Billy's On Grand

terrible customer service

by tastefullysimple

I had to return my food 3 times because the bread was hard, the salad was brown and the vegetables were dried up. the waitress was very sarcastic and rude and tried to convince me there was nothing wrong with the food and I was the first person in 7 years to return my food. when I asked to talk to a manager, she refused and said she was the acting manager. when I contacted Billys they never got back to me. I will always remember this experience and tell people about it.

Terrible Twin Cities Lunch Destination

by dumbellsandgunbelts

I consider myself a local expert on lunch hot spots. Billy's on Grand is incredibly subpar. I'd explain the whole thing, but there is an article in the Minneapolis Examiner that explains is well. To find it - Google search: "Twin Cities Worst Lunch Spots: Billy's on Grand". Should be the first link.

• Pros: Patio
• Cons: Everything else

Never going back

by Caperluv

When you're in trouble and 2 feet from the bouncer....they're no help. I guess they're only job is to pack them in like sardines. I thought Bouncers were meant to help when problems arise...they only took one side and left the scene for it to only get worse.

This place is so lame- go here at your own risk

by jessicabessica

Hi everybody! I absolutely hate this place......I went here to party with my peeps on Friday and couldn't have had a more rude waitress. She brought the wrong drinks and complained about her "rude" customers to other co-workers in front of the whole place.

The food was also really cold and I fear I will get sick from the food if I go back. The kitchen area looks like a petrie dish of disease. I really hope everyone avoids this place like the plague.

My peeps and I certainly will in the future!!!!

Peace out.

• Pros: None
• Cons: Poor service, yucky food, dirty

Hmm...

by equuslynn

The food is classic grill fare and has been consistently good. The service staff is another story. Recently my sister was in town and after an day of shopping on Grand Avenue we stopped in for a late lunch/early dinner. We had to try to catch the attention of the hostess and then our waitress barely acknowledged us before returning to chat with a table full of college-age young men. We were nearly ignored, the chips and salsa appetizers was very disappointing and I was embarrassed to have suggested this restaurant to my sister.

• Pros: Consistent Food
• Cons: Poor Service

Fun Hang Out

by libbiepup

This is a fun place to meet your friends and grab a drink! The food is decent and the social scene is fun. Billy's is especially fun during the summer when you can grab a table outside.

Great Patio and Bar

by bworp

Billy's is a great place to hang out on Grand on a Sunny afternoon and have a couple beers. They guys can camp out on the patio or in the bar to catch the game, and let the girls shop all of the local boutiques. As the weather cools off they have the big patio warmers, allowing you to enjoy the MN outdoors just a little longer. Also do a shuttle to wild games.

• Pros: Great Patio

Girl must be out of her mind

by joewilson

Since when was it a Security guards job to work as your body guard, they are there to protect the bar, make sure everyone is legal and stop dangerous situations from occuring inside the bar. If you have been going out to bars for two years you should be a big enough girl to handle getting talked to by drunk people. If you don't like them, tell them that and move on. Tattle tailing to a bar employee that you didn't like the person that just talked to you won't get you anywhere. Security does not kick people out because you used to date them, they wronged you by calling you a name or they talked to your friend instead of you. Grow up. You are an adult act like one.
