It has a huge following on the south end, but I think people on the south end and/or even people who go there often in general want to keep it on the DL/under the radar. Ha! :-) Great place! My buddy is the chef and it is real good. It’s not real heavily advertised but it is a very quaint and good place. Fun fact: The owner or part owner is Mike Shep who used to be the equipment manager for UND hockey. Anyway good place, try it out if you haven’t. Rumor has it when Hak is in town it’s one of his go to places. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnboyND7 Posted December 31, 2021 Share Posted December 31, 2021 I never order steak at restaurants. I can make one at home that is to my liking (and its fun) with limited ingredients/effort.. I generally order things I'm too lazy to make or cannot be cooked at scale (for the mouth breathers, for one or two people). 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Certainly an underrated place in a city that loves chains. Hopefully, none of the reasons is health related. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was not an ideal substitute for Al's, but definitely retained some of the DNA.

gfNDfan Posted January 14, 2022 Share Posted January 14, 2022 Got into La Cantina in the old El Roco on Gateway and South Wash and it was fantastic! Nice conversion to a bar/restaurant and the food is very good. Wife and I had a couple mex entrees - portions were huge and we had more than enough for lunch the next day. Salsa is fresh and good - a little heat but not enough to scare off the scandanavians. Chunky but good with the fresh chips. They were busy but service is quick. A great new place to patronize on the Northend! Miss the Old Roc but they're evolving with the times. Kudos for that! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SIOUXFAN97 Posted January 18, 2022 Share Posted January 18, 2022 interesting choice to move customers to the south side of rhombus brewery....the right side (as you walk in) was always the better side imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crb1 Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 Anyone know how Famous Daves is coming along? I believe when it was in the Heraldo they said like middle of Feb. however I have gone by it a few times in the last couple weeks and doesn’t appear to be much progress from the outside anyway.

Had Half Bros pizza for the first time short while ago. They certainly are focusing making good pizza. They just opened a small event venue in the basement.

Would not have known about it otherwise. Very, very good. Wine, food, staff, everything. I had braised beef over risotto, crab cakes and dirty rice for my partner. We passed plates and were very pleased with both dishes. Caught a lot of glances from others there, so it definitely is a local hangout. I live too far away to be a regular but will certainly go back. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't miss the Korean BBQ Wings with Gojuchang Sauce. Might be one of the best wing flavors in town with sauce that's spicy and sweet and thick. Have lots of napkins on hand but it's totally worth it. They blow the geometric guys out of the water IMO 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
