We drove by a few that didn't look as interesting as we thought they would, and then decided to try this one, even though it was way away from where we were it looked like a good menu. We were not disappointed. Service was great. Food was great. We are an older couple so we're happy to see that they had seniors menu with some smaller size burgers. Amazing flavor on the burgers and the best french fries that we have eaten in a long, long long time. We only get to Duluth about four times a year, but we decided that this is where we're eating every time from now on.

Accidentally found this place on maps. Tip: always zoom in and out in an area when looking for food…read moreas the buttons seem to pop at different "elevations". SO glad I stopped. I had the special, a simple cheeseburger and fries. Simple it was not. This will now be my go-to place for a burger whenever I'm in town. The burger is never frozen, the fries are real and fresh cut (but they do it right and soak them in water). OMG, I was expecting a typical flat little burger and a half a dozen bites of fries...oh no, bring your appetite my friend! The burger was juicy and thick but also fully cooked. The fries were divine! They were golden brown with a perfect crisp, skin on for flavor, and not too skinny nor thick AND didn't leave me wanting more. I ALWAYS want more fries. I made the mistake of saying "no" to tomato and lettuce and onion. They are usually a little limp leaf of nearly white lettuce and a paper thin slice of lacy flavorless wet tomato. Nope, not here. I saw them preparing other baskets as I was sitting at the counter awaiting my order...the fixings were thick, bright, and crunchy! Don't skip it. I'm also super excited to try their other dinner selections like meatloaf with mashed potatoes and gravy. I have a hunch the potatoes won't be instant. I'm curious about breakfast too, although I'm never in town that early. They have a small selection of desserts as well. They also serve my favorite root beer, 1919, along with 1919 cream soda which I didn't even know they had! Just like the quality and quantity of food, the service is what I remember it used to be. I was greeted with a genuine warm and welcome smile. I wad given an appropriate amount of time to decide before being pestered multiple times. My questions were answered without a look of annoyance and I wasn't made to feel like a bother. The small talk was personable and appropriate. Service sets the tone and I felt comfortable and belonging. The ONLY reason I didn't give it 5 stars was it kinda yucked me out nobody wore gloves at any point. Grabbing fistful of potatoes out of a bucket of water would require a type of dishwashing glove, and I get that they are fried in hot oil so that didn't bother me as much. It was more the handling the raw fixings without gloves and noting that the lettuce (as beautiful as it was), and I'm assuming the other vegetables, we're not washed prior. I don't think many restaurants do for the reason of preparation speed and ingredient longevity. That part bothers me everywhere because all I can think of is pesticides and germs. I don't typically end on a less than positive note but, I knew this one was going to be lengthy and people's attention spans short. I lied, I will say this...I left very happy and satisfied and NOT smelling of grease! In summary, GO!

Dirty, slow service, mediocre food…read more Walked in and the dining room only had a couple other tables with patrons. Our table was dirty and the server had to wipe it off when she eventually greeted us to take our order. We had to hear about our server's hot flashes, yet when she took our order, she did not write a darn thing down. Hello, toots, if you know you're experiencing menopausal brain fog/memory loss, write sh!t down. Because you didn't, you only entered two orders out of three (by your own admission after the fact). So because you didn't enter my mom's order, so hers cooked while ours were done, her order was hot, while ours were cool. Not to mention that by not writing things down, my husband's steak fries somehow turned into tater tots?!?!?! My mom's beer battered cod had zero beer batter flavor and the tartar sauce looked like pistachio fluff. The MS Gronk that claims to be loaded with spicy, deep fried pickles had barely any limp pickles, and my cold extreme mushroom & Swiss burger was bland. Beer battered mushrooms had a thin batter, like SUPER thin; and instead of serving the standard ranch dip with it, they just served some spicy cheese dip with these basically naked mushrooms, which of course totally overpowered the mushrooms. 100% do not recommend and would not return. Then after mediocre food and service, my mom and I eventually went outside while my husband finally got tired of waiting for the bill and eventually went up to the bar to try and pay. Do better ~ with cleanliness, order entering, food, flavor, and service.
