Standish, Minneapolis The Jucy Lucy origin claim (since 1954)

Matt’s Bar

Matt’s opened on Cedar Avenue in 1954 and claims to have invented the Jucy Lucy (their spelling, no "i"). The burger comes out molten in the middle and you will burn your mouth on the first bite. That is the experience. Cash only, no reservations, expect a wait.
