on Citysearch Oct 23, 2009I've been here a number of times within the past year and the experience has been inconsistent, and mostly on the bad side. There's usually a really long wait to get seated, which I wouldn't mind, except I would expect... (more)

on Citysearch Feb 21, 2009Hands down these are the best burgers in Minnesota. Loved the Paul Molitor. Plan on waiting for a table though. I have yet to visit the Nook and there is no wait. If you have a little patience, you will be rewarded with... (more)

on Citysearch Jan 28, 2009I love the juicy nookie with fried onions and fresh cut fries. LOVE! I also love the pizza here. I don't love the cramped room nor the atmosphere. Plus, it can take awhile to receive your food. FOR SURE the best burger in... (more)

on Citysearch Dec 29, 2008The Nook has a strong reputation in the Twin Cities, which is puzzling. I've found the place to be consistently mediocre at best, and a l... (more)

on Citysearch Dec 12, 2008I had heard from friends from the area that The Nook was the place to go for good food. Never bothered to try it since I'm not from the area. Saw it on Food Network and finally decided I had to give it a shot and I was NOT... (more)

on Citysearch Oct 16, 2008When I first looked at the outside of this small liitle nook as I was looking for a space to park I was questioning how DDD could have fit there cameras and Guy's big mouth in there. All 10 tables were full at 2 PM. Luckily... (more)

on Citysearch May 01, 2008The first time I went there I didn't like my burger at all. The cheese they put on top was one large chunk that didn't even melt and was rubbery. At the insistence of my husband we went again and I had the Alumni burger with... (more)

on Citysearch Mar 26, 2008This is a long over due review! This is the best burger! The best juicy lucy (I order the Molitor). I had wondered if I was bias but my friends confirmed my opinion; better tan Matt's, 5/8, Chatterbox, Herkemier, etc. It... (more)

on Citysearch Mar 19, 2008Excellent hand-formed burgers done to your order, great fries, onion rings, and beer. Try to snag a spot at the bar as it is ALWAYS busy here. The service is efficient and if you LOVE burgers as much as I do, you will LOVE... (more)

on Citysearch Feb 23, 2008What a joint!!! We have been there a couple times. The place is small and the atmosphere is cozy, so be prepared to wait. The wait is worth it. The staff is fantastic. They all have smiles whether they are waiting on you or... (more)

on Citysearch Feb 19, 2008I have heard so many great compliments about the burgers at this place, but wonder when is the best time to go? I recently moved just blocks away and was very excited to be so close to hopefully get in at a random time.... (more)

on Citysearch Feb 18, 2008I love burgers and fries and drove 26 miles to try them at The Nook for lunch today. By 10:45 there were about 15 of us standing outside in -19 wind chill temp, but doors were not opened until 11:00. Once inside we were told... (more)

on Citysearch Feb 12, 2008I love many burgers for different reasons. This one I love because of the bar food quality. Meat - good, cheese - good, buns - good, together excellent! It comes in a basket, that's what I mean by bar food. The fries... (more)

on Citysearch Feb 10, 2008The best burger place in the Twin Cities by far. We all had a different burger and they were all fantastic - as were the perfectly beer-battered onion rings that we ordered as a side. The fries are homemade and totally... (more)

on Citysearch Feb 03, 2008This dive of a burger joint is a 5 star in my book because it does everything you expect in a classic burger. It's big, it's cheezy, it's hot, it comes in a basket, it has really good crispy dark golden fries next to it. The... (more)

on Citysearch Jan 21, 2008While I was there I listened to the wait staff be mad about people calling for directions, due to Diners Drive inns and Dives review of them., hummm seems like free national advertising to me. Also the burgers were... (more)

on Citysearch Jan 02, 2008Great burgers, although slightly greasy. It's the buzz and fell of the places that wins it. If you're looking for a disctinctive hole-in-the-wall neighborhood burger joint, this is it. Only got 4/5 stars because it... (more)
