Dakota's Restaurant and Bar

The service and food made me forget about the sparse atmosphere. Quality food. Good portion size. Fair prices. A great place for discussion with friends. Casual convenience. Like sitting at your own kitchen table.

Casual restaurant and bar. The service was good and it's not to pricey. Nightly specials for food and drink. A great selection of beer. The chicken wings had lots of good sauces and we're very tasty.

A very busy (at lunch time, when we went) eatery in central intercity area of Thunder Bay. Menu was varied with a good variety of dishes that would appeal to most. They were packed when we arrived though it only took 5 minutes or so for a table to open up. Service was quick, friendly and efficient and it looked like everyone was engaged in ensuring people were taken care of quickly. Quality of food was excellent and some very interesting dishes available as well. Parking is less than ideal over the standard 11:30 - 1:30 lunch period. We had to park on the side of the road.

Ribs were burnt and I would not feed those to my dog. It was like eating in a sauna with 4 flys in your face the whole time.

I went there for lunch and had a really great burger. The following week went for dinner and did not enjoy the burger at all...overcooked and dry. The french fries were far too overcooked, could not eat them.
