The Paddle Trap - Mandan

Went for an event and the food was buffet style. The steak tacos were good, but the chicken were not. That was disappointing, especially considering the price. Otherwise, I liked the huckleberry drink options!

Please follow us on Facebook and Instagram at SNDTRAVELS and EATWELLTRAVELOFTEN Always looking for a a view with my meal it brought me here along the Missouri River. I arrived at 5:30 and while most of the inside was empty, I decided to wait for a patio table beside the river. Nice view. I ordered 1/2lb of wings dry with the sauce on the side and the Walleye cheeks . Both appetizers. The wings came out 5) with some kind of seasoning instead of dry but were good enough Idecided not to complain. The cheeks come in light breading and were off and on so far as tender or overcooked. I know small pieces like that are hard to be consistent in frying so no real problem. I had ordered ice tea but when it came outit was not very good. Not too many times I send back tea but I switched to Dr Pepper. The server Karie, was very friendly and helpful. The issue came at checkout. Putting it on the hand held computer, I never saw an itemized bill untilafter I had gotten a receipt and left. Looking at the receipt at the hotel I realized I had been charged for both the ice tea 3)and the DP 3) and also .75 for putting the sauce on the side as if I ordered extra sauce. I didn 't orderextra, I just had them put it on the side. Next time I 'll make sure I make them show me the itemized version up front. Overall is was good but just plain. Nothing special. You do pay extra for the view. Overall I would give them anothershot sometime but I 'll probably try someone else first. There 's just a couple of waterfront options.

Nice setting, something different to do. Enjoyed the date!

We had a fantastic time that was very memorable for our family!

Came here for brunch on Sunday for the first time and couldn't believe this place wasn't busier! Whan an awesome and beautiful space. Staff and service were great, the food and coffee were good, and you can't beat the patio with the fall morning sun next to the river. I will definitely be back during the week with my laptop to sit have coffee/lunch and check out the live music on Thursday nights as well!I didn't see the regular lunch/dinner menu, but I do wish the brunch menu had more breakfast forward options. I had the vegetables with eggs (and it was good! but that seemed to be the only breakfast option without meat that didn't lean more towards being regular lunch fare. It did have a lot of flavor though so even though I normally don't like to return to a place and get the same thing in favor of trying something new, I would order it again.
