“ Great food and good happy hour. Plus their cheese curds are probably the best in the city. Try them with honey or Agave syrup. Seriously. Sounds weird but it they are magic together. ”

“ I ordered the All American dog but I can't say I was too impressed by this. I WILL Say that the fries (double fried) are SO great. I ordered what was essentially a poutine - with foie gravy and cheese curds and lamb. The price was steep ($12.50) but the basket was huge, unfinishable, and SOOO good. Wasn't in a great mood before eating and this put me in a much happier mood. ”

“ Great brat, done just the way I asked, and the spiciest ginger beer I've ever tried. Great menu, stellar service, and so friendly! We were here on a quiet night but I expect we'll make plenty of return trips. ”

- Dana Karkula -

“ There's a good reason this place was recently featured on Diners, Drive ins and Dives. Very tasty food with unique ingredients that you wouldn't normally expect to be so delicious. The staff is friendly and accommodating. It's a warm and vibrant atmosphere. A decent selection of beer for a smaller joint too. Try to grab a Skol Dog at US Bank field to supplement your experience. ”

“ The wings!! In my whole life I've never had such wings. We kept ordering a thing at a time, so we were having to wait awhile each time, the wings took 20-30 minutes, and it was SO WORTH IT. The dogs were good, the sausage sampler was adorable and I would slap my mother to taste that again. We then finished the meal off with I want to say blueberry lavender shakes, and it's ruined me for any other milkshakes. This place needs to be on the map for best places to eat in Minneapolis if it isn't already. I couldn't shut up about it afterwards. We tried to go back the next day but they were closed. (That was a Tuesday.) If you love sausage or hot dogs, or wings, you simply have to eat here. ”

“ I've been here a few times for the very solid happy hour (also available late), but tonight I had what was probably the best hot dog I've ever eaten in the All-American (crispy pork belly, morning potatoes, sunny egg, sriracha aioli and cilantro). Their beer list is also quite impressive for a relatively small restaurant. Don't let this gem fall victim to the same fate as prior failed restaurants in this high-turnover location and bring your friends here for an awesome meal! ”

“ Best hot dogs and sausages I've ever had. The reuben dog is amazing. ”

- Drew Anderson -

“ My friend and I saw this Restaurant while driving down Lake street, and decided to give it a try. My friend and I ordered 3 dogs (THE ALL-AMERICAN, PLINY THE ELDER and the REU-BUN) and the DOUBLE FRIED FRIES with PRAIRIE SAUCE. Everything was outstanding. We got 3 dogs we figured would be good, but they turned out GREAT! The Fries ROCKED, we loved the Prairie Sauce too, just WOW. Prairie Dogs also had a very good Wine and Beer selection that we really enjoyed. Would return, and have told many people about this place already. ”
