Booths were squishy. We had a party of 4 and it was very tight quarters. Moved to a table. The tables are small and not much room. Food was okay.

We had Borgen's cater our son's wedding. We had their BBQ theme meal and the food was incredible. Heard many guests say it was the best food at any wedding they attended.

They were short-handed on this day. Our waitress was new, so she was a bit behind the eight ball. The food was good, though. I had roast beef and potatoes, and my husband had a burger. The atmosphere was just chaotic because they were so busy and not enough help.

The only reason this restaurant is getting two stars is because the food was decent. The waitress we had was by far one of the worst experiences we’ve ever had. She didn’t ask if we wanted anything to drink with our meals, she didn’t bring us silverware, and she forgot part of both of our meals. The fryers were down when we went, which isn’t their fault, but the waitress was completely unwilling to allow us to substitute anything for French fries other than mashed potatoes or a baked potato. But the table across the room was able to substitute American fries, hash browns, or a baked/mashed potato. The service with this particular waitress was so bad that another table of people walked out before even getting their food. I wish we didn’t spend our money here, and we would have gone somewhere we knew we could have gotten at least decent service.

Stopped for breakfast this morning. Ordered from the menu a few items from the Breakfast Specialities portion. Under the title of this section of the menu the following is stated: "Substitute pancakes for $2 instead of the muffin/toast."

To us, this signifies the muffin or toast come with the items we ordered so the pancake side my husband added to his order should have been $2 and my muffin side (which was burnt to a crisp and unedible by me) should have been no charge. Because I was under the impression it was a no charge side option, I didn't complain about the quality.

Buyers beware: This is not the case. Apparently, there are only 2 items under the Breakfast Specialties (not clearly labeled) that this applies to! When I asked the server about this. He showed me the two items. When I further explained that this is completly confusing (a bait and switch) he didn't care. I told him my muffin was burnt and unedible, he took off the $1.29 for that, but not the $4.99 that we were charged for the pancake side that is advertised as $2. He didn't care that their menu stated otherwise like all other menus at other establishments. When he was displeased with my tip, he didn't even say thank you when taking my receipt and walked away without a word.

We will not return and will not recommend this establishment. I'd leave a zero star review if it were possible. We alerted the owner of the establishment and received a generic, unconcerned reply.

I am a local and the food has been good until the last 2 times I 'very been there with my family. All I could taste was the oil things were fried in and the food was cold like it had been sitting a while. Customers that came in long after us were served their food before us. If we had not asked for a refill on our coffee our waitress would not have given us one. The waitress that waited on us really needs to be more personable with the customers, at least wait on people with a smile instead of making sure we knew she was stressed out. I will never eat there again.

Our food was cold our server was just as cold as the food we got there at 1030am and waited over an hr for our food while people who walked in after us had their food before we did. Then when we let the server know our food was cold did offer to heat it up it would have ruined it even more when we went to pay the bill wasn't asked how our food was or anything. I don't think they cared. Will never come back here again for guest that came 650 miles to visit this was a total disappointment other establishments will get my business. I do.t recommend

We were seated and given 1 menu only. When we asked for another one our server said, "Oh, you need another one?", as if it was a strange request for us both to expect our own menu. Place was clean. Food was okay, but nothing special. We wouldn't recommend this restaurant.

Worst French toast ever...if the crust of bread is what they consider an acceptable plate of food they should embarrassed. My husband ordered a short stack of pancakes and when they arrived with the bread crust for French toast...the pancakes had been made quite awhile before they were brought out to our table. The butter provided to us didn't melt between the pancakes when applied because pancakes were cold. I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone. I can only hope the owners don't let the cook at Borgen's anywhere near Old Town or they can lock the doors now

The beautiful changes the family has made to the restaurant I have told to Blaine in person on several occasions. He took me down the hall to show how much Borgens had changed throughout the years. I always recommend people to eat here. You won't regret it.

We had Borgens cater our wedding and that was the best decision we have ever made! I have ate at Borgens many times and always loved their food. When searching for a caterer, Borgens was always at the top of our list. Their prices were amazing and great to work with. Growing up with Norwegian families, we were so excited to have lefse at our wedding to go with the meatballs, mashed potatoes, and gravy. Everyone raved for weeks after about the honey glazed chicken. We even got to pick up our leftovers the next morning, which was a huge plus because I did not want all the extra food to go to waste and we divided it up among our families.
