Burger Joint · Fulton · 106 tips and reviews
Patrick Hodgdon: You are a fool if you don't order the cheese curds. Lightly battered but perfectly crispy, with an extra gooey center and served with a sweet triple berry ketchup. Even better than at the State Fair!
Dan Upton: Beer selection is prime (I recommend the Paulaner Hefeweizen). Cheese curds are the bomb as well!
City Pages: The bison burger is well seasoned & served with creamy goat cheese & fig slivers. The veggie burger: a spicy, curry-seasoned patty that's crispy on the outside and creamy and tender on the inside.

Tina Floersch: A Minneapolis classic! You have to go here at least once in your life! The food is great and the malts are even better! So many different flavor a and combinations, you'll never run out of combos.
Marky McFly: Split a malt if you're feeling calorie conscious.
Bloomingdale's: Greasy-good burgers, topped with bacon and fried onions, or avocado and pepper-jack cheese, if you want to get fancy. Malts in something like 30 flavors. Need we say more?

Steakhouse · Downtown West · 37 tips and reviews
David Wallace: The ribeye is amazing! The Späzle 'Mac-n-Cheese' is just phenomenal, but you've got to have 3-4 people to share it as a side. The crunchy garlic toast alone is reason to go to Murray's. Don't miss it!
Gordon Overing: They have the best thin garlic toast that comes before the meal. It melts in your mouth.
Val Pouti: Every week, Monday through Friday they have a three course early dinner special from 4:30-6:00pm for $19.95. Seriously the best deal ever!

Haeyoon Chang: You brilliant masters of potatoes. Roasted red pepper mashed, crispy medallions lightly seasoned, crispy sweet potato dipped in red pepper sour cream, everything potato is the best you will ever taste
Esquire: Congratulations, you've found one of Esquire's Best Bars in America. As Biggie rapped, "Super Nintendo, Sega Genesis." Play 'em both and wash it down with a Chatterbox lager. Read more.
Drew Martin: Just like hanging out at a buddies house, but the beer and food is better. The Chatterbox Lager is dark, but smooth like an amber. Delicious
