This was our second year hosting a DU banquet at CJ’s Tavern, and once again it was an outstanding experience from start to finish. The banquet room is ideal for our Sportsman-style events—very spacious, well laid out, and perfect for large groups, and raffles without ever feeling cramped. It really allows the event to flow smoothly and keeps everyone comfortable.
Working with Joel was a huge part of why everything went so well. From the initial planning stages all the way through the night of the event, he was professional, responsive, and genuinely easy to work with. He made sure every detail was covered and was always available to answer questions or make adjustments, which took a lot of stress off our plate.
The food was great—hot, well-prepared, and exactly what you want for a banquet setting. (We did the taco bar) Our guests had nothing but positive things to say. Overall, CJ’s Tavern delivers a top-tier banquet experience with a great setup, great food, and great people. We’ll absolutely continue using this space and highly recommend it to anyone looking to host a Sportsman banquet or large event.

This was our first visit and we were excited to check this place out. The atmosphere is nice. The music isn’t overly loud, so you can actually talk and hear the other person. There was plenty of open seating at 5:00 pm on Friday night. Lots of tvs to catch your sports. We ordered the chips and queso app, a burger, and the philly sandwich. The food was really good. Unfortunately, that was not enough to draw us back anytime soon. The service was absolutely horrible. Our app came out with our main dishes. The cheese was luke warm at best and crusted over, showing it had been sitting in the back for some time. Kitchen or service issue, not sure. We had to go to the bar to get more drinks, as our waitress never checked on us. Even then, were ignored by 3 people behind the bar. Unfortunately, we were not the only ones with service issues, and not even the same serever, as we watched several other tables having to do the same. Our waitress never even came back to offer boxes, had to go get our own, and then had to go to the bar to ask for our bill. Pics are of the views from where we were seated. and someone from another table having to go to the bar to get their own drinks.

Beautiful restaurant and bar, so much natural lighting! I can only imagine it in the summer! Sandwich was tasty, love the truffle fries. Never had fries shaped like that, and will be back for sure for them and the service! Owners are kind and attentive and present. Very much a spot I would frequent if I lived in Fargo but will still be back. Thanks again!

Very disappointed in the services. Ordered the Quesadilla, it did not come with the salsa or sour cream. Which is not a big deal. When we kindly asked for it we were lectured that they do not bring it out unless it is asked for as or often gets thrown away. Again not a big deal at all, we had assumed it had just been missed, but his lecturing and tone of voice was extremely very rude, the menu states it is served with those items.
We were also charged for items we did not receive. They were a very small fee and not worth dealing with the angry server to have it correct.
The food was ok. Probably wouldn’t go back.

Awesome hidden gem that opened in Feb this year. had most of their apps 1/2 off special. Kid friendly till 10. Very modern Charge ports under the par and lots of TV’S for the games. Highly recommended.

We were very pleased with CJ‘s Tavern for a rehearsal dinner venue. Jordan, the owner, and Joel, the manager, were easy to work with and helped to make our event memorable. The chicken Alfredo was a great menu choice for our guests, but we were also able to order off the menu for guests who had dietary restrictions. We appreciated being able to bring in our own desserts!!

We had the best time celebrating a military retirement party/ bday party! The space was beautiful, Joel was so helpful in setting up, checking on us and getting us random odds and ends that we needed. They were so flexible with the space and how we wanted to transform it. Dakota was the best bar tender and got us everything we needed. We can’t say enough great things about our experience. Highly recommend!!

We’ve enjoyed several dinners and family gatherings here, and every visit has been a great experience. Booking a spot for our large family is always quick and easy, and the staff couldn’t be friendlier. The food is absolutely delicious, the drinks are always cold and the scenery is beautiful with plenty of open space. Management goes out of their way to check in, which makes us feel truly valued as guests. We’re thrilled to have another fantastic restaurant in Rose Creek and hope it’s here for many years to come. Keep up the amazing work!

We held a birthday party for 18 adults to play bingo, have a few drinks and enjoy lunch together. It was the perfect start to our day. Thank you for hosting!

We are from out of town & choose CJs Tavern to meet up with friends on a week night. Everything was absolutely 5 stars. We had a blast – our server, Maggie, was so wonderful! On top of things, funny, & sweet. We never waited for anything & her bar staff supporting her was also great. The bar is big, open, & clean. It was wing Wednesday & the bone in wings were huge, cooked to perfection . I would come back anytime. Thank you, Maggie for making our night & accommodating our large group. Well done!
