About This Place

Nestled in Worthington, Minnesota, The Mav Grill stands out as a vibrant destination for those craving a satisfying blend of classic American bar & grill fare combined with a dash of culinary creativity. Whether you're stopping by for a hearty burger, a refreshing cocktail, or a relaxed evening with friends, The Mav Grill delivers an inviting, casual dining atmosphere where comfort meets quality.

Their menu is a treasure trove of hearty flavors and indulgent treats that speak directly to the cravings of every guest. From the moment you dig into their Mav Brunch Burger—a juicy, expertly crafted patty topped with rich and gooey cheese—to the delightfully crisp cheese curds, each bite tells a story of fresh ingredients and dedication to flavor. The Lil'Mav Nachos offer a perfect shareable starter, bubbling with melty cheese and just the right kick to awaken your palate, while the Mav Smoked Wings boast a smoky, savory punch that pairs perfectly with their diverse bourbon and craft beer selections.

Seafood lovers will appreciate the expertly prepared Mahi Mahi and plump Scallops, both dishes balancing freshness and seasoning to tantalize the taste buds without overwhelming them. For those seeking a more adventurous bite, the Rocky Mountain Oysters provide a unique regional specialty that promises a memorable dining experience. Not to be missed is their Half & Half Pizza, a perfectly crisp crust loaded with generous toppings to satisfy even the most discerning pizza aficionado.

The Mav Grill’s broasted chicken options really showcase the kitchen’s attention to texture and flavor. Whether you opt for the tender white or dark meat, each piece is coated in the house's proprietary batter blend and broasted to golden perfection, delivering a crispy exterior and flavorful, juicy inside. Pair these with their choice of sides, like steamed broccoli or their famous sidewinder fries, and you have a meal that truly comforts and satisfies.

The beverage menu complements the culinary offerings perfectly. From classic cocktails like the well-crafted long island iced tea—praised by patrons like Jacob Clater—to premium spirits including Glenfiddich and Blanton’s, the drink list ensures that every sip elevates your dining experience.

Beyond the food, The Mav Grill is celebrated for its warm and attentive service. Guests consistently highlight the friendly, knowledgeable staff who help bring the dining experience to life. DJ Earls, a loyal customer, notes the elevated bar fare and responsive bartenders who make every visit enjoyable. The atmosphere strikes a balance between laid-back bar vibes and a touch of sophistication, making it an ideal spot either for a casual lunch, an evening out with friends, or even a lively weekend brunch.

Whether you're a local or just passing through Worthington, The Mav Grill offers a genuine taste of Midwestern hospitality paired with bold, satisfying flavors that linger long after the last bite. With its diverse menu, excellent drinks, and welcoming vibe, this is much more than your typical bar & grill—it’s a place that invites you to unwind, savor, and return time and again.

    cheese curds were superb and so was my long island iced tea. My club sandwich was okay-- tasted as if it was toasted in a pan (heated through) instead of toasting just the bread so unfortunately all ingredients including the vegetables were hot like the lettuce and tomatoes. Their Mav Burger slaps though and you HAVE to order the sidewinder fries! Will be returning

    I stay at the Holiday Inn across the parking lot from The Mav and have ate here many times. I enjoy their daily specials and attentive bartenders. Food is elevated from your regular bar fare as well. Diverse menu. Autumn is if you can catch her on nights she's working. Great bourbon and craft beer selection as well.

    My brother and I went the MAV Grill for lunch on their opening day! We had a great time and the food was excellent. It was challenging being their first day, but our server did a great job. The wait for the food was totally acceptable and worth it! The food was brought out fresh, not dying in the window. Our server was attentive to our needs. The person who seated us seemed a bit stressed and told us immediately after sitting down to "be patient as it's the first day." I'm still giving this place 5 stars, but I would suggest not ever saying things like that to customers just coming in. It gives the impression of not being confident and already defeated setting a negative vibe for the customer. You guys rock and have nothing to worry about! Keep up the great work! We always find ways to be better, and for the first day, you killed it! :D We'll definitely be back. Can't wait to try the dinner menu! Thanks for choosing Worthington, MN! *UPDATE*...and a good update! I took my wife and children here for dinner this evening. We were greeted very warmly and quickly seated. Our server came and took our drink orders. The dinner menu was filled with great variety. I had the medium ribeye with lobster tail. The steak was cooked perfectly (and believe me, i hardly ever give that rating out freely). The lobster was great with the slated butter sauce. Our appetizers were very good. We enjoyed the calamari and cheese curds. I had a cup of chili which tasted great! My wife had a burger and my kids had some sliders. All of them were very happy and we left filled! I'll add more pics! -josh
