“ Absolutely worth the 1 1/2 drive to get there and the 1 hour wait to get inside. Without any doubt! Just do it!!! We questioned ourselves on the way down, but after that first bite, it was.... oh... ya... this is sooooo gooooddddd. Piping hot, and amazing! The best steak I have ever had. I am not a bid steak eater, and I do eat my steaks more done then I should, but , with that said, it was still so tender, covered in a beautiful combination of a beefy broth with butter and the wild rice was spot on! We had the onion rings and battered onion rings for apps, they were very good and crunchy. The rest of the table got salads, I got the chili. It was good, not great. Very tasty, very tomato-y, hamburger in small pieces and I ate it all. LOL My husband got the New York Strip, it was fabulous, and the king of the table was the queen cut prime rib! Holy cow, literally! It is a must eat. But to be honest, you can not go wrong with anything they have. My friend got the german patty melt, oh my, I am getting that next time. It had an inch of sauerkraut on top of the burger topped with mustard instead of thousand island. Her husband got the beef tips and he said they were good as well. Drinks come in Large Coke glasses just like a beer, thank you for that, I think its so the poor girls don't have to keep coming back. Boy do they hustle! All food is piping hot, and I mean hot! The fried onions I got with my steak were a definite get again, the mushrooms, I will probably pass on. Not that they were not good, they were, I just thought they would would of been seared like the onions, there were more sauteed/simmered in butter, with no sear. Good, but I couldn't eat what I had anyway, so less is better! It was cool so we sat in the car. But next time, we are going when its warm, going to go early and enjoy the weather, good conversation with old friends and friends we are yet to meet while we wait to eat the best darn food in Minnesota! Cheers! And great job Bergen! Very reasonably priced. 5 of us, apps, food, and drinks! OH BRING CASH, no CHARGE CARDS! ”
“ Like mom said sometimes you have to wait for good things. Small place limited seating but what a unbelievable place. Great food ”
“ The food was excellent. The service was great. Large portions of food at a reasonable price. ”
“ The shrimp are amazing! Steak tasted great but was a little fatty. Food portions are definitely worth the cost. Every thing tasted delicious. There is usually a wait time from my understanding, but we decided to eat outside and we got a table right away. Will be back again! ”
“ Went for lunch. Different menu than supper. Great food! Guessing supper is going to be on the higher side but still worth it. Arrive early if you don't want to wait, but atmosphere in the past has always been great. ”
“ Small house turned into a great steakhouse in the middle of corn fields. They do not take reservations cash only. That said they make some of the best steaks you will have. ”
“ This is the best restaurant experience I have ever had. It's a little out of the way, but they have the most wonderful melt in your mouth steak and the wait staff are awesome. Be prepared to wait in line starting around 4:30 for the opening at 5:00 and you'll have to pay with cash or check because they do not accept cards or electronic payment. ”
“ Always such a fun place to go. Food is great and the service is awesome. ”
