Average. If it was located someplace where you have multiple pizza options, it wouldn't do near the business it does. More kid friendly than most in the area.

Loved the pizza. Wasn't too crazy about having to order on the way in the door, which we didn't figure out until standing around for a while and watching other people. A very noisy place with lots of kitschy stuff to look at on the walls. A fun place to visit, especially if you still have young kids who get... More

Although the place was packed (I didn't know what to expect since I'd never been before), the people who work there are really friendly and quite helpful. I would definately go again when in the mood for pizza. It is obviously a place for families and I can understand why since the prices are very good. The portions are generous... More

Go no further. Whether it's eat in, or take out, the food is great. The Mesabi Red beer is great, too.

Nothing spectacular, but the pizza is good. It's slightly above average, but if I were to visit the town again I would definitely go.

The Hump Day Buffet in the winter is great. Locals come often and load up on pizza slices of all varieties. Also included is a drink, salad, soup, pasta if you wish and dessert. It's a deal.

Visited for first time while staying at Lutsen Resort for spring break. I am a pizza nerd so i was skeptical but the pizza was great. Good, chewy texture on the crust, real cheese with ample amounts and fresh ingredients. Service was average at best but the food came out very fast. Would definitely go back.

I had a pizza this place. To get a really good review of pizza, the pizza would have to be spectacular. This was more average. It was nice to sit down after a solo trip into the BWCA. The people here are friendly. One March back in 2009, I had just come out of the BWCA from a winter trek... More

You see their bumper stickers all over Minnesota and I always wondered if it really was somewhere 'special'. We've been there 3-4 times in the past several years and the place was the same this week as it was the first time. You step up to a counter to order and then go sit down in a room decorated with...
