    Wing basket

    Second visit- still awesome! Had the Cheese Blocks, wing basket, and the Outlaw Burger. Our server, Brenda, was fast, helpful, and pleasant.

    BLT on Texas toast with fries
    Cheri E.

    Just out for a Sunday drive and we were getting hungry. Saw this place off 169 and decided to stop. Very good food and it came out really fast too. Service was good and our server very friendly. Fresh ingredients, homemade BBQ sauce (thinking bourbon and honey, delicious!), heck, they even make their own Bloody Mary mix. Husband got said Bloody Mary and I tried it. Pretty tasty but the beer snit was not the greatest. He also got the homemade chili which was really good & chunky as well at the BLT and fries. The BLT was on grilled Texas toast and a good portion of bacon. Really good. I got the steak bite with garden veggie wrap and BBQ dipping sauce and fries. This was delicious. The steak was tender and done exactly how I ordered. The fries are really good too but I asked for very lightly seasoned and they were still really salty. Too salty for me so I didn't eat as many. Overall, really good and would love to eat there again next time I'm up in Milaca.

    Hoss burger. Good because of the pulled pork. Patty seemed frozen. Disappointed by that.

    Only reason it's getting a 3 is because of the pulled pork. It's damn good. When your waitress admits that the brisket and steak bites aren't made in the restaurant that's a concern. Yes the portions are huge but it also seemed the steak bite sandwich was poorly assembled and was not worth the price. The Hoss I got was good but it seemed the bigger patty was frozen which was super disappointing. For those who raved about the cheese curds I disagree and will be posting a pic to others can gauge for themselves. These were like shells of batter with cheese inside. Not my style. Fries were good. I liked those a lot. They weren't too crisp or too soggy. Last gripe. Way way too expensive. Came out with a bill that made my wallet hurt and it was only an app and two sandwiches. I expected more. Damn that pulled pork is good though.

    The Fire Pit pulled pork sandwich. It's an amazing beast of a sandwich.

    We decided to try this place as we headed north for the weekend with friends. What a gem! The food was tasty and fresh. Service was great and the ambiance was exactly what you would expect in a Northern MN bar & grill. Their emphasis is definitely on the food though. I had the Fire Pit pulled pork sandwich and my bride the steak salad. Their pulled pork was really delicious, moist and well smoked, PILED onto a super fresh ciabatta roll. At the suggestions four server I took the spicy BBQ sauce on the side. Outstanding suggestion! The sauce had quite a snap to it and a little went a long way for me. Our server also brought over their Chipotle BBQ sauce & house made Ranch to try as well. Both were delicious. The steak salad was fantastic too, with a lot of steak. You ain't going away hungry, that's for sure.

    They have the best food in that area. Their pork and French fry's are the best. Try the fry's with pork on top.

Not so much the receptionist, though--she could stand to learn a bit more, since she's in a position to interact with customers; at the very least, she should say "welcome" and "thank you." What I tried was delicious, but most importantly, as a chef, everything was prepared with high quality and served on time. I want to mention the hash browns, for example. Most--or I'd say almost all--chain restaurants use the wrong oil, or it's old or rancid. That's not the case at Brigitte's. Brigitte's isn't a chain, which is great. And the pancakes are so light they almost float in the air. Until next time....

    Now wouldn't it be cool if you could eat great food and do all your mail business in one place?…read moreWell you will get the post office vibe, original wood floors, a beautiful tin ceiling, and great food, but as far as I could see, no place to buy stamps. I chose the grilled shrimp for my entree. The shrimp were not shrimps, they were huge. I chose garlic mashed potatoes for my side (there were many options) and it came with asparagus as the veggie. It was delicious. Service was excellent. Street parking was easy. We parked directly in front of the entry. Cool spot. Love to see old buildings get repurposed.

I'll start with the positives - the ambiance is excellent and they have a great patio. Our server Simone was friendly and witty and really made our table feel welcomed. What could be better was the quality of some of the food in addition to the amount of time we waited for our food to arrive. After our orders were placed, it took about an hour to receive our food, and the table definitely didn't eat together. Even the appetizers took about 40 minutes to arrive at the table. I thought for what you get, it was insanely pricey. I have never paid close to $20 for a wing appetizer to get an odd number of 5 wings. That's insane. My friend and I planned on splitting that and the patty melt. We are huge patty melt lovers, but this one was bland and nothing good to report. The table did enjoy the shrimp dish. I will admit the bruschetta was darn good, but I wish there was more positives to report with the food. We all stated that we wouldn't pick this place again, but if someone wanted to eat here and suggested it, we would come back, but we would all want to try different things (minus the bruschetta and shrimp dish).

You sit at a table and order off your phone, and servers will bring your food and drinks out to you. Had no problem with that, it was a fairly easy process. Our servers were kind and I believe we talked to the owner for a bit who was attentive to all the tables! The food is the disappointing piece. I had the chicken rojo avocado tacos and they really lacked flavor. There was plenty of chicken in such a small tortilla, which made the taco fall apart as you ate. My sister ordered the pesto Mac and cheese with chicken and it was okay, but the chicken was not good. I didn't try the tenderloin bowl, but it seemed to have better reviews than my meal or my sisters from my family. I don't make my way out to Blaine often enough to try again, but I think this would be a better spot for pizzas and milkshakes.

You order at the counter or via QR code via your phone and they bring your food to you. I ordered an impossible cheeseburger + fries & a dirty soda. Everything was good. They had a walleye fish special going on, my friends shared that & fries for their meal. Not much interaction w/ staff as it's mostly help yourself but someone did come out and greet us and made sure we knew how the ordering process worked. Overall kinda loud sports bar (w/out drinks) vibe. ***Used to be a brewery attached, no longer operating there. They do not serve alcohol.
