Psycho Suzi's Motor Lounge has been on my Minnesota bucket list for a while now. So when my bestie and I were seeking a place for lunch, we knew just the place.
I gotta say: I'm PSYCHO for Psycho Suzi's!
Now that I have that off my chest, let's talk about why:
AMBIANCE & LOCATION: This is where they really crush it. So Psycho Suzi's Motor Lounge is a tikki bar. They offer up a wide variety of tikki inspired cocktails, apps, pizzas, and sandwiches. They're located on the shore of the Mississippi River and the patio offers some epic riverfront views. We spent our visit soaking up the summer sun while the tikki carvings watched from about. Inside exudes a 70's lounge type vibe. With swanky booths, tikki carvings, dim lighting, and string lights what more could you ask for?
DRINKS: We both were seeking something fruity and fun. We ordered the Mai Tai: fresh squeezed lime, amber rum, house-made orgeat, pineapple, Curacao, and a dark Jamaican rum float. So... It was not the most picture worthy of beverages given its murky coloring, but boy howdy was that a strong drink! I was a little bummed to see the drinks weren't served in the fun tikki glasses you would expect; I'm sure they would be stolen like all the time. They do have them available for purchase though!
EATS: YUM! Just yum! We started off with an order of the Nordeast Cheese Curds. They were perfectly beer battered, crispy fried, and served up with their house marinara. Then we chose to split the Thailand island pizza: roasted chicken, pineapple, basil, scallions, green pepper, Thai chili, pickled carrots, and spicy organic peanut sauce. The pizza was perfectly baked with a thinner type crust. Loved the flavors! We also had a fennel sausage and peppers sub that was delicious! Def a great shareable menu!
SERVICE: While our interactions with the waitstaff were infrequent, the times we did were great! When our pizza came out, the server complimented our selection; it was clearly a favorite of his.
Psycho Suzi's Motor Lounge was def a hit. I'd love to come back and check out more of their menu and soak up some sun on that spacious patio.
**Pro Tip: Looking for brunch?! It's served Saturday and Sunday from 10 am to 2 pm. Def will be coming back for that!
**Noteworthy: There is a photobooth in the lobby. You have to pay at the bar to get a ticket from the bar to use it. Unfortunately, we were already heading to our next destination - so we skipped it this time.
