I just assumed that place was going to suck because 1) It is JT Cigarros and 2) I saw a menu posted on their Facebook page when they first opened and it was so full of misspellings and lame descriptions of their supposed 'upscale yet accessible' food I laughed while reading through it.
When I read the first couple articles about the sale of that place and the restaurant opening I gave it about 6 months before they just open up the restaurant for more bar room.
I have not been to Sickies, mostly because I am never anywhere near that part of town. I have wanted to try it and will go at some point. The reason I like JL Beers is it is one of the few places in Fargo that I don't feel like I am in yet another Fargo bar or restaurant, it reminds me of Brooklyn.
I get that feeling especially at the downtown location. The price is right for their food as well. Sickies must have opened after i left FM because i have never heard of it.

I like JL also but Sickies is better, plus it's a gear head type place it's nothing typical to Fargo either. give them a shot you will enjoy. it's a great change of pace from JL just because the many different oddball burgers they offer that are really good. I highly recommend the Benedict or Cuban burgers

popped my sickies cherry tonight.
lots of beer. we had the jalepeno cheese curds with the jap popper sauce(tastes like berries)...never had that combo but was surprisingly good.
chili burger was probably a 6/10...first chili burger ive ever had where they didnt cover the entire bun with chili..just the burger part. disappointed me a little. Ill be back to try something else tho

Ill maybe eat at JL beers once a year. id go back to sickies first. I hate the stupid "cute" 49 total people can eat here. i aint waiting 20 minutes so 4 people can open up room at the bar because theyre finally done.
