My elderly mother recently moved to Park Rapids, and when she visited me in the Twin Cities, she brought along a Dad's pizza - good stuff. BTW, I love the humor in the written baking instructions! LOW CARB: I was thrilled to discover that it's easy to eat low carbohydrate carnivore style at Dad's. They have a Keto Pizza with no crust. (They also offer a cauliflower crust if, for some reason, you can't live without stuffing some plants in your gullet.) The crust-less pizza features all of your toppings, artfully layered in an aluminum baking pan. Of course, I got the meat lover's version of the Keto pizza. I noticed they layered the bottom with slices of ham too. Very clever. I loved it. If I lived closer, I'd be treating myself to the crust-less Keto pizza every week. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them and I'd eat there again any time. Support a local family owned business and eat some Dad's Halfway There Pizza. Thumbs up! -Maxx

You order at the counter and food is brought out to you. The pepperoni pizza was decent, but nothing crazy. The pickle pizza was absolutely delicious and unique, although I think the chicken tasted a little bit burnt.

The prices for the pizza were also a little bit elevated, although although the brews were very fairly priced. We tried a flight of four for $13 and that was a great value. There were some very unique flavors and something for everyone which we really liked. I also appreciated that they let you keep the card with the selected flavors on it so you know which ones you have. I would definitely stop by here again.

Our waiter, Mitch, made sure we didn't want for anything the entire time. We started with the chips & dips. The smoked Gouda cheese dip and guac were memorable--the chips and salsa were not. The BLT with thick cut peppered bacon was scrumptious, but the chips were blegh. I had the beet and basil salad and all I can say is I was looking forward to the goat cheese but because the lettuce wasn't torn/cut enough, you tussled with it on top (and that was after hacking through the beets) while you eventually discovered they rubbed the goat cheese on the bottom of the plate like a dirty little secret. The music, booths/tables, and ambiance were great, so we'd probably give them another try.

I had an opportunity to try Tavern 203 in Nevis this weekend. I've heard good things from family…read moreand so I thought we'd give it a try. We wanted to start off with the scotch eggs, but they were not temporarily available so we had the fried pickles which came very quickly. I am a pickle fan by nature and the fried pickles were good. They came with a spicy sauce which was a find complement but a little too spicy so we got an order ranch dressing as well. My understanding is the pickles are a little thicker than they used to be, but I was fine with what we got. Shortly after getting the appetizer we placed our order for entrées. Unfortunately, this is where things deteriorated, apparently due to problems in the kitchen. The entrées were delayed by 30-45 minutes. We eventually got a side salad and a Caesar salad. Neither salad was anything special, but nurishing. The artichoke pizza finally came and was quite good. The pizza was an artichoke and spinach paste base with chicken, caramelized onions, and mozzarella on top. This was hot and flavors a lot of artichoke, chicken, caramelized onion, and mozzarella were all distinct. The tavern burger that came next was plentiful and tasted good, but was slightly overdone from the temperature requested. The tater tots with the burger were warm, but could have definitely been hotter. The service throughout was mostly attentive, but clearly struggling with the kitchen service issues and didn't have much to tell us through most of the meal. The restaurant was busy but not overcrowded and they had plenty of seating so I don't think this service is typical and I think we got there on a bad day. Had we been given an option a half hour into our seating we might've skipped the entrées and just ordered more appetizers if they had been quicker.
