"We had a great experience at this restaurant in Tower. On our way from Ely to the cities, we were looking for a quick and satisfying lunch, and you delivered! The Bloody Mary and iced tea were delicious, and the walleye sandwiches paired with fresh, perfectly crispy French fries and tater tots hit the spot. Our server was attentive and efficient, ensuring we were served promptly. Thank you for the wonderful meal!"

Just pass on by (vs. stopping here. . Fairly certain that any inspection dept. would find multiple infractions here. Ugg! We made the mistake of eating lunch despite how dirty everything was...2 out of 4 of us were sick an hour later.

The first time my friends and I went there, we ended up sharing a table with two guys and ordering pitchers of beer. They told us an interesting story: one of them had tried to call his cousin for a ride since he couldn't drive because of a DWI. However, he accidentally dialed the wrong number and reached the other guy instead. Instead of just hanging up, the other guy said, “Sure, I can come pick you up and take you to the bar.” They ended up having a great time together. If you're ever in Tower, MN, I highly recommend giving this place a try!

I really enjoyed my visit to the restaurant. I had the pizza, while a family member ordered fish and fries. The textures of all the dishes were excellent. The service was great, and I appreciated being able to sit close to the kitchen where I could interact with the staff. I loved the atmosphere of the restaurant. My only minor critique is that the pizza had a bit too much sauce for my taste. Overall, I had a wonderful experience!
