    Definitely a hole in the wall, but great peppery chicken noodle soup on a cool day really hit the spot.

    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!

    Service was superlative; waitress with the impressive finger nails. We had issues with the order…read moreand she didn't even blink as she immediately addressed the issue. Food, overall, was good and tasty- chips and fries were impressive as was the coleslaw. Atmosphere was upbeat and packed within 45mims of opening.

    Whatever service/friendliness issues there were from previous reviews appear to have been ironed…read moreout, as every staff member was energetic and engaging. We were immediately greeted & seated with a lake view. Offered water while we selected drinks & given the details on the specials, which rotate. We've driven by so many times without realizing what we were missing, thinking it was just a lakeside bar. I'm so glad we decided to swing in once hearing about the "not bar fare food" being served. Seafood in North Dakota, ehhhh, how brave do you feel? We started with shrimp stuffed shrooms. It only comes with 3, but they are piled high. It turns out we really didn't need an app, as I'm currently eating my boxed up food while I'm writing this review. I honestly haven't been in such a personable place in a long time &, no, we aren't regulars or locals. We were given a tip to come back for seafood Sunday- maybe... The beef was all tender & juicy - cooked to a perfect med-rare. The hubs had the hanger steak & I opted for the lavash special- which was a BOGO - buy the Philly & get a seafood version free. Veggies were all fresh, no canned/frozen soggy stuff here, nice & crisp. When we were checked in on, my response to "is everything tasting ok?" was simply "wow" with an "I know, right?" bounced back.

    Amazing hidden treasure in these ND parts with incredible views. The food was amazing especially…read morethe prime rib, and the staff is second to none in service. We will definitely be back again soon!
