    I saw this place on the local news. Known for their burgers and fish fry on Friday, right up my alley! It had been on my radar and when we 'staycayed' in Duluth, I was looking forward to checking it out. It is at the top of Duluth, far from all things touristy. This is a place where the locals go! When we arrived I noticed the old beer endorsing sign and the restaurant looks like it was converted from a house. We nabbed a table right away. I'm glad we got there when we did because this small restaurant started to fill up and there was a wait not long after we arrived. I knew right away that I wanted the fish fry and my kids ordered burgers. They had a good local beer selection, too. Everyone walked away with a clean plate. It was a good experience and I felt like we discovered a gem. It was far from Grandma's and that was a good thing. When I'm traveling I love finding local joints.

    I feel bad rating this place. To start off it is super clean and nicely decorated. We loved it walking in. Staff was super pleasant and helpful. Menu was great! We ordered onion rings for an app, I ordered the burger with Boursin cheese on it and husband ordered the fried cod. It took awhile but our burger and fish came out. I was confused as to why the onion rings didn't come out and the waitress said the staff forgot to make them. I asked if we could just cancel them as we already had our main meal. She said they were already being made so we couldn't. That is fine, but then comp them. It isn't our fault your staff didn't make them. Burger wasn't really impressive at all. I opened it and they forgot the cheese. I gave up and just seasoned it with salt and pepper as it seemed really really bland. Again, the waitress apologized for the kitchen staff. Husbands fish was kinda funny. We shop Costco and often get the beer battered cod in the freezer section.....that is exactly what came out! I cracked up. It's a little place, of course they are going to buy it frozen..but it was still funny. He tried to act like he wasn't disappointed, but you could totally tell he was. Would I recommend this place given our visit? No. Other people seem to really love it, so maybe we just hit it on a bad Saturday. Who knows. My rating is for my visit of course.

    Discovered this establishment on a Man vs Food episode so had to try while I was in town. The bar/restaurant is bright and clean. The bartender recommended a couple items and we were very impressed. I had the mushroom Swiss juicy Lucy with fries and my partner had the catfish filets. The juicy lucy was so amazing!!! I will definitely be back!!!!

    Same expensive burger as most places in town. Nothing fancy or memorable. Just not worth the price for a mediocre burger

Everything looked super cute but there were coloring and crayon scribbles on everything. It was on the books, the tables the displays etc. I asked a local friend and they said this is normal. When the waitress went to take our drink orders she was ok slightly rude. We looked at our friend and he said they aren't known for their service and can be a little rude. I asked if it's like Dicks Last Resort and he laughed and said no. I think she was okay after that and was like a standard waitress at more restaurants after . I would just say dont expect bending over backwards to make the customer number 1 service . I'm okay with that. They have some very interesting and yummy selections for burgers . I got excited for a blue cheese Burger. I will say that my Pattie was very well done and the bun was on point. The blue cheese dressing top.... Not what I want for a blue cheese burger . I was expecting the blue cheese crumble. The fries... bomb! Definitely get fries. Do I want to go back? Maybe if can sit outside on a nice day. Sort of got the ick sitting inside but it's because I'm not a dive bar kind of girl.

It was a bit chilly today, but those pickled jalapenos really helped. The seating was nice. It's great it was dog friendly, but I would recommend going on a warmer day, Iif you're bringing your furry friends. We had the bbq burger(added jalapenos) w/onion rings and poutine. I usually end up not liking the poutine at places, but will try it. Here, I actually really liked it, and will definitely get it again. The same for the onion rings, they were crispy and not too greasy. We also got the inhouse made root beer. That was quite good as well.

Located right on the bike path…read moreon Lake Superior this place offers a bit of nostalgia, scenic views, shopping, and eating and drinking. I can wax poetic about wandering around the building but, that can be for another time. The brewhouse is a cool place to hang after you've become weary of hitting all the shops on Canal street. Nestled in the old brewery you will experience first and foremost some solid beers (take some crowlers home with you), and some decent food. I think we at lunch here three times? I think one kind of gets tricked into eating here. One starts with a couple beers, then an appetizer, and the next thing you know, you're onto an entree without giving it a second thought. Honestly, I don't think I had anything or tasted anything that was bad. My favorites here are: 1. Poutine: fries, cheese curds, bacon and gravy? that is always a winner. 2. Elote Dip is super good. I'd fight somebody for the last scoop of the dip. 3. the Pretzels are good. Love the cheese sauce....I would ask for mustard too, but that is just me. 4. Pimento Cheeseburger is a favorite like the little bit of kick it offers with the Jalapenos, and it was made medium rare for me to boot I did try a bit of the Wild Rice burger. It was OK, non-meat options are not my gig for a burger. the person who ordered this, truly enjoyed it. I also want to mention the their beer is fresh, well-made, and there is usually a taproom only beer available. I have missed it the last few years but, they had a barleywine that was outstanding. I hope that comes back. If you're in Duluth it is totally worth the stop. Eat some food, drink some beers, buy some merch and support this local treasure.

The Details: For those of you who know me, you know I take a Bar B Que review seriously. So here goes! The Service was outstanding! Admittedly, people are nice in Duluth, but Sarah F went above and beyond. We should have been a terrible table for her... two dudes, a little girl, and a dog. However, she was gracious and patient, right from the start. When we treated her well and started talking BBQ, she brought out the team. Thank you to the front manager Sam who chatted us up. A special thank you to pitmaster Josh and Sean who rolled up their sleeves and talked Turkey.... Literally!!! The ambiance is perfect! Shaded outdoor space during the day was a huge plus! It was perfect! On to the food.... This is a traditional Southern Pride propane/wood smoked BBQ. I am personally not a fan of these smokers, but OMC did well. I found the St louis ribs to be the best cook of them all, with perfect tenderness. The brisket has solid seasoning with plenty pepper. The poblano corn was a fun side! Overall, a great little find in Duluth.

We were swayed to try this place due to other Yelp reviews and are so thankful we did! We started with an appetizer of fries. These were SO good! Perfect combination of crisp and soft and served with tasty sauces to dip in. The main courses were wonderful. I had the chicken burrito bowl which was a flavor explosion of fabulousness! Huge portions with plenty to take home. My husband had the burger and raved about the flavor combination. He would have liked the ability to choose how he wanted it prepared as he prefers more of a medium rather than done burger. My daughter and cousin both got sandwiches and enjoyed them completely. The side items at our table also got raving reviews including the cream corn, the grits, and the fritters. Nothing was sub par! My granddaughter did not like her Mac and cheese as it was made from scratch and not a box and the flavors were a little more adult than she is. :). The only negatives we had were minor. Kids receive a menu with a coloring page but no crayons. Hard to occupy them with just a picture. The second is the inability to have your burger done to your taste. The last was the server was not very attentive. We had to ask for drink refills and she promptly forgot to fill them. Didn't check in enough to see if we were ok. However, the person who brought out the food was super good and helped increase the service rating. Overall, because of the quality of the food we would recommend and return ourselves. They have a wonderful patio for outdoor dining and we would love to try that in the future. Even though we were there during the lunch rush, it was not too loud to hold conversation and it felt very homey! Perfect summer evening venue!
