We were doing the sculpture walk when we happened upon Lucky Dogs. Two things that stood out about the place is that my wife could eat as they have gluten-free buns for most of their offerings and that they use Nathan's hot dogs. They have the tables outside to provide the Jersey Boardwalk feel .

We were in Walker on a gloomy Monday and decided to take a drive up to Bemidji for lunch. Since it was my husband birthday I wanted to take him somewhere nice. I checked out all the reviews and we decided upon lunch. Since it was my husband birthday I wanted to take him somewhere nice. I checked out all the reviews and we decided upon Sparkling Waters. What a surprise! We both had exceptional meals. My husband had the Mediterranean Pasta (tender muscles and seafood very tasty dish). I had the most tense Bison Ribeye ever! I swear I didn't need a knife to cut it and the garlic mashed potatoes were delicious! We would definitely go back.

Well worth the 15 minutes drive from town center! Girls were very friendly, on point with service, attentive, great recommendations for undecided meal choices, service was quick as didnât have to wait very long for dinner. Atmosphere was casual but the meals were comparable to an upscale restaurant. Food was soooo delicious!! Everyone enjoyed their meal. Will DEFINATELY return if Iâm ever in the Bemidji area again. I personally had the Marsala Jerk Chicken Pasta Bowl with the Parmesan bread point. Chocolate torte for dessert! OMG soooo good!!

BEMIDJI Brewery is becoming more exceptional with time. Personally Iâm not into hoppy IPAs but they have at least two or three regularly on tap with differing intensities; their newest...a Vertical Pale Ale. I am fond of the London Rye, rich and malty but not as intense as the dark color suggests. They also serve a refreshing lighter German Blonde and a nice Red they call Red X. New releases roll out often, the latest is a maple syrup barrel aged Double Porter that joins two other Porters on tap. They are constantly changing it up with food specials. Most recently they served a weekend brunch with three great choices. I loved the kale, greens and apple salad with feta cheese and a soft boiled egg paired with their delicious Rye Keller Pilsner. The smoked trout dip is exceptional. They have a popular Wild Rice Dip, pizza, burgers, pretzels with warm Red X dipping sauce, hummus, edamame and Curried Chicken Gyros (to name a few!) Whatâs not to love??This place is becoming the hottest spot in town. Get Hooked!

Went to this venue with sixteen other traveling friends. The place was mobbed but we had reservations. The servers were exceptional. The food was delicious. I had the barbeque brisket and it was a gigantic portion. Great taste. Fellow next to me got the half chicken and it too was a very large portion. Across from me he had the prime rib and both people really enjoyed their meals. Highly recommend this restaurant. Rating... excellent.

We found this place on Trip Advisor and it's a great as advertised. Except you order at the counter, which wasn't expected, but wasn't a problem. Payments use Square so most cards are accepted. Choice of 4 coffees, great variety of breakfast meals, fast and friendly service.And free parking outside.Ticks all my boxes.

Had an inkling for fish tonight, and the reviews brought me here. Both of the servers were very pleasant and helpful. However my Fish and Chips (fries) weren't any better than freezer burnt frozen battered fish. I was extremely disappointed since this was supposed to be an Irish Pub. However, I'm used to The Anchor Fish & Chips in Minneapolis with freshly battered fish. That's a great Irish Restaurant.

Small hometown cafe in downtown Bemidji, MN. Fabulous food!
Reviewed By skmedlin
We looked at several restaurant menus and chose Minnesota Nice Cafe and are really glad we did! We both had open-faced roast beef sandwiches with mashed potatoes and either chunky applesauce or cranberries as the vegetable of the day. Everything was wonderful! The meal came with deluxe cole slaw and that was the best cole slaw I have ever had. We got dessert to go and had lemon meringue pie and bread pudding. They were both great.

Our story starts with a tiny burger place. As our customers excitedly told their family and friends, we grew out of our little space on Minnesota Ave. Over years of planning and construction, we now have a brand new, beautiful facility half a block away.

We ordered a pizza . The peppers were too hot for us but when we picked them off the pizza was delicious. The mud pie for dessert was also very good . Service was great and the restaurant was very attractive.
