Tycoons Alehouse and Eatery

We came here last fall at the recommendation of a girl at our hotel.  I am really glad we did.  We loved the food and the ambiance.  We live in the Twin Cities and this meal in the same type of eatery would have been probably double the price.  

I give this place a 5 because it is unique and we will for sure go back again.  Our server (cannot remember his name) was very arrogant though.  We made fun of him the entire time he was waiting on us.  A gal came over to clear our plates and she was awesome, so I think this is not the norm at Tycoons and downstairs as well.  

If you are here, you also need to check out the downstairs.  It is awesome.  Eat upstairs and then have a drink or dessert downstairs.

Dinner time!  but first, let's sample some Fitger's brews!

We sampled 3 beers at the Alehouse.  By far the tastiest was the Apricot Wheat.  The apricot flavor stood out as a clean after taste to finish each sip.  It was smooth and way too drinkable.  

The Apricot Wheat also went well with the Fish and chips I ordered.  The fish was a couple of nice sized chunks of fillet that were nicely breaded and crispy.  My mouth is watering just thinking of that meal, it was cooked to perfection.  The chips were potato wedges.  These were also nice and crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.  I have a new appreciation for fish and chips after that meal.  

One of the highlights of our visit was going into the elevator and pressing the -1 floor button.  The doors opened up into the old jail/speak-easy.  It has a historic feel to it and made for a great environment and discussion through the night.

Awesome food and a great atmosphere. Love this place! The Mac and cheese is to die for!
