Citysearch Editorial Review – The inside of this South Minneapolis staple looks like your grandma’s basement, that is if your grandma was a fan of dark paneled walls, bar stools so old the vinyl is splitting, and Grain Belt Beer that comes in a can. This nothing-fancy dive bar is old-school Minneapolis all the way, outfitted with only two windows and relying on the neon glow of old Summit beer signs to provide the real ambience. People come from all over to Matt’s, the home of the original, cheese-filled burger, the Jucy Luc... read more
kinda weird – a hot summer night, got to Matts bar with my girl Jordan. its a neighborhood bar, and we didnt know anybody, people looked at us like we are from the moon (cuz we are so pretty, but thats fine). the bartender was lame, and try to get my number, no thanks! we had the Jucy lucy burger and fries, not bad. but, after all, cheap beer, and my best friend, its all i need!!!
Awesome Jucy Lucy's! – Go there for the Jucy Lucy's! Two thin patties stuffed with American cheese fried on a never-been-washed flattop grill. Your choice of grilled or raw onions, no other veggies (lettuce tomatoes etc) available. What can be simpler? Wait staff is friendly, but don't forget, you're in a neighborhood bar so don't give 'em any guff and you won't git none. It's hard to get more Minneapolis than this!
The real deal! – Not a wing joint but a magical delight known as the 'jucy lucy'. You have to experience it. Cheese, meat, cheese - beautiful.
great bar best burgers – My grandfather took my mom and her two sisters to MATT'S back in the 50's he drank LEINENKUGEL'S, they had JUICY LUCY burgers and shakes. I just went for the first time, great staff very nice as well as efficient. The place was packed, because of the great food, after a short wait my mom and I got seats at the bar. I had a LEINENKUGEL'S and a JUICY LUCY the place couldn't have been better.
Whiners...stay at home – You 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 delivers! The Jucy Lucy's are amazing; and the fries are hot, the beer cold, the atmosphere is loud, eclectic and local (that's part of the fun), and the prices can't be beat. If you can't deal with an old-fashioned bar, a staff who work flat-out and have little time to coddle you, stay at ho... read more
Is the great food really worth your health? – Today was my first experience in Matts. I was excited to have my first Jucy Lucy. My friend and I had went there today and right away things didnt go so well.When we got there, there was no seating except for 2 bar stools at the bar. The waitress asked us what we needed and we told her we would wait until a table became available and sit at the bar stools. Finally after what seemed like forever, a table became available. To my surprise the waitress who we ordered our food through... read more
HORRIBLE SERVICE***GREAT FOOD – HORRIBLE HORRIBLE HORRIBLE service I mean Soooooooooo RUDE we wanted to leave! We sat @ the bar observing: They DO NOT wear gloves the bartender cashiers then wraps up the food, back and forth NOT washing her hands in between. The cook also does not wear gloves or wash his hand after he wipes the sweat from his fore head w/his arm....So these people ordered burgers w/no onions well the cook put onions on them and the bartender took it upon herself to wipe off the onions w/her bare hands and pu... read more
best place to take people from out of town who want to go somewhere unique to minneapolis – Matt'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 enough for 2 or 3 people to share. You can leave here splitting a pitcher, an order a fries, and your own burger for aorund 15 with tip. This is a stereotypical dive bar, but mostly a dive bar for food, so you could br... read more
