Perfect place to grab a couple tacos to go, walk to the beach or grab a bench on the boardwalk and eat vs having to wait to sit down somewhere and get a huge/overpriced/underwhelming meal like a majority of other options in Canal Park.

You order outside, but then you can either sit outside to eat or go inside a dining room. So there's plenty of seating and clean restrooms. We would come by again for the birria tacos.

We each got 3 street tacos. The Al Pastor was delicious. It's not the cheapy stuff you get at a lot of Tex-Mex places, but the real deal: roasted on a vertical spit. It was DELISH! Salty and slightly sweet and perfect. Also got the suadero which is a slow simmered beef and the arracherra steak tacos. All of them were great and served in soft fresh corn tortillas with cilantro, fresh onions, and a lime wedge. We tried all 3 of their salsas, the mild was delicious with avocado and garlic and the spiciest was hot but not too hot. As a shared side we got the esquite, which was corn with a lime-mayo, cheese, and a little salsa. It was great! If you're in downtown Duluth, this place is worth the stop in!

Sadly no. I was still excited on trying the food. Server and other staff I interacted with were awesome. I didn't order my regular because I wasn't going to be here long enough to have leftovers. I ordered a cheese enchilada, chile relleno and rice with a lemonade. I asked the server how they made the relleno and she explained it. It was made authentically. So, chips were warm and had. Just the right amount of salt. The salsa lacked salt. The rice was the best. Very good rice. The relleno had a good flavor but was missing the egg batter. There was some but not enough. The enchilada. Now, I'm not sure what kind of cheese was used but it was really sweet. The enchilada sauce was also too sweet. The lemonade was also too sweet. If I was in the area longer I would be back to try something else. I'm a looker so I was looking at other peoples plates and their stuff looked and smelled really good.

Unfortunately, the Cubano sandwich was just not good. The meat was unrecognizable as ham or pork due to the grayish color. The cheese was melty but didn't taste fresh. Despite eating the sandwich within 10 or so minutes of getting it, the bread was soggy. I usually think of a Cubano as bright and flavorful, and this was drab and questionably edible. I split it with a friend but neither of us finished our half. Things I would have dismissed, if the sandwich were good - were the absence of any type of seating, no bathroom or place to wash my hands, location, and they didn't cut our sandwich in half.

We sat at the end of the bar in front of the glass wash station. Our waitress was pleasant despite. She checked in with us a few times during our meal. The prices are comperable to other similar establishments but I feel the portions here make it one step above. The wings are the huge sized wings if you like those. The curly fries (for the 2nd time) were overcooked and crunchy. They have 1919 root beer on it's own tap! It was fun to just look around at the decor and play "I Spy". The restrooms were pleasant. Now, the part I hope the owner reads. There was a busboy, whom I feel may be family, "working" there. I surmised this because if I were one of those waitresses, I'd have had some WORDS long ago. I can honestly say this young man is probably costing you way more money than having him there, unless your sole reason is to keep him out of trouble...even so. He was very obviously working harder at not working than actually doing so. I feel like this is a very common example of our youth as a whole right now. He literally, for our ENTIRE stay (which took double the time as any usual meal does due to the kitchen being so slow) basically shuffled in front of us getting in the way of every waitress trying to do their job. He opened the coolers repeatedly turning labels, looking like he was checking stock, etc. I'm certain the bottles ended up being 4 degrees warmer, especially when he left the doors cracked open. Waitresses were carrying LOADS of dishes to the back and only occasionally, when he noticed, would he go back to the kitchen only to emerge right back in front of us. He seemed to like washing glasses though. Just one or two he'd slowly concentrate on them spending as much time as possible. Nothing like someone's face constantly inches from your food. Another time after coming from the back, he switched the big screen from football to car racing, which was also on the smaller TV. People were mildly watching the game. They had to ask a waitress to switch it back. When we were finished with our meals, we neatly stacked the tray/basket/silverware with the napkins on top, clearly indicating they were ready to be taken, at the edge of the bar, pretty much right under his nose as he washed glasses. Nope, the lightbulb didn't go on. A waitress came and took mine away. My Mom finished hers later and did the same. Still he didn't get a clue. I could see the frustration on the other's faces. I was exhausted just watching him do absolutely nothing. PLEASE teach this young man manners, consideration, work ethic, and teamwork. If he plans to go into management of any kind, nevermind, carry on. At the very least, find someplace else for him to be and alleviate the frustration for those employees who ARE trying to do their jobs. On the flip side, if I were to give the benefit of the doubt, perhaps he was doing his intended job of monitoring other employees to ensure everything is on the up and up and to report back. In any case, this seems to be going more into a rant than a review of the establishment. Love Gronk's in general and look forward for an opportunity to stop in when I'm in town. Don't miss out!

We were swayed to try this place due to other Yelp reviews and are so thankful we did! We started with an appetizer of fries. These were SO good! Perfect combination of crisp and soft and served with tasty sauces to dip in. The main courses were wonderful. I had the chicken burrito bowl which was a flavor explosion of fabulousness! Huge portions with plenty to take home. My husband had the burger and raved about the flavor combination. He would have liked the ability to choose how he wanted it prepared as he prefers more of a medium rather than done burger. My daughter and cousin both got sandwiches and enjoyed them completely. The side items at our table also got raving reviews including the cream corn, the grits, and the fritters. Nothing was sub par! My granddaughter did not like her Mac and cheese as it was made from scratch and not a box and the flavors were a little more adult than she is. :). The only negatives we had were minor. Kids receive a menu with a coloring page but no crayons. Hard to occupy them with just a picture. The second is the inability to have your burger done to your taste. The last was the server was not very attentive. We had to ask for drink refills and she promptly forgot to fill them. Didn't check in enough to see if we were ok. However, the person who brought out the food was super good and helped increase the service rating. Overall, because of the quality of the food we would recommend and return ourselves. They have a wonderful patio for outdoor dining and we would love to try that in the future. Even though we were there during the lunch rush, it was not too loud to hold conversation and it felt very homey! Perfect summer evening venue!
