Bald Man Juice Box Hero
Danny A.

When it comes to bowling alley food, I've generally had decent luck. Fitz's Bar inside of Cedarvale Lanes is no different. This is your typical, cookie cutter bowling alley bar feel. Weirdly lit with terrible carpet, a bar straight out of the 80s, dated carpet and overall furnishings. But isn't that what makes it great? I've always had a pleasant experience with the staff. They all always appear to be super busy but stay friendly. They definitely favor the regulars a little but rightfully so. I'm not mad about it. The food is average to above average. They have some insanely good nachos which I strongly recommend. Other things, such as burgers, can be a miss but not terrible. Wings, chicken tenders, and various sandwiches are all decent. I can't say whether or not I would seek it out or go out of my way for but if you are bowling or even just in the area, it's worth having.

Sunday brunch

Best nachos I've ever had (and huge!!). Great laneside, unless you're sloppy, chased with an adult beverage. Sunday brunch also well worth the price. We stopped on our way to the airport for a nice indulgence to tide us on the way home.

Fitz's does a few things well. The Ruban is good. They have a nice selection of draft beers. The restaurant is relatively clean and the service has always been excellent. However, I'd like to bring something to your attention. Please note that it's obvious from the attached photo that corners are being cut on the portion size and quality. The cost and portion size that made this part of the meal unacceptable. *Fried Cheese Curds $8.50.

Nachos. 9/10.
Phil R.

Usually stop by before going to a Gophers basketball game. We like because the service is friendly and fast. Good food at very reasonable prices. I recommend the club and nachos. It's very popular so others must think the same.

Horrible bartenders. Missy is the worst. Nothing else needed to say. Avoid. Better places to venue that actually appreciate you.

I was looking for a place for my daughter and me to have dinner on a Wed night, and I had always…read morewanted to try this restaurant. Unfortunately, the experience was pretty disappointing. Parking is a challenge. The restaurant's parking lot is much too small for a restaurant of this size, and because it's backed up against hotels, finding a spot meant parking farther away. I ordered the Carolina Summer Risotto (GF) for $21.95 because I love a good risotto, and with very limited gluten-free options, this seemed like the best choice. The menu describes it as saffron risotto with Cajun shrimp, tomato, asparagus, zucchini, squash, arugula, and lemon. What I received was a very small scoop--maybe 1/2 cup--of what tasted more like yellow, sticky rice with shrimp. There was no asparagus at all, and only a couple of small pieces of zucchini and squash cut into tiny chunks. It looked nothing like the photo on the menu. For nearly $22, I expected a much more substantial portion--not something that looked like a food-truck serving in a paper cup from the fair. My daughter ordered the 6-piece chicken strips with fries for $17, and thankfully, those were much better and very generous in portions. The chicken was very moist and, in her opinion, worth the price. The atmosphere was another issue. It was extremely loud, almost to the point where it was difficult to hear the person sitting across from you--even though the restaurant wasn't full. The waitstaff was friendly, which I appreciated, but unfortunately, the 'okay' entree food, portion size, noise level, and parking issues outweighed the positives.

Our waitress was friendly, helpful, and very pleasant. She explained the specials and was also happy to accommodate my request for gluten-free bread options, which I really appreciated. My husband ordered our drinks, and since it was happy hour, the bar drinks were offered at some great prices. For dinner, I ordered the Lemon Chicken with Roasted Veggies, while my husband chose the build-your-own baked pasta dish, loaded with plenty of vegetables. The only downside was our table location. We were seated right next to the kitchen door, and every time someone went in or out, the door made a pretty loud bang. It was distracting and a little irritating throughout the meal. Maybe a hydraulic door closer or hinge could help with that? When our food arrived, the portions were generous, everything was hot, and it all looked delicious. My lemon chicken was incredibly flavorful, and those roasted vegetables were absolutely the best! My husband's baked pasta was also packed with flavor, and he loved all the roasted vegetables he added to it. Aside from the noisy kitchen door, another great dinner and experience. We'll definitely be back!

Was a busy Friday night at Cedarvale lanes that's for sure. I called ahead to make a lane…read morereservation and was a bit frustrated they didn't take reservations on Fridays. They also told me they had league night which in my experience is a bit strange for a Friday. They assured me they'd still have a lane open when we arrive at 830Pm. Upon arrival they had a huge line and waitlist and everyone had to wait until league got out at 9pm; felt further frustrated. We got onto our lane at 905pm, not the worst as we got a round of pool in prior to playing. From here, the night went nice and smooth. Prices were a lot higher than I remember, $27 a person for 2 hours, but that's the economy I suppose. Got 3 games in, in 2 hours between 4 people. Ordered a couple pizzas, which were okay but a bit underwhelming. Years ago I remember this bowling alley having quite good pizza but it seems they downgraded their kitchen, at least after 9pm, and they only served personal sizes, no large pizzas. Regardless of the frustrating wait, and odd and underwhelming pizza, I enjoyed a nice evening of bowling with friends.
