The menu caters to a bar food scene with tasty pizzas, sandwiches, and burgers. We had pizza and burgers and we're not disappointed. High quality ingredients made common bar food exceptional. All of our food was great but one exceptional item was the stuffed avocados, very unique and good. Next time, we will try the armadillo eggs. Finally, don't skip on the psycho milkshakes. Totally worth $10 and loaded full of great stuff. I would come here just for one of their shakes. We had the Monster Cookie one and it hit the spot! Perfect way to end a fun meal.

Stopped in on a Saturday afternoon to grab a bite and watch some college football. The MN gopher…read moregame had just ended. The place was definitely short staffed...it seemed as though the only waitress was also the bartender so service was a bit slow. It was still busy in the restaurant from the game. I also politely asked if they could change a tv so I could watch my alma mater's football game. I'm a patient person but that took roughly 20ish minutes for her to change it...I think she forgot and then all of a sudden remembered. I ordered what I ordered the last time which was the chimichurri cauliflower steak bowl. It was great but missed the lime wedge it had on my last visit. The food was good. I also noticed that when she did have time to check in on my hubby who was drinking beer she didn't notice that my drink was empty as well as my sons. Therefore she didn't ask if we needed a refill. Hopefully the service will be better next time.

I drove from Chaska to Burnsville, where they were parked. I got three burgers to try the Hot Honey,OG, and the Bourbon Bacon. I gave the OG to my husband, who liked it. He eats everything only if he likes it. All the burgers were absolutely delicious and one of the best I've ever had. I wanna joke that it's definitely a better than sex item. I was hungry, so I ate it faster than I should have. I will try and visit the home base.

We have done the food truck at the New Hope Hy Vee several times as well. A delicious juicy burger perfectly seasoned with a massive crispy meat skirt. Served with fries at Rosetown (but I believe not at the remote food truck) the fries are worth it. The bun was great and held up to the juicy burger. This one is not to be missed! One single and one double cheese plain came to $30 cash with tax and tip. Great value.

The burgers, sandwiches, fries, sauces were all delightful; so flavorful and thoughtfully put together. My boyfriend said his sandwich was one of the best sandwiches he has EVER HAD!

The restaurant itself was so cute and fun and such nice bathrooms! You will not be disappointed if you try this!

Needless to say a little bit frosty.. They don't do Tips, i left $12 cash on the table. Would I recommend it no. Would I schedule another family meal here no. If someone else invites me here, I will show up and roll with the punches.

Atmosphere: upscale yet everyone is down to earth. Food: Everything arrived piping hot. The chicken had a crunchy exterior with pops of juicy, flavor-packed bites that kept earning an audible "mmhmm." Fabulous value too! Two burgers, fries, and a drink for $33 before tip. My wallet and stomach were both very happy. Safe to say... we'll be returning! Thank you Oliver's!!

My guy tried the Crab Rangoon Flatbread, and while it was a fun concept, we both felt the flavors could have been a little bolder. Overall, a great place to check out with plenty of options to please different tastes.

Great patio! We came by here around 4pm on a sunny afternoon for some burgers on the patio, and…read morethis place did not disappoint. The patio was fairly with constant turnover while we were there, the weather was great, and the service was A+! The inside definitely has a dark dive bar vibe, good for some occasions but not super family friendly, but we felt comfortable having a little one with us out on the patio. The food was delicious! We tried the "wings" (made of chicken thighs) and they gave regular wings a run for their money! You can do two flavors which is great, and they're very filling. We also got a burger and the special of the night, chopped cheese, and thought it was delicious. Great portions, we had a ton left to take home. The cocktail was delicious as well, will definitely try more when we come back next to hang out on the patio! Come check this place out!

It's not what we expected at all and it was so light and delicious and it went down very nicely! lol We will definitely be back!

I've never had such bad service before. I came here a bit ago and suggested to come here with the…read morelarge group I was with, but that wasn't a good idea at all. The space is quite large with open seating - something I'd expect is great for a large group. I asked if we could combine some tables and the staff said they'd do it for us. We ended up having a table for 8. While more people in my group showed up than expected, we ended up adding a few more chairs. With the open seating and lots of tables available, we thought it would be fine. However, the staff didn't seem to be too happy with us. Our group had not gotten together in a while, so a couple of us had switched chairs to talk with different people. The server said in a very rude way, "You guys need to stop switching seats. I can't keep track of your orders and you want this on separate checks, right?" We had never asked for separate checks and I would have offered to pay on one check if it made it easier, but she left right after saying that. Towards the end of our stay, after paying and enjoying some last minute shakes (around 9:15pm, they close at 10), the same server started putting away the metal chairs VERY loudly and carelessly while we were still finishing up. We all watched her throw the chairs on top of each other as we stayed silent because we couldn't hear each other over her stacking them. We took the hint and left. Everyone inside the restaurant followed after. I assume because they, too, felt awkward as she was loudly cleaning up. The food was mid at best, the beer selection and unique combinations are great, but the bad service made the experience miserable. I didn't notice the server treating any other guests as bad as our table, so I am just not sure why she treated us the way she did. I definitely won't be back.

My wife and I had never been to--or even heard of--Baldamar, so when our friends invited us to…read moreRestaurant Week there, we thought it was the perfect opportunity to give it a try. From the hostess who graciously held the doors open for us in the 95° heat to our incredible server, David, everything was outstanding. We started with cocktails. I had what may have been the best bourbon Old Fashioned I've ever tasted, and my wife enjoyed a wonderfully refreshing cocktail (whose name I, unfortunately, can't remember). We began our meal with the roasted Brussels sprouts. Normally, I'm not much of a Brussels sprouts fan, but I happily cleaned the plate. My wife and I shared the 12-ounce filet mignon, cooked medium rare, and it was absolute perfection. Chef's kiss. David recommended a bottle of wine to pair with our steak. It wasn't inexpensive, but it was worth every penny. But wait... there's more. As incredible as that wine was with the filet, it somehow paired even better (yes, I know that sounds impossible) with the slice of heaven they call chocolate cake. I'm sure it has a much fancier name on the menu, but "slice of heaven" seems more accurate. If you've read my other reviews, you know I have a tendency toward hyperbole. If there were ever a time to lean into it, this is it. THIS MEAL WAS FANTASTIC. THE AMBIANCE WAS PERFECT. THE FOOD WAS EXCEPTIONAL. AND THE COMPANY WAS DIVINE. We will absolutely be back--and when we do, we'll be asking for a table in David's section. (He works Tuesday through Friday.)

I started with the tequila and mezcal Old Fashioned, and it was fantastic. It was well-balanced, beautifully presented, and garnished perfectly. The food was equally impressive. The wings were delicious--crispy, well-seasoned, and cooked perfectly. My only small note would be that the celery was a little limp. The Caesar salad has officially been added to my regular rotation. The jammy egg was cooked perfectly with a rich, yolky center that was still easy to slice. The Parmesan crisps were thoughtfully sized, adding great texture without being so large they scraped the roof of your mouth. The salad was evenly dressed, making every bite flavorful. Overall, excellent food, outstanding cocktails, and warm, attentive service. I'll definitely be back.
