    Packed house for MSHSL Boys' Hockey Tournament. Amazed by the ability of staff to accommodate so many guests. Great place to eat not only during tournament time but throughout the year. Wonderful pricing for good food and drinks.

    Always like the Downtowner. Atmosphere is great. I ordered the chicken omelette and it wasn’t as good as the previous one they had. The previous one had strips of rotisserie chicken and I believe hollandaise sauce. This one had chunks of chicken and a sauce with very little flavor. I would not order it again. Hash browns were crispy to my liking. Would still go back for breakfast but would order something different. Also did not appreciate the hour limit on the table. Felt very rushed.

    All of our food was excellent: the steak, the vegetarian pasta and the Walleye. Our server was great and we loved the feel of the place.
