Tavern On Grand

Saint Paul, Minnesota, United States • 6 Employees
Restaurants

"The Tavern on Grand was opened in 1990 by David Wildmo. David was born to Arthur and Norma Wildmo and was raised in Bemidji, Minnesota. That opening year, David convinced state officials to serve his walleye to Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev while he was in the state. In the back hall you will find a portrait of Gorbachev with his birthmark altered to look like the state of Minnesota with a caption that reads "Try the Walleye."The Tavern has been known to serve up to 2,000 pounds of walleye in a week. The walleye was originally purchased from Minnesota commercial fishermen at Red Lake but since the ban on commercial walleye fishing, it has been bought through the Fresh Water Fish Marketing Corporation of Manitoba, Canada. Guests of the Tavern have three choices when it comes to their walleye preparation; grilled, fried or blackened and many regulars like to eat their fillet with jalapeno tartar or béarnaise sauce."
