I'd rate it a 6.3/10. It was pretty boozy, so maybe a little less alcohol would make it smoother. For food, I ordered the Birria tacos, recommended by my server who was great! and they were actually very good--well seasoned, flavorful consomé, and a generous portion of meat. I also liked that it came with rice so you can mix it with the consomé. The chips and salsa with the rice were a bit too filling though; I'd say pick one or the other. My son got the wings (half buffalo, half sweet heat). The wings are always yummy here! I'd give them an 8.9/10. Overall, it's a great spot to stop for dinner, especially if you're catching a movie afterward since it's within walking distance of Andover Cinema.

My grandson and his girlfriend both enjoyed their meals. (Meatloaf and ?) Halfway through dinner they exchanged plates and seemed pleased with each other's choices. (IDK, it's something they do.) All in all, it was a pleasant culinary experience.

If we were told off the bat, we would have went elsewhere. Also, the food was not good. Ordered the Big DMB with onion rings and the Turkey Supreme. The burger was okay. But the onion rings were soggy and cold. The turkey sandwich was greasy and soggy as well. My husband and I both got sick from the food with food poisoning.The waitress never checked on us until we were waiting for boxes. The host sat everyone on top of each other by the bar. It was very loud and could barely hear across the table. Not a pleasant experience.

They tasted fresh, delicious and were hot upon delivery. My husband ordered the walleye with broccoli as his main entree. My daughter ordered a Philly cheesesteak and I ordered the shrimp fajitas. The shrimp were cooked perfectly! I love the combination of green bell peppers and onions that is sautéed to give the shrimp a great flavor. The cilantro rice that comes with the dish was slightly undercooked. It usually is good but this time was off. My tortillas were also a bit on the dry side. Overall, always get great service here. The restaurant is clean and provides for a relaxing atmosphere. I do recommend trying them out.

Sis and I took a last-minute Thursday late afternoon roadtrip up Hwy 8 due to a FB Marketplace…read morepickup. It was dinnertime and I asked the Seller a restaurant they recommend in the area. She told us The Northern and to make sure to order the cheese curds. Looking at the menu before hitting the road again, sis and I knew the place was for us: burgers, sandwiches and wraps. Pulling into the parking lot was easy. Even though looked full, we were still able to find a spot. I want to note the gorgeous view of the red barn/farm across from the pond when pulling in. I noticed a patio on the North side of the building, which would put this farm in your view. We did have about a 20 minute wait for a table for 2. The restaurant looked busy from what I could see. Once we were brought to out table, I then noticed that the bar seating was pretty much open. Had I known, we might have elected to just sit at the bar. However, I asked for menus right away so that we could at least ponder it during that 20 minutes. We were sat at a high top right near the kitchen door. Being able to see all the food come out, I changed my mind on what I was going to order almost 10 times. We asked for the cheese curds as soon as we were greeted by our waitress. OMGosh! They were in the shape of cubes, deep fried to golden perfection. The outside had perfect firmness from the fryer. The inside was gooey, salty white cheese. Perfect just by itself. It did come with a ranch dipping sauce that was just so yummy. It reminded me a seasoned sour cream. The waitress didn't know the brand of the cheese curds (ie. Ellsworth) but did say the ranch was homemade Sis ordered the Great Northern Burger with French fries. She's a fan of BBQ sauce, bacon and onion rings on a burger. Fries were nicely seasoned, long, soft and semi-skin-on (not crinkle or steak fries). Burger was huge and worth the $15.99 price tag. I settled on the BOTM, the Nacho Burger, with tator tots. Toppings included nacho cheese, Fritos chips, bacon, diced/sliced jalapenos. The tator tots were one of the best I've ever had. Again, seasoned nicely. And the perfect ratio of hard outside crunch to soft inside potato. The Nacho burger was huge too....and messy with the nacho cheese. The Fritos did get a little soggy at the end. The bacon was under the melted cheese. And there were plenty of jalapenos hidden under the meat patty. Those were easy to discard so I could control how many fiery peppers were in my mouth at one time. Was service slower than normal? Yes. Was the service friendly? Yes. Was it worth the wait? Also YES! I would definitely recommend (I already have to my coworkers.) for anyone who loves gourmet burgers. They also have a nice variety to the sandwich, wraps, tacos and flatbread menu. I will just have to take the 40 minute drive again to try something else.
