Reserved a high top for 4 on Sunday to celebrate my son's 25th b-day. Enjoyed awesome HH specials: 2nd pints for a $1 on all drafts, and cheap apps. Normally HH ends at 5pm, but 3:30p Vikings game kept it going much later. Enjoyed Cajun Steak Bites, State Fair Cheese Curds, Caprese Flatbread, and a killer $10 cheeseburger & fries. Full generous app portions were nice and the discounts were significant. Place was vibrant, with the Vikings game on many large screens throughout. Great attentive service. I highly recommend GN...especially for HH and watching the Vikings through their playoff run.

We hit this place up after doing some Christmas shopping in this neck of the woods. This place is located in a small strip mall. Entering the premise you will see ample seating in the establishment, surrounded by dark paneling and a nice classic bar. We sat at the bar because we thought we could get in and out relatively quickly. There were maybe six patrons at the bar, but service was really slow, so that set the tone for the place. The wife ordered their bloody mary mainly because the bartender was skewering the garnishes, and a big piece of cheese and summer sausage looked really good when we sat down, LOL. I ordered a beer...nothing special. The tap selection is par for the course - standard American lagers with several craft beers. For food, we ordered the Reuben to share, as well as a bowl of ginger carrot soup. The soup was AMAZING! It has a great balance of flavors and is creamy. I will always order this if I come here and it is on the menu. The Reuben was OK. I do want to compliment the server. When they split the plate, we had a full serving of fries for each of us. The food also came out really quick which was a plus. I would give this place three stars because of the service, but the soup was so good that it got another star.

Went here for a birthday lunch for my son. The place was very cozy and not super loud. There were 6 of us on the group and they sat us right away on a Sunday during the Vikings game. The server was super friendly and took our drink orders after we got settled in. She recommended the cheese curds and tater tot things. The appetizers came out quick and she came with the drinks and took our food order. The nice thing was they had some breakfast options and a lot OA lunch choices too. I ordered the Gouda Mac and cheese with bacon and chives. My son got the lobster roll, my wife got a chicken wrap thing, my youngest daughter got the Mac and cheese with bacon also. My oldest daughter and boy friend got build you own burgers. The burgers looked good and so did the lobster roll. Both things came with fries and seasoned sour cream as option. I really did see my wife's chicken wrap. The Mac and cheese was really good and very moist and not too thick. Overall I recommend this place. Didn't try any beers as I got to be the designated driver.

Stopped in around 6:30pm on a gorgeous Saturday evening after a few hours at the Excelsior Art Fair. Enjoyed appetizers on the patio. Our server did a nice job keeping up and checking in with us as he was the only one assigned to the patio. I'd say out of the two appetizers the Buffalo shrimp was my favorite. Perfectly cooked and coated in Buffalo sauce. The cheese curds weren't my favorite- a little bready and not super cheesy. The menu had a variety. If I'm ever in the area again, I'd come back to try something else. Pull-tabs would be a good edition to this restaurant. Overall, good experience.

This is a hidden gem. I was here years ago, and happily passed it while we were looking for something to eat. We sat outside on their private patio - decent space. The quality of food is just as I remember. I shared the cheese curds and buffalo shrimp (served with blue cheese). The shrimp were cooked to perfection. I'm not a blue cheese lover, but I'm branching out more and this sauce was mild and paired well with the shrimp. Would definitely go back when I am hungrier to try other menu items. Cannot go wrong with these two!

This place is trendy and stylish. It has a lot of TVs if you want to watch a game. Parking is super easy because it has a big parking lot in front. My husband is a bourbon guy. He ordered it. They mixed the drink well. It tastes great! I got the paradise, it is very smooth and sweet. I loved it! The pot sticker is amazing!!!! If you order it at happy hour, it's only $10. Their happy hour is either 2:30-5 or 8 to close daily. But the kitchen is closed at 10. We got there a few minutes late, but they still served us. We will definitely come back and try their food. Love this place!

The Golden Nugget is just so consistent!! We caught the end of Happy Hour at 5 PM but got a drink at full price and a second one for $1. Solid The food is full of value. Burgers are above average. The fennel sausage flatbread was extraordinary! Our server was a Pro's Pro! Read our table perfectly! What a fun dining experience!!

What a wonderful hidden gem in Minnetonka! I had been seeing this place all over social media, so when a foodie friend invited me here I said yes right away! I can't comment on pricing since she covered me, but the service was pretty speedy for a busy restaurant - plus the server let us know almost everything here is fresh and made to order! This place has a very warm and woody, neighborhood-tavern vibe. This is definitely a spot I'd want to spend the day watching a game here, or meeting a group for dinner. To Drink: I had a delicious spicy margarita and a nice glass of Chardonnay. The star of the show though is their Chai Martini if you love a rich, sweet, dessert-y beverage. They have a full bar, so you can really get anything here. To Eat: STATE FAIR CHEESE CURDS: A MUST, especially if you're with a group. Nothing out of the ordinary, but they really were the perfect cheese curds. ASADA BOWL: This was the dish I definitely saw myself ordering if I was just getting myself a meal! The steak was cooked perfectly and the whole bowl was packed with flavor. A perfect "burrito bowl". SHRIMP TACOS: Another fantastic dish that I could see myself ordering. These were spicy and refreshing at the same time, I couldn't get enough. GOUDA MAC: If you like rich and creamy pasta, this is a MUST! So smokey and delicious, I couldn't stop taking bites here! PRIME RIB EGG ROLLS: These were very rich and heavy, not my cup of tea but objectively they are flavorful and tasty! AHI TUNA CRISPS: I expected these to be more like tuna nachos, but it's more like marinated pieces of Tuna. Super fresh and yummy! LOBSTER ROLL: Again, this just wasn't my taste, but if you like a cold lobster roll I think you would really enjoy it! BURGER: We tried one of their weekly burgers, it was a funky mix of brie cheese and french onions on the burger and it was tasty!
