    Don't be scared of the big security door here and the regulars smoking on the patio. This is a very welcoming little nordeast bar. The two main bartenders have been here forever and they know what they're doing and they do it well. Aside from the friendly yet unobtrusive service, the dagos are the star of the show. A dago is a sausage patty with roasted peppers, topped with mozzarella on the softest pillow of a bun. The multitasking bartender serves you your beer and fries up your dago. You will eat it and immediately wish you had another. Get the creamy Minnesota potato salad and the dill pickle chips. Man. So so tasty. They have live music on the weekends and a meat raffle on Fridays. Do you really need more than a meat raffle, hockey on the tube and the sausagy goodness of a dagp on a cold Minnesota night? Nope.

    Dusty's is a cool, old school, working class Polish owned bar in NE. They are known for their bar food, and they should be, as it is solid and affordable. The famous Dago is tasty, and I opt for the one with additional beef, with house potatoes salad. However, Dusty's is not for everyone, as my last visit on a date, she was less than thrilled with the food. But we chatted with owner, and he makes some mean cocktails, along with being friendly.

    On a recent vacation to town we found we could not resist the enticing sign advertising dagos. The Internet unsurprisingly informs us "dagos" may refer to any italian food, and from the drive-by Dusty's looked like it would not disappoint. Their "dago" is an italian sausage sandwich (the sausage formed into a patty, burger style) and was delicious. The bar itself was your typical cozy neighborhood bar. The staff and other patrons were friendly. The prices were low. The beer selection was 5-10 choices. The place was clean. Dusty's provided a couple of out-of-towners an opportunity to enjoy an evening out among locals.

    Loved every second of this place, from even before entering the bar and overhearing a group leaving saying "let's get out of here before the hipsters start coming", because yes my Banana Republic coat screams hipster. Honestly, NE is more true hipster than anywhere else in Minneapolis. Despite this comment, Dusty's was very pleasant. This was the perfect pit stop on a brewery crawl with Eric S., Sara W., and a couple other friends on a Friday night. The crowd was small and mellow, it was definitely worth going the few extra blocks instead of being stuck for hours waiting in Anchor Fish & Chips for a spot. We comfortably sat at the bar and ordered the signature Dagos. I had the Dago Egg & Cheese with chips. The homemade sausage was to die for, the perfect amount of seasonings with a little bite of spice. It was the definition of the perfect bar food. My only complaint is that the sandwich was a little dry for my liking. I added ketchup but there was only so much I could put on before taking away from the taste. Also loved that another customer ordered strange vodka, pretty sure it was just for sipping. Dusty's is a little off the main path of the NE bars but it's worth the trip.

    Dusty's is allright. Had a not-so-mixed crowd, mostly buttoned shirts and collars I'm guessing just off from the office, and not too busy. That's probably a good thing because the bartender was also doubling as the cook and running between the bar and the kitchen: props to her. Of course, I wasn't going to get service of the friendly chatty variety in such a scenario, but I did get my beers real quick. Perhaps next time I'll need to get a dago and potato salad.

    Just rocked down a take-out Dago "Works" and potato salad... Damn fine sammich - that's all I can really say. And for less than $6! Our company recently moved to the area and we're starting to explore our lunch options - In Billboard magazine parlance, Dusty's is moving up the charts with a bullet. We'll definitely be ordering more dagos from Dusty's. I can't speak for the inside of the joint - I sat at my desk and a co-worker grabbed take-out. From what I understand it was pretty dark and just a few "regulars" were hanging at the bar. Regardless, more Dusty's Dagos for me, please!

    Dusty's is what I love about NE. It is what it is, and if you don't like it, you can go elsewhere. The works Dago is great, and I'm a slut for anything with sausage in it (heh) AND THIS IS A SAMMICH WITH A PATTY ENTIRELY MADE OF IT. *drools* With melty grilled onions and peppers + cheese, I can easily crush 2 of these bad boys without blinking an eye. Yeah, don't judge me until you've tried one. Pleasant surprise to find a pretty awesome 3 piece band jammin out in there, which made for a kind of awkward seating shuffle bc they were smack dab in the middle of the bar seating floor space... There was a group of like 10 of us who showed up, which they handled with ease and grace. Food came swift and delicious, and our pint glasses never had a chance to run dry. Fairly certain that the ladies bathroom is no where near any sort of ADA standards, which is only an issue for me when I'm stuffed to the gills with Nordeast and Dagos. But that awkward bathroom just endears this place to me - if you gotta pee you gotta work for it. This is a great place to come, chillax, and eat some good ol' NE bar fair and drink on the cheap.

    For real dive bar. Cheap beer. Limited food that is exactly as good as it needs to be. Actual old school Nordeast regulars and an atmosphere straight out of the early 80s. Exactly what a dive bar should be. Expect nothing more.

  • Alan E.

    This bar epitomizes Nordeast Minneapolis. It attracts all crowds: the softball team, the hip biking kids, the 2nd and 3rd shift employees, Twins fans, music fans, artists, and everything in between. It's a dive, but it's your dive. You. Your dive bar. That's how you feel. But there's more: -There are plenty of crannies for you and your crew to crawl into despite it's somewhat-cramped size. All tables feel far enough away from the rest of the patrons. Unless you want to meet some new friends. Honestly, it's a great place to meet your neighbors. -The selection is nice. Fulton, Boom Island, great stuff. Although, sometimes you just want a Grain Belt. Oh, you'll get one. Because you're across the street from the old brewery. -The same bartenders are there every night and they are very sweet. They treat you right. -The live music is a nice touch on the weekend evenings. Rock, blues, etc. It's quite good, but some nights you aren't in the mood. Their side patio is perfect for those kind of nights. It's essentially a nice alley, but it's big enough for your group and pleasant for a chilled-out night. -THOSE DAMN DAGOS ARE INCREDIBLE! Be sure to settle into a couple of pints at this place. It's no looker, but I think you might find it to be as cozy as I do. If you are in the neighborhood, give this place some love, because it'll give you it right back.

    Dusty's is a GEM!! When I think of NE I think of places like Dusty's. It's a bar that feels like a bar. It's very clean and offers great food and tap options. The DAGOS are awesome. The works dago is my favorite. Its a cheeseburger style philly with italian sausage as the meat. hard to explain... just get it! The cheesburgers and potato salad are also very good. The taps include Fulton, Surly, Grain Belt, Summit and Goose Island. Pretty great list for a neighborhood bar. You can get a tap beer and a Dago for $10. Throw in some pull tabs and a comfortable atmostphere and you have my favorite dive in NE.

    We went here to see BobKat and what a delightful little hole-in-the-wall bar that you'd find somewhere in rural Wisconsin right here in Minneapolis. If you're looking for a bar that's upscale and modern, this is not your place! But if you want a dark bar you think you'd have to drive 200 miles north to get to, stop on in. Good beer selection with a lot of local beers!

    "What the hell is a dago?" This was the burning question that led me to Dusty's last Friday night. Having grown up in NE prior to the arts/lofts/hipster demographic laying claim to the area, Dusty's is a desert oasis with lots of old-school regulars here, with a cozy feel and attentive bartender. The retired horseshoe-haired Teamsters and their wives were straight up 1992. I loved it. While Dusty's potato salad is deliciously fresh, The Works (mozzarella, fried onions, and green peppers) dago was just "ai'ight" -- the bland lump of a sausage patty is keeping it from being a re-order for me. Still, when in NE and in the mood for a few beers and/or a quick bite, this would be my first stop. Definitely trying one of their homemade soups next time! Side note, I'm not sure if the bartender (who also doubled as the cook) was the owner, but he was sure hustling like it. My dining partner and I were checked on a few times even as the bar had about 25 people in it, with only him at the reins. Awesome service.

    It's my favorite bar in northeast. The bartenders are friendly, the jukebox is fun, and if you haven't had a dago before please stop what you are doing and order a "dago works." The soups are made in house and there is a tortellini one that is so so good. It's more of a neighborhood bar, and they have live music from time to time. Doesn't disappoint if you are looking for a chill night and good conversation with friends or other patrons.

    I've passed this place most of my life and have seen the sign boasting "hot dagos and liquor" for years. Finally decided to give it a try. The bar is pretty small, and nothing fancy. Once inside, you get the distinct impression that everything that's there has been there for a long time, and that very little has changed. It's a neighborhood joint, so if you're not a regular, you might feel a little out of place. The service is friendly, though, and no one will chase you out. In case you're wondering, a "dago" is a sandwich made of an Italian sausage patty, peppers, cheese and tomato sauce on a roll. I had a cheeseburger, which was satisfying, with a side of potato chips. Nothing fancy. Nothing wrong with that.

    I had been planning to go in here for a while and finally did on a relaxed date with my bf. I had a California Dago and added an egg. We both had a cup of their homemade soup ( taco and chicken tortellini pesto) to start as well and it was delicious. I have heard they get good bands there too, though there wasn't when we went in on a mon night, but i would love to go back for another dago, great priced beers, and a clean northeast dive bar atmosphere. Bar tender was super friendly and it reminded me of my favorite small town bars back home.

  • Scott B.

    Gotta stop here to get the Dago. Probably one of the finest sandwiches I've eaten in a small bar. It's kind of like going to your friends basement in the 70's, small, clean and a good place for eats and a drink. BTW they have some great bands playing here. Cozy and fun!

    Best for a great Sunday night snack.... Drinks rock and the soups are even better..... My favorite watering hole on a Sunday night ... It's fun conversation and lots of local color.

    Went to Dusty's last week for the first time. Great neighborhood bar with very friendly and helpful service. I think the bartender was serving drinks and also cooking. I ordered the Hot Dago with the egg and cheese and being Italian and also being from St. Paul, I also expected it to be smothered in red sauce. The Hot Dago came to the table and I was surprised but it turned out to be a nice change of pace. I will definitely go back as this place has a really cool vibe.

    I'm from Kansas City and found Dusty's at the recommendation of a couple of customers at what was then Stand up Frank's. It was lunchtime on a Saturday. The bar was pretty busy so we sat at at the only open table and the smell of Dago Burgers was mouthwatering. As an ATM was noisily installed nearby we played pull tabs (and lost) while waiting for our food. Which did take a little while since it was so busy. It was well worth the wait. Dago Burgers are INCREDIBLE! We needed to be hungrier so we could have eaten more. I'll definitely be back next time I'm in town.

    This is a Nordeast bar if there ever was one. I loved it. There was practically no one in there when we arrived, but we still enjoyed Dusty's inside and out. Their awkwardly placed live band (right in the middle of the room) playing really solid Dolly Parton covers was the highlight of the night! The patio is surprisingly lovely with lights strung up. The bathroom is one of the narrowest I've ever seen. Our group had a fantastic time drinking beer and just chilling for a while. My only regret is not being hungry enough to get a the famous Dago.

    A great neighborhood tavern. Very clean. Friendly. I'm a big fan of the Dago, Egg & Cheese sandwich, a bargain at $5.00. Bonus: free wi-fi. A lot of the Yelp info on Dusty's is incorrect. It'is open on Sundays from 10am-11pm, there is outdoor seating, they accept credit cards now, and they have live music on Thurs, Fri, Sat.

    Dusty's is the heart of Nordeast, I love this place. The soup is delicious and homemade with love, if you see chicken tortellini pesto you must order it. Potato salad is legit and you can't go wrong with a Dago works. The best day of my life was the day they brought back Pac-Man.

    Great place...reminds me of the small town pub feeling. Clearly a locals bar, but everyone was nice (sometimes you can get the 'look' as a stranger walking in). However while it has that old time feeling, they still upgraded to HDTV's and know enough to use a HD signal instead of 'just digital'. Frendly staff and clean, simple bar menu. Enjoyed my first 'Dago' (ground pork sausage burger) & the potato salad was excellent. Only wish I could replicate this same pub in the suburbs so I could be a regular!

    This is what the city and the local neighborhood bar is all about. Find me a place in the Burbs where you can walk in and feel at home, enter the meat raffle and have a Dago with your beer. The Dago's are really good, spicy meat burger like thing. Chase it down with a tap beer and life is pretty damn good. Good feel and a nice place for lunch on a Sat. or happy hour on a Friday night.

    Quintessential Nordeast bar. Quirky little nook with live music most nights. Service is friendlier towards locals, but don't let it turn you off. Drinks are strong, the clientele is mostly local and always friendly. Great place to read a book. Meat raffle on Friday.

    Dusty's bar proudly proclaims it serves Hot Dagos. Being from the East Side of St. Paul, I grew up eating Hot Dagos at Yarusso Brothers and Mama's. However, a St. Paul and Minneapolis Dago are completely different. In St. Paul, it is basically pasta and bread in red tomato sauce with Italian sausage and cheese. In Minneapolis it is like a cheeseburger but made with Italian Sausage with roasted red pepper, cheese, onion, mushrooms, eggs or any combination of the above. They also serve Polish dogs, and other bar food. It is all pretty cheap, the Dago sandwiches are all around $4.50. They have an outdoor patio and a pretty small bar with a mostly older crowd. I stopped in on Saturday night around 10 and it was filled with regulars, nearly all over 40 years old, and quite a few people in their 60's. The bar itself is pretty cool, dive bar with a North woods feel. There was an awesome Irish folk band playing. Most Irish bands over exaggerate the accent and play only a few well known songs. These guys were not like most Irish folk bands, they were enjoyable to listen to. They loose a point because when asked what comes on the egg and cheese Dago sandwich, the bartender said just what the menu says. The menu said it comes with egg and cheese, no mention of the Italian sausage. (I guess this was implied) Being from St. Paul, I told my date that a Dago is a pasta dish so we assumed it would only come with egg and cheese with pasta and sauce. She doesn't eat meat and was starving as it was 10 p.m. and this was our dinner. She was so hungry, she nearly cried when the meal arrived with sausage. Long story short, I had to eat 2 Dago sandwiches very quickly and we had to cruise over to the Marina, the closest late night spot to make quick food.
