Been going to the Hammond for 34 years and never have had a bad meal or bad service even on very busy evenings.Golden Cadillac drinks are one of the best in the area.Prices and portions are great.
- Pros: Excellent Steak-Wonderful service
- Cons: I haven't found any yet

Where's the Beef?
by class81 at Citysearch
I have been here twice since Christmas because of $50 gift card I received. I will not be visiting again using my own money due to the following:
Poor food quality
Average service
Poor ambiance
The food ordered: Thin cut ribeye, steak sandwich, and queen cut prime rib.
The thin cut ribeye was really on the "thin" side. The taste and preparation was decent, but for the over $10 price I would have expected a little larger cut. The steak sandwich was chewy and lacking on the "sandwich" part. Unless you call one slice of burnt white bread a sandwich.
The queen cut prime rib was 45% edible meat and 55% FAT!
Don't expect much with the cold fries, hash browns or non-existent vegetables either.
The Service was friendly enough, but I would think that one of the supposedly higher class restaurants in Superior that it would have a dress code for their waitresses. An un-tucked shirt with a pair of sweatpants does not make for a classy waitress.
The ambiance was poor due to the delivery method of your order...a rolling cart that doubles for one of the bus tray carts. There are two conveniently (for the workers) placed bus carts in the dining area, one which was approx. 3 feet behind my seat. The waitress takes the plate with the 55% fat and scrapes it into the garbage right behind our table. For us to further enjoy and of course the other patrons? What a system!
This place had its day back in the 70s! This place only survives on locals not expecting more for their money. Anybody that comes from the rest of the world please be warned.
- Pros: Price compared to Duluth steak houses
- Cons: See review

poor service
by kwmcdonald at Citysearch
celebrating mothers 84th birthday. after 1 hour and 30 minute wait for food, several meals were poor. 2 lobsters were cold and raw in middle, my medium steak was well done and dry, the ribs tasted so bad my wife left them. the waitress's were pleasent and friendly.
pros-friendly staff
cons-long wait, bad food
- Pros: friendly service
- Cons: long wait, food either overcooked or undercooked (raw lobster)
