Crazy about Psyco Suzi's

Like most large cities, Minneapolis offers quite a few places to go enjoy some food or a drink. For me, it was a 350 mile drive and I wanted to make the most of it. Before heading out, I checked the internet for burger joints in the metro area. Suzie's popped up.
A match made in heaven. I love all things Tiki (most) and they have a decent list of burgers to boot! Even more interesting/challenging is the fact that the online reviews were all over the chart.
Time to see for myself.
Snuggled in the warehouse district and backed up against the Mississippi river, Suzie's Motor Lounge has an instant cool vibe.
I was greeted by two people that gave me the lay of the land. Lower lounge, upper lounge and two decks. I was by myself so I headed to the deck on the lower level. There is a seating area that runs the edge of the deck on the railing. Bonus, I had a perfect view of the river.
First order, a Mai Tai. The burger was simple "I'll have the Suzi Burger".
The burger came cooked perfect, just a little pink. First bite, flavors abound. It's almost a bit of a "heat" effect. The herb butter and caramelized onion combine and mellow together. I had the red pepper mayo on the side but found that it went great with all the other components. Tater tots complete the order.
The whole scene was well done. If you are looking for a bright, all corners are 90 degrees kind of place, don't stop here. If you want to do some crowd watching, spend a little cash and get a decent burger swing on through.
Prices were average to high. Normally, I would have sticker shock. I just enjoyed the staff and watching the river go by.
4 of 5.
Pricey yes. Service was responsive even when busy (super busy because there was also an artwalk that night) Burger was a special treat. I haven't had a burger with such punch. I'm inspired to try the herb butter treatment at home.
