    Fries were so salty that they were inedible
    M N.

    The fries were salted to the point they were inedible. They seemed to have been double fried and tasted burnt. We also requested some dipping sauces on the side which were forgotten in our to-go order. Also no napkins, which would have been nice due to the items being (expectedly) greasy. I ordered the turkey club which had good bread and fresh lettuce and tomatoes. I might go again in the future but I wouldn't order any fried items because they were so bad we couldn't eat them.

    You know what this is!

    Hey! I run my eye across the mercury and Ooooh, boy the Land O' Lakes is livin' down to its goose-bumpin' hyperboreals. Get the gloves on! Naw naw, you can't just hermit it up the entire time the leaves are off the trees, c'mon! I gotta place for you all to visit. I kinda gotta refer to it as a hidden secret, cuz in the laws of location, location, location, this little grub garage ain't exactly in the prime real estate. Half the place is blocked by a bridge and the other half is blocked by everything that ain't a bridge. So, you gotta dial in the perception to catch this place, especially since it has neighbors with more visible joints. But I gotta tell you, and you know I'll tell it straight that if you ain't ever seen this place or you keep forgettin' it's an option, it's worth punchin' the address into the ol' robot map. Lemme drop the mail stop right here: 1710 Center Ave E #138, Dilworth, MN. Now, I didn't come to ramble about a revolutionary new idea that some enterprisin' folk dreamed about after a solid pop fly to the nugget. Naw. This path is many traveled and well worn. Red Hen Taphouse is on the western outskirts of Dilworth on Hwy 10. There's a lot of stuff on Hwy 10, but if you don't wanna go all interstate, you can rely on Red Hen to do a solid job for you if you live east of the Red River. By my own admission, I belong to the "keep forgettin'" camp. Man, this place has weak visibility. But, if you got enough tire tread to navigate the frotage roads to get back there, I think you'll find a place itchin' to serve up some hot grub and cold drinks. I got me my teetotaller tea and Red Hen's mushroom and Swiss. My sidekick run up a tab on a tall glass and the Cajun chicken ranch hoagie. Both of these courses gave us a decent portion without bustin' up our gold reserves. But, I gotta be straight about a condition the ol' Hen is sufferin'. The kitchen doesn't know anything about seasoning up the ol' victuals. Now, for those fair-haired Europeans who live in the area and think a glass of ice water is too spicy, Red Hen might be a draw. But this ol' Slavic got expectations built right into my buds. I'm not gonna punch down over a little salt and pepper, but if y'all in the Red Hen kitchen skim over this unnecessarily overloaded dumpster of idioms, I'll break the important part off on its own right here: Learn to use salt and pepper. White granules is salt. Black granules is pepper. Use butter where you ain't usin' butter, and you are going to start slingin' some Michelin Star regalement. I got it locked down, so don't blink! The rest of you folks, give the ol' Hen a chance. We were given great service on our visit, and those ladies would sure like to keep the heat on while the sun is bouncin' off the ice sheet. Listen, it don't do anyone any good to have to struggle unnecessarily. If you gotta joint on the weekend that's gonna form a line, there's probably a seat at Red Hen waiting for a little cozy work. The tab don't getcha Presidents in a headlock, so peel off a couple extra notes and keep the Hen a-cluckin. Keep warm and keep bein' awesome!

    Huge nachos!

    The Red Hen is tucked away along Hwy 10 on the border of Moorhead and Dilworth, in a strip mall. This is a nice addition for this area that currently does not have a ton of bar options in the vicinity. There is nothing fancy about the establishment and you kind of feel like you are in a strip mall bar, but that's not really a bad thing. It reminded me a little of a small town bar but not being old or divey. I'm a nachos guy, and after hearing about their nachos, I had to just try that as my meal. It is shocking how large the nachos are. They are prepared on a pizza pan that is probably at least a foot in diameter and the nachos stack up about 4-5 inches high. I knew I couldn't eat the whole thing myself but for as full as I was when I left, you could barely see a dent in the nachos. So if the $11.95 plus $2 more for a meat topping looks like a pricier appetizer here, keep in mind this will feed an army. Sandwiches come with chips but you can upgrade to waffle fries, onion rings or a salad for $1.50-$2. My wife opted for the waffle fries and you get plenty of those. Looking at other food coming out, I noticed many people getting the flatbreads that looked good. After seeing what I believe was the walleye sandwich, I think that is what I need to try next time. Also, they have a very good tap beer selection, probably about a dozen or more. Many of them are regional as well.

    The strip mall, in the Gateway Crossing area, where the Red Hen Taphouse is located.

    Hubby and I were in Fargo unexpectedly when sister-in-love's cancer surgery turned out to be more…read moreinvasive than originally expected and she wound up in the ICU. When things had finally stabilized we decided to take ourselves out and landed at Lucky 13's. This is my kinda joint. Pub atmosphere, perfect (free) popcorn, fantastic retro tuneage, and speedy, efficient service are a given. The food is next level nom nom. They're one of the few restaurants out there that does a Monte Cristo sammich and when it's paired with their custom L13 Tots? Epicurean delights abound. The only reason I'm giving the experience 4 stars (rather than 5) is because their checkout process is entirely too old school. And the pen I was given to sign the receipt had little-to-no ink left in it. I know. Seems petty. But when it takes so long to do the whole card-bill-process-return dance that asking for a better writing utensil seems like a huge effort? Yup.

    I'm a MN native visiting ND and had no idea Lucky's branched out into the Fargo- Moorhead area. As…read morea frequent customer in MN, finding Lucky's in ND felt like home. We were seated promptly and got our complimentary popcorn per usual. I ordered the taco salad bowl with chicken and my husband had a burger. Our server was delightful. The space was clean and mirrored all the other Lucky's establishments. In MN, we have a live station with typically a volunteer running pull tabs. To our surprise, it was a pull tab machine here. Even more lucky, I pulled a $600 winner and we also got a few $5 ones bringing our jackpot to $610!!! What a lovely day and experience. Thank you!!

    Such a tough spot to rate because the service was horrendous, yet the food quality and selections…read morewere outstanding. I dined in with a group of 12 on a Monday evening and had a super young server who was very gentle and kind, yet not equipped to handle a table this large. Not only was our server not ready to host, I don't think one employee in the building was. Everyone seemed to ignore our big table and we had to serve ourselves for a majority of our stay. To start, we all went around the table and ordered drinks. The server didn't know many of the beers and couldn't find a mojito on her tablet. She later came back and told the group there was no mint to make a mojito with which should have made her life easier because almost every person got a beer. It took about 25 minutes anytime a beer was ordered and was almost a guarantee that it would get delivered to the wrong person at our table. At one point, we started a game of swapping drinks or just accepting beers that were brought to us in error. When I say this was a total disaster, it was. It was embarrassing for this establishment to say the least and I really hope management looks into it. When it came time to order appetizers, we ordered a variety and that seemed to go over smoothly. The cheese curds and pickle fries were my favorites. The only issue was that utensils, plates and napkins were not delivered until 30 minutes post app delivery forcing our group to share the appetizer plates and me to go up to the bar and grab napkins for everyone. The food order went decent as well. The quality of the food was outstanding. Many people ordered burgers in my group, a couple of wraps and I opted for the mama's Mac. I loved my meal. Personally, I didn't have hair in my food, but 2 others did. Sadly, the service needs extreme work and perhaps chef's hair nets can also be implemented. Bummer!!

    Great food and atmosphere, just walking distance from NDSU campus? Sign me up!…read more This place has a relaxed feel with light walls and dark heavy tables/chachairs, and booths surrounding and awesome (fully stocked) bar. There's also plenty of TV so you'll never miss your favorite team play. Staff was very friendly and attentive. I ordered The Union Burger which came with fries. Everything came out hot, fresh, and delicious. I'll definitely be stopping by the next time I'm in Fargo!
