Famous Jucy Lucy of Matt's Bar and Grill @ Minneapolis, Minnesota

Matt's is a local institution in Minneapolis which is famous for their cheese stuffed patty burger named Jucy Lucy. The cheese inside the patty were melted and boiling hot. The server will always warn their customer to let the burger cool down first before eating. I enjoyed the sound system in this restaurant as the quality were so good. The restaurant visited by President Obama before.

Taste:8/10(Good. The molten cheese inside the patty blends well with onion and pepper. Good taste. However, I not quite like the burned part of the patty).
Price:6/10(Moderate. Cash only establishment. Jucy Lucy at USD6.95, half order at USD4.25 and beer at USD4.75).
