Right in the heart of downtown Bismarck, this spot serves up some pretty decent Irish pub grub…read morefare. It was pretty quiet when we came in (it was a weekday, mid-afternoon), but the service was prompt and friendly. I ordered one of my favorite pub dishes...the classic fish-n-chips. Turns out, their version comes with waffle fries (not traditional English chips) but their Dublin sauce used for dunking the fries really hit the spot. The two large, breaded fish filets really filled me up and the platter also came with a generous portion of creamy coleslaw. My dining partners enjoyed their meal choices as well, very glad we gave this restaurant a go!

Anima Cucina is such a cute spot in Bismarck. I was greeted right away and seated promptly, and the…read moreservice throughout the meal was warm, friendly, and attentive. For a small restaurant, they also have an impressive wine selection. We started with the garlic bread, hot olives, and meatballs -- all of which were flavorful, balanced, and absolutely delicious. For entrées, our table had the breaded walleye, the Bolognese pasta, and the Porchetta. The walleye and Bolognese were outstanding, but unfortunately the Porchetta was a big letdown. The skin was chewy rather than crisp, with a thick layer of unrendered fat beneath it, and most concerning, it still had visible pig hair. I was expecting the classic combination of crackling skin, melting fat, and tender pork, but instead it was oddly undercooked on the outside, dry inside, and after biting into hair, I really lost my appetite for it. We finished with tiramisu and a torte, and both desserts were excellent -- a strong way to end the meal. Overall, Anima Cucina has a lot going for it: charming atmosphere, friendly staff, great starters, and standout entrées (other than the Porchetta). I'd happily return for the appetizers, pasta, fish, and desserts, but I'd avoid the Porchetta based on my experience.

They have a big dance floor and it was fun watching others and dancing myself too. They have lots of tables, and blackjack and pull tabs. A full bar - although the cup sizes are super small! I ordered a malibu pineapple and I thought it was a mini. I would probably stick to beer if I was you. It's kind of far out North Bismarck, so don't drink and drive but really fun. I would definitely go back.

The food is great here if you get an opportunity to order food. They are very short on staff…read moresometimes they're open sometimes they're not. I had the southwest eggrolls and they were phenomenal. One of my friends had the wings. Those were phenomenal, but the bartender also has to cook so if you need a drink in between, then you have to go over to the other side, which is the hobo room and ask that gal to make you a drink or if you wanna punch in food, you have to go next-door to order it, which didn't make any sense to me. It is what it is. Everybody seems to be short on staff.

I also noticed the over 130 types of bourbon and whiskey on the wall and 16 taps on hand if mostly craft beers! I sat at the bar where Chris was bartending and the service was excellent! He made food and drink recommendations and were hits! I had the hot Italian beef and I have to say it was a big portion and packed with flavor! The hand cut fries were also excellent! I wanted to try the wings as the person sitting next to me had them and they looked good! All meat is cured in house giving it that extra touch!

Sadly, this was my first food service establishment experience in Bismarck, ND and boy, I was…read moredisappointed. Going to the "highly recommended for "new-in-towners" The Drink, I was expecting something a little more hip and put together. Other than the company I kept, it had a long way to go before it was a "to go to place"! Location: a 15-20 minute drive from anywhere in Bismarck. Decor: sports/martini/lake harbor bar?? Clearly, they have no idea who they want to be when they grow up and it showed. The upside was the they have a patio and it has a so-so view of a small harbor for boats, but they were playing 50 Cent's "Get Rich of Die Trying" CD and had a toothless bartender...what??? It's clean and has highly vaulted ceilings, but.... geez, what an airball. Food: popcorn, THAT'S IT. So I drive all the way across town to have a drink and a snack before dinner, and I'm presented with popcorn and a cheap martini? The cheap martini was good, but if I want to have another, I have to hail a cab because there's no way I'm driving all the way across town when the cops run rampant! Service: there were all of, hmmmm.... maybe 8 people in the entire place, including the 2 bartenders, and our server is running around the place with her head cut off, toothless and all and I just, ugh, not a great experience. The Drink has a long way to go before they get even one more star...
