    Turkey (Half) -- soaked in oil on the outside
    Mike B.

    The quality of Bo Didds is slipping. This use to be favorite sandwich all the way back to my college days at SJU. I feel they are cutting back on ingredients and the subs aren't as tasty as they use to be. In this visit they had the sandwich ready to go moments after I ordered. Nice surprise. But they obviously didn't take care to how they prepared it. I opened it up and it was soaking in oil on the outside. I had to take napkins to soak up the oil that was around the sandwich. Inside was super dry (all the oil was on the outside) and no flavor. I also asked for no onions and, of course, they had onions on it. I took two bites and did something I've never done with a Bo Didds sub--I threw it out. I'll stop back. Hopefully this was a one off. Please make sure your employees are making the sandwiches like they have been doing for years before.

    Half Italian Sandwich
    Sarah B.

    Saw Bo Diddley's on a list of best sandwiches in the Minneapolis area so I had to check it out while I was in town. Located in a strip mall with a very large parking lot. Typical sandwich shop setup - order at one end of the counter and wait for it at the other end. We were there at lunchtime and service was quick. We got a half club and a half Italian to go. There was a good ratio of meat to toppings on the sandwich but I do feel like there was too much bread. It was very tasty, just seemed like too much of the sub was bread. Also they were heavy on the oil on the sandwiches so ask for light oil if that isn't your thing. The sandwich was fine, but nothing I have to eat again. Seems a little pricier than your chain sandwich shop, but about the same quality. I'd check out a different lunch spot before I stopped here again.

    Italian sub with everything on it
    Nell B.

    Very welcome addition to the neighborhood - we needed a quick place to stop that wasn't greasy. We went around 4:00pm on their opening day. The place was very clean, bread was just being delivered, and staff was all very friendly and helpful. About 10 sandwich options, which all come with the same standard toppings (provolone & swiss-American cheese, lettuce, tomato, onion, mild banana pepper, pickle, mayo, and homemade spiced oil) - but you can pick and choose if you want anything left off. I wish they had hot giardiniera or peppers of some sort! In addition to the sub staples, they also offer pitas (5 options), gyro, shawarma, soups, random snacks, and homemade desserts. Sandwiches are served either as a whole, a half, or a third sizes. I just got an italian "third", it was $5 and SO MUCH FOOD! I really enjoyed it. The third a sub and a bag of chips was around ~$7.00. Welcome to the neighborhood!

    Great sandwiches Bread is awesome and I think you will agree it's worth the trip and price

    Top and bottom crust torn off

    First time to Bo Diddleys and I found the staff to be very friendly. My sister and I ordered a large Turkey sandwich and we split it. I was surprised at how large the sandwich was, very big! Bit into my half and the bread was what killed it for me, it was too much bread and the crust was just not that good. My sister came up with a great Bo Diddleys hack (see pictures). She peeled off the top crust of the bread and I did both top and bottom which made the sandwich absolutely delicious! I'm sure this is a great place and we ordered only one item so they get 4 stars.

    Great sandwiches. Friendly staff. We ordered the Greek Gyro and the Schwarma. Both were very tasty! Priced right for size and value. This is our 2nd time eating there this week if that tells you anything!

    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.

Cheese curds - 8.5/10 Really good center and sauce, needed more breading and crunch on the exterior to match the quality of the state fair. Burger - 7/10 Solid for a pub burger, bun slightly more charred than I like, inner bites better than edges. To be fair, I'm realizing that a pub burger has a lower ceiling than a good smash burger so you know my preferences. Parlour and Five Guys are 10's to me. Fries - 8/10 Extra crispy, pretty good but somehow lacking the same flavor of other places like Bon Chon or Spitz that also use the double fry/heavy batter method. Stir Fry Bowl - 6.5/10 - very soy forward and salty, reminds me of a wok place where you walk up and choose your ingredients. Could have used less sauce or maybe sub for teriyaki Chocolate Lava Cake - 9/10 Delicious! Perfect ratio of cake to ice cream and whipped cream. Quality ice cream and great way to end the meal. Service and atmosphere were great. Certainly a bonus to use their date night deal which I think was an app, two entree, and dessert for $40.

Beckett's in uptown and Meteor Bar in Northeast are great examples of bars, both with food, that consistently go later no matter what. granted they are both in Minneapolis, so different customer base. come here, support this local establishment! they are good, just not great though they could be!! p.s. yes i am writing this from the bar, and just an update: my bill confirmed their happy hour is NOT running tonight. :/ granted the bartender never said there was happy hour and those menus weren't out, so i suspected as much. but i came for the happy hour, including food, and got neither. first world problems for sure!

The Guinness cheeseburger is an open-faced burger topped with fries, Guinness cheese sauce, and, of course, bacon.
