★★★☆☆ 3.0 Ruby V. · Dec 2025

It’s a homey divey little spot with affordable, good food. The burger was awesome - juicy cheesy and a soft bun. I got a Chicago dog and the Hot Lydia. The Chicago dog was good but the tomatoes were not so fresh. The link in the hot Lydia was very salty but not too spicy. The cheese curds were kinda burned but they still served them to us. The fryer oil was way too hot, you could hear it each time the cook dropped something, a ferociously loud crackle and pop. Turn that heat down and cook the frozen fries cheese curds etc a little less hard. The chocolate malt was delicious. Nothing super special here overall, but I can see how it’s a fave because you can’t really get Chicago dogs elsewhere in the area.

This place is what you call a hidden gem. Came to Minneapolis on business, an old friend recommended this tiny restaurant. I don't think much has changed there since the 60s. It's great. Burgers, dogs, Italian sausages.... All delicious. I'm not talking about diner food here. It's more like a high-end delicatessen. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, with worn and vintage feel. I suppose in decades gone by that most towns had a great little place like this, but today these types of experiences are few. If you enjoy having a meal at a place with good people and lots of character.... Enjoy.

Awesome cheese curds. House made marinara. Authentic Philly, wit whiz. Best Chicago dog this far north. Name one other place where you can get fresh marinara to order cooked right in front of you! Great customer service!
