No Neck Tony's Lake Elmo

Avoid the French dip. For $15, I expected a LOT more. Drinks, fries and bun were great, but the meat was like dry, grisly leather. I choked it down to avoid wasting it. My honest constructive feedback was countered by with an uncomfortable smile and,?we know, we?re working on it.? That?s it. Nothing else. The first few times we stopped here the food was OUTSTANDING. Not surewhat happened. Price and expectations are out of balance.

My husband and I do not go to bars very often, however after a beautiful day of working in the yard we cleaned up and went out. We had a couple of drinks and some food. I had an unusual and very tasty drink that included peanut butter whiskey, and anespresso ice cube. It was very tasty and cleverly presented. In the food department, my husband had a burger and I had a cheeseplate, both very tasty. To top it off there was live music!

We stopped in for a quick bite and a beverage. To our surprise there was someone performing some classic songs, and he had a great voice. Very entertaining! We sat on the back patio and enjoyed a beer, gin and tonic, and split a couple apps. Funplace!

Finally we went to No Neck Tony's in Lake Elmo. We have been meaning to for some time as residents of Lake Elmo. The drinks were very good, the food we ordered was exceptional and the atmosphere was great. Music not too loud, well designed and gooduse of the space. Apparently, I should have used the ladies room based on the comments I read. Oh well, next time.

Great place, particularly if you get a night with live music. Food selection isn't great, but what they do have, they are good at. Unfortunately my wife is allergic to seafood, so that eliminated portions of the already limited menu for her. Drinksselection is great, including local craft beer. Service is was fine, but nothing outstanding. We will be back again.
