I'm in town for a few weeks. I asked the woman at the front desk of the hotel "Whats the best…read moreburger in the area?" Without hesitation she said "King's Place" She was right. I went there for lunch and sat at the bar. The bartenders were very friendly and helpful. There are over 100 choices of burger combinations on the menu. The burger was delicious. I told my boss about it and now we're going there for dinner tonight. Twice in 1 day? Yup! And I'll be back before I head back home.

The Burger Monarchy: A Paradox of Plenty in Miesville In the…read morequiet, pastoral stretches outside Eagan, there exists a roadside institution that defies the modern trend of curated minimalism. King's Place in Miesville is a relic of a different era, a burger joint that functions less like a restaurant and more like a high-volume assembly line of Americana. The menu is not merely large; it is an overwhelming, multi-page manifesto of beef. With roughly 80 to 100 variations on the burger--many named in tribute to the local Miesville Mudhens baseball team--the experience begins with a bout of genuine decision paralysis. For the average diner, the sheer volume of choices feels like a dare. It is a place where you can find almost any topping imaginable, which makes the absence of a simple fried mushroom all the more jarring. It is the one note the kitchen fails to hit in an otherwise exhaustive symphony. When the food does arrive, the logistics are the primary entertainment. The floor staff at King's Place perform a nightly feat of athletic grace, weaving through the crowded, character-filled dining room while balancing five or more burger trays at a time. It is a spectacle of efficiency that puts the sterile, automated nature of modern chains to shame. However, one must navigate the side dishes with a discerning eye. While the temptation to "upgrade" is always present, the seasoned waffle fries are an investment that yields little return; they are best skipped in favor of the standard fare. The real value here lies in the core product and the refreshing lack of pretension. Despite the fame and the daunting menu, the pricing remains stubbornly reasonable, a rare feat for an establishment that has transitioned from a local secret to a regional landmark. "Life is too short to miss out on the beautiful things like a double cheeseburger." -- Channing Tatum For those seeking the predictable polish of a franchise, King's Place will be a confusing sensory overload. But for the traveler who values soul, speed, and a price point that respects the wallet, this is a kingdom worth visiting--just don't expect to find a fried mushroom on your plate.

I liked that the jukebox was loud, but not so loud that you couldn't carry on a conversation. The menu is what you'd expect from a bar and grill consisting of your standard appetizers (fries, wings, tots, etc) with the inclusion of mini corn dogs, mini tacos which one doesn't see too often. We didn't go off the beaten path, since I hadn't been here in a long time, and we opted for Patty Melt and the Mino Burger. Both were plenty good, AND you can have that burger served as a single or a double, depending on your ability to eat/appetite. This is a great way-point for my travels to Wisconsin, and I will certainly be back. It's right on Main Street, you can't miss it.

The menu is like 6 pages long, consistent with other Mexican joints there's endless combinations. Fajitas kind of greasy and I'm not a fan of the mushrooms and zucchini in the mix. Enchiladas are saucy, just too much sauce. Not my favorite. Puff taco really good, seems more fresh, has good combination of flavors. I've had Burrito supreme and Burrito California, both have been my favorite items. They are big, it will fill up larger appetites for sure.

The chips were old and not fresh (chewy, not crisp) and the salsa tasted like bottled taco sauce, it was not appetizing at all. My burrito was tasteless, we sat in a booth that has been taped up and obviously needs to be replaced. My friends taco salad was taste-less, ground beef had no taste either. The service was meh--our waitress (fake eyelashes) was so rude (I have had her before and she is never nice, and always acts like she is being asked too much when I asked for a refill.). She could be the owner, but she needs a class on being kind to customers. Figure it out, girl! One another thing, the windows were full of flies buzzing around our booth, it was gross. I do not know what you do with that, but figure it out, gross! We will not be back~

They also offer igloo dining, which you can reserve ahead, such a fun touch & especially in colder months. The fries cost a few dollars extra, which was a little surprising at first, but honestly, they're worth the upgrade. The standard chips that come with meals are just bagged, which was a bit of a letdown...I was at least hoping for something house-made. Still, overall a really solid spot!

Typical bar food things to select from. The interior was clean and comfortable. The food was decent and portions were large. My only complaint is that the grill is an open concept in the bar area so you see everything being prepared. I was shocked to see the grill cook handle all the food items with bare hands. Then he would take a seat at the bar only to get up and cook more food without washing his hands. Rather disgusting in my book thus the 3 rating.

They were out rather fast and were your basic packaged curds. I would certainly go with the chicken wings next time. On person in our party of 6 ordered them as a main course and they were very good. Crispy batter and juicy chicken. I elected to try the Patty melt because it promoted a HUGE patty. Well my HUGE is much different than this one! The patty melt had good taste but I would certainly go with a different selection next time. The texas toast was toasted perfectly but it was just small. The tots were good but I wouldn't pay the upcharge next time. The FF are much better. My wife had Chicken bacon/ranch sandwich. She said it was moist with a crispy batter. She was very happy with the quantity and quality of the meal. Other in our party had the Eye opener (breakfast) burger with FF and like I said the FF are the right choice. Burger was good. Other meal order was boneless wings. they were also a good choice. Overall an OK place to eat. Certainly better than the McD down the street.

Everything was cooked perfectly and was better than what I had expected. The service was alright. We went in mid-day and there were 4 people behind the bar. 1 person (our server) seemed to be the only one running around to all the tables, and pouring all the beers. We had asked for our bill and waited an additional 20 mins as our server seemed to be behind the pouring of beer... yet the other stood around and conversed. That was the only area of improvement. We'd go back and give it a shot though!
