Our second attempt we went on a Saturday right when they opened. We were greeted at the door and were told we can pick where we want to sit. It was decorated really cute for the theme everywhere, they had couches, more regular dining tables, barrel tables and bar seating. We opted for a barrel table. The menu for food and drinks were all changed to be named after SB related references which was really fun. We ordered a few drinks, mocktails and food. The food is more so bar food, bites. We ordered pickle roll up's, chicken lettuce wraps, onion rings and they were all very basic and imo not worth it for the prices. I'd prefer to eat some where before and then come here for drinks. The drinks were decent. A lot of them had bitters, which I'm not a fan of at all but I know it's very common at cocktail bars. I did find a few without and went with those. One was called campfire song song. It was like a s'mores espresso martini which I loved. Our waitress was really nice, attentive and in tune with the theme. I loved her enthusiasm. Overall it was really cute and I can tell beyond the theme it's a cute place to grab drinks with friends. I'd for sure come back for other themes or just to just out the normal vibe.

You wouldn't believe this cozy lounge was nestled in this strip mall in Otsego. We chose a few different drinks - a few signature cocktails, a flight from the specials menu, and a glass of Prosecco. The names were clever, the drinks were unique, and the staff was knowledgeable. The Parmesan Truffle Fries were crispy, meaty, and the jalapeño sauce gave them a nice kick. The Cowboy Corn Poppers (not pictured) were crunchy on the outside while creamy and flavorful on the inside. This was the perfect way to end the night with friends. We will definitely be coming back.

My wife and I were in the area looking to buy a car and stopped here for lunch. The menu looked…read morepretty good when I Googled for food in the area, so we decided to give this place a try. I will say, the decorator for this place did one heck of a job. Lots of neat little northwood touches. Old beer cans, rustic wood trim, and old hunting and outdoor equipment lined the walls. Gave the place a really nice touch. The menu also had a great northwoods theme to it. We came right at noon but the place wasn't too packed. We were quickly seated and waited upon. Our waitress checked on us multiple times and was thoughtful and kind to the group. One of the neat things at this place was their kid's play box. Our son liked picking out a couple of tiny toys to enjoy during our lunch. It kept him busy and us sane. Great idea! The menu offered mostly bar and supper club fare (which is exactly what we were looking for) and we decided upon burgers. I ordered the Bourbon Burger and my wife decided upon the State Fair Burger (get this - fried pickles, onion rings, and cheese curds all on top). The burgers were cooked perfectly, I asked for medium rare and it was perfectly medium rare. The burgers were moist, juicy and filling. My wife said she liked her burger but all of the fried toppings made it very rich. For a burger you enjoy with beer, it would be a great pairing. There are not many choices in Nowthen but this place would be a great spot for a bite to eat or drink, no matter if you were in town or in the Elk River area.

So nice to have a decent restaurant just a few minutes from home. Food is usually pretty good with…read moredecent sized portions. New ownership is still figuring things out - our only concern is the lack of low tables - sooo many high tops for an aging clientele. We are lucky if we get a table where our feet can touch the ground on bingo night. And our friends with walkers/canes are out of luck. Those who like high tops can still sit at regular tables but those of us with knee or leg problems have no option but to go home when there are so few regular tables. I'm hoping they figure this out before all the tables are high tops.

But they just don't seem to have that attention to detail. The serving staff is spotty - usually friendly, but not top notch. And let's talk about something that bugs us. Multiple times when we ordered the french fries they've come out burnt or in a pile of 1 inch long potatoes. The french fries are delicious and a highlight of the experience, but why they have trouble consistently giving you a nice serving of fries, I don't understand. Additionally, the last two times we've been there we've had to fight off fruit flies. Once - I can understand - a second time, swatting off and slapping fruit flies is not okay. Tipsy - you can do better.

A food truck was stationed outside and, not that it really matters, but the playlist over the speakers was solid. Not too loud, and full of early 2000's alternative rock. We really enjoyed our time and were able to have full conversations across the table without raising our voices. I opted for a seltzer which was crisp and refreshing. My original choice was not available, but what I ended up with was perfectly fine. I appreciate that they have a large rotating menu, so there's always an opportunity to try something new/different. I didn't realize that they also have a back room. I walked by and noticed people playing bags. I'm not sure if it's a league or open for all, but it looked like a good time.
