We were driving from Des Moines to Minneapolis and decided to hop off the beaten path to Lake Mills. A great little town! We each had a side salad with thousand island dressing. Typical diner-style salad of romaine lettuce, cheese, tomatoes, onions. Fine, but nothing to write home about. Then we split the burger and fires. We went with the burger on a pretzel bun (I always think they will be better than a regular bun, but should just get the regular. Nothing wrong with this one--nice and fresh, just never what I think they will be.). Anyway, the burger was fantastic and the fries were crispy, not greasy, and a generous portion. The menu was quite diverse and we will make this trip again to check out more options. It's worth a stop just to be in the old bank building and to take a walk down Main Street!

Said that their best cook was in the kitchen and we couldn't go wrong. I had the pork tenderloin sandwich and fries. This sandwich was huge and for me required a knife and fork. It was delicious. I skipped most of the bun so I could concentrate on the pork. I wanted every bite. My husband had a bacon cheeseburger. They get their meat from the local locker. He said it was tender, moist and flavorful. And it was too big to finish. It was very clean and accessible friendly. Got to love a bar with clean bathrooms! We will definitely remember Lucky's Pub in Hayward MN next time we are in the area.

9/20/24. Our first time at George's. It looks like a whole lot of nothing from the street. Were it…read morenot for the sign above the door, you'd have no reason to notice the building. But, once you're inside, it's a whole other story. A really nice, big two-tier full bar is the first thing you see. There appears to be three different dining areas (bar, front room and back room), and they all looked comfy. Didn't see any ratty chairs or ripped, stained carpeting, no gouges or splattered food on the walls. Though it's called a Supper Club, we arrived in shorts and t-shirts, and nobody gave us the stink eye. No need to get all dressed up. Melanie was our server. She couldn't have been any more perfect! She was prompt (brought menus and took drink order within a minute of us sitting down), she was attentive (checked on us several times), and she kept that pretty smile beaming each interaction with us. She was a complete delight! We started with deep fried cauliflower and jalapeño cheese curds. The cauliflower was really good, the breading was crunchy and perfectly done. The curds had the right bite of jalapeño, but were kind of swimming in grease. Entrees were Plain Alfredo and the Friday dinner special, Beer-battered Talapia. In truth, the alfredo was rather standard (I should have asked for Parmesan) but I would get it again. The talapia special had mixed results. The fish itself was good (2 pieces) but the batter was overcooked, kind of ruining the effect. The baked potato was piping hot and the perfect size, the creamy coleslaw passed the taste test, but the dinner roll was sort of hard and dry. Next time we go back we will try the chicken dinner. It looked really good when it was brought to a diner sitting at the bar. On our way out, the bartender (who makes a great brandy manhattan!!) held out a small bucket full of Tootsie Pops and said we could each choose one. He was another one with a big smile, and it added to the overall positive feeling we got at George's. Give it a try. We're glad we did.

Steve and Matt are both like favorite uncles, especially if one of your favorite uncles happens to look like Spock's lovely human twin in Steve's case! Prime rib is on-point and on regular rotation every Friday and Saturday, with 9 oz. Queen slabs and 13 oz. King slabs that also come with two shrimp options (sautéed or breaded) if you prefer. The spot is known for their prime rib and their fried chicken, and I'm definitely coming back to try that chicken after this first impression. Steve has also owned the place for a decade now and still makes a point to chat with every patron as they're leaving - you'll find real country hospitality here. And don't even think of leaving without grabbing a sucker!
