    Fantastic food in a great atmosphere. To cold to dine on patio when we were there, but we ate in the Shangri-La. Great live music, plenty of bar service, and the full service menu. Fun place!

    Expensive, but you're paying for the experience. I didn't eat but my friends said their burgers were great and the "mender of broken dreams" drink is fun and tasty for a group! Awesome atmosphere.

    Fried Asparagus and Tater Tots on the appetizer menu are the best! The dipping sauce is devine. Also their bowl/volcanoe drinks are delish. The patio is by far the best part of this spot.

    The back patio overlooking the Mississippi River is the place to be come summer. Sit beneath a chickee hut umbrella, order a Miserable Bastard (dark rum, lime juice, falernum, and bitters). Read more

    With it's new location on Marshall Avenue, Psycho Suzi's built a bona fide boat dock to receive the Twin Cities' thirsty pirates. Arriving by boat? Merely tie up and ascend to the outdoor patio. Read more

    Beautiful patio, although it does get crowded almost any time of day. Delicious citrusy tiki drinks. The best thing is the weekend bloody Mary bar! Tons of snacks for your drink.

    The dry rub wings are the best and each drink comes in its own signature mug. Very fun paradise on the Mississippi River!

    What does a little tiki bar on the prairie look like? Try Psycho Suzi's—a "motor lounge" with a Midwest supper club meets Polynesian dive aesthetic. The back patio is the place to be come summer.

    Good food, great view, waitress was wonderful. Went early in the day so not sure how it is at night though. Oh and you can smoke on the patio! Little pricey but all in all a good time.

    I love Suzi's, but I wish they would stick to the original recipes The Suffering Bastard changed to the Miserable Bastard, and the Ports of Pleasure changed from fantastic to overly syrupy sweet. Ugh!

    Great tunes, great drink and beer selection (lost some big points for not having Grain Belt though) and not the best waiting staff either. Gotta love the BBQ pizza! I give it about a B, B-.

    If you're just visiting the Minneapolis area or live here and never tried it before, this is definitely a place you want to check out. Sit on the patio in the summer! Also, the cheese curds are great!

    The Sriracha-nacho cheese sauce that comes with the tots? Holy wow. Amazing. Careful with the drinks that have no price - while fantastic, they run about $14/ea.

    Ok, the place is hard to enjoy these days, however, they will be moving to a bigger better venue with more parking as well! Let's hope this will help! I still say the food and drinks are worth it!

    Awesome if you ride your bike there (which I did, highly recommended). Good luck finding parking for a vehicle! Service is slow, but sitting at the bar and flagging down a bartender seems to work.

    I have had about 15 deep pies since 1st opened, still very good, just not as good as when 1st opened. Not as deep & cheesy. I will still buy, because sauce is great and they are close, hot & fresh!

    Fun place, lively crowd. I ordered the wrong thing, sandwich was sloppy and tasteless. Pulled pork, ham, swiss cheese (more like a quarter size liquid goo) and red onion (once again hard to find).
