    This place is probably my favorite restaurant in the cities, I'm there a lot and pretty much everywhere on their menu is incredible, from the crispy buffalo wings, to the tacos, to my most recent obsessions, which are the Italian sub, the cod sando, and their steak night on Wednesdays! What an incredible value! A neighborhood staple, always busy, great service, they deliver to my home, and they're always there so me. Love you guys!

    Sunday Funday ended on Skinner's Patio and it was a great choice! The pizza was really good. The thin crust held up to the ingredients, ample cheese and toppings, tasty sausage and the sauce was saucing. Wings were fried perfectly and the Jojos were both inexpensive and perfectly crunchy but soft in the middle. Service was friendly and efficient. Drinks were good too.

    A Saint Paul staple. Easy, simple, fair prices, great service and delicious food. Known for the pizza and burgers, I recently learned the red pizza sauce is the same recipe as former Old World Pizza (a 50-year old shop if you know you know). Ambiance is your typical dive bar: dim lights, dated decor and super chill. Come in your sweat pants and crocs type of energy. The BBQ pizza was solid as well as the taco salad. Shout out to Sarah K. who serves on Friday's. She's the best! Ask for her.

    PBR on tap!! Shuttles to games and concerts!! Great staff!! We stopped before a concert. First time here. Very busy. Dive bar atmosphere. Nice menu. I had a BLT that was very good. The jojos were ok. My wife had the Philly and loved it! Another st our table had the club sandwich which was good. My daughter had the taco special, one chicken, one beef. Very particular diner and she liked them both very much. Great server, very busy but communicated well and were well taken care of. Need to go back for pizza. Hand made crusts visible in kitchen from our table. I love these places.

    I heard good things about skinners from a few people, and went for the first time last weekend. I tried the Italian fries and wings - 1/2 Cajun and 1/2 BBQ. The Cajun wings were pretty good, but not a lot of meat on those suckers. The Italian fries were great. I appreciated the amount of cheese they use. Our service/server was awful. She had a bad attitude and never refilled drinks unless asked. I love myself a dive bar, but in my opinion, I'd rather go to a place that serves a smile and friendly service over what we got.

    Do you member the old fashioned JoJo potatoes? Well they have them here!!! Delicious burgers, fresh made pizza factory pizzas, fried chicken, daily soups too! Sunday was half price wings which were cooked perfectly and plenty of sauce. Busy little corner bar with great service and prices. Bar area and dining room. Best of both worlds.

The people were a huge part of what made Emmett's feel welcoming, creative, and special, especially with the innovative cocktails. It's also disappointing to see what feels like a lack of appreciation for the staff and the longtime, dedicated customers who helped build this establishment into what it was. Unfortunately, the new direction feels much more canned and unoriginal--more like a Irish version of Applebee's or Outback Steakhouse than the unique place it used to be. There are simply too many great places to choose from to settle for something mundane and uninspired. The new GM has also made longtime customers feel unwelcome, with no acknowledgment or warmth when walking through the space. The atmosphere just isn't the warm, inviting place I once enjoyed. Sadly, I guess it's time to find a new favorite.

    Oh man. Where to begin... I've been going to tappers since 2010, before I was even 21. It was the…read morespot for the neighborhood usuals and it was a great atmosphere. But as the new owners have taken over, things shifted. Generally it was fine but in the last couple months things have gone downhill. The last straw was when I went in for a single drink with a friend, early in the evening and when we got our tabs, we filled out our receipts and left our tips and went on with our evening. The next morning, I was called by my bank about a suspicious tip amount that I had recently left (aka the evening before). These cheapskate cheaters and thieves working at the bar had changed my tip amount egregiously. On one single pint, I think I paid $7/$8? And my tip amount was over $30 making my one beer almost $40. If that is what tappers has become, it is no longer that quaint and unique neighborhood dive bar that Chris and Steve had bought back in the early 2010s. The icing on the top was that one of the owners was actually our bar tender that evening. Slimey and shady and when we called to inquire, we were hung up on. Let this place go back to the dogs. At least the drunks and townies that used to call Tappers their neighborhood pub weren't stiffing the customers.

    Moved here a couple months ago and we are really loving Lucky 13 Mendota. Great food and drinks…read more Never a bad meal! The weekend breakfast, bloodies and bartenders are awesome as we've been working our way thru the breakfast menu every Saturday at the bar. They just changed the menu so there are some new exciting things to try like the breakfast Monte Cristo but sad to see one of my favorites the Reuben Benedict is now gone. Was sooo good. My other recommendations are the Cajun hash and the corned beef hash and the blackened walleye Benedict along with the Monte Cristo. Often we sit at the bar which is really nice but you can't go wrong sitting outside especially in the evening where it seems a little extra special, especially if you're out there with a few friends like we did a couple times already. Some of our friends that lived out west a bit came out here to visit us so we had to bring them to lucky 13 and they really enjoyed it. They said what a great place and what a wonderful outdoor patio area here they have. The food is great too. And always had great service. I think we've been here about 8 times since we've moved here and at times with other friends and family and there's a lot of other places we haven't tried yet but when you find something great you kinda don't want to risk going elsewhere. Keep up the great work Lucky's and the popcorn too

When I checked back in it turned out he was a bar back who couldn't pour drinks but he asked me for my order!

The vibes were also off be square we inadvertently went there during Thur night bingo and it was super crowded and just not a fun scene. I hope to not come back here.
