    Pistachio croissant
    Beth C.

    We had reservations here for New Year's Eve at 5pm. The place was still mostly empty when we arrived. The restaurant is beautiful inside with a sort of upper class pub vibe, lots of dark wood and accents, plus some pretty quirky artwork as well as local images. Big band and crooner music was on. We were seated at a table that was just barely big enough for two people. We definitely needed to shuffle old dishes off ASAP as more things arrived! We had the meatball appetizer, which was fantastic, though I felt kinda bad that cutting the little bread loaf made a mess, crumbs everywhere. We each had a pizza for our main dish. My husband had the pig & piggy, while I had the mortadel. Truly fantastic pizzas. Great, flavorful dough with a lot of chew, and generous toppings. I found the portion to be quite large. There was an excellent alcohol selection. My husband had a beer, and I was very happy that they had a couple ciders. I asked after dessert (the server did not bring it up), because this was NYE and required something special. They had one item, a pistachio croissant. This is an America-style croissant and quite soft, which was good in that it was easy to cut up and share. The buttery layers were easy to see and taste. The overall flavor reminded me of Dubai chocolate, the pistachio filling extremely sweet. While our initial foods came out quite fast, service lagged near the end as the restaurant filled up. The staff seemed overwhelmed. We were never asked if we wanted more drinks, and we finished off our water pitcher and were never asked if we wanted more. We had to wait a while to get the check, but once we had it, we were able to pay promptly using a QR code. In all, this was a great place with top-notch food. I'd love to come here again on a less-hectic day to hopefully have a better service experience.

    Kelly's Bar & Grill is one of my favorite places in Red Wing. I've eaten there many times over the…read moreyears, and I honestly can't remember ever being disappointed. The food is consistently excellent, the service is friendly and attentive, and it's simply a great place to relax and enjoy a meal. The location on Old West Main is another thing that makes Kelly's special. There's a wonderful view toward the river and the railroad tracks, and I love just sitting there watching the trains go by and taking in the scenery. It has that unmistakable Red Wing atmosphere that makes the whole experience even better. Great food, great service, a beautiful setting, and consistency every time I've been there. I cannot recommend Kelly's highly enough. If you haven't been there, you're missing one of Red Wing's gems.

    I'm shocked to see the rating as high as it is at this establishment...The reason we chose this…read morerestaurant over others, is BECAUSE of the rating.... When we walked in it was busy and the hostess was friendly and estimated the wait time to be around 5 minutes, and it was; which was nice. We were seated in the porch area (there is a garage door that separates it from the rest of the restaurant) and it was sticky. The air was like the outdoors (SUPER humid day) but not as warm; there clearly was no AC. They did have a big ass fan on (that's the brand name I believe ) but it was on so low- you could not feel it. We all ordered drinks and only my husband was asked if he wanted a refill (family of 6 here). Our waitress never checked on us to ask how the food was until she asked if we were ready for our bill. My oldest son ordered a pizza with banana peppers, mushrooms, and pepperoni, and instead he got a pizza with green peppers, no mushrooms, and a little bit of pepperoni. My husband ordered a burger which he said was dry and so dry in fact he had to remove part of his bun (he is NOT a picky eater). I ordered a Rachel. My sandwich was incredibly dry and the only reason I almost finished it was because there was no way I was letting a 15.00 sandwich go to waste.... My oldest daughter ordered a cheese quesadilla and it was comparable to something she could have made herself (age 9) and thrown in the microwave. My youngest daughter (age 3) ordered a grilled cheese and it was so bad that she refused to eat it. I tried it and it tasted like wax. Velveeta cheese does not make a good grilled cheese especially when it's cold by the time you get to eat it. It was inedible, we ended up throwing it away. The only person who got decent food was my second son who ordered a 12" pepperoni pizza. He said it was pretty good. I will say this place serves "bar food". We will not be returning. The waitress did take the messed up pizza off of our bill (we appreciated that) but, if she had checked up on us earlier, he could have just had a new one made... I fully understand that it was busy, but it's still not an excuse for poor service and bad food. I have worked in restaurants from low end to high end, so I know how it works. We would have appreciated a check in from our waitress and a smile at least... She could have been having a bad day, but don't take that out on the customer. At least the hostess was friendly. I also want to add that the menu has way too many options... maybe if there were less options, they could perfect some of their recipes in order for the food to taste better... Sometimes too many options is not a good thing.

I…read morefirst discovered them several years ago, and every experience I've had there has been a good one. Their menu is incredibly extensive, especially for a casual walk-in restaurant. The specialty mac and cheeses are fantastic, with so many different combinations and additions to choose from--including some really indulgent options like lobster. But they certainly aren't a one-trick pony. Their pizzas are wonderful too, and what impresses me most is that despite offering such a large variety of food, they do it all remarkably well. You can dine inside, although I usually get mine to go, and I've always received great food and friendly service. The owner is an absolute pleasure to talk with, and the staff have always made my visits enjoyable. I haven't been in for a little while, but when I do go, it always feels like a treat because I already know I'm going to get something delicious. I've never had a bad meal or a bad experience at Mac Shack & Specialties, and I highly recommend giving this locally owned Red Wing gem a try.

They've got one thing going for them: the food, and miss the mark in all other aspects. Overall I would give this a pass.

The vibes in the front and back are SO different... very cute diner in the front & dive bar in the back. We got a bacon cheese burger, Portabella Mushroom Sandwich, and Au Gratin Potatoes. I LOVED the au gratin & am really happy I ordered it on the side. The portabella was a bit soggy and hard to eat - but actually really tasty! And the bacon cheeseburger was a staple, a really jucy burger! We loved their bloody mary and variety of beers too. The menu is HUGE and im really excited to stop back in!

A couple of observations: cleanliness could be improved. The booth we were seated at had many crumbs and other food particles on the seat. Flies are a bit of a pest buzzing around. I know it's not the restaurant's fault esp during the summer but consistently keeping bugs away from my meal is not an ideal indoor dining experience. For those paying via credit card, there is a 3.5% surcharge. The salmon salad was overly fishy and off-putting. Salmon shouldn't taste that way. The deep dish pizza was a nice shareable entree, full of toppings and very tasty.

It isn't a huge place, and I wouldn't want it to be. It feels intimate, comfortable, and wonderfully authentic with warm and friendly service. There's a sense of history when you walk in. You can almost feel the presence of all the people who have stopped in over the years, shared a drink, had a meal, listened to music, and left a little bit of their story behind. They also have live entertainment from time to time, which fits the atmosphere perfectly. And then there are the pizzas! That's one of my favorite reasons to stop in. They're absolutely delicious and well worth the visit all by themselves. The Barrel House can be easy to overlook if you're passing along Main Street--blink and you might miss it--but don't. Look for it, stop in, soak up the atmosphere, and order yourself a pizza. It's a unique little piece of Red Wing with a whole lot of character, and I'm very glad it's here.

However, the locals insisted this place had great pizza and our pickle pizza was very good. We also had nachos and the Chicago hot dog. Everything was on point. The bartenders are pleasant and helpful. The only complaint I have is that it is too dark. The lighting is so dark it could put you to sleep. The live music we had that night was fantastic (swamp kings) and I highly recommend this bar!

I had the pulled pork sandwich with sweet potato fries. It had a really good smokey but not totally saturated smokey flavor.

But I can tell you that whoever determined the menu and keeps everyone on track, and probably everyone at the restaurant put a little love into the place and a lot of love into their coworkers. You CAN taste the difference when people are happy. We went with an order of 3 large shrimp for each of us, and a half chicken and ribs with coleslaw and sweet potatoe fries. The shrimp were incredible! The size! The juiciness, the ability to get every bit of meat out of the tail! Everything about these was everything that I wanted. I couldn't believe that one serving of just 3 was so filling! (I think you would need 6 Red Lobster butterfly shrimp to equal the size of one but you cannot compare the taste as these are peel & eat.) Then I opened the protein box and realized that I had made the embarrassing mistake of not ordering a barbecue sauce. Humph. I think that should not have been such an easy mistake to make on their site. Thankfully, both of us like grilled food without dripping sauces and ... OMG ... We were not disappointed in the food! The ribs were like eating a meat candy. They were such a joy to hold the bone and just lightly pull the tender sweet meat off. There was barely any fat. The spice rub brought out the juices from deep inside the meat but only let them sit on the meat and inside the skin. The chicken was amazing! The dark meat practically ran juices down the front of our shirts as we bit into it, the same way that sweet corn does. The white meat was so juicy it was like the typical dark meat that most people achieve on Thanksgiving. Now, the coleslaw was one of the blandest I've tasted but I figured if you do have one of the spicier barbecue sauces you might be using it as a foil. Helping you to calm your mouth's fire down with the dressing. Of course, fries don't travel well and sweet potatoe are no different. But they were absolutely everything I expected. They were delicious!! I am having surgery in April and trying to see how to ship this food to me after that now. ;)
