Reviews summary
At Pounds, diners are treated to exceptional service and a vibrant atmosphere that enhances the dining experience. The Piggy Smalls Sandwich and BBQ Porker Mac and Cheese stand out, featuring delicious pulled pork BBQ sauce that perfectly complements the rich, creamy mac and cheese, enhanced by just the right amount of jalapeño heat. The crispy, well-seasoned fries are equally impressive. While the prices are a bit higher, the quality of food and attentive service make it worthwhile. With options for various diets, including vegan customization, Pounds proves to be a must-visit for anyone seeking great food and fun drinks.

What Mahmoud elJazzar dislikes about Pounds:
First, I would love to thank Lauren the lady that continuously kept checking up on me and always treated me and everyone else like vips. I loved the place, the seatings, the music, I really loved the whole set up. The food was great, well prepared, anddidn't take much time (eventhough it was crowded with people) What to improve: for the chicken sandwich using regular Frenchbread would work fine, the toast... Doesn't... View all feedback.

I finally tried Pounds, and it did not disappoint! The salad and poutine were both delicious. The pretzel bites were so soft and airy they practically melted in my mouth. I highly recommend this place; everything is made from scratch and it really shows!
The food and drinks here are fantastic. I visited specifically for the **** Mary bar, and I must say, the Fruitopias are incredible!
After a minor mistake, Pounds demonstrated exceptional attentiveness to the issue. They genuinely care about their customers. I highly recommend it if you're interested in...

I first saw POUNDS on Diners, Drive-in and Dives and knew I 'd be flying into Fargo soon. When we landed, I decided to stop in before heading over to Ottertail, MN. Megan was my server and provided great suggestions on the various dishes I was considering. I ordered The Grail Burger with an additional order of pickle fries. When the order arrived, it looked terrific. But better yet, the tastes were wonderful. The pickle fries had a very nice batter coating which, was both crunchy, and gave off a nice bit of heat after eating a few. I enjoyed them a lot. The burger was excellent. The patty was done just right, the grilled onions, cheese, lettuce and bacon were in perfect proportion. I was very happy with Megan 's suggestions and will definitely stop in before my flight back home. I 'm looking forward to trying one of their mac 'n cheese bowls. It was a great stop. The food, staff, and atmosphere made for an experience to write home about. Well done, and highly recommended :
Awesome vibe here! I had the Poutine and BBQ Mac and Cheese SO FREAKING DELICIOUS! If you are coming through Fargo, DON'T GO THROUGH WITHOUT STOPPING YOU You will love it! They make simple dishes so delicious!
Cute little burger shop. Has other foods but I usually get a burger from there and a fruit drink. Overall always a good experience and kind attentive staff. My son and enjoyed it as well.
Great atmosphere. A bit on the expensive side (for burgers), but I would say it is worth it. We ordered the Grail and the Sunset Rider. Both delicious! But what took the cake was the fries! I want more!

I have always loved Pounds. They have amazing food and the service is always incredible! Last night was the icing on the cake, my friend, boyfriend and I went for dinner and it was fairly busy. I expected a wait time to sit inside which I was more thanhappy to do, but we were seated almost right away. Our servers were so sweet and so attentive. The food was amazing. Every timeI go I get something new because I know it will be good no matter what. Our server even put a little thank you for beingawesome note on our receipt and it was just so sweet! Pounds is a top tier place to get great food and fun drinks!

I've always been a fan of Pounds. The menu is incredible, and the service is consistently outstanding! Last night was no different—my friend, boyfriend, and I went for dinner during a busy time. I expected to wait to be seated inside, but to my surprise, we were seated almost right away. The servers were friendly and attentive, and the food was absolutely delicious. I always like to try something new from their menu, and it never lets me down. Our server even left a kind note on our receipt, thanking us for being awesome. Pounds is definitely a must-visit for fantastic food and great drinks!

The service at this restaurant was excellent and very fast, and the food was fantastic! We ordered the Piggy Smalls sandwich and the BBQ Porker mac and cheese. The pulled pork BBQ sauce was delicious without being overpowering, and it complemented both the sandwich and the mac and cheese perfectly. The mac and cheese sauce was also mild but rich and creamy. Jalapenos added just the right amount of spice without overshadowing the flavors of the meat and sauce. The fries were crispy and not overly salty. My wife and I agreed that Pounds exceeded our expectations and we were happy we decided to dine there.
We had a great time at this restaurant with a fun atmosphere and delicious food. The fries were amazing and we can't wait to come back for more. The pickle ranch dipping sauce was a game-changer!
Megan B provided excellent service at the club, which was exceptional and one of the best I have experienced. The French fries were light and crispy with no grease, and I also sampled my wife's Porker, which was very tasty. The portions for lunch were good. We are from out of town and would likely visit again if we were in the area. The drinks also looked delicious.

Pounds is a fantastic place to enjoy creative cocktails and beers in a lively atmosphere. Their menu features hippie bowls and burgers that can be customized to be vegan upon request, along with a variety of fries options. It’s definitely one of my favorite spots to dine out as a vegan.
