Not impressed. No one greeted us, or came to our table in the bar area. We moved to the bar and it wasn't much better. Two people on and no greeting. We ordered drinks, asked for water 3 times and asked to order an app because we were running short on time at this point. Bartender barely smiled, or gave us the time of day. No need to return.

There were fruit flies everywhere. The carpet was dirty where we sat. There were only 2 waiters in the restaurant when we got there and there should have been more since there was a tour bus of people dining there. The food was bland. I had to ask for my check 3 times over the course of 30 min so we wouldn’t be late for a show. Several people around us were complaining about their food, and the time it took for service and getting their bill.

We were able to get a good meal and great cocktail in plenty of time to see a show at the Excel Center in St. Paul. Super convenient location. I would definitely dine there again.

Great food and service. I let them know we were a little tight for time because we needed to get to a show at the Ordway, and they were very accommodating. Our server was friendly and attentive. We’ll be going there again. Yummy cheese curds, grilled chicken sandwiches, burger and tacos. Also, a full bar.
