    Had the Sunday buffet. Fried chicken, meatloaf and cheesy potatoes. Food was dry and not very memorable. Inside was set up cafeteria style with a fast food style counter to order food. However the place is weird,unique and has interesting people. So if you like checking out cafés and diners give it a go.

    This was probably one of my favorite burgers I've had in a while. It's a mix between fast food and a dine in restaurant. They take your order at the counter and give you a number in which when your food is ready they bring it to your table. I would definitely go back to try something different and also to see if the burger is as good the next time. The reason for the 3 stars is because it's on the pricier side.

    Astronomical prices, dirty and slow. Service at this place is terrible. Not very good food, I would rather have eaten my shoe.

    We are so happy we found this gem! Not only did they have an excellent wine list and mules, but…read morethey also had delicious food. Plus, they turned on the World Cup match for us. Most of the seating is at the bar. The bar chairs are cushy, with backs and places for your feet. There is also a sitting area with couches. We both enjoyed our beverages and would've had another if we didn't have to hop on the road. I drank a rose from the Willamette River Valley, OR, while my hubby had a mule. For lunch, we ordered the yummy burrata with prosciutto and tomatoes as our appetizer. For our meal, we shared the chicken bacon ranch pizza. It was so good and very filling. We might have been able to eat it all if we hadn't gotten the app, but we can't resist a burrata. I recommend asking for a side of their ranch to dip your crust in. They also have a gift shop with excellent-smelling soy candles that I almost bought (but I'm on a candle freeze until I use more of what I already have) and t-shirts and coasters with fun quotes. They also have escape rooms in envelopes that I was tempted to buy, as I have never seen them.

    Drinks: 5/5 Food: 4/5…read moreService: 2/5 I was so impressed by: - the alcohol selections- really extensive and unique choices. All 3 wine options in my flight were outstanding, and we also got a mule. - the flatbread pizza! All the meats were high-quality and it was cooked perfectly. - my husband loved the BBQ blueberry meatball pizza, and it's very unique to the area. - the vegan chocolate cake- didn't even get a pic because it was so excellent I ate it immediately, and I also appreciated having a vegan dessert option Could improve: - chips & salsa were worse than anything I get from the grocery store- they tasted like straight-up Tostitos mild. For like $10 and with otherwise great food, please do better. - the service was extremely indifferent. The main guy working was alone behind the counter, with no customers when we arrived, and he didn't acknowledge us for several minutes. We watched this pattern of confusion continue with everyone else who came in- no one knew where to sit, etc. He rarely visited tables and it took a long time to even get water and menus.

    September 8, 2026…read more Dickinson, North Dakota Holy cow this place is busy. Not an empty seat on a Tuesday night at 6:45 pm. We were greeted at the door and had to wait 10 minutes for a table. Staff was incredibly friendly. Our waitress, Ricki, treated us like we were the only people in the restaurant. What a gem she is! We ordered the wings with half horseradish, honey and half honey barbecue. Comes with blue cheese, ranch dressing, and a side of fries. We changed our side to onion rings. She told us that the wings were her favorite, and the horseradish honey was the best sauce after we ordered. She guided us around the menu fantastically. We also ordered chicken nachos. The menu is extensive. Everything from burgers and sandwiches to pasta, salad and entrées. I love all the choices they had for appetizers. I wish I could try a bit of everything. Let's talk about the inside of the restaurant. There is a brick wall that lines the entire side of the restaurant. The bar is open and takes up 2/3 of the left side. Wood tables are in front of the bar up toward the window. High tops line the interior right side of the bar. It looks as though there is an upstairs, however, it was closed for the day. The minute somebody leaves the table they clean it immediately to turn it over for the next diners. The floors are wooden. Restaurant is very clean. The wings were very good. Perfectly fried, came out hot, the perfect amount of sauce, and plenty of ranch and blue cheese. The onion petals were very small with lots of breading, but the onions were thick and flavorful. We also ordered the chicken nachos. There was plenty of. chicken and it was both chunk and shredded. Diced tomatoes, chunks of onion and lettuce. We asked for no olives and jalapeños on the side. They also brought the queso on the side. I kind of wish the queso was over top of the nachos while it was still hot. This salsa was good nice and chunky. The sour cream came in a packet that you squeeze on the side. With all the fresh ingredients they gave us, the sour cream was a disappointment. The chips were very crunchy throughout the entire nacho plate. This is definitely a dish you share. Very large portion. It is now 8 o'clock, and there has been a steady flow of people throughout our meal coming into the restaurant. There's still not an empty seat. This place is busy and vibrant. Don't be afraid of the busyness as they turn these tables so quickly. The staff all works together and they do a remarkable job. What I did not like about the restaurant is the plates are aluminum. Even though they come with liners, the aluminum is a turn off. Regardless of this minor concern, I give this place five stars! I don't typically hand out five stars, as it is hard to have a clean restaurant, friendly staff, and great food. However, this place hits the mark. You must visit here if you are in town. I can only imagine how fun this place would be in the dead of winter in North Dakota. I would definitely come back to this restaurant. And I hope that you come too!

    One of the best places in the northern plains, even in the summer and even in a very touristy town…read more Excellent quality and generous servings. Well worth the price. Recommend beginning at TR's Tavern, a small lounge next to the dining room. It's old fashioned is a generous pour and expertly crafted. Plus the bartenders are just up front and friendly folks. So much to like about the dining room. On consecutive nights we had great meals and wonderful service, particularly from Alex! It's not over crowded and has a real rhythm to its service, although you never feel rushed. Impressive wine list that we chose from both nights. We also like the substantial side Ceasars you could add to the entrees. The bread service was very good too. Heartily recommend the duck quarters or the lamb rack, both with superb cheese grits and grilled asparagus. The favors just knock you for a loop! The blackened salmon is also an excellent choice, with the really well prepared roasted red potatoes. So creamy. The dinner salad with beef tips is almost overwhelming--skip lunch that day. The sticky toffee desert is surprisingly good-well baked, sweet but not too much. You really miss a taste of western North Dakota if you skip this place.

    My wife made reservations on the MyTable app for 6pm. Since we were wandering around Medora we…read morestopped in around 4pm to double check (I'm leery of 3rd party sites) and confirmed with Lucia that our reservation was indeed in their system so I took a deep breath and we went about our afternoon. We returned about 6pm and this time entered through the hotel and paused at the "Please wait to be seated" sign post for about 10 minutes. The restaurant was bustling and we thought nothing about being "ignored" but my wife insisted that we walk to the main entrance and get in line. We were shocked when the front end staff found no reservations under my wife's name. Thankfully, "Shaker" had noted our earlier visit with my wife's service animal and had made a handwritten to the affect that we had a dog. Whew, crisis averted thanks to "the man", Shaker and his attention to detail! Dinner was uneventful and the service by Franco was exceptional. We enjoyed the bourbon glazed Brussel sprouts before our entrees; she had the 8 oz tenderloin and I had the osso bucco. Everything was terrific and the pace, leisurely. Since we were celebrating my wife's birthday she got a candle on her sticky, toffee pudding and I opted for the creme brulee. Fantastic experience, highly recommended.
