"The real cherry on top of the whole place is the men's restroom door that was mounted upside down on giant hinges held in place with lag bolts because it looked like it had been kicked in one too many times."

"Good Food. Great Atmosphere. My #1 spot for Viking games. SKOL!! Went there last night bartender was vacuuming. She stopped to serve me and she asked if it was ok if she kept vacuuming. It showed me while trying to do her work, she was still concerned about her fellow customers feelings."
