Restaurants in Bloomington

“Invite your family and friends and they won’t be disappointed.”

“Food is very good, The service is also very good & friendly. I have become a regular here. I would highly recommend this restaurant if you want to have a taste of Indian food.”

“The food was fantastic and the service was fire! We just had an awesome dining experience at their Bloomington location. The ladies working front of house killed it during a busy dinner rush - Thank you for your exceptional work. Highly recommend- we will be back.”

“Yummy food and friendly service!”

“If you haven’t already been, you need to! Minute chicken, wood fire pizzas, banana cream pie!!! So good 🤤”

“Nice enough! Mall restaurants are like airport restaurants except you can carry a full bottle of shampoo and no one will tackle you.

I got the St. Paul cut prime rib and if that thing was 12oz I’m the Pope. It was easily 16oz or more. A woman across from me hopefully got the Minneapolis cut (18oz) because it was basically the size of a badger.

Great prime rib. Tender. Juicy. My medium rare was closer to rare. The lady with the badger cut got hers well done but nobody’s perfect. The horseradish sauce had very little horseradish in it. Bummer.

The mashed potatoes come with gravy. You don’t see that a lot and I was a big fan. Good gravy, too.

Very attentive service. Staff constantly coming by to refill water or clear plates.

If you have a large group they have rooms in back to accommodate you if you call ahead. Great for work dinners you don’t want to go to in the first place.

If you’re at the mall or nearby, go! If you’re not, you’ll drive past multiple comparable places to get here.”

“First time trying. Got a rack of ribs, pulled pork, Mac and cheese, and pit beans. Meat was on point and very juicy and sides had great flavors popping.very tasty and will be going back again.”

“My dad took me to Shantytown when I was a kid and now I get to take my son here - and the burgers are still amazing. Plus, where else can you go and order a medium rare burger and ACTUALLY get a medium rare burger?! 🙌”

“Everything! Wait time was accurate, food was outstanding in presentation AND taste, staff was warm, welcoming, and friendly. We will be back!”

“Food is Always Amazing, Staff is always Friendly and Welcoming! I always make it a stop on my trips across Minnesota! Great Place!”

“This place is a vibe. A mix of people. All chill and friendly. Pool tables and darts with video games and a bar and tvs for sports. Prettttyy much everything. Probably have karaoke nights as well.”

“Great pizza and amazing fresh salads! This place is adorable and food is fresh.”

“Lost my comment. Try again. On May 19th a group of family members went to the Bloomington Culvers. We were celebrating my grandsons grade school concert. I was unable to go up front to order and my son asked if someone could help me. Jose (spelling) I believe was the night manager. He came back to my table and took my order. He was so gracious and kind. I so appreciated his help. I didn't have the right walker and it would have been difficult without help to go up front. I can't thank him enough. It is so nice to go to a restaurant and know everyone is so friendly and willing to make your experience a good one. Thank you Don and Misty for such a wonderful crew. Now if you only had your fried chicken back on the menu, my favorite. See you soon”

“Today, Jule 7, 2026, was my daughter's birthday, and we decided to celebrate at Red Lobster. It was our first time eating lobster, and we really enjoyed everything. There were six of us in our group. The atmosphere was very pleasant. Our waiter, Abdalla, was very polite, helpful, and attentive; he wished my daughter a happy birthday and brought her a beautifully presented ice cream treat with a candle.”

“Great and Fresh!! Friendly service. Delicious Mango Lassi.”

“The server we had was above par. He was the nicest and best server we've ever had. A very handsome Hispanic gentleman that really made my mother's birthday so much better. We wish we would've asked for his name because idk that we'll be back unless he's working and is our server. I highly recommend the stuffed chicken marsala.”

“The chicken Alfredo was amazing! It's honestly hard to find good food and you guys deserve your recognition and flowers 💐👏🏿 Shout out to head culinary chef at MOA in Bloomington 🤘🏿🤗”

“North Star Tavern absolutely crushed it for our group! We had our reservation double at the very last minute and they not only accommodated us, but were able to get us in earlier too. The host who helped coordinate everything was incredibly kind, patient, and accommodating. I really wish I had gotten his name because he made the whole experience so easy. And Riley, our server, despite being a Packer fan 😉, was fantastic. She handled our large group like a pro and gave us excellent service the entire time with a smile on her face. Also…that Brussel sprout salad is an absolute banger. 10/10 all around!”

“Consistently delicious, every meal, every time. The atmosphere is beautiful with all the windows, dark wood, cozy seating and water feature. And the staff is so friendly and professional.”

“The Food , Wine , Beer , Atmosphere and the dining experience at its finest”

“Im staying at the crown plaza for work and was in the mood for Mexican flautas. I crossed the parking lot to this little gem. Mr. Juan made me delicious and flavorful flautas. Their lemon cucumber agua fresca is very refreshing. I will for sure come back again.”

“Austin is the best server I have ever had. So knowledgeable, friendly, a warm presence that makes you feel at home! You are lucky to have this employee. Sushi was incredible also!”

“First time I visited since Veterans Day. Your sticker indicated a three percent service fee due to supply chain issues. Why don’t you just raise your prices to cover those issues. If the supply chaiin issues are solved you can offer a price rollback. I’ll find another place that posts their prices instead of service charging.”

“Love the manager he was announcing the customers name and having fun im from Madison Wisconsin we need that energy up there”

“We went through the drive through with a coupon through the app but we kept having issues with the order processing and saying we couldn’t order due to taco bell being closed even with the 24 hour drive thru. Isabel was really helpful and made our morning by being so kind. This was especially great since I just had gotten off the night shift. Thank you, Isabel!”

“Great place for small get togethers but not not weddings unless it’s very small”

“I’m Batman…………………………………..”

“Aroma of the nuggets is a stench i hold close to my heart.”

“Five stars for the team here! Every single time I visit this location, the customer service is incredible. The staff is consistently kind, courteous, thoughtful, and incredibly speedy. They have gone above and beyond what is expected of them multiple times now. It’s rare to find a fast-food location that is this consistently excellent. Highly recommend! I love the chocolate frostys 😊”

“I heard of the world famous scoops, so I had to try it. My strawberry waffle cone was scooped with excellence. My milkshake was the perfect blend of milk and flavor. The girls were so bright and cheerful. Honestly, my experience was just so much fun next time I’m bringing my daughter. You have to try it!!”

“My daughter and I just had the *most* delicious lunch here! Highly recommend and we will be back!

One suggestion, please consider changing the uncomfortable chairs (tables of two) by the windows looking over the patio. Fortunately, we were able to find bar chairs to move to where we met other customers who moved for the same reason. We’ll be back to enjoy the patio! Cheers!”

“Really solid quick service Greek food, especially when you consider that it came from a mall food court! Enjoyed the gyro pita with the flavorful meat and the Spanakopita which was nice a crispy with the phyllo dough. There was only one person working when I was there so things were moving a little slowly but they were trying their best.”

“Huge portions and delicious!”

“We had their French dip with fries. Everything tasted great! Tomato bisque was extraordinary!!! Bread that was served with it melted on my mouth. We are from Hudson, WI. We will visit the Woodbury location for sure! Oh, I might add, great service which is hard to come by now days.”

“Can tell this place is popular. At least half full right at noon on a Wednesday. First time having wider pho noodles for me and I do prefer the usual thinner ones. But broth was tasty and tendon was top notch.”

“Went there for fist time today and thoroughly enjoyed the experience and the tea and shake. I do plan on going back again”

“Chai latte with oat milk and a half pump of marshmallow syrup is legit one of the best things I've ever had at a coffee shop!”

“I visited last Estancia yesterday for the first time and I am so glad I did! Their baked goods are fresh and delicious (I bought many to try)! I highly recommend them. And they carry Guatemalan sweet bread which is not easy to find in the Twin Cities. I am on the Board of Directors of the Saint Paul non-profit Common Hope which helps children and families in Guatemala improve their lives through education, healthcare, improved housing and family development. I will share with all locals who love Guatemala that we can get sweet bread locally! Gracias!”

“a must visit every time I come to the mall”

“Met up with friends here recently on a Friday morning. Coffee was great - some of the best I have had in the Twin Cities. Although it wasn't busy at all, it was a challenge to find a table for 4. There were a few single people sitting at tables for 4 and there was one huge long table which we didn't want to sit at in case a larger group came in. It would be great to switch out that long table and replace it with some tables for 2 or 4, but other than that this is a great location with great coffee!”

“Nice service good food price is little high but ok”

“I am a fan of small locally owned coffee shops and WSP is one of my long time favorites. Thanks Mary!”

“First time eating at a Pancheros. Trying to cut back on meat consumption so I tried the tofurizo and was pleasantly surprised. It is very tasty. I also love that the tortillas are fresh pressed and cooked while ordering.”

“Great food and speedy friendly service!”

“Wow, I have been looking for a great Indian place in the area, and I've found it! I had ordered takeout from here a few years ago and thought it was good, but Chef Latish obviously has done a lot of work to improve the scope of the menu and the flavors. As a vegetarian, I also appreciate their very large selection of options. My buddy and I ordered the aloo mattar (very good) and the malai kofta (truly outstanding!) and we can't wait to go back! Thank you for the delicious food!”

“Place was fun and service was great. My kids sweet 16th party was a success. they had a blast!”

“The London Fig was excellent. Perfect for a snowy cold day.”

“great food”

“Zantigo is excellent. I usually order their green chili burrito, with two hot chilitos. Very yummy. (you have to slurp the burrito. hahaha)”

“You do not have to work in the building to go here. This is a full open to the public caribou. Location with online ordering and food items. They have reserved the closest several parking spaces to the Caribou entrance on the bottom floor of the parking garage, and it is very quick to get in and out.”

“Nice young man named Will behind the counter. Said he normally worked at another store but got me a hot drip and a nice recommendation for what beans to buy. Great fellow.”

“Hey y’all! Tii cup in West Saint Paul is now open and they’re all amazing. Show some love to their business.”

“Great addition to the neighborhood. Old Shakopee/France food is pretty heavy on the same-old pizza, burger and sandwich places. Great choice if you're looking for something out of the ordinary, lighter food, or just feel the need for some vegetables once in a while.

I've been a fan of their other locations for a while, so I'm familiar with the food. The Gyros are good, and a touch more authentic than the norm, but the rest of the menu is what makes this place great - Baba ghanoush, Tabbouleh, lots of different sides/combos beyond the typical seasoned fried or greek salad offering.

Would love to see this place succeed in our neighborhood.”

“Very friendly staff exceeded what was promised if you want a one of a kind experience i highly recommend a visit here thank you oppa sweets for making a lifelong memory”

“We have the privilege of being able to worship Jesus with the founder of Baking Betty’s. The cookies are almost as amazing as she is! I would highly recommend these gourmet cookies over any other bakery! A must try! Thank you Emily!”

“Very delicious !! Specially the CHURRO ! My favorite . But the worker was rude she didn’ t explain to Us what was the first,second and third step. She gave us an attitude when she asked the questions and we were all lost lol it was our first time trying them😐.”
