“Great drinks Good Food & Service”

“We recently got married (October 2024) and Lake Elmo Inn catererd our wedding. It was absolutely AMAZING! We had the prime rib carving station and the walleye as well as the duck soup and salad. Our guests are still talking about the food. We decided to upgrade to the "LEI Experience" which means each of your guests get a warm hand towel, an intermezzo sorbet, and a chocolate covered strawberry!!! We were over the moon with the service on the night of the wedding and all our communication with LEI throughout the process. Special shoutout to Kayla G. who was the most patient, professional, and kind event manager! She answered every single one of my (many) questions and she did so with a smile! On the night of the wedding, we were SO impressed with how fast the servers were able to get to each of our guest tables and keep the flow going. It was seamless, seriously. We cannot recommend Lake Elmo Inn Catering enough. They've total pro's and just know that you'll be in good hands. Thank you again to everyone on the team for your hard work to make the dream come true!! <3”

“We always enjoy the joyful atmosphere & the food is incredible but the service is like have a personal chef. Always very knowledgeable on the menu. We have known Star for a few years from Marx & was pleasantly happy to be able to see her continue with what she knows best. Always such a joy to see her. All of the servers have been super friendly & we will continue to support them.”

“I try to stop here whenever I have time to do so. Me and my wife have tried multiple dishes and have yet to find one that was disappointing. The owners are amazingly kind people and the restaurant itself is one of the cleanest/tidy I have ever been in.

You will not be disappointed if you stop in. I recommend the stir fry beef ramen, it's my personal favorite.”

“Excellent service friendly people good food. Came for my birthday and I’ll definitely be back again. Thank you!”

“My girlfriend and I recently checked out Post American Eatery for the first time and had an awesome experience! The atmosphere was really cool and relaxed, and the staff was incredibly friendly. My girlfriend ordered the Beef Ragu and loved it! The meat was super tender, and the sauce was just right. I went for the Prime Rib special, and it was delicious – cooked perfectly and packed with flavor. Our server was great, too – really helpful and laid-back. We're definitely looking forward to coming back and trying more dishes. If you're looking for a place with great food, a cool vibe, and excellent service, I'd highly recommend giving Post American Eatery a try. We had a fantastic time and can't wait to go back!”

“This is the second time I’ve ordered a cake from St.Croix Bakery. I spoke to Charles
(the owner) a few times now and every time I see him, he’s always welcoming and happy. Last year they did a cake for my wife and I was delighted by the cake and its taste.
It was that time of year again and this time I was honored to meet their very skilled and talented Bakery Chef McKenna. She cared about what I wanted and stuck to what I asked. From the taste and texture, to the size and portion, I was absolutely blown away by the dedication and effort to bring this on time for my wife. My wife too, was in love with the cake. We brought the cake to Olio restaurant and the staff and people at other tables were in awe.

I would highly recommended St.Croix Bakery to anyone who needs a well tasting desserts and treats especially if you are glutted free!

“Ice cream was delicious and it’s fun to sit about with your treats and play bags with the family in front of the bright cow painted garage. Cutesy kitschy sweet.”

“Amazing food and service. The food never disappoints (love the brisket and Memphis style) and I cannot get enough of the Chicago blue sauce. Always worth the stop in.”

“Excellent pizza and cheesesteak sandwiches! Kids loved it as well! Food was ready quickly and staff was very friendly. My faves are the Spicy Tono, South Philly and Truffle Fries. Everything was delicious!”

“We made a reservation for my parents 40th anniversary as a group of 8, service and food was absolutely amazing! Out of the 8 of us it was 6 of our first time there and we said we’d be back! Highly recommend for a special event, date night or just a good meal! Wishing Olio the very best!”

“Why have we waited so long to come back here?! Food and service were impeccable. If you are craving some awesome Greek food and a cozy environment, Phil’s Tara Hideaway is the spot. We will be back very soon!”

“Love the atmosphere and food, and we love sitting in Lauren S’s section. Always happy and helpful!!”

“I picked Pier500 for my birthday lunch and we driver over 2 hours for our igloo lunch. Their food is great with homemade sauces, I was extremely disappointed that we had called earlier and no one mentioned that the rotisserie was down which took out a good Chunk of their menu. We drove up specifically for the wood fire rotisserie chicken, didn’t even need a menu. We would have went somewhere knowing there was no chicken available.”

“Hands down the best place in town for coffee!”

“We always enjoy eating at Milwaukee Burger! The manager Breylynn is so great at her job and tonight we had Faith as our server and she was so nice and was great with our little guy.”

“Awesome food and drinks. The agave Twinkie is a must! Been here multiple times and me and my wife have never had a bad meal.”

“Love love love JtG! Delicious, organic coffee locally sourced and so many options for flavors! The monthly speciality drinks are always fun themed. Jess, Suzi, Aimee, and Lauren are so friendly and they are so genuine- when they ask, they do want to know how you're actually doing. They do fundraising and support local businesses and causes in the community. they partner with a local bakery for yummy pastries. so good we always have a tab open.”

“Excellent experience all around. Service was excellent. Best smashed burgers!!! The dessert was also amazing! I am not normally a burger girl but this was probably the best burger I've ever had in my entire life. can't wait to go back again sometime soon. 5 stars.”

“If you’re in downtown Hudson, Urban Olive and Vine is a must! Delicious and fresh food, creative, flavorful cold/hot beverages of all kinds and awesome desserts in a cozy, warm space. Summer offers patio seating. Shop inside from local artisans as well for special and unique gifts for anyone. My absolute favorite lunch spot in downtown Hudson.”
