Tradition - Midwest Menus

Tradition
In 1934 the Cherokee Café, a small bar and restaurant seating sixty patrons, opened its doors on Smith and
Annapolis; Bob and Dorothy Casper purchased that restaurant in 1970 and called it Caspers’ Cherokee Sirloin
Room. Their dedication and personal involvement in offering the very best value for food and spirits, plus
friendly service, continually added loyal customers, necessitating expansions in 1977, 1979, 1981 and 1997.
In 1987 the Casper brothers purchased the Cherokee Sirloin Room and have continued
the traditions that were established during the formative and growing years when their parents owned and
operated the popular West Side restaurant.
In 1991 we opened another Cherokee in Eagan. In 1997 we made a major expansion and revamping of the
West Side Cherokee Sirloin Room, and in 2001 we did extensive remodeling and added an outside upper deck
and lower level screened in patio at our Eagan restaurant. We are making every effort to ensure that your
visit to either location will be most enjoyable and bring you back again and again.
We thank you for being our guest and giving us the opportunity to serve you.

Fill this place, oh Lord, we pray, with blessings from above, but most of all
we humbly ask that it be filled with love. May those who spend some time
with us find cheerfulness inside, and Lord please may our hearts and minds
be always open wide. May all who gather ‘round our hearth find welcome
glowing there – warmth and friendship, food and drink for families, friends
to share. So bless this place and bless each one who steps within our door, and
may all find beneath our roof all they expect... and more!

Party likes it’s 1935 again! During the 20s and 30s, the Chicago mob would head north to Wisconsin and Minnesota to
avoid the heat of the city. They’d hole up in some of the great chop houses and relax. Now you can relive some of those days
with 20 of your closest friends and family. The Gangster Holiday is prime rib for everyone, plus a side of your choice of
pasta, salad, soup, dessert and our famous onion rings, and a bottle of Sheep Dip Whiskey, all in a private room with your
favorite gangster movie playing in the background. Cap it all off with a limo ride tour of gangster houses and hide-outs.
Please make reservations at least one month in advance. $1,499.00.
