We started with halves of the Beet salad and Va Bene salad for starters. I love the options for different sizes of salads. Each were exactly as I was hoping for, light with good toppings to greens ratios. The Conchiglie Con Funghi with gluten free noodles and steak tips on top was fabulous. Prosciutto crumbles on top that looks like bacon crumbles paired well with the genours amount of mushroom. The Gorgonzola al Peperoncino with gluten free noodles was the perfect spice level, 6-7/10, with a sweetness and creaminess to it that I'm still thinking about to this day. For dessert, their Spumoni gelato was to die for; an Italian version of Neapolitan with better flavors and mix-ins. The atmosphere is intimate and cozy with a tasteful mix of upscale and casual. I highly recommend dining here & will be coming back when I'm back in town!

My friend described the coziness of it as "your grandma's house". We got in line right in time because it filled up right after we ordered.

I had the dovetail latte and my friend had an iced vanilla latte and we both loved our coffees. They also have a small craft and trinket section from local sellers which was so cool and made the space feel so homey. It was so good we ended up doing back later that weekend as well. Recommend if you're in the area!

To make matters worse, we were overcharged for side plates of bean sprouts and basil, which are normally included with pho. When we politely pointed out the billing error, instead of correcting it professionally, the staff threatened to kick us out of the restaurant. If you decide to eat here, I strongly recommend checking your bill carefully before paying. Based on our experience, both the customer service and the way our concerns were handled were unacceptable.

To be honest the food was really good but the staff was just amazing. The hostess, server, even person who walking by answered a question and wasn't our server were all just beyond top notch. Like the service you'd get at a upper end steak house (but even better than that). I think the food is great, the servers are TOP NOTCH and for sure recommend. I'd give six stars if I could.

PRO TIP #1: Here is a secret only a full-time drinker would notice: Drinks are two-for-one if you sit at the bar--all day, every day. Those must be some seriously forlorn bartenders. PRO TIP #2: Park in the Duluth Grill lot or behind the restaurants. It is a bit confusing the first time through, presumably to discourage the unhip. Finally, the restrooms are top shelf, which is the first--and last--thing old-timers like me notice.

Delicious poutine, with oozy gooey squeaky cheese curds. I had the smoked fish salad; it had the right amounts of everything and felt like a distinctly Duluth dish. My husband had the fish and chips. I had a bite of his fish, and it was perfect, with great batter and flavor. I would happily come here again on a visit. I can see why this is a city institution.

Intrigued by their homemade wild rice burgers, we decided to visit Fitger's Brewhouse for a dinner…read morewhile in Duluth. When we arrived a bit after 7PM, we had quite some trouble finding parking and ended up having to park a couple of blocks away after circling for 20 minutes. Walking in, the place wasn't too busy, perhaps 50% capacity. We were interested in ordering the fried cheese curds, but the server told us they weren't battered in house, so we passed on them. Smoked Fish Salad (Market Price, $18.99) - This is a pretty salad - all ingredients are arranged in rows along the dish. Mixing things together is a bit of a pain, but I appreciate the dressing on the side to add to preference. The dressing is an interesting blend of mayo and other ingredients, perhaps BBQ sauce, that make it slightly tangy and very sweet. There's an undertone of smokiness throughout, which tastes somewhat like liquid smoke rather than the dressing actually being smoked. It is on the sweeter side of dressings. Other than greens, there's a row of wild rice, dark and snappy, completely broken cultivated rice. There's also a bit of house smoked trout, nice and smoky. (4/5) Classic Wild Rice Burger ($16.99) - This is one of the tallest burgers I've seen in quite a while, mostly due to the inclusion of fresh vegetables including onion and tomato, and alfalfa sprouts. For some reason instead of using larger tomatoes, they use small roma tomatoes, including three small slices. They also used red onion that's chopped into a variety of different shapes instead of whole slices. It's really strange - I guess this saves on cost? Unfortunately smaller pieces means things fall out while eating. The patty is larger than the bun. It has plenty of broken wild rice bits giving some additional crunch and that signature wild rice taste. It's charred on the griddle well and it keeps its structure, not falling apart or becoming mushy at any point. I love how it's distinctively a rice burger and doesn't try to be a meat substitute. Two slices of American cheese are melted on top that gives some fattiness to the dish. The bun is toasted without butter and there's a flavorful garlic mayo spread on the top. It would be nice if they had also applied the sauce to the bottom bun as I found the patty to not have enough moisture or fat incorporated. The burger comes with some thin commercial fries. There aren't any issues with the level of fry and they are otherwise unremarkable. (4/5) Fitger's Brewhouse serves some solid good old fashioned Midwestern American food. Not much else to say. Bathrooms - Larger ones shared with the rest of the business in the building Food: [4/5] Service: [ ] Other: [ ] Final Rating: 4/5
