Kroll’s Diner

Had lunch there on Saturday. My wife had club sandwich my daughter had the child Burger and fries. I had knephia soup with real milkshakes. I really suggest going for this soup with homemaker dumplings. It was real good.. The milkshakes were so good and so big I couldn’t even finish it. For a little diner the staff were very friendly and good. We wanted to go there for Sunday breakfast but found a lineup out the door. We should of got in to the lineup. As the outcome was going to another place with disappointment. Next we will wait in line for good service and food Kroll’s.

In town on business. Was recommended. Ok food. Had the fleischkuechle breakfast. Sausage, egg, and cheese in fried dough.
They call Minot «The Magic City». I understand why. After eating fleischkuechle, strokes, heart attacks, and diabetes magically appear. #undercovercalifornian

Overpriced for what you get except for the knoephla soup, do yourself a favor and go across the street to the truck stop.

I used to love this place, but recently the food has gone downhill in a HUGE way. The burgers I got the last 2 times here have both tasted like they were the hockey pucks you get at large bbq events. You know the type dry and overdone that were finished cooking left to sit in oil for at least an hour. Only difference is this is not a bbq event where socialization is the point and it is not free.
Figured the first bad experience was a fluke after such great food in the past so I ventured another go with the same terrible results. Talked with some other people and they feel the same way this once great place is now bottom of my places to get a burger in minot.

Classic diner with great food. Loved our breakfast, which we ordered at dinner time. Order from the German menu for some real treats, but good food all around.

Really cool old school diner with the stainless steel exterior and classic diner interior. The service was good immediately the waitress was at the table in a second with hot coffee and water. Good, greasy, home cooked breakfast. I heard that it was featured on Diners, Drive-​Ins, and Dives show that is on the Travel Channel (?). I haven’t seen that episode of the show but I am guessing they featured the Knoephla’s. I have never heard of knoephla before going here but they looked pretty good to me. Will have to try them next time.

This place did not disappoint. I was looking forward to eating at Kroll’s during my visit from California. Great customer service and delicious food. Would definitely recommend the homemade knoephla soup and they have a great lunch deal for under $ 6! Nostalgic décor and an overall great experience. Would make this a habit every time I visit Minot.

I have eaten at Kroll’s for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I have been happy with every meal. The staff is awesome! They are the real reason for the 5 star rating. They go out of their way to make sure you’re happy before leaving. Kids love it because they can get breakfast all day everyday. I love it because it’s the closest I can get to a home cooked meal.

I’ve only had breakfast here and it’s always awesome. The 6 egg omelet kicked my butt. The biscuits and gravy is good. Fresh sausage and bacon. One day I will eat dinner there. I hope it’s every bit as good as breakfast.

Cabbage Rolls Corn Mashed Potatoes Rolls — all just like my mother-​in-​law made — made for good feelings! The Knoephla soup is very good but not servered hot enough! Rest of menu American comfort food and German looked very good. Next time in town will definitely visit again.

Service and the milkshake I got to go was great, which is why I gave it 3 stars.
Food was okay at best. Me being from the south might play part of that. The gravy had that bland out of a can taste, the sausage tasted more like some kind of pork jerky, and still wondering if the biscuits wasn’t made with pancake batter, they were thin and sweet and kinda smelled like a pancake. Luckily the eggs and hash browns was good.
After hearing some of the other customers saying how good this and that was, I am willing to give it another shot. If you are use to southern breakfast food, I would not suggest going here.

Predictable diner fare. Always like the meal and the wait staff really know what they are doing.

This place is an average small diner. It is nothing fancy. It has OK food and a really cool retro atmosphere. It is a small space so if there are a lot of people it will feel crowded. I had the Frisco Burger. It was okay, but it paled in comparison with a Steak n’ Shake Frisco Melt, so unfortunately that was all I was thinking about while eating it.

What can I say? I love this place! Their milkshakes are on point and their hash browns are perfection! Their service is good and they’re really nice. We’re glad we found this place because it’s so delicious! Breakfast dinner foods FTW!

Here for breakfast and can I say wow you get your money’s worth!!! Try the German omelet it’s delicious. Would give 5 stars but the orange juice was really sweet. I know I’m a tough critic lol

Two stars only because the food was great!
This was by far the worst dining experience I’ve ever had. Our waitress was obviously unhappy to have to serve the only African Americans in the restaurant. We had to wait about 10 for her to greet us another 15 mins for an oj. Two tables came after us but all of them were served before us and treated with great respect. Its very sad that people like our waitress still exists. If I ever come here again it will be a to go order only. Its 2014 leave your racist ways at home.

Fun laid back location. Staff are down to earth and friendly. Not a corporate contrived atmosphere, simply good people serving good food.
Expect tasty food that is going to blow any calorie calculators mind so just leave that at home.
I had the Cajun Burger melt. Good flavour. Great spice. Average size and a bit greasy. The banana shakes are scooped ice-​cream with real banana. VERY tasty!
Coffee is like tea, very weak.
Fun place for an occasional diversion.

A huge breakfast for the money. Old school feel, and great service. What a diner should be! It’s on the outskirts of town, but well worth the search.

It’s diner food, so don’t expect fine dining, but it is really good for a diner.
It’s also a chain; but it’s a family owned chain and at least at this location they do seem to take pride in their work. (I haven’t visited other Krolls to compare)
The atmosphere is pleasant, it’s a modernized version of a 50’s or 60s style diner car (read as: cleaner and with more signs, photos and memorabilia on the walls)
The food selection is about what you would expect from a diner; the usual list of breakfast omelets, burgers, sandwiches and a few complete meals. But the quality is on the higher end for a diner, the breakfasts are well done (one of the options is a fresh made sausage) and a hearty portion size.
I’ve eaten here a few times and the best things on the menu tend to be the German inspired dishes (I won’t even attempt to spell them, but you won’t have a hard time figuring out what I’m talking about). I can’t tell you if they are authentic, but they certainly are pretty tasty.
We’ve definitely tried to make this a regular stop for breakfast or lunch; for whatever reason I don’t quite find the place as attractive an option for dinner. That could just be me though, the type of food they serve there just strikes me as lunch (though some of the portions are big for a lunch). Not that it really matters, the entire menu is available all day long so you can any type of meal they serve so long as they are open. I’ve been happy to go there at 9 am and order a burger and onion rings (which are really good) and than go back at 8pm and order an omelet.
If I have one complaint its that some of the food runs towards slightly bland, but this is easily solved with a dose of black pepper at the table which really brings out the flavors in their soups and sauces. Than again I’ve seen that issue before with German cuisine at other restaurants so maybe it’s just my palette’s response to German food; it just seems to need a touch more pepper no matter where I get it.

November 25, 2011 Friday — dinner 6:15 PM
One adult and myself
Atmosphere — 4 stars
Food — 5 stars
Service — 5 stars
Background — Drove by it on the way to thanksgiving dinner and thought it looked like a great dinner.
Atmosphere — A diner with a maybe 8 bar stools to sit at the counter, about the same number of booths with a handful of standalone tables. I will ding them for the booth we sat in as the one bench had a big rip in it. It did not even have a patch job of some duct tape on it, just a huge gaping hole. Who would want to sit there? But I was surprised to see a sign for Food Network for the best place to eat in the 50 states for breakfast, I posted a picture of it.
Food
Appetizer — I had to Knoephla soup. It became addicted to this while living in Grand Forks ND while going to college. This is the best way I can describe it so here is the wiki link.
Main Course — I had the Beef Fleschkuechle, this is another German dish which I sadly say I have never had before. The menu described it as a seasoned hamburger patty wrapped in dough and deep fried. The outside of the dough was flaky while the inside was moist.
Dessert — We spilt a milk shake for dinner, they offer a lot of flavors and we mixed two of them. The cappuccino and caramel mixed with that ice cream topped with whipped cream made for a perfect sweet treat.
Service — Greeted when we entered and told to sit were we wanted. I waitress was prompt and friendly and food was timed perfectly and had little wait time between the appetizer and main course.
Future — I would love to come back for that breakfast item the Food Network mentioned.
