The quality of the food declines every time we go (which used to be weekly, then monthly, then bi-monthly, and now, well, time for a break. I'm sure they are now ordering from the bottom tier of Sysco. Cheapest quality beef for burgers, cheapest quality fish for fish&chips or a sandwich. Bottem tier "deli" meat for sandwiches. I'm sad for them. We'll try again in 5 or 6 months, but I'm not holding out much hope.

We were seated right away. They have TV on for sports and it can be quite loud (as expected) We did not expect it to be as loud since we had a baby with us. Bring headphones if you have a baby. Service was fast. Our server checked on us many times to make sure we were taken care of. Great service. To the point that I just finished my plate and he instantly took the plate away as well. lol Food all tasted good. Zucchini fries is soft in the inside and a little crispy on the outside. I wish it was crispier. Brussels sprout was good but a little burnt. Fish is crispy and good. The burger was good as well. Price is reasonable. Definitely worth going but just mind the loud ambient

Bacon Jam burger is known to be a crowd favorite and it delivered. A great cheese and smoke combination complement the burger in a way that just works. Ok the real winner here is that you can sub your fries with one of many sides and the one must try are the Brussels sprouts caramelized and drizzled with a balsamic these are just perfectly executed. And so reasonably priced Northstar Tavern does check all the boxes.

I got the…read moreBlack and bleu burger which was delightfully savory and well seasoned, and the bacon added a nice touch of crispiness. The fries are very standard but also done very well. They are crispy but not overly crunchy, and they are seasoned perfectly. You can also get some extra garlic aioli and siracha mayo, which are perfect accompaniments for the fries in addition to ketchup. I also got the strawberry milkshake, which was rich and dense, but a little too sweet. I would probably opt for a different flavor or not get the milkshake at all. The cashier I spoke with was super dope and chill, and also checked in on me to see how everything was which I appreciated. The store was clean and spacious, and accommodating for a solo dining adventure.

I felt like they nickel and dime you for the sauces. We got chicken tenders for my son off the kids menu, but it didn't include a sauce which I thought was odd. I felt for what you get a lot of it was over priced compared to some other similar restaurants. I ordered a burrito with chicken and they didn't add the rice, the veggies were not chopped very finely it was like half a red onion chunk which isn't very appetizing. For the cost of this meal it was somewhat disappointing. The fries were made fresh. The meat was the best part of this place. Maybe it's just meant to be a burger joint and not so much Mediterranean style of food.

We grabbed a seat on the patio since the weather was nice, and the staff was friendly and attentive. Service was quick, and our food arrived in a timely manner. I ordered the Sandy Signature Burger with fries. The burger had great flavor, the onions were cooked perfectly, and the cheese was melted just right. The bun held together well from start to finish, which is always a plus. At only $9 for the burger and $13.75 with fries, it felt like an excellent value and was the perfect amount of food. My wife ordered the Sandy Sizzler with tots, and here's what she had to say: "This burger was juicy and flavorful. The seasoning was spot on, enhancing the beef without overpowering it. The jalapeños added the perfect amount of heat, while the chipotle mayo brought a smoky, creamy kick that tied everything together beautifully. The crispy tots were the perfect side--golden, crunchy, and cooked well. While the portion wasn't huge, it was just the right amount to complement the burger without leaving you overly full." Overall, we were pleasantly surprised. Good food, friendly service, fair prices, and a relaxed atmosphere. We'll definitely stop back if in the area.

This place is a cash only place I think. Well, I've only paid cash when I come here for many many years there was a sign cash only. They might take credit cards now MAYBE I'm not sure but if they do they might charge you a kajillion dollars for the fees lol. Just pay in cash. Bring lots of cash cuz you're gonna want to try the double cheeseburger AND the famous Juicy Lucy. I don't ever get the juicy Lucy because it comes out to piping hot and I don't wanna wait 10 minutes to eat my food lol. Their french fries are just like McDonald's french fries but it taste a lot more fresh. It is so good. You're gonna want to get a full basket. There's always a line out the door so you gotta come here real early.

However, it was a great burger. Between myself and two others, we just shared an order of fries and it was enough - but we do wish they were salted better. We were lucky to get a table right away, but there was quite a line out the door on a Thursday night once we left. We got drinks right away, but the burgers and fries did take quite a bit of time to come out (which for a very limited menu felt odd). Overall, fun environment and good burger!

Burger Burger in Mall of America was a really pleasant surprise. I expected it to be more…read moreexpensive, but the pricing was actually pretty reasonable. When you walk in, there is a separate seating area from the main food court, which is nice. Service was good, and there were a lot of burger options to choose from. Not as many as a place like Five Guys, but still plenty. I also liked that you can add a fried egg to your burger, which you do not see everywhere. I ended up getting a triple cheeseburger with a fried egg and caramelized onions, and it came out to around 13.50, which felt fair. I did not get fries, but they bring your food out to you once you sit down. The seating is pretty standard for a burger spot with simple plastic chairs. The burger itself was really good. The meat had a nice sear and did not taste steamed, which made a big difference. The bun was soft with a slight sweetness, and the caramelized onions and fried egg worked really well together. If you are looking for a solid burger spot in Mall of America that is not overpriced, this is definitely worth trying.

They surprisingly have a lot of vegan choices including Impossible patties, vegan cheese and vegan buns. This location does not have adult boozy shakes.
