Couldn't believe the value!!

by chac02

They have a Saturday patio grill special 12-4 - burgers & brats and such all for $5. It was awesome! Whats more Minnesotan than enjoying a beautiful day on a patio with an outdoor grill - kickin out those brats! Good times!

• Pros: great value, great food &service
• Cons: none

I wish "The View" would stop writing reviews on here!

by foodman1622

Tryg's has the best happy hour in town, and $2 grilled appetizers after 9pm tuesday-saturday. The view is at the bottom of the food chain, and they know it! After 7pm there is no one there! Grow up "View", you have completely ruined your own business-now be mature enough to accept it.

• Cons: Being mentioned in the same sentence as "The View"

Needs good management, hiring and training

by uptowndweller

We've been going to Tryg's since it opened, and we're really trying to like the place, but they make it really hard. Unless you sit at the bar right under a bartender's nose, you can NOT get noticed. On Sunday nights, there is no supervision. We had to catch someone's eye to get a table, and sat there with menus for a good long time while servers walked on by--no eye contact, nothing. This place needs management! Go to The View instead--friendly, attentive employees, great food.

• Pros: great bar atmosphere
• Cons: Servers are inattentive, clueless

Bad News Bears

by hage0269

I like the fire pit outside and that's about it. The bar area is ugly, outdated and with too many softball teams. The prime rib that I had here was possibly the worst I've ever had; even in a small town casino in Morton MN. BAD!

Good food, terrible service

by strand2641

I have gone to Tryg's a number of times with my husband as we like the food, but we always have an awful experience. Every time we go, we are left sitting at the table with no server, menus are not available, left waiting to order or never receive something we've ordered. We are not going to go back.

Sunday Brunch

by Bucklaw

Sadly brunch was ruined by an obnoxiously loud jazz trio. We could not hear each other talk and left with headaches! We went to Tryg's for brunch, not a concert. We will not return on a Sunday. Service was much improved this time around, however, and the food is decent. (A good rule of thumb seems to be: If you see guys bartending, leave. If the ladies are working behind the bar, stay. They are better at what they do.)

• Pros: Parking, Menu
• Cons: Loud Live Music Sundays, Inconsistent Service

Great Atmosphere-Even better food!!

by gorant

I live in the neighborhood, and go out to eat at least 2 times a week. Now I love the options that downtown Minneapolis has to offer, but with the great atmosphere, live music, and great menu-not to mention a parking lot you could park a 747 in. Tryg's offers a great conveinient experience. Its great energy! You really should check i out!

• Pros: Fresh seafood, warm, great energy
• Cons: Theres not more like them!

poor service

by mollyolson

My boyfriend and I went there the other night for a few drinks. We were in the neighborhood and there was live music. There weren't very many people there and the bar was full of empty seats. We sat down at the bar and waited for a least half an hour and watched the music. The bartender didn't even come over to us. Meanwhile all the old people got service. bartender = ageist or lazy, or only interested in plastic suburban people.

• Pros: wouldn't know
• Cons: horrible service, bad conversations in the atmosphere
