Dirty table, all tv's on the same channel with some obscure sporting event on, and music very loud in the bar are but nothing in dinning area so you're just getting the sound from the bar. Food was the real downside. I had the Cowboy burger with onion rings. Burger was over cooked (I asked for medium rare and it was very well done). Onions rings looked good but there was cold batter just below the crust. Sadly I was nauseous when I got home and couldn't eat the next day due to upset stomach. I waited a couple of days to write this to see how it turned out, I'm fine. I question the cleanliness of the place. I doubt very much we'll go back, there's a bad taste from the experience.

Stopped in after a very long NYE day of helping a couple friends move to the area…read more First thing I noticed is just how huge this place is. Upon entry there is a large dining area to the left which looks like it could be used as an event space. To the right is the main dining and bar area that also has a stage. The entire room looks awesome with the lodge them. Plenty of wood everywhere, all the tables, chairs, and stools being made of log. I sat at the bar and was immediately greeted by a huge smile. Both bartenders and the bar back were great durning my visit, treating me as though I was a regular and not ignoring me like you could often expect from a small town bar. I didn't get any food but every single thing I saw came out of the kitchen looked FANTASTIC. I absolutely cannot wait to go back to eat.

It's no secret that if folks are going to support local businesses or any business, really, there needs to be some patience. I have eaten at Red Lodge Grille a few times now, and I have had nothing but a good experience. Even when there was a questionable experience that had nothing to do with my food over present time service, management quite humbly and properly fixed the issue. When the place is busy, it will certainly take some time as is the case with most places. Lunch time is hit or miss with busyness, but usually pretty chill. Depending on what's on the event schedule for the weekends, it can get pretty busy, but isn't that all a part of going out and being social. Ok. So for the food. It's been great! This most recent visit my bride and I were intrigued by the Cajun Pickle Soup. It was delicious! Sounds crazy, I know, but is was worth the try. I got the Jalapeño Popper Burger and is was great. My bride had a wrap of some sort and she loved it. Other times I've eaten here I've had the pizza which is pretty decent. There are pretty decent beer options along with cocktails. Seating is spacious and relatively comfortably with a good selection of booths, tables, and high-tops. The parking lot is a pretty decent size. All in all, a pretty good place.

I have not been to Cokato in the eight years that I have lived in Minnesota, so I was pleasantly surprised. The restaurant space is called upstairs, and the bar is downstairs. It was quiet and the ambiance was great. I did not catch her name, but the lady working there was incredible. She was the only one helping the customers, but she did it all with grace. Shout out to her! For the food, we got their special which was the flame grilled steak and grilled walleye. They were delicious. I did not expect the portion to be that big considering it was $23 for the two meals. We also got their Mac Bites appetizer. Those were good as well. I started following them on Facebook after this meal. I hope to catch more special deals here! Tip: It looks like the deals start at 5PM. If you are in a hurry, come as close to 5PM as possible.

Menu is basically burgers and sandwiches. Food was not bad but not good either. Nothing special. Waitress was nice but was alone, which made things slow. Outdoor seating is for smokers so we chose to eat inside on a beautiful evening. Bottom line, it's a bar, not a restaurant. If you want a place that's kind of dive bar like, then this would be a good place. If you're looking for a nice meal I wouldn't recommend it.

It is quite small inside and is definitely not suitable for large groups. I also felt the seating prioritized style over comfort. This is your typical millennial trendy burger joint that serves water with no ice in a small glass, has higher prices for the portions you are getting, and seems to just have one or two people working. Service was a little slow as it picked up around dinner time. For food, I got the dry rub wings and mac n cheese. My friend got a burger and chips and queso. The food is pretty good. I liked the wings, they had quite a kick to them, and the fries and queso were good. I was not impressed with the mac n cheese. Since Rockford is a small town, I am sure this place fills a void with the limited options they have but I also don't need to return.
