Made a reservation for inside. Was put at a tiny table in the back area which looked like a party room. There was a heater that was very loud. There were bugs everywhere. They were on the walls and crawling on us and on the table in food and the drinks. Terrible experience. Waiting so long just for a waiter to come to the table. Food was good but not with the threat of all the bugs.

I had a team of 30 people in town and we needed to find a space to have dinner. I reached out to Jason at Halvorson's and he helped coordinate a private space that was perfect for our group. We had a reception area with a private bar, and then a seated dinner in another private room. We had plenty of space even without the outdoor patio due to rain. The food was great, the staff was phenomenal, and the night went off without a hitch. I would absolutely recommend for any large group events.

Love this place on upper Church Street! I have been coming for a long time and it never gets old. Check out the patio/courtyard, which is a little gem that they have for music. The woodwork is great and has that early 1900s feel to it. Outdoor seating as well during the nice months and I have barely waited for a table over the years. Try to get the tables by the windows for two if you can!

Wow! Those may be the best Brussel sprouts I've ever eaten. The chili was great. The poutine was really good. Great ambiance. Wonderful experience.

Pretty disappointing overall. Waited around 45 minutes for food to arrive. After asking a couple of times when to expect the food, the waitress (who was doing the best she could) eventually said the delay was because the kitchen was too busy. Taking on more covers you can handle is a really poor experience for customers. The food itself was pretty good but adults meals came out before the kids food (every parents’ restaurant nightmare), kids chicken burger was rubbery and fries way too salty for children. Wouldn’t recommend unless you’ve got a lot of time on your hands and don’t have hungry kids to feed.

My class had a reunion event in the back of the restaurant. It was a very nice place to be together in. Although the AC may need to be larger for the space. The appetizers were delicious and the drinks reasonably priced. The staff was very welcoming and accommodating as well. Wheelchair accessibility: Access to the front of the restaurant is possible, the outdoor section had stairs to consider.

Enjoyed a very nice brunch with delicious eggs benedict and drinks. Thought we should come back and try dinner, that was a mistake. Our party had two orders of poutine for an appetizer and it was ridiculously salty. You don't need to salt the fries when you're adding gravy and cheese curds. Short rib "mac and cheese" had about a tablespoons worth of meat and had no flavor. "Cheese" sauce was unbelievably thin and more like milk. The other pasta dish was simultaneously dry and completely drenched in oil. That being said service was good both times. Enjoyable brunch but skip lunch/dinner.

A fork to use for scale. This is the short rib poutine which cost $17. Seven. Teen. Dollars. As another comment writes, there is about a tablespoon of short rib. The plate is not only extremely small itself but it has to be only about $2 worth of ingredients, AND it was extremely salty. Will be speaking to staff giving my criticism. I have never done this before. This has to be the least amount of food I have ever gotten for this amount of money.

Great restaurant. Great food. Great service. Great prices. Great location. They welcomed us in and served us even as they were closing. Also, a pro American restaurant, with a grand American flag on the wall. When all the other restaurants out here are enforcing draconian vaccine passport screening policies, Halverson's stands for the America of yesteryear, of strong values rooted in service, freedom and respect. This is the restaurant for true Americans and liberty lovers everywhere.

We popped in for a night of live music. We did not know that the band was raising money for an 11 year old cancer patient. It was also the 1963 class reunion taking place. We had a fun night and enjoyed the obviously close knit community. The brussel sprouts were phenomenal (maple glazed), but the corn flat bread was not cooked well. Drinks were good. Would recommend if you want to feel like you're not on vacation and grab a sense of real vibe.
