We tried the Classic, Bloody Pickle Rickle, Golden Pickle, Pink Fluffy Unicorn, and several other unique flavors -- each one was interesting and delicious in its own way. The service was outstanding -- friendly, attentive, and impressively efficient even with our large group of 11 people. We also ordered a couple of pizzas, and they disappeared almost immediately because they were that good! One of the best surprises was the back area with old-school pinball machines and a claw machine, which was a huge hit with the kids in our group. We even got lucky and won a few prizes! The whole atmosphere was fun, welcoming, and full of energy. It's easy to see why Half Brothers is such a beloved local hangout spot!

Here I am close to the Canadien border and there is one legitimate brewery close to town. Beer was good and food a bit underwhelming. Had the WC and Hazy IPAs. Both were good with the Hazy outshining the WC. They have a pickle beer which a lot of the locals kept ordering. I didn't try it but it's probably worth a sample. Really only pizza for sustainable food with a for appetizers to go with it. Special for the day was a slice, which was generous, and a beer for $10. The pizza was ok, crust a little doughy for my liking, need to make a decision if it's NY or not. Great stop when in ND, especially if you like craft beer. They had some guest taps as well as their own. If looking for food ok choice, but probably better in town.

I got their Bacon Avocado Burger w/seasoned fries. Everything came out quick (felt like 5 minutes). The burger had about half an avocado sliced thin on top, with a couple pieces of bacon, lettuce and tomato. I tried to order my burger medium rare, and was informed that they're working with frozen patties... So, it's either done, or frozen LOL. The burger came out medium though and tasted great. The place is really big. There is a small casino in the front (a few slot machines, poker/craps/blackjack tables, etc. my eyes were drawn to the bar, it's almost the entire length of the place. They have a bunch of flat screens showing sports and a bunch of tables if you don't want to sit at the bar. 5 out of 5 for the amount of beer on tap, a quick kitchen, and a delicious burger.

The Bacon Cheeseburger was solid--thick-cut bacon, juicy patty, exactly what you want when you're craving a classic. The sweet potato fries were on point, and the queso fries were dangerously good. One of our favorites of the night was the Firecracker Shrimp--mildly spicy, super flavorful, and honestly way better than we expected from bar food. The whole place has a chill, fun atmosphere, the kind of bar you settle into without even trying. The table next to us ordered wings and they looked incredible... so yes, we're already planning our return trip just for those. Shoutout to Jacob, who closed us out and made sure everything was exactly to our liking. Great service on top of great food = winning combo. Can't wait to go back!

Ordered walleye with potatoes au gratin and both were cooked well and tasted great! However, the problem with this place is that it hasn't been consistent. I've ordered the same thing and it was awful. Our most recent visit, we ordered shrimp scampi, potatoes au gratin, and Mac and cheese. The shrimp were sitting in a dish of butter with minced garlic on top of the shrimp.... not cooked in the butter, just laying on the shrimp. The shrimp couldn't be cut with a fork they were so tough. They tasted microwaved. The potatoes I asked to be well done, burnt even. They came out with the cheese not browned and potatoes underneath were cold... not even hot. I politely told our waitress and explained i didn't want to complain. She was amazing and really tried to make it right. She brought us cheesecake that was the best thing I've had there. I really want to give this place another shot, but it's been so inconsistent which is incredibly disappointing.

The Brussels sprouts didn't taste bitter at all with the vinaigrette. I would do without the bleu cheese though and keep the bacon. The walleye was a bit dry, but I guess it is because it was broiled. Next time, I will ask for it pan fried without the breading. The smashed potatoes tasted really good, though I would not have the Parmesan cheese on it to cut the saltiness. The prime rib was cooked perfectly. Loved how the creamy horseradish tasted, and the au jus was not salty at all. Appetizers were the calamari and wedge salad. Wow! I couldn't stop eating the salad because I wanted to save room for the main entree. However, I ended up eating all of it. The calamari was also great with the aioli sauce. The creme brûlée tasted amazing

The truffle Mac and cheese and the mushrooms were good, enough to Share. I really liked the amaretto crème brûlée. Our server was not so pleasant towards my husband when he questioned how the calamari was prepared. For the most part we had a great evening and will be back. The ambiance was nice great for an anniversary or date. I recommend it!
