Old Capital Tavern - Sauk Rapids

The food is fantastic. The best I have had in the area. High quality. The service is always a touch slow when I’ve been in, but I suspect that is more a byproduct of the workforce shortage and how busy it always is. Highly recommend!

I find the negative reviews on here to be a pretty accurate. Pay attention to the responses to the negative reviews by ownership/management... Should be all you need to know. They try to pass themselves off as higher-end dining in the area... That 's laughable! This place would be a great episode of Kitchen Nightmares especially with the attitudes of the management/ chef 's there! Also why was there an investigation by the labor board or whatever. That usually gets opened when employees complain about practices specifically about the payment to the employees....

First time here. 50 beers on tap, the bartender was really knowledgeable and brought us some samples really liked a mix of New Belgium Voodoo Ranger Atomic Pumpkin and Down East Cider Donut. Wife had a brisket sandwich and I had a meatloaf sandwich with a cup of creamy potato soup. Bartender brought a small cup of ranch dressing to put in the soup and OMG did that elevate the taste!!

Food was amazing got the pork belly mac n cheese. To die for! Will definitely be coming back. Also the down east pumpkin spice cider on tap is a win win

I saw an ad for this place when I moved up to the area years back. I finally decided to check it out, and I'm glad I did! I've now been back several times. They have weekly specials in addition to their regular menu. They must have some great people in the kitchen, because I have loved my meal every time. I've had a few different servers, and a couple weren't the greatest, but Annabelle and Angie are the absolute best! All around a great place
