“first time being there and had the po boy sandwich. it was DAAAAAAM GOOOOD. 5 star”

“We stopped on our way back from Sturgis by random choice. It turned out to be a GEM! Excellent service, good food and awesome people. The 5 biker chicks from Canada! The SPAM museum recommendation was great 😊”

“Great food, service and atmosphere! Highly recommend The Old Mill!”

“I love seafood Alfredo in this place, for me everything is excellent ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”

“The spicy fried rice was delicious, I’ll be back.”

“I’ve been there twice now with my boyfriend. The food is so yummy and filling. The malts are amazing and unique flavors. The people who run it are so kind and greet you with a big smile and warm thank you. You can tell they like what they do and appreciate the business. I can’t wait to introduce my out of town friends and family to this tiny feel good place. It is just amazing.”

“Great subs/sandwiches a day friendly service.”

“Have been there several times and have not been disappointed yet. The food and the service is always top notch. I would highly recommend the Walleye Fingers, Downtown Cheesesteak and the Blue Lavender Margarita.”

“I had heard of this brewery and that they had expanded with an ice cream shoppe. Stopped in as I was in the area. Was greeted warmly with a smile. Had ice cream with my family and had a couple samples of their blends. Then I had a glass of Dark And Angry. Very good taste. Excellent service!!! Will recommend to everyone. 5 stars!!!”

“GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE+1(8O5)-41O 5OO2 NO NONSENSE AND GREAT ASSISTANCE!!!”

“we just ate there last night, at the tables outside because we had our dog with and it was too hot to leave him in the car. The gal running food orders out first asked if we wanted a bowl of water for him. Then when she brought that out asked if we wanted a pup cup... totally made his day, and ours! We didn't catch her name but I sure hope they appreciate having someone like her around! Lots of food choices so customer service is often the determining factor for us!”

“Gravity Storm is my happy place! All here are like family♡ I highly recommend trying the variety of beers! Easy to start small with a flight. Or straight into a pint.
Also family/kid friendly. Homemade Root Beer is great!”

“The food is amazing. and the farm fresh free rage chicken eggs are so good. yummy..”

“This place rocks! Wonderful customer service, friendly staff (Hola Enrique!!!), delicious and fresh food, fast and affordable. Five stars!!! Cinco estrellas!!!”

“Best Bloody Marys in Austin. Good place to go when it's not super busy and you're alone probably; the bartenders are all pretty friendly and chatty if you're feeling it. If you're not, that's cool too. They also tell good jokes.”

“more affordable than other coffee joints, but as good.”

“A true local cafe where you can find a bit of Zen during a busy day.

It's nice when you visit a local coffee house. It's exactly what you would expect to see, ads for local events in the city and other businesses. These local coffee shops also provide a wealth of knowledge of the city from conversations with the patrons.

The coffee was on point. We also ordered a refreshing fruit smoothie which I was told from the kids was one of the best they have had.

I was lucky to meet with Kyle the owner and he was welcoming and kind. He provided a bunch of cool information regarding the city and life in Austin.

Recommend stopping by when visiting or passing throuhh Austin.”

“we ate there a number of times while staying in a nearby hotel for nearly 2 weeks. always a courteous staff, great service and good food.”

“Excellent food! Highly recommend!”

“best bar in Mower County food drinks need a good laugh this is the place to go. service is great. foods always hot drinks are cold not a single compliant about Lansing Corners. Service is always FAST!”

“Tap beer is one of the best and most unique selections in town. Taps all rotate, very rare to find the same there for more then 3-4 weeks. The best mixed drinks, mojitos, mixed drinks and cocktails in town. The food selection is also very good. I highly recommend the flat breads, grinder, and mini Donuts. You won't thank me for recommend you try this place, you'll thank yourself for listening. Great place for good conversation where your voice isn't down or by music.”

“Delightful food excellent service!!”

“The Wibber turned to me with that look in his eye... the kind of look a man gets when destiny calls him to greatness, and he asked, “What do you feel like eating?” I didn’t even blink. “Something hot. Something spicy. Something that makes me question my life choices by the last bite.” He grinned like a man who already knew the answer. “El Mariachi it is, let’s ride.” So off we went, cruising toward Austin, with visions of sizzling fajitas dancing in my head. Now, let me say this: I had never been to El Mariachi, but the whispers on the street told me this place had a reputation that could rival the Southern Border itself. I half-expected border patrol at the entrance just to check if I could handle the heat. We pulled into the alley behind the restaurant, and I knew right then, this was special. You see, a back-alley entrance is the secret handshake of great restaurants. All the legends in the big cities, the ones that make foodies weep tears of joy, have that hidden-gem alley entrance. We pushed inside, and the place opened up like a well-written novel. Booths lined the walls with intimate seating that whispered, tell your secrets here. But it was the corner booths that caught my attention, curved benches wrapping around the table just right, designed for pulling a date in close. Mental note: if I ever decide to enter the dangerous world of dating again, that booth is where my story starts. The Wibber and I, however, are men of the people. We grabbed a table dead-center, prime real estate where we could take in the full atmosphere. The colors hit me first: dark red, almost maroon, splashed with green, orange, and yellow. It was like stepping into a slice of San Antonio that had been lovingly transplanted to Minnesota. I was halfway to planning a tour of the Alamo in my head when I realized I was still sitting in Austin. Then came the server, rolling up with the kind of sincere look that said, “Tonight, I wait on legends.” He was right. Two crispy, ice-cold Pepsi's landed on the table, followed by a basket of chips, salsa, and a molten side of queso that nearly made me stand up and salute. The music hummed in the background, just the right volume to set the mood but soft enough to let us talk like civilized men. I didn’t catch many words, but one “me llamo” slipped through the beat, and honestly, you don’t need translation when the rhythm’s that smooth. Now, the Wibber and I, we think alike when it comes to food. It’s a spiritual alignment, forged over years of trial and error. So it didn’t take long: “Fajitas,” we said. “Chicken, shrimp, and scallops. Add mushrooms. Already loaded with roasted tomatoes, green peppers, onions, and pineapple.” The sizzle hit the table, and it was game over. Now, Wib has grown a bit dainty in his later years, less of a “pile it high and watch me sweat” kind of eater, so he graciously slid two of his shells across the table to me like a man passing down his inheritance. I went in hard. Five fajitas later, stacked to the heavens with pico de gallo and sour cream, I was baptized in the fire of El Mariachi. By the time I was done, I didn’t just eat... I lived. And in that moment, El Mariachi became my new favorite Mexican restaurant this side of the equator. But there was one test left. The crucible. The moment of truth. The bathroom. Listen, I don’t hand out five stars lightly. A Mexican restaurant can have the best fajitas this world has ever seen, but if that bathroom smells like a Tijuana gas station, it’s over. I pushed open the door, braced for whatever fate had in store… and brother, it was spotless. No smell. Clean as a whistle. That was the final check mark. Five stars, no debate. We walked out of El Mariachi not just satisfied, but changed men. More cultured. More seasoned. And with the unshakable knowledge that once again, the Wibber had led us straight to glory. So here’s the word: if you’re tired of arguing with your spouse about where to eat tonight, stop playing games and just go to El Mariachi. Order the fajitas. Get the queso. Check the bathroom. Then thank us later. F”

“They did a good job meeting our food needs and followed safe rules. Felt very comfortable to do dine in!”

“Great desserts, super tasty exactly what I was expecting. But, more importantly, just a genuinely kind person as well. She went out of her way to help me get what I wanted. I'll definitely be getting more in the future.”

“i love it so much i alawys get the pho when i go there 10/10!!!”

“Follow the Yelp and it was great food!”

“Best hidden gem of an old school biker dive bar you’ll find. If you haven’t been, you have to check it out! If you can’t have a fun time here you’re better off staying at home with your tv.”

“Amazing variety of great sweets!! Awesome customer service!!”

“We googled great places to stop and eat and have a craft beer on our way from Iowa to the Twin Cities. We were very fortunate to to meet Jeremy the owner and the wonderful bar tender Sonya! We decided to go with the Ole’s Burger with tots! Yum!!! We loved it! There was a great selection of beer and if shots are your thing spin the shot wheel and make sure to have a sober cab😂 What a wonderful bar/restaurant. The four of us are so glad we stopped here and will be back!”

“great atmosphere, great staff.”

“We just had a Valentine Banquet last week at Zion Lutheran Church in the Woods of Dexter, Minnesota. Cindy and her staff were outstanding! The food was delivered on time, hot, done to perfection, plentiful, and it was absolutely delicious. We couldn't have asked for anything more perfect. We are already asking for them to cater for next year's banquet. Thank you Cindy!!! Blessings to all of you! Kathy Pinke-Thorson”

“My food is always fresh, hot, and taste amazing. Had never had a bad experience. Staff is always polite. Compared to the other Dairy Queens, I've been too, I give it a 10/10!”

“The customer service was unbelievably poor tonight. It’s that kind of customer service that can ruin your business. Plus my order was exactly what I asked for. The pizza, cheese bread, and Monkey bread were very good.”

“All the works are so pleasant, cheerful, easy to talk and joke with. It’s nice to know you can spend a couple of hours at a table and no one cares! I especially love the raspberry cones!”

“Was there Sunday morning there? Only two people working there used to be a lot of people working in places like that so we had to wait a little bit on things. But food was very good customer service. Pretty good for what they had”

“the steak was good, pork chops were tasty, overall main course was great. appetizer was cold... no silverware or water. and was given marinara in place of chili. waitress was running literally. understaffed. would still recommend. maybe just not if they are busy”

“Absolutely by far the best Applebee's I've ever eaten!! I maybe make it to this Applebee's 1 time a year but every single time it's amazing!! I got the classic cheese burger this last time and it was by far best burger I've had ever! A+++++”
