This review is going to be difficult to write because I have such mixed feelings. My last rating…read morewas a five-star review and parts of my wife's and I experience merit another five stars, but parts of the same experience merit a one-star. And that makes it difficult! Let's start with the positive... Their prime rib continues to be fantastic. It's meaty, flavorful, and juicy. After having some prime rib specials at other restaurants, I can really see that they quality varies. In addition, Dehn's dinner comes with excellent Parker-house rolls and butter, cup of au jus, and a baked potato -- all of which is good. It also comes with soup or salad. Their Beef Barley soup is one of the best version of beef barley soup that I've ever had. It's loaded with ingredients, the broth has a deep flavor and I have always enjoyed their version of it. So far, this is five star territory. However, on to the not so good... I ordered the prime rib medium rare and it was clearly medium to medium well done. Honestly, if you want medium rare, medium well done is a big disappointment. I asked the waitress for a more rare piece and when she returned she told me that the chef said the piece I got was from the center of the roast and was the rarest piece they had. Although they took $8 off the price, it was not a great experience and the meat just could have been much more juicy and tasty if they had cooked it properly. But there is more. My wife order the fried chicken and for the third time in a row, they said they didn't have it. (Dehn's, if you don't carry it, either take it off the menu or tell your guests about it before they order). My wife went with the grilled chicken breast, which arrived looking like and tasting like either a frozen piece of chicken, or a bad airline meal (for those of you who can remember that). It was really tasteless and dry. In addition to all of that, we waited 15 minutes to be seated in the nearly empty restaurant because (we were told) they were short staffed. In fact, there seemed to be one waitress and one kitchen staff person for the restaurant. Service was slow (although friendly by the person who wasn't really a waitress). So what's up with Dehn's? The area around the restaurant is turning from farm land to housing. The hours of the restaurant have been cut severely and they are now only open for dinner on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday nights. My gut tells me that they are "caretaking" the restaurant and that although they have been open since 1958, I doubt they are going to see 2028.

Stopped in on a Saturday evening and had a great experience. We ordered the Prime Rib and it was…read moretasty. The outer crust spice rub was excellent and the meat was beautifully marbled. Salad was good and the house blue cheese dressing is good. Baked potato done for easy eating and the insides were soft and flavorful. Hot dinner rolls too. Service was excellent and they even had a group of 40 in the back room. Ambiance is old time supper club. The value for the money is good. Give this place a try!

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.

Stopped here for dinner w/ 2 friends. There's a bit of construction that makes getting here a bit…read moreconfusing depending on which direction you are traveling. The gps sent me to a roundabout and told me the restaurant was the center of the roundabout. had to go back to the main road and detour all the way around then there was signs. Its seat yourself. 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.

I ordered the Compart Duroc Pork Chop which was prepared perfectly medium rare with a side of asparagus and garlic mashed potatoes. Mmmm good. Creme brulee and one other dessert which were both very nicely prepared and very good! We will be back here again for dinner as well as beverages and apps.

In general it's a pretty ethnic menu. How cool that it has a special menu for elote items. I…read moresampled the corn on the cob and loved it. I ordered the risotto only because I loved all the ingredients listed. It was delicious with plenty of liquid in it. We shared a Caesar salad. Wonderful as well. I had a taste of salmon, another winner. I don't think there's one throwaway item on the menu. Fresh brewed iced tea, check. Our server Ximenez from Ecuador was amazing and on top of everything. I was also impressed with Emily the manager. I let her know about our great first time experience. There is so much staff here and she's running around with the rest of them, yet I knew she was in charge just by looking at her. The decor is beautiful and lots of booths and tables split on two sides of the room. I was debating our friend about the strange layout of the restrooms and I liked it. Especially that you don't have to walk far. Each private bathroom is unisex and in general a child shouldn't go in alone anyway. Handwashing could be a shared experience, yet it's wide open. I'd love to come back and even try the weekend brunch.

The dive bar feel was so great and lots of sports teams were there enjoying themselves. Lots of TVs with sports on and a TON of beer on tap! My kind of place! Besides the long wait, I loved this place! Next time, we will order the pizza when we leave the Cities and we should all be good. Try it out for a small town dive bar with great food!
