin Cities spots (the original in St. Paul), it's perfect for families or grabbing food before a game.

    Curds 10/10
    David M.

    Over the years I have been to the other locations, but this was my first time I've been to this location. From past experiences, this would be my favorite location. Maybe the menu has changed and I had no idea, or this location has it right. We tried the cheeseburger and fries combo, the Sunday $5 clucker special, and their cheese curds. Every single bite was delicious. I cannot stop thinking about that meal! Their cheese curds were not overly greasy like I had experienced at other locations in the past. Also, a $5 fried chicken sandwich is an insane deal - AND it was one of the best sandwiches I've ever had. The star of the show for me was the cheeseburger. I split this, but next time I'm being selfish and getting my own. Cooked great - with a little pink, and paired with onions and pickles... it became my new fixation. Key takeaways - on Sundays they offer the $5 clucker special and on Wednesdays they offer the 1/2 priced cheeseburger special. I will definitely be back! Friendly service and a great meal guaranteed.

    Quiet afternoon at the Blue Door on a Sunday in September. We were seated in a booth. The place isn't that huge. We were hoping to watch a certain NFL team but they only had the regular channel options (not the NFL ticket or Redzone) so GB/Detroit game was the winner. Wish there was a way for bars to advertise what games they'll show before sitting down. The Blue Door has two locations in the TC's. The service was okay, nothing spectacular. We ordered some Smoky Bandit wings which absolutely were delish and a big basket of fries for the table to share.

    $5 fried chicken sandwich (Sunday special)
    Nicole G.

    Rainy Sunday evening called for yummy bar food. Blue Door Pub has been on my list to try for years and last night I finally tried it, and I'll be returning. Visited a little before 7pm and happy to see the place wasn't busy. Greeted right after we walked in and sat at a booth near the bar. Enjoyed some refreshing water on the rocks. Lots to pick from on the menu. A few different appetizers we were eyeing, but decided on cheese curds and wow, those were hittin' the spot. Served hot, fresh, cheesy, light batter, and non-greasy. Perfect starter! Next, we enjoyed our entrees. Ordered the $5 fried chicken sandwich meal and a classic double cheeseburger with fried onions and pickles, and the burger came with fries. YUMMMOOOO! Honestly, the burger is one of the best I've had in sometime. It was flavorful, juicy, ooey cheese, and soft bun. Absolutely delicious! The fried chicken sandwich was excellent as well and HUGEEEE. The only addition it needed was pickles and lots of them. Service from Tessa was good. She was friendly and helpful, didn't check in too often, but still good. It's nice to see a spot offering specials a few times during the week. I'll definitely come back on a Sunday or Wednesday to enjoy the specials. Great first visit.

    Tater Tot burrito with avocado sour cream (only served on Thursday)
    Haley D.

    I went there because my friend recommended their burritos that they have weekly and it was delicious - and total was only $10 which is fairly reasonable! I got it to go and the service was quick and very nice! The ambiance of the place was also nice - even though I didn't stay long!

    Cheese Curds
    Keto K.

    I sat down at the bar. The bar top was filthy with crumbs everywhere. I sat there for 15 minutes before any employee asked me if I needed anything. Finally, the older black male working there asked me what I wanted something, in a rude way. I looked over to my left and saw a guy eating cheese curds that looked pretty good, so I ordered them. I also ordered a beer that had no head at all because he poured it wrong. My waiter had no personality and never smiled. He never asked how the food was or anything. He never wiped down the bar top when people left. He definitely should not be a bartender. I got my cheese curds fast and hot, but they were not good at all. The cheese curds were all stuck together, way too salty, and most were hollow inside. They don't give you enough sauce. Now I know why the guy next to me only had a couple of bites. I definitely didn't finish mine. What a waste of $30!!!

    Size 7 IPA - Steel Toe Brewing

    Blue Door Pub has been a long time favorite of mine. While the original location in St. Paul was by far my favorite (RIP), all the locations, including this one on Como Ave, have a great vibe about them. My last visit was later on a Sunday evening for dinner with my significant other. The restaurant was overall pretty quiet with a few sat tables and one or two people at the bar. We were immediately greeted by the server and he took our drink orders. He was attentive to our table throughout the entire meal and super friendly. I ordered a burger, wings, and fries green beans. All of which were outstanding. I don't make it to Blue Door often but when I do I always enjoy my food. Blue Door is a great spot to visit if you are looking for a friendly atmosphere with a decent selection of local craft beer and above average pub fare.

    Burger and tots
    Sami G.

    Quick lunch stop to go. Haven't been here before so it was great to walk in to a super clean and friendly area and staff. Ordered the suggested bacon blucy with a side of tots. The burger was so fresh and done perfectly and tots were exactly how they should be-crunchy outside and soft inside. Fun interior with local art and lots of screens with sports showing. Love it! Def recommend and will stop by again!

    Vesuvius with Hand-Cut Fries
    Anthony M.

    I saw this place on Man vs Food (or maybe its sister location), but it was close enough to my hotel. Took a quick Lyft here and I gotta say, it was probably the best Juicy Lucy I have had. It might not be the original, but they have elevated to new levels! I had the Vesuvius which was stuffed with a five pepper cheese and topped with a fried avocado and some spicy bacon. It was delicious and spicy, but not TOO spicy. I paired it with a healthy portion of fries thrown into their house smoked BBQ rub. That was the surprise of the meal since it gave the decent fries an extra UMPTH. As for the service, you need to order by phone which I thought was a little weird. The process was fine so I really can't complain about that, but it took away from the service interaction. It also took a little longer than I expected, but I wasn't in any hurry and I am willing to wait if the food is that good. If you are by UMN and don't want to trek all the way to the birthplace of the Juicy Lucy, this is the place for you! I found the burger to be seasoned well and had the right balance of ingredients. Seems like a good place to hang out and watch the game. I saw families in there too so its for everybody!

    Cheeseburger and fries.

    Great $5 cheeseburger on Wednesdays. I got fries with and my bill was less than 10 bucks. Beat that McDonalds.

    George & The Dragon is a super cool restaurant that my hubby and I tried for a double date night…read morewith our friends. We came on a Monday night at 6:15pm. This place does get busy so definitely keep that in mind. Luckily I made reservations ahead of time so we had a table waiting for us, otherwise we would have been put on a waiting list since it's a small space. They put us in a corner booth which was nice and spacious enough for 4 people so I'd definitely recommend asking for a booth verse a table if you're planning to come with a larger group. The servers are all very friendly and helpful. I appreciated their attentiveness and sharing what they like best, especially for what's in season based on the time of year. The menu has quite a bit of variety too which is sometimes unexpected when you come to a pub-style location. For appetizers we got Onion Ring and Fried Pickles. They were both really good and served with dipping sauces. Definitely both shareable items so if you're in a group they'd be great options! My entree I chose the Wild Alaskan Sockeye Salmon served with lemon soy marinade, creamy cucumbers, and jasmine rice -- it was SO good!! I loved the creaminess of the cucumbers especially with the rice and than the lemon soy marinade was just a unique touch to the salmon. Toned the flavors down without overpowering acidity. And the salmon was so dreamy, a beautiful pink color that you just knew it wasn't a farm raised salmon. Plus the portion was very generous!! I'd definitely recommend the Alaskan Sockeye Salmon to anyone interested in visiting here. #eatwildsavewild The only negatives (which are more so just knowledge bombs for you): * Restaurant is VERY loud. It's hard to hear because it is one small room that everyone plus the bar is in. I wished I would have took a picture to show what I mean. Just know that if it's an intimate setting you're looking for this is not the place. So be prepared to talk loudly over the loudness and ask "excuse me?" or "repeat that" many times throughout your visit because you're not going to hear everything. * Timed eating. Because this place is a hit with limited seating, once you get a table and complete your meal/payment you'll kindly be asked to leave so that they can clean up and open the table to next in line. Totally get that and am not put off by this at all, but I could see how it could catch some folks off guard especially if you are out for a meal with folks you may not see frequently-- so just keep that in mind. This is not the place to sit and talk post meal. * Parking is limited. Be prepared to walk a few blocks as the road parking in front of the business is pretty limited especially with the other stores and restaurants in the area. Regardless of those few bullets I highly recommend folks visit George & The Dragon. It's a really cool spot and the food was great! Plus theirs a malt shop right next door that looks yummy too, so definitely worth visiting and getting malts after for dessert.
