"Legendary walleye restaurant Tavern on Grand, which announced in January that 2024 would be its last year, will serve its final meal on June 2. The Pioneer Press reports that a new restaurant will take its place soon after: Russell’s Bar and Grill is set to open sometime in the fall." - Justine Jones
"The Tav’s famous walleye dinner includes one or two filets cooked to your liking (grilled, deep-fried, or blackened) plus traditional or jalapeno tartar sauce, salad or coleslaw, a choice of potato, and mixed vegetables. The menu also includes a basket with bite-sized breaded and deep-fried walleye, tavern fries, coleslaw, and a choice of traditional or jalapeno tartar sauce." - Stacy Brooks, Eater Staff
