    We stopped in to Dan's Bar and Grill for a quick bite on our way to Rochester. From the outside the restaurant looks unassuming but it is quite big inside with a spacious patio and backyard. They have several TV's for sport enthusiasts and a nice bar. We chose to sit at the bar with Scott and a nice woman (I didn't catch her name) who served us. Both were very nice, efficient and never left us waiting for service. I ordered a lettuce wrap burger with coleslaw for a side. The burger was thin and griddle cooked. I usually prefer a much thicker burger where I can order a medium temperature but I will say despite being thin, it was very tasty. The coleslaw is made with a house made vinaigrette dressing which was very good. My husband ordered the buffalo wings. The wings were a nice size. The buffalo sauce was tasty and they were pretty crispy although could have been a little more crispy than they were served. The wings were served with blue cheese dressing which was delicious. I believe they make all the dressings in house. We also met one of the owners, Dave. Dave was very cordial and friendly to us and also several of the customers who walked into the restaurant. You could tell this is a regulars spot. Everyone appeared to know each other and were nice people. If you are traveling on the 52 between the Twin Cities and Rochester, stop at Dan's for a bite to eat. You won't be disappointed.

    Stopped again with Daughter and Son in Law for the Friday Fish Fry Special! The Cod and Slaw was Great Portions is three Separate portions were 3 ounces, so 9-12 ounces ! I had the Mahi Mahi Tacos with Slaw 3 and were amazing! The onion rings were good but a little Greasy! All in all great service, nice presentation, very fair prices! We Recommend it!

    Wow just wow! Service first of all is over the top amazing. Fantastic Bloody Mary. The food was soooo good! We shared a burger... perfectly done medium and VERY juicy and a pastrami Ruben with bacon cheddar tots. Everything that came out of the kitchen looked great. (We sat at the bar and watched all the food being prepared) I will be back every time I'm in this area!!!

    I got a patty melt and my friend got the Dilly burger. We both enjoyed our meals! The food and atmosphere were great. I will definitely return!

    Brisket sandwich on pretzel roll. 3 out of 4 of us ordered it and they all loved it.

    Every time we go, Dan's does not disappoint. The burgers are tasty either buns that handle the meat and toppings. Service is friendly and fast. Great selection of local beers and specialty cocktails. This time I tried the Cuban sandwich and I may never order another burger ever again (although they are amazing). Wow. So flavorful. Been there two weeks in a row and can't wait to go back!

    It is about time I leave a review for Dan's Bar. This is not only the best burger joint I have eaten at since moving to the area, it is also grilling some of the best burgers I have ever had in my life. It truly is that good, and it is shockingly affordable for the quality and portions they serve. I believe the regular burgers + chips are $11.75 and the stuffed burgers + chips are $13.75, which in 2024 are superb if you ask me. There is a variety of burger options, including unique stuffed patties. I have had the pickle rollup and the pit master, both were delectable and I do not see myself deviating from those two in future visits. The restaurant itself is a casual small town bar with a nice patio for outdoor seating + a stage for live music. Do not pass this up!

    Burger and French fries

    Dans burger is so amazing you have to get it. The people are so friendly and welcoming here we had excellent service and I will definitely be coming back and telling everyone to come to this place. The atmosphere is comfortable and conversations are great with staff and locals.

    This is an amazing gem that is worth the drive! I love the friendly service that makes you feel right at home. There is a spacious dining area and open room that is shared with the bar. The noise level and acoustics are really good considering a full dining area. You can enjoy video games and a jukebox in the bar. A lovely outdoor deck with bar area is available 12 months out of the year with enclosed igloos during the winter. There is a food special every night of the week and wide menu full of delicious options the drink menu is also A++ with great beer, wine and cocktails.

    Big Mac Flat Bread Feature today. Yum

    First time here. Don't let the parking lot of cars make you feel there's a wait. I checked and no wait. There is also dining outside. Their sign said feature of Big Mac Flat Bread and beer cheese soup. The big Mac flat bread was good and ordered without onions. Brought 5 pieces home for my son. Ordered the Buttermilk Chicken Sandwich and beer cheese soup. Other reviews talked how good this was. I cut in half and ate some with a little bread. The chicken had a tangy sauce and coleslaw on it. The breading fell off the chicken when cut. Makes me wonder if chicken was pre frozen or overcooked or sat in window longer. Brought 1/2 home to the son. Spouse had California Burger and really liked fresh burger. The fries were hand cut and not soggy. We stopped after going to Little Log Pioneer Village annual show.

    King's Place - America's Best Burger and a Dirty Dr Pepper

    I'm in town for a few weeks. I asked the woman at the front desk of the hotel "Whats the best…read moreburger in the area?" Without hesitation she said "King's Place" She was right. I went there for lunch and sat at the bar. The bartenders were very friendly and helpful. There are over 100 choices of burger combinations on the menu. The burger was delicious. I told my boss about it and now we're going there for dinner tonight. Twice in 1 day? Yup! And I'll be back before I head back home.

    The Burger Monarchy: A Paradox of Plenty in Miesville In the…read morequiet, pastoral stretches outside Eagan, there exists a roadside institution that defies the modern trend of curated minimalism. King's Place in Miesville is a relic of a different era, a burger joint that functions less like a restaurant and more like a high-volume assembly line of Americana. The menu is not merely large; it is an overwhelming, multi-page manifesto of beef. With roughly 80 to 100 variations on the burger--many named in tribute to the local Miesville Mudhens baseball team--the experience begins with a bout of genuine decision paralysis. For the average diner, the sheer volume of choices feels like a dare. It is a place where you can find almost any topping imaginable, which makes the absence of a simple fried mushroom all the more jarring. It is the one note the kitchen fails to hit in an otherwise exhaustive symphony. When the food does arrive, the logistics are the primary entertainment. The floor staff at King's Place perform a nightly feat of athletic grace, weaving through the crowded, character-filled dining room while balancing five or more burger trays at a time. It is a spectacle of efficiency that puts the sterile, automated nature of modern chains to shame. However, one must navigate the side dishes with a discerning eye. While the temptation to "upgrade" is always present, the seasoned waffle fries are an investment that yields little return; they are best skipped in favor of the standard fare. The real value here lies in the core product and the refreshing lack of pretension. Despite the fame and the daunting menu, the pricing remains stubbornly reasonable, a rare feat for an establishment that has transitioned from a local secret to a regional landmark. "Life is too short to miss out on the beautiful things like a double cheeseburger." -- Channing Tatum For those seeking the predictable polish of a franchise, King's Place will be a confusing sensory overload. But for the traveler who values soul, speed, and a price point that respects the wallet, this is a kingdom worth visiting--just don't expect to find a fried mushroom on your plate.

    My review is only for the fish fry experience, I have not tried the normal menu…read more This was such a good fish fry! The fried fish was flaky and tender. The Mac and cheese was delicious, and the potatoes had a great flavor. Be warned that the initial line is super long and can stretch to outside, but then it is much quicker after you get through the first line. The servers were all super nice and the place had a great, welcoming atmosphere. I also appreciated that they let girl scouts sell cookies inside the restaurant! Will definitely have to come back for their other menu items.

    This is sad guys :( food is still amazing but wow service really needs so much more training like…read moreit's soo bad. I would literally shut down for a weekend and higher better servers or just train everyone so much more... It took a straight hour I mean a full hour to get a fried chicken sandwich and a burger with some cheese curds-that is crazy guys. Our server just seemed really uncomfortable and out of sorts. It felt super awkward. The old place was so much better!! I understand wanting a bigger location and I was excited because I'm in Hastings a lot and yes, you did need more space but we literally compromised service for space and that's not sustainable in a restaurant. I really hope this gets fixed because this place was a gem! My husband and I loved it. We would go all the time and get burgers and fried chicken sandwiches for like the last three years. I was excited over being in a bigger location, but yeah, the service was so awful and the food took so incredibly long that it just put a huge cloud over the whole experience. Also my loaded fries--the cheese wasn't even melted. Like, how could you even send that over to the table? I hope you guys do a lot more training and get people up to speed. There's no way I could come back after what I just experienced maybe in a few more months when people are more trained that was super frustrating. I also feel sorry for all the veterans and good old boys that used to go there every day. The old place had a way better vibe to it. This feels chaotic like people are confused. You have a whole bunch of staff that don't know what they're doing now and it's super noticeable. Fried chicken was delicious as always, but boy did I pay for it. Honestly, the wait time was just the worst part. That's my main complaint a full and I mean I'm not exaggerating here--an entire hour for one burger and one fried chicken sandwich that's insane and they didn't even offer to take anything off when it was all over. $90 for this experience and it was really frustrating. It was sad to us too because this used to be one of our favorite spots. Super bummed.
