What do you get when you combined dill pickles and fried chicken? Heaven…read more If you are a fried chicken (and pickles) lover, you definitely need to try out Bull's Horn, a cozy local joint Minneapolis has to offer. You cannot go wrong with any of their entrees but I'd always go for their chicken basket to share with friends, and a side of fries. Their chicken is coated perfectly with dill seasoning, crunchy bread coating is coated nicely and the meat always comes out juicy and tender. The fries are also lovely and they always pair nicely when eating chicken. 5/5 recommend.

I live less than a mile from the Bull's Horn Bar, and the family finally decided to check it out…read moreduring Sunday's Nokomis Day celebration. Wow. What a great dive bar. Today the place was packed due to the festivities, and the parking lot was transformed into a large patio with a DJ, a small bar area, and an outdoor bbq that was slinging burgers, 1/4 pound hot dogs, tots, and popcorn chicken. There was also a meat raffle going on as well. Since it was pretty hot out, we decided to get a seat inside. The seating for today was largely communal to accommodate the large crowd, and we found a seat for the three of us. I went outside to get a smash burger, 1/4 pound hotdog, and a basket of tots. The wife stayed inside with the kiddo to order some drinks. The food cooking outside took tickets ($5 a ticket) and 5 tickets were bought for the food. Not a bad deal in my book. The food took under 10 minutes to get, and the cooks were working the fryers and flattop grill like pros. The smash burger was a nice size, came with cheese and grilled onions, and was on a brioche bun. The hot dog was a nice size, and the tots were plentiful, hot, and crispy out of the outside fryer. Run of the mill condiments were also available, and serve yourself. The wife said the smash burger was better than I make, and I make a pretty damn good burger. While we were eating, I totally felt the dive bar feel, and had the feeling this was pretty much a local bar hangout. Supposedly it's been around for over 70 years (with a name change). After eating, we went outside to see if we could win some meat in the raffle but didn't get lucky. We will come back though. Evidently every 4th Wednesday they have another meat raffle at the bar. The good news is the kiddo won a huge cake on the cake walk contest! We will definitely be back. I want to try their fried dill pickle broasted chicken. Time to eat some cake!

Everything here was delicious, that this is coming from someone who is not vegan! The food we…read moreordered was so flavorful & you never would have guessed that the milkshakes were vegan too!

They have QR codes on each table so you can order on your phone, and they have WiFi available. Alternatively, someone can take your order if you'd prefer! For the burgers, you can choose between the impossible patty or the black bean patty. For the chicken sandwiches, you can choose grilled or fried vegan chicken. For beverages, they have cocktails, mocktails, wine, beer, THC drinks, milkshakes, pop, lemonade, and more! There are so many options which is great! The fries are crispy! One of my friends went with the ranch fries which were good, but in my opinion it was not worth the $2 upcharge for the amount of seasoning that comes on them. I would recommend sticking with the regular fries and ordering a side of ranch as a dipping sauce instead! This is the only place that I'm aware of where you can get a vegan juicy lucy! It is very cheesy, and it's fun that there's a meatless version of a MN classic! It was messy to eat though so make sure to have a napkin nearby! I really enjoyed the atmosphere, and would go back! I think it's be a great place for hanging out with friends, especially if there are any vegans or vegetarians in the group!

We were the only ones in the restaurant after a family left. We ordered a few different items because the menu had some great options. For starters, we got the pretzel with cheese sauce and mustard, wedge salad, and baked chicken sandwich. Everything was delicious! I loved how they split our shared wedge salad. It was SO huge and delicious. That chicken sandwich was bussin' bussin'. For dessert we split the churro ice cream sandwich and man, that was delicious. Service was good and our server was friendly. What a nice little spot. Inside was cozy and music playing was fun. If I'm in the area again, I'd stop.

This is one of my favorite spots and favorite burgers in the city. My friend and I shared the cheeseburger and the chicken sandwich and fries. I had not had the chicken sandwich before, but will definitely be ordering it again as it was delicious. The burger continues to be one of my favorite in the area. If you're not super hungry, you can definitely share the fries. It's a pretty decent size portion! Our server Donika was super bubbly and friendly and one of the best servers I've had in a while! She had great recommendations and was quick and attentive. The spot is great time of year, but especially in the summer when they have the doors open! The inside bar is also so cool.

The space is very nice. A little loud, but not so bad you can't have a conversation. I love the big windows along the side and being behind the storefront on the other side. For the food...fantastic. I saw arancini on the menu, which I can never say no to. These had a pea pesto, which was perfect for spring. I ended up getting the chicken sandwich for my dinner and had a couple fabulous cocktails. Since we stopped in for a birthday celebration, we were also treated to a delicious scoop of cake batter ice cream. Our server was delightful, very fast and incredibly friendly. He also had great suggestions for those who wanted a recommendation. All in all, would definitely come back to the Sidebar!

These, too, were best-ever meals. The fries were perfect and I'm now drooling thinking about them. These burgers were cooked perfectly and were delicious in every way. All of the condiments/toppings that came with them were not extraneous at all. Every bite was a head-shaking experience of fantabulous burgerdom. The service here is quick and attentive without being overwrought. We were given the space to devour our food, while not wanting for anything. Our drinks were refilled and extra napkins came to the table without requesting them. This was my friend's first time here, and he's a fan. Give them a try!

I went on a Saturday afternoon, and not many people were there. It took close to 15 minutes to get a menu, and when all was said and done, my friend and I had spent close to 2 hours there by the time we finished our meal. I got a burger and she got a sandwich, standard fare. I wasn't expecting anything fancy. For a place like Tootie's you typically go for the standard fare, but unfortunately, the food was just okay. No real flavor, kind of fell flat. The evenings seem to be a little more lively when I pass by, maybe I'll give it another whirl then.
