Absolutely lovely place. The decor was very relaxing and made me feel right at home. The staff were very nice and attentive to the table. The food was wonderful! I had the MN Nice burger with a side of potatoes and gravy. Wonderfully crafted burger which delivered a wonderful mix of flavors with every bite. Highly recommend!

It's true, this dish was THAT good. Don't call me no Jamba-laya... ;) I'm not lyin!--No pants on fire over here, just burnin' taste buds Here's the lineup from a fine local tavern: ---- Jambalaya with Chicken, Andouille Sausage, Shrimp, Spicy tomato stew, and Creole dirty rice The People's Burger with Smoked brisket blended patty, Cheddar cheese, Tomato jam, Roasted poblano, and Garlic aioli on Brioche Chicken Enchiladas with Shredded lettuce, Pico de gallo, Sour cream & Guajillo rice ---- Call it The Golden Nugget or a hidden gem, this Minnetonka eatery knows can cook several kinds of cuisine in cravable fashion The Jambalaya was my jam! Just enough heat from the meat and stew, accompanied by a textural contrast of classic dirty rice and cravable crustaceans made this a delish take on a Cajun Classic The enchiladas were ever so elevated by the slightly spicy guajillo chili served in no small portion--and that includes the holy-buckets-worth of cheese! My foodie friend had this pipin' hot order surpass his expectations And finally, a burger made with brisket--How could that be bad! No beef with this menu chief, which continues to win TGN's monthly burger battle between two new beef creations where the victor remains on the menu I loved the sweetness of the tomato jam, the bite of the poblanos, the addition of creamy garlic aioli...And of course, such a hefty handled requires a robust brioche bun for consumption The Golden Nugget is certainly a valuable find--and I promise, it's no fools gold! With options for every appetite, you'll probably have to go back and find more favorites. I recommend trying mine... or mine to find your own supreme selections! Many thanks to Annette and Kos for joining me on two unique foodie expeditions full of trying new things!

Went here for Valentine's Day because my husband saw it available on Open Table. Thought it would just be basic burgers and other pub food. They had a pretty good Valentine's Day dinner menu. Food and service was great!

The new happy hour is fantastic! Very good deals on food and drinks. As always, the service and food is amazing. Gold Nugget Tavern & Grille now has one of the best happy hours in town and I can’t wait to visit again!
