Usually like clock work every time we travel to Duluth and stay at our "usual" place just down the street...it never fails for us to make a pit stop for lunch or dinner at Angie's! Back in September (2017), we dropped in for dinner. The staff there are mostly college kids but know their restaurant. They are quick, friendly and when things slow down are great "tour guides" for suggesting places to see and visit while in Duluth. The food is very good if you enjoy Tex Mex and the prices reasonably reflect the quality. The drinks...especially their margaritas are amazing! They know how to make them! You will not be disappointed, I never am!! The interior is fun and historical with many old leather saddles, rawhide ropes, woven baskets, old wooden pieces - like a ladder, saddle tree & pottery! There's even an original saddle that belonged to Poncho Villa!! Just remember that usually on the weekends, especially during the summer months they get very busy so plan accordingly if you decide to visit!

Going to Angie's every summer is a tradition for us. Since we missed this (and last) summer, we visited yesterday while in town. It was awful! Starting with having to wipe all the crumbs off the seat in the both we were given. First of all, prices have skyrocketed! You don't even get chips and salsa for free anymore, like you do at every other tex-mex place in the states. So we passed. We ordered coffee to drink. Got one cup, no half and half (they were out) so only flavored creamer. No refills at all even tho we both had our cups at the end of the table and the waiter clearly saw they were empty. No waters either! Since prices are crazy here ($24 for steak fajitas, plus an extra 5 dollars for beans and rice!), we decided to split a meal. The food was delivered to our table by a woman dressed differently than the wait staff, so probably a manager? You know how when you order fajitas they come out hot, sizzling and steaming? None of that happened here. The hot plate was warm, but we touched the steak and it was ice cold! Not lukewarm. COLD. The veggies did not look freshly grilled, but rather as if they'd be sitting. Very watery. We ordered pinto beans, we were given black beans. They were only kind of warm. Rice was a pile of mush, not fresh. We told the waiter and he took the meat and veggies away and brought "new" which was the same plate slightly warmed up. We were given the right beans, but they were barely warm and hard. It was not busy either. Quality here has completely dropped from good to horrible. We were given a slight discount on our bill for the "issue". If this was my restaurant I would have been more generous with the discount, and mortified at what was served. We ate what we could as we hate wasting food. I hope we don't get sick! 2 cups of black coffee was over 8 dollars as well. Ridiculous. We'll never be back or recommend this place, there are way better options in Canal Park.

Have visited Duluth a few times and have been wanting to try Angie’s, finally did and I don’t recommend. I ordered chicken fajitas because it said on the menu it was a “house specialty”. There wasn’t anything really special about them. Chicken was dry and there were 6 small pieces cut up. It seemed like the chicken had been microwaved for the 5th time before serving it. Onions and peppers were good, but it’s not that hard to cook peppers and onions. The food was just very Americanized. If you’re looking for Mexican food, look the other way. I got a side of rice and beans for an extra $3. The beans tasted and looked like they went to the grocery store and bought a can of black beans, dumped them out on the plate, cooked them in the microwave, and served them. The rice was mushy-nothing like Mexican rice-probably because they didn’t fry the rice before adding the water and boiling it. Chipotle has better rice than they did. Margaritas were good, but the food outweighed the drinks. Would recommend if you’re looking to be completely disappointed.also our bill ended up being $86 for a price range for a couple.

I don't like to write bad reviews, but after last week's experience , I thought I should say something. Myself and some out of town guests decided we would stop and give it a try for the first time. I've heard mix reviews about the food at work. We ended up receiving the wrong drinks from the bar. We asked our waiter for some napkins after spilling some salsa and never received them. The black beans were all dried out like they had been sitting in a pot for some time. The rice tasted just like tomatoe paste and rice slapped together. The shrimp fajitas were bland. We had to ask two different servers to get some silverware so we could eat our food after it arrived. During this whole time, our waiter didn't seem to care about us or his other tables much. Just do the bare minimum and dissappear. Overall, it wasn't a good first impression. I understand mistakes get made, and places get busy, but when you normally get seated at a table to get silverware and napkins to start. The chips and queso were very good. We will probably give it a second chance, but not at this moment.

The second i cruised into this establishment i was taken aback by the colorful, animated atmosphere. i was quickly greeted by a bright, yet, cambered young woman who guided me to an unoccupied nook of seating. my order was briskly taken and i patiently perched on my vermillion seat. i was brought my comestibles within minutes. the second i laid my eyes on this sustenance, i knew it would be righteous. not wasting any time, i dug in. foremost, i bit into a potato fry. the exterior was crisp but yielding with a blazing interior. Each bite was a triumph of flavor and texture. i immediately ran to gnaw my burger. the second i began, i was taken aback. This burger transported me back to the summer i spent in 1991 with my great aunt sue. She had perfected the art of the hamburger bun, crafting one that was pillow like in texture, soft and comforting. the bun was pillowly in texture while the meat was a smidgen drab, lacking the exuberance the fries had bestowed upon me. though, i completed this meal with haste, the fried potato rods were the best part.

Good atmosphere lots of food choices but do NOT get the steak it tastes pre-chewed. Portions sizes good and service isn’t anything special but nice.
