Wonderful food, great drinks, and really wonderful bread. We went early and had the place to ourselves practically. What a great place!

I love the treats here. some of the flavors definitely bring back memories of days long gone. My favorite is the cake batter. It reminds me of licking the beaters after mom would bake a birthday cake. Prices are no higher than anywhere else. They also have more non-traditional flavors but nothing to be considered weird. My kids love the Oreo Cream filling and then they top it with sprinkles. There are tons of combos. Create your own or try one of their favorites.

I love ordering and enjoying my fast food lunch at Val’s. A unique ordering system helps expedite your order. Don’t forget to order your condiments at the same time. Expect a generous amount of french fries and a simple hamburger made to order promptly made. Not the most nutritious meal and nothing fancy.

Friendly staff. Lots of great frozen yogurt flavors and tons of fresh, unique toppings. Love the fresh fruit selections, brownie bites, truffles, and everything else! It's easy to take too much. They also run some great coupon deals in the St Cloud Times. Will be back again soon!

I had it confused earlier with the TapHouse, I think...anyway, I was under the impression it was all ribs....until I was in Kansas City with a coworker who raved about steaks at the Texas Roadhouse! When I went with my roomie, it was very busy, and the atmosphere is very loud. The peanuts on the table are a nice touch, as is the bread basket they bring. That's all hers - not my cup of tea, but a nice touch. I either get a salad and a potato or broccoli and potato, and I go for the 16 oz Ft Worth Ribeye. I took it home - it's alot but a great doggie bag! Cooked to perfection! Service was good. It's crowded and I don't really like to be seated next to a bunch of children, and the line-dancing is mostly heard and not seen. Don't expect intimate conversation here. Eat, enjoy, and go home. Had a good margarita too. Plan on spending what you will on a good steak dinner and you won't be disappointed. Delicious, and a great choice of sides!

I visited the white Horse for the first time a few weeks ago. I started with a side salad, the homemade ranch dressing was excellent, probably the best homemade ranch dressing I have ever had! After the salad I tried the walleye and fried brussel sprouts, I wasn't sure to expect but I enjoy trying new things.. The brussel sprouts were to die for! The service was excellent, my soda was never more than half empty.. I can't wait to go back and try the spicy salmon.. This is a must try for locals or visitors. Very unique and selections you will not find elsewhere.

Love the flavors, lots of gluten free items to choose from. I hit the end of the lunch buffet and I was glad to be able to taste a few of their offerings. Really liked the fried vegetables with chickpea batter! Very helpful and friendly staff. Will bring my family here again sometime.

We're a unique St Cloud Area restaurant in an authentic log cabin nestled along the Sauk River. We are family owned & operated since 1973.
Reviewed By kampavilina - Saint Cloud, Minnesota
Our Japanese guests were keen to try Anton's famous popovers. With the special nutmeg butter, these are absolutely delicious! We ordered their walleye and a chicken dish, both very good. They substituted plain wild rice for the regular pilaf rice so that our guests could try wild rice (maybe the pilaf would've been more delicious). We sat at a round table a short distance from the big picture window looking out at the ducks and geese. If you're visiting with four or less, you might enjoy sitting in the wagon wheel style booths. There's also seating in an enclosed deck on the second level. The restaurant is filled with historical nicknacks, so if you want to take a step back in time, check out Anton's.
9. Lacasita Restaurant

We dined here on a Saturday night and it was crowded, and that's usually a good sign!
We ordered fish tacos and a chicken burrito. The burrito was BURSTING with tender grilled chicken... my daughter ordered it without any veggies, and it came with EXTRA chicken. She was thrilled. I wouldn't order the fish tacos again. It didn't taste at all like mahi mahi as advertised, and was very "fishy". It was chopped up in small pieces like fish-bits. The plate did come with a generous pile of roasted veggies and rice which was good. The salsa and chips before the meal was BEUNO!

Great food with a good Happy Hour! I go their frequently for lunch with friends. They have a very vast menu to choose from. The food is consistently good! Menu has more less expensive lunch options which was a nice change. They have some great special for Happy Hour which is something to check out! If you like going to Happy Hour and like to great value go check it out.
