Casper's

I have been looking for a new onion ring place since Burger Jones closed during covid. (RIP!) Casper's is a worthy replacement! Crunchy, flavorful, and as big as the appetizer plates they are served on. I will go back for the onion rings alone. My party of 3 each had the same entree for dinner, so I can't speak to the variety on the menu, but the Firehouse burger and fries were good all around. The BBQ sauce has a bold flavor and the burgers were well cooked to preference. I am a stickler for good service, and I was admittedly wary walking in. It was on the late side, it was pleasantly busy (for a Monday night), and it seemed to be 2 bartenders keeping the whole place going. But we got drinks and refills (unasked for!) quickly; our food arrived quickly, and I didn't have a single complaint! I've driven past this place countless times, and am really glad we finally stopped in!

One of the best dining experiences I've ever had, our server, Teresa, sorry if that's misspelled, was absolutely amazing. Very friendly and warm. I had the bone in rib eye which I recommend highly. Cooked to perfection and absolutely amazing. Overall just a wonderful dining experience. Can't wait to come back!

Very friendly place, although it was my first visit, I loved how our server was very humble, very quick to bring our drinks and would say very honest when I inquired about their cocktails that she honestly tells me , she doesn't know much about cocktails. I like it when server give me their honest opinion. My family liked all you can it shrimp and walleye. I am not big fan of sea food, so I ordered chipotle chicken sandwich which I didn't like it very much, it was bland and dry. I couldn't taste my chipotle sauce. Lastly, I enjoyed their 🍹.

This is definitely a one and done place for me. We had a kind server who did a great job keeping our drinks refilled. However, that’s where the good things ended. Almost as soon as my family and I entered the restaurant, we were hit in the face with the smell of cigarette smoke. It was very clear that someone was smoking in their private party room, which we were seated by, as the smell got progressively stronger throughout our meal to the point that my sinuses burned and I had a massive headache. The food is mediocre at best. Everything we had was bland… it’s similar to what you’d expect from Perkins or someplace similar. Our steaks and burger didn’t seem to have any type of seasoning on them. The women’s restroom was freezing cold to the point that my toddler’s teeth were chattering and she refused to use it. It was also rundown and dirty, which matched the theme of the rest of the restaurant…. The blinds on the windows by our table were covered in a thick layer of dust. For similar bland food, I’d recommend hitting up the Perkins up the road. But, really, I’d just skip it all together.

Previously I used to go to the Cherokee Sirloin Room on Smith Ave. I was never disappointed in that place. Not one time in many times there. (I lived in other parts of the country and used to go there while visiting family here) The Steak of the Decade, which became the Steak of the Millennium was one one of the best steaks anywhere in the US. Once that location closed and they completely moved to Eagan, I was still impressed by the service and the quality of the food. I probably went to this location 3 or 4 times before the pandemic. Unfortunately, I went there a couple of months ago and the place seemed a bit less cared for than in the past. The food was still very good. The service was also not bad. Unfortunately the tables seemed a bit sticky and dirty. The whole place just seemed a bit off from where it was before the pandemic. I am assuming the pandemic is the cause of this, so I will certainly go back again. After all, I had been going to one location or the other close to once a year since 1984 or so. Now that I have moved back here after retiring I am really hoping in my heart that they will be back to their high quality and cleanliness that I always expected and was never disappointed in previous years.

Excellent food and service was amazing. Salad was very good and very fresh. Nice combination of vegetables and very good dressing. Walleye was very good and the fillet was very large. Steak was done perfectly and delicious. Food was served quickly and waitress was very attentive. Excellent meal all around, will be back.

Friday Fish fry was one of the best we've been to in a while. There is all you can eat shrimp scampi and walleye fingers or just the walleye 4 piece. It comes with choice of potato and a nice side salad, bread and butter. The atmosphere was great, service awesome, and we got in no problem with reservations. We will be back!

Every time I've been there food was great. And I'm a picky person. I have not tried the whole menu but I do recommend the steak or burgers. I prefer them on the grill or smoker. However it still was good and cooked to my desire medium rare steak and medium burger. Service is always excellent for me. I do wear a big cowboy hat so I'm kind hard to miss though lol. Atmosphere is awesome on Friday night they have the best karaoke guy I have seen and he has almost any song you could think of. All in all a great place for food dine in take out or delivery through door dash. I could not recommend this place more.
