doolittles woodfire grill

this is a classy place serving good food. the prices are reasonable for the menu, and the food is well prepared. i have had the woodfired rotisserie chicken, and the gaucho burger. the chicken is cooked on a skewer over an open wood burning rotisserie in full view of the dining area. it is well seasoned and moist with a hearty smoky flavor. the seasoning is rich and fabulous. the breast meat was moist and perfectly cooks as were the dark meats. i had the chicken for lunch and it came with coleslaw that was ok but nothing special, and mashed potato that was creamy and delicious. the gaucho burger is a burger with bacon and guacamole. all the parts of this burger were satisfying. in particular the burger was thick and juicy, and the bun was soft and toasted and added to the flavor of the burger rather than either being a vehicle or distraction from the main event.

people with whom i have dined have had the bbq chicken salad and the cajun chicken pasta. i tasted both and wouldn't hesitate toordereither.

doolittle's does not seem concerned with those counting calories so if you are looking to have a low calorie meal this might not be the place for you. i also didn't notice much in the way of vegetarian options. both these points aside, if you are looking for a good meal at a reasonable price you will not be disappointed at dolittle's.

best chicken anywhere!. we discovered doolittles when we lived in fargo. it was a nice surprise to find a location in golden valley. the management is wonderful and waiters are freindly. we have mentioned on every comment card that we loved the asian shrimp flat bread, but after four years we have resolved ourselves of the fact it will never be served again. the reason to come here is the woodfire chicken with mashed potatos and vegies. we have no idea how they get the vegies to taste so good. the flavor profile is amazing. the chicken is moist and what memories are made of. we have enjoyed burgers, ribs and more, but someone in your party needs toorderchicken to truely appreciate this place. parking is in its own lot and the front door team is always so friendly. the large semi open kitchen is warm on a cold minnesota night. the booths are large and very comfy. enjoy!

amazing woodfire wings !. we go to doolittle's frequently, because it's good food for a good price. if you get there around 6:00 you can usually be seated immediately. we asked to sit 'somewhere warm' and they seated us right in front of the rotisserie! it was an amazing sight, whole chickens and chicken wings going round and round, dripping juices on the blazing wood fire below. by the time we'd finished our martinis (excellent, by the way) i was drooling. we ordered their chicken wings appetizer, and they were amazing--not too spicy, juicy, tender, falling off the bone. i was in heaven. after those i was ready toordera half chicken for my entree, but decided to have the chicken pomodoro instead. what a disappointment! the chicken was flavorful and crunchy but the pasta was bland and pointless. i ate the chicken and left the pasta. my husband had the blue cheese steak, which he enjoyed very much -- cooked to perfection and tender. i was jealous of the slivered root veggies that came with his entree. since it was his birthday, we got a free dessert so we ordered a bread pudding. a huge disappointment--it was dry, with a crunchy texture like they forgot to put the milk in, and had no flavor whatsoever. a waste of calories. the waitress offered to bring us something else but we were too full. our server was very good and made every effort to ensure that experience was enjoyable. decent wine list. they have a parking lot but it's always crowded.
