The wife and I decided to go to JL beers in Grand Forks, North Dakota. It had a very long bar…read more The inside had about five long tables to seat people and had several TVs for a sports bar feel. I had the Ode to grapefruit American IPA it was smooth and delicious with a hint of grapefruit. We sat at a booth, but waited and waited for Service. 4 other folks came in and sat at the bar. They we're promptly served and actually had their food served to them before the server even came back to take our drink order. We then move to the bar where we were promptly served, drink orders with food. my wife and I split the Nashville chicken and a side of beer, cheese and fries. The Nashville chicken had a good taste however it was pretty thin the beer cheese fries were delicious. However they came out way after our chicken was served. I will give it a 5+ for the beer, A 3 for the food, zero for the Service if you're setting at a table and a three for the prompt, but not too friendly bar made.

It's a dive bar, so I'm not expecting grade A, but have the list available to people. Odd there was a bouncer at the door. Like it's a restaurant. Must get rowdy?? I don't know. It was Saturday at 7pm when we were there, nothing out of the ordinary. Now, this is not our first time eating here. We are from out of town and probably make it to grand forks once a year maybe. The first time we had wings here, out of this world!! This time...soup master zero. Absolutely drowning in sauce. And they were 5000 degrees, so too hot to eat and handle. By the time we were able to eat them, soggy. The wings themselves also, in our humble opinion too big. The drummies where huge!! I dont like them that big, again just adds to the texture problem. We got traditional buffalo level 15. Flavor was excellent and heat was nice and hot, but not challenging. Also got the peanut butter. Fun!! And the jelly side dip was an excellent pairing. Wouldn't want more than 6, honestly 3 would be good as a fun little novelty. The deep fried okra was a hard pass. Bland, soggy, stupid. Don't bother.

We were in town staying at a nearby hotel and needed dinner. We drove over and the place was…read moresurprisingly hopping for a Monday night. We got a booth inside since it was too hot to dine on their veranda. Our waitress was prompt with our orders and my huckleberry mule came out in a reasonable amount of time. The drink itself was OK. It's fruitiness was a bit odd but at $8 it was a good deal. I ordered the boneless wings with the sweet chili sauce. They were quite good. My wife took advantage of their Monday night $5 off all burgers special and got their specialty burger with bacon, peanut butter and a fried egg on it. Sound gross but she liked it though it was a bit overdone at pink since they wouldn't do medium rare. Prices were reasonable though they have a credit card surcharge. The big complaint was how long we had to wait for our food to arrive even though by the time we ordered the crowds had dissipated. It was a looooong time.

Varsity Ice House is officially one of our new go-to spots in Grand Forks!…read more We stopped in on a whim and were seriously impressed. The Bacon Cheeseburger was solid--thick-cut bacon, juicy patty, exactly what you want when you're craving a classic. The sweet potato fries were on point, and the queso fries were dangerously good. One of our favorites of the night was the Firecracker Shrimp--mildly spicy, super flavorful, and honestly way better than we expected from bar food. The whole place has a chill, fun atmosphere, the kind of bar you settle into without even trying. The table next to us ordered wings and they looked incredible... so yes, we're already planning our return trip just for those. Shoutout to Jacob, who closed us out and made sure everything was exactly to our liking. Great service on top of great food = winning combo. Can't wait to go back!

For mains, we had burgers and some of their Chinese dishes. The burgers were decent, better than most of what the others at my table had, but the Chinese food was not good at all. We also ordered drinks, the margarita was fine, but the piña colada was one of the worst I've had. It didn't taste like it had any coconut in it. Service was slow and a bit unorganized, though our server was friendly. The place was fairly clean, started out busy, and then quieted down. The music wasn't really my taste. Prices were higher than what the food was worth. Parking and location were both fine, but I wouldn't recommend this spot.
