Reviews for The Joint - Tavern & Eatery in Aitkin, MN
Food was good, but the fries get cold fast. Need to change to different fries
Great food for a reasonable price. help was respectful and out going.\nReal down to earth.
We stopped today for an early dinner. We were greeted when we came in which is always nice. We ordered a chicken basket which... was tender and juicy. We also ordered a soup and salad meal the salad was fresh and tasty the soup was Hungarian mushroom one ofthe best I\'ve had. We also had bread pudding with whiskey sauce also delicious. Servers were very friendly. Definitelyrecommend.???? Read more
Great Food, very friendly staff and very clean restrooms! Pull tabs were great too!
Staff were friendly, decor rustic looking, food prices were on the higher side. The food itself was o.k.. I had a 1/2 chicken... (mixed meat) with fries. This was before 4 p.m. , dinners start at 4p.m. I overheard a customer complaining of how little amountof fries he got for $3.50. Staff\'s reply....\"I can\'t do anything about it,I wish I could.\" Will I go back? Not sure if Iwill. Read more
According to their website they had a Cod basket, was disappointed to find out due to staff shortage they removed several menu... items. Ended up having a Cindy\'s Special. It was a good sandwich, lots of ham and turkey with tomato and cheese, grilled.Sandwich came with chips but I wanted fries. Spent $16 which I thought was a little pricey. Read more
MAN OH MAN. If you drive past this joint you better hit a u-turn, haha we did! Best decision of the day. We were in search for... fish fry but we couldn?t drive to duluth or grand marais so with disappointment brewing we just drove home. On the drive i sawthis place looked busy but didn?t think much of i, we drove by this big lake (millacs) i thought theres gotta be fish aroundhere. Searched for one, found a couple with bad reviews, then spotted this one. Great reviews not far drive so we headed back. Icouldn?t believe it was the place i saw on the way. Got in asked if there was fish fry ?only fridays? how sad i got, but lookedon the menu there walleye your choice of grilled, panfried, or deep-fried. Chose deep fried ooooh did that fill my craving.Forgot to take a picture, perfectly crispy, seasoned well, AND still moist on the inside. Oh i cant forget about the sweetpotato fries, ordered extra crispy! And they have siracha, surprised us. There coleslaw is made fresh and lightly seasoned. Theservers are very friendly even the people dining in. The restrooms are well kept. All in all this place is now in our go tostop on the way home. Read more
