"I have gone to JJ Astors twice in my life and regretted it both times. The first time, the fish was undercooked so we sent it back. They brought out the same piece of fish after trying to reconcile their first mess up. The second time the fish came out, it again was slimy and undercooked. I made the mistake of giving JJ Astor a second chance. The second time, the food came out extremely undercooked and the waitress was awful. The chicken was slimy and purple on the inside. We ended up trying a couple bites of the chicken but had to send it back due to the scare of getting sick. Our waitress had an attitude the entire time and messed up our drink order multiple times. I ordered an old fashioned but ended up getting a clearly shaken Manhattan. SHAKEN Manhattan. Not only was the drink incorrect but they also broke the golden rule of a Manhattan must always be stirred, not shaken. I also ordered a glass of Pinot Noir; however, I never got my glass of wine. I ended up asking for my glass of wine a second time, but it still never showed up. Finally, we ordered a piece of cheesecake because of how hungry we still were due to the horrible quality of our entrees. We ate about 3 bites of the cheesecake and couldn 't eat anymore. It was dry and unflavorful. I have tasted more moist and flavorful sand on the beach than this cheesecake. The only enjoyable part of dinner was the view over all of Duluth. However, I would highly recommend going up to Enger Tower to get a great view of Duluth instead of paying for an extremely overpriced meal that isn 't even as tasty as McDonalds. I will never go back to JJ Astor ever again as I have never been more disappointed in a restaurant in my life. Never would I ever recommend this horrifying excuse for a nice restaurant to my worst enemy, let alone anyone I actually like. Go at your own risk."
