Food was decent. For some reason my bacon came out covered in eggs. I don’t like eggs so that ruined the bacon. I finished my water before the food was served and never got offered a refill. The bill was almost $60 for 3 adults and 2 kids which seemed spendy for what we got.

Went for a late lunch early supper.the wife and iBoth had chicken dinners.the best part was the slice of bread.what restaurant serves canned vegetables anymore.potatoes were sour and the small tablespoon of dressing (which we didn't finish) was dry and gross.the chicken was hot but bland. But not horrible.we had to ask twice for more water so the service was not great.staff seemed nice and talked to all the regulars but we are kinda ignored.will not go back.not worth the money.was very expensive and I don't mind paying more but quality was not there

Absolutely rude. Called to order a to go order and asked what type of meat was inside the meat omelette and the person on the other line laughed out loud when I asked and answered "Meat". Awful customer service. Worst ever.

I’ve never eaten here. They do allow a guy to use there parking lot and sell Trump flags. Very sad, I wouldn’t ever come to this restaurant. That kind of stuff, tells you a lot about their character.

This place is amazing. The people especially. The servers put you first they care so much about the people who walk through that door, for being a bar/ bowling alley the food is really good, you don't find many businesses like this anymore!

Great food at reasonable prices. If you are looking for a diner that focuses on cooking tasty food instead of worrying about fancy looks, this is a great place for you. The interior of the restaurant is very functional and might actually really be from the 1960s. They are open early for breakfast. The only thing I don't like is that they close at 8pm.

First time at Red Ox Cafe this morning. I ordered the Omelette Supreme with a side of pancakes. The omelette was delicious, especially with the hash browns, and the pancakes were fluffy and golden. Quite filling!

Food was good, service was faster then I expected with the amount of customers (place was pretty full) and only one waitress at 8:30am. She was so sweet and kind. We would highly recommend.

Greatest breakfast place there is north of the Twin Cities. The food is all homemade, the pancakes are to die for. The variety of choices is worth the trip alone. Plenty for everyone and anyone.

A small hole in the wall kinda place. The weather was pretty nasty out but they were busy. I knew then that the locals thought the food and atmosphere was worth getting out. I was right! Great atmosphere, the waitress treats you like an old friend, and the food was good. Definitely a place that you must stop at if you're hungry. Even though I didn't have any they also bake their own breads from scratch.

Food was ok. Service was terrible. Took 5 minutes to be asked what i wanted to drink and another 5 to get a cup of coffee. Waited 25 minutes for my meal. A customer aka chief, just walked in that everyone seemed to know.. he got service immediately and his food came before mine. Friendly atmosphere if they know your name or face. Otherwise you wait to be waited on. I don't suggest going unless they know you. I wont be back
