on Judys Book Feb 10, 2011A friend and I flew to Minneapolis a couple weekends back and we had heard that Matt's Bar served a Jucy Lucy burger. So we took a taxi to this place and it was really crowded. It was a Friday afternoon and the place was... (more)

on Citysearch Aug 27, 2009Not a wing joint but a magical delight known as the 'jucy lucy'. You have to experience it. Cheese, meat, cheese - beautiful. (more)

on Citysearch Apr 07, 2009You don't go to Matt's for the kind and sympathetic wait staff who have time to wash their hands every 20 seconds. You go to Matt's (it's a bar, remember) for beer and inexpensive, but great, burgers. And Matt's... (more)

on Citysearch Feb 23, 2009Matt's is the best, it is Minneapolis. The jucy lucy at Matt's is the best ever. The oozing motlen cheese core and the onions cooked to perfection make this the best bargain in the city. One order of fries is definitely... (more)

on Citysearch Jan 28, 2009Far better burgers and fries elsewhere in better locations. I think this place is bunk. Yes, it's tasty but it truly is NOT worth the hype. (more)

on Citysearch Jan 20, 2009I went to Matts with one of my friends to see who had the best juicy lucy. We got our burgers with wonder bread bun and the burgers where dry. I think the Nook wins hands down for the best burger. I do like that its a dive... (more)

on Judys Book Dec 31, 2008I rue the day that I found out how close Matt's is to my house. Yes, the decor is hideous, my roommate's have made a pretty good guess at the calories in a Jucy Lucy, and I have come home with blisters on my hands from... (more)

on Citysearch Aug 20, 2008My boyfriend and I ate at Matt's first to try their "JUICY LUCY" and it was GREAT!! Very flavorful and my first one ever. The we went to the 5-8 Club. Nothing like Matt's. Matt's is ABSLOUTELY the BEST by far. 5-8 CLub's... (more)

on Citysearch Jul 20, 2008Okay, this place is a throw back to the fifties, in fact, I would have to say the decor is the same as it was when it opened. The fun of going to this place is that it totally flies in the face of uptight, rude high brow types.... (more)

on Citysearch Jun 15, 2008Simply put, I LOVE the burgers and fries at Matt's!!! The service is adequate and the food is outta this world. The prices can meet most budgets and in all reality this place meets most needs. I think the biggest... (more)

on Citysearch Jun 09, 2008Compared to other South Minneapolis bars, the service at Matt's is great. I've waited 45 minutes at a few other establishments around this area just to get the waitress to get up from in front of the TV and take our... (more)
