Maybe have your waitresses give the table of 8 a heads up that there will be a 4% credit card charge on a 250+ bill. Not to mention the bar making a margin on the credit card transactions that visa charges them at less than 1.0%. Hate wasting money for no reason, extra $9.20 for the $8 charge and 20% tip on the greedy credit charge. read more

I had hot roast beef. Wow, and their Lava cake desert. This really was a great meal. Tge burgers are as well. Good value with above average serving size and pleasant staff. read more

This place was such a fantastic surprise. We met an old friend there for lunch and were very pleased with the food. We all had different sandwiches and sides. All looked scrumptious and tasted excellent. We will definitely be returning when we are back in town in a couple of weeks. read more

Stopped in the check it out and pleased to find a bowling alley right next to it and attached. That in mind, I was worried that the food might just be mediocre. BUT the food was OMG GOOD!! Cheese curds and wall eye sticks were on point!!! The staff is very pleasant and friendly and the establishment is clean. The fish is fresh and NOT fresh from the freezer! We will be back!!! Be sure to stop in or you'll be missing out! read more

Stopped into Port 104 during the 4th of July holiday. My friends and I found spots at the bar and continued our pondering of life discussions while staff kept us hydrated. Great location and staff. Looking forward to our next visit. read more

We were there on a Saturday afternoon. The food was good. Salads fresh. Onion rings light and airy batter! The sweet potato fries were better than the "big box burger chain". Enjoyed my Philly Cheese Steak sandwich. It was a great choice for a family get together. I would go again. read more

Great place in town with great food and drink options. Pool table, dart boards and bowling for entertainment. Super friendly & helpful staff. Burgers here are great. We frequent here monthly if not more often and have never had a bad experience. Prices are fair,too! read more

Stopped in recently one evening after 7pm. Sat at the bar and waited 15 minutes for someone to at least acknowledge me. That didn't happen so I walked out. I am one that never complains. I've been here a number of times, the fact someone couldn't at least say they'll be with me in a minute is disappointing. Plenty of other places to spend my money at, including next door at the VFW. read more

The place is nice, it's clean, and the server was a nice person that made up for our meal with her service. That's why I'm giving it three stars. The owner/manager should work on communication with their customers and staff. We went there for an all you can eat rib and shrimp special that started at 3 pm. We were there at 3:05 and they were out of ribs. We didn't find out about the shortage of the ribs until we were given extra time to look at the menu. Then we decided the lobster Mac N cheese would be good to try instead. That wasn't available either. We went for the ribeye. It was so terribly fatty that it made my daughter and I nauseous. It's not worth the prices or the trip to try it again. read more

We went to Port 104 to watch the Big 10 basketball championship tournament. 90 minutes into the second semifinal game, there was a bartender change and the new one, Justin, randomly changed the TV to a random golf game. We had been there for 90 minutes watching the game and when we protested, we were first ignored and then met with a callused "can't be bothered to change back" attitude. Not going there again. read more

Enjoyed their Build your own Bloody Mary bar on a Saturday morning. Kickass brand condiments and sausage sticks were tasty, especially the hot pickled Brussel sprouts! Friendly and skilled bartender. We split their mushroom appetizer and garlic chicken sandwich. YUM! Homemade potato chips included with the sandwich and were out of this world!!! The place had a friendly down home feel. People were playing indoor bean bags which seemed quite fun. read more

Food is basic but good for a bowling alley restaurant. Cafeteria style type ambience of table set up. Service was great. Food is good for the price but nothing to rave about. Large pork chops seem to be their specialty. I had chicken which was a little dry but good. Several potatoe choices to choose from but you get meat and potato. Order soup or veggie add-on if hungry. read more

If you are in the mood for a great hamburger we advise you to go today to Port 104! There is a lot of great food on the menu but the Smashburger is top notch. Our party of 9 also had great service by the staff. They accommodated us at the last minute and did a great job getting the food out looking good and tasting great! There is a juke box that we kept rockin with non stop music to add to the atmosphere of food and fun. A great time was had by all! Thank you Port 104! read more

Not sure where to begin... First off they upsold us with a side salad by asking "Soup or Salad?" not mentioning that there is a $2 upcharge I would have said neither if informed. The salad as iceberg lettuce with a cherry tomato and a small cucumber. I ordered crapy stuffed shrimp with au gratin potatoes (They were so overcooked the cheese turned to oil, they were disgusting. My girlfriend ordered Sweet and Spicy Chicken Skewers - Three skewers stacked with seasoned chicken, roasted peppers, onions, mushrooms, and pineapple layered on a bed of rice blend They were skewers drowning in this Asian sweet chili sauce she could not even eat them they were so bad, the rice was served on the side and it was bland. The bartender took our plates could tell we didn't like it and didn't bother to ask if there was issues. I would not go back here to eat again. read more

Absolutely the worst fish fry I have ever had. 20 bucks a plate and inedible. Hard tasteless rubber. I was waiting for the waitress to ask us why we didn't eat our food but she never did. We paid and left. Man this was bad. I don't like to complain but with the price of eating out doubling in the last 3 years, I expect something I can swallow. Never again. read more

We were in town for the MN State baseball subsection playoffs. Our first choice was the Railhouse grill but it was closed that day. I heard this was a close second so we gave it a try. The service was slow especially given the few people inside. But that ends the bad marks. The burger and fries were served as ordered and piping hot. Not a bad second choice and worth a try if you are in downtown. read more

We came in it was busy. We got our beers right away. The menu looked good. Some ordered there fish that was 4 piece we got only 2 pieces, we asked the waitress why she said lol we usually cut them in half ‍. We need to Black it out on the menu to only 2 pieces.. some ordered there wings, they came with batter on them horrible. The menu does not say they are battered. The fries were cold like they were sitting out to long. The waitress said oh really I'm sorry and that was it. I told her I will not pay for my food. She goes oh okay and walked away!! Not a place I will return too!!! read more

I stopped for lunch, on Sunday, and tried the " hot roast beef", Well it was a real surprise , the beef came shredded in a clump, with some kind of dehydrated mashed potatoes, with a brown salty gravy... Made from beef concentrate, corn strach, and water.... The kind you get in school lunch.... Then it had 4 pieces of buttered toast.. Really what a bad idea on an old "blue plate special!!" It was a 2 star event, and I'm being kind for $9.00...! I recommend avoiding this kitchen, go to the Rail House for some pretty good food! read more

Really liked this place! We were looking for a relaxed lunch and Bloody Marys, and they delivered. Great bartender! We had solid good food and drinks, watched Twins game at the bar and generally were made to feel great. Loved the cheese in the BMs, and the barkeep shared the cheese type and info. Very nice place and staff. Would go again! read more

First time to visit this place and so disappointed; been waiting for quite sometime and I understand that waitress was working by herself but a little acknowledgment would have been nice. Like we did not exists at all so we left. read more

The best thing I can say about Port 104 is that the servers are friendly and attentive. By far, our server was the most impressive element of our lunch. Wifey had the Nachos, which were merely "okay, nothing to write home about". She noted that instead of shredded cheddar cheese sprinkled on top, they used the dreaded "cheese sauce" that you find at the county fair. I had the grilled chicken Caesar salad, which was also merely "ok". The Romaine lettuce was limp and soaked with Caesar dressing. But the flavor of the dressing itself was good. The chicken and croutons were also decent. Again, not terrible, but not "delicious". Beware if you go at a busy time like lunch time. The food took a long time to arrive at our table after ordering. It was close to 35 minutes. This is perhaps an unfair review because we've only eaten here once, but we don't see any compelling reason to come back for a second visit. read more

Terrible food! Burger King has a better meat compared to tge Fahrenheit burger. No flavor. Don't try the steak salad. It needs a feta, red onions, and a different dressing. Dissapointed. read more

Utterly lovely! Great burger and Walleye fingers. Our waitress was Rhapsody and she was delightful! There was a table full of idiots right next to us and she was still very polite to them. You are a better woman than I am! read more

I was on a day trip with my son this afternoon and decided to stop in. I got the kids burger for my son and I had the port burger with fries. The server asked how I'd like my burger and I responded "medium" (yea right, like I'll actually get a medium burger). Both our burgers came and they were both way over cooked and dry as a dog turd in the summer Sun. I notified the server about the burger and asked for a new one, this time with very light seasoning, the first was way too salty. The second burger came back just as salty and just as dry. 1 star for the nice server. read more

This place needs more reviews! Very small town in MN but the drinks are great and the steak and shrimp are wonderful! The steak was perfectly prepared. I chose the au gratin potatoes at the suggestion of my amazing server Teri and friendly server Tony! Yummy!!! They make all of their own dressings too. read more

Good Walleye fingers, but bar staff were not willing to play the biggest soccer match of the year on just one of their 4 TVs. I recommend going to Railhouse instead! read more

Nice place, but lots of hair. Too many *extras* in my food for my liking. Also, no free refills.

We are in from out of town and there just wasn't many places to choose from. The beer battered chicken tenders were great. The place is nice and clean and the waitress was friendly. It was pricey but everything we had tasted great. Better than I had expected. read more

The environment was comfortable. The meatloaf dinner had two pieces of bread along with meat and potatos. Take away 1 slice of bread and add some vegetables to round out the meal... tast was average. read more

Cheese curds were fantastic, service was pretty decent, prices were reasonable but maybe a touch on the high side, not outlandish though. I ordered a steak which came out decent, proper cook on it, though lacking some in the flavor category. For a side I went with the potatoes au gratin, which had more flavor but only due to the abundance of oil from all the cheese. All-in-all I'd come back and give Port 104 a second chance, if only for the cheese curds! read more

Food was fine. No changing table in the mens room, so I had to change my son multiple times when I just wanted to relax and alternate (as we normally do). Service was great, except she gave me a pencil to sign my receipt instead of a pen. read more

Second time here. The food is middling to very good. The service is a joke. I mean really bad. I mean seriousky BAD. We had a large group (group of 10) the second time. I know that means a whole bunch of issues, but 20 minutes for the first round of drinks? Our salads arrived AFTER the entrees. Soup...that was included with meal...never saw it. Can't tell you if it was any good. Would I come back? Can't say. When you're one of the only restaurants in town I guess you can have terrible service and survive. But if I were asked, I couldn't tell people to eat here without at least warning them of the worst service I have ever had at a restaurant. If I could, I wouldn't give it any stars. One for the food. read more

We ate here recently, and I must say it was really disappointing. I hadn't eaten here since before it was remodeled. I will say that it is very clean, but removing the walls between the dining area and bowling alley was probably not a great idea. Now, regarding the food, our meal was lousy. I ordered meatloaf, thinking how moist and flavorful it would be. It was not. The meatloaf reminded me of the Salisbury steak TV dinners we had when I was a kid. It was dry and tasteless. The corn for some reason was seasoned with oregano -- I have no idea why. The cream of mushroom soup was watery and tasted as if the kitchen simply took some Campbell's soup and added chopped mushrooms to it. The fried cod was acceptable but not very good. The broiled cod was over-cooked, rubbery, and seasoned with oregano -- again, I have no idea why. For a legitimate restaurant, the food was not acceptable. Honestly, it reminded me of food you may get at a school cafeteria. For a small town, the prices were not cheap, and charging for each drink refill does not make their food good down any easier. read more

Actually the one star is because the waitress was at are table as soon as we sat down. However we ordered a appetizer. After waiting 20 to 25 minutes with no food coming we left money on the table for or drinks and left! Not a good experience! read more

Excellent food and service! The burgers were so juicy and delicious! Beat burger I've ever had. My husband had the sirloin steak and loved it, too! Cheese curds were excellent, too! Will definitely be back! read more

went in for a take-out order and was informed it wouldn't take more than 10 minutes. Well 28 minutes later my order came without so much as a "sorry for the wait." The server did ask if I wanted any sauce with the onion rings. When I asked what the options were I received a deer in the headlights look then was given two options that the server didn't seem sure of. read more

Ordered 3 burgers and one large order of cheese curds, it took about an hour the burgers were dry as hell the cheese curds were insanely greasy and it all cost 49.50 I'd recommend the rail house instead. read more

Blatant bar staff, over priced restaurant for the low quality, low quantity food that we received. The chicken strips weren't well cooked, the soup was small, and they don't even have free refills. The only reason I gave this poorly executed restaurant a star is because I'm pretty sure I can't give it a zero. read more

Great service and great appetizers. Great stop when enjoying the river. We enjoyed the new grilled chicken pizza.

Came in for the first time tonight after a round of golf at Frontenac. We usually go to Skyline on Pepin but found out as we tried to walk in thew doors it was closed down. Impressive menu, many different yummy sounding options. I got the hand battered cod dinner, 3 BIG pieces of fish perfectly cooked, and a nice pile of onion rings. In house made tarter sauce was really good. My friend got the walleye dinner, he said it wasn't as good as the walleye at Skyline but it was moist and tasted good. We got an order of cheese curds, and I must say they were probably the best curds I've ever had, perfectly cooked with a ton of flavor in the cheese, and the home made ranch sauce went really well with them. The only complaint, if you can even call it that, was when i got my check they charged me a 5.50 upcharge on the onion rings. On all the burgers and sandwiches they charged an extra 1.50$ for rings, but as soon as I pointed this out to the bartender who was very friendly he took care of it right away. Pretty sure this is the new go to place every time after golfing at Frontenac. Next time I want to try out the 6 lane bowling alley. read more
