What People Are Saying About Dangerfield Restaurant

In Short – Pass through the conservative, country club interior and pull up a chair outside on the screened-in patio. Shakopee folks and families flock to the restaurant, while a slightly younger crowd sticks to the two-level, pest-free deck. The quiet outdoor space provides a relaxing place to nibble an appetizer and sip something refreshing out of a jelly-jar mug. The extensive menu consists of straight-from-the-freezer bar food and a few meat-and-potatoes entrees.

HORRIBLE management
by katiej211
The one star is simply for the ambience and popovers. We had tried booking a room for a special event. First, Gus, the owner, double booked and tried moving us elsewhere, to a room that would not fit our party size. Then, when we went to meet with him, he was late to the meeting, could care less that we were there, and didn't make any effort to apologize for 1. changing our event booking or 2. not being able to accomodate. This place has completely gone down the tubes. The owner is not about service or pride in his restaurant.
- Pros: Popovers
- Cons: Management, service, special events

GO SOMEWHERE ELSE
by tornleather
Made a reservation for Easter. Owner did not get the name right. He had a person written down that was close but not my name. I said that was most likely the one. HE seemed like he did not believe us even though I told him what day and times he had said where available and he confirmed that was correct. He then proceeded to put us in a make shift lower level basement area that looked like a bunch of card tables with cheap clothes. The table was jammed into a corner next to the buffet line so all the people waiting where pressed up against our table and there was a door right behind one of the chairs that the waiters had to use to get to the kitchen. On top of that an air conditioner loud as can be was running a few feet from the table. The buffet looked like a third country buffet ( I could put on as good a spread with a couple of heat trays). Needless to say we did not stay and ended up at a much nicer buffet for the same price with three times the options and selection. I would not waste my time and hope nobody else will waste their time. When I mentioned we were leaving and he could give the table to someone else the owner was not even concerned or surprised. HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE, NEVER WILL EAT AT THIS DUMP!!!!
- Pros: NONE
- Cons: CUSTOMER SERVICE

Sadly going downhill
by StanleyQ
My family and I used to love coming here but things keep getting worse everytime we go back. The service has gotten so slow and the food is just not the same quality and taste that it used to be. The dining room is stil beautiful and the view breathtaking but it doesn't make up for the high prices you pay to eat there. The portions are much smaller than they used to be and the food tastes like it has been frozen. Sad to say, unless the owner changes things for the better, we won't be back to Dangerfields. Good luck.
- Pros: Ambience
- Cons: Poor service, low quality food with high prices
