One of the few places open on a weekday after 9PM in Mankato…read more Lots of tables and bar area. A dozen or so TVs with sports running. The table service was friendly but slow as they got hit with the after game crowd. The food came out quick though after ordering. We had the queso with chips and they offer pita option too(nice add of seasoned beef). The bowl was large .. we asked and received more chips. Then we went for the boneless wings ... two orders of 12 with four different flavors. The bang bang was meh. The teriyaki and Korean bbq were good. But for me the bourbon glaze was smack ... serious bourbon flavor.

We were looking forward to coming back after a great experience the first time we came to the…read moreestablishment. Today, however, we ordered a burger among other things and we were brought the incorrect burger. Our server came to our table and explained he brought the wrong burger. We had already cut and taken a bite of it and said it's okay we will just take what we were brought rather than waiting for a replacement. When we got the bill we were still charged for the burger we ordered even though we didn't receive it. When we asked our waiter, Griffin, why we were charged for it, his comment was "well it was cheaper than what you ate." When we asked to talk to the manager, Sawyer, her comment was "well you ate the burger didn't you?" They did not comp the burger and argued they didn't need too. Bummed we had this experience and will not return.

They are kind of like toasted raviolis filled with cream cheese and jalapeños. Their hand dipped tendies are excellent! And their house made sauce is just as good. My friend really enjoyed her wings and salad. I tried both of her sauces and they were super flavorful, the wings are not fried so do not expect them to be crispy. Overall, I'm looking forward to a return visit.

They sent me a text within 5 minutes saying a booth was ready. They had hockey games on the tv's, and was definitely a noisy place but we could still hear each other and carry on a good conversation. We ordered wings, tequila like chicken tacos and the BTH burger. All the food was good and our server was on top of things. Was very impressed with things and will definitely be back.

I'm not that picky, so if I'm not feeling my burger and regular fries or the cheese curds or the chicken sandwich and sweet potato fries and I even think the milkshake is one sip and well I guess this isn't actually awful, well, yeah. I doubt I'll be back and if I am it's bc someone I love wants to go here and I'm too tired to negotiate. Solid beer list.

The drinks were a fun part of the evening. I had a couple of house Old Fashions that were full-flavored with the Cocoa bitters and made with the large round ice. The "Dealer's Choice" dealt a Huckleberry Mule that was perfect. Highly recommended! Pub 500 comes highly recommended!

I asked for water and asked her to disregard. I inquired about the fish and chips as I noted you can upgrade to get Walleye instead. Seemed like she had no idea what I asked as she gave the impression she thought it was something else other than fish. I ended up getting the cod as she recommended. Well, it tasted like frozen for a very long time. Chips- not the best. Instead of a bacon cheddar biscuit, the plate came with cornbread which was ok. Overall, probably a good place for drinks. Not sure I'll try again.

I usually get the All-American burger, and if do it as part of a lunch special it's an EXCELLENT deal. I customize the burger and it always comes out correct.

All in all I think this is a great place to stop by for lunch!!

Last month the kitchen was so behind it took over 60 minutes to get our food. The wait staff even seemed frustrated offering their tables free deserts. Then this past week we were given our bill and then our waitress stopped working. Not just our table but all of her tables. People were walking up to the wait staff kiosk in the middle to check out. 15 minutes after giving us our bill, I finally had to waive someone down to pay. Not sure they deserve a second chance.. maybe I'll give it a few months and see if they've resolved some of there issues.

We went there for lunch and they had incredible drink deals - $2.50 bloody Mary's, mimosas, or screwdrivers. Staff were kind and service was quick (even with a group of 12). The food options were good and prices fair, I liked the small plate portions for people like me who eats less at one sitting. The chicken tenders were pretty good, and you can't go wrong with homemade ranch and waffle fries! My fiancé loved his burger and scarfed it down, even having leftover fries due to the amount they give you (good problem to have). Bees were surrounding us outside but that's not Rounder's fault. The bathrooms were atrocious, our feet stuck to the floors quite literally and the soap was out of both men's and women's. (Came back at night and someone had vomited in the women's, it was all over and stunk so bad people couldn't use the bathroom - it took a long time before someone cleaned it). Overall, decent food, fair prices but expect sticky floors and the night crowd to come out on weekend evenings!
