“One of if not the best BBQ places in Minnesota! Luckily I live pretty close so I come somewhat frequently. Never disappointing and they run some great one off specials every Tuesday. Love the fact the meat is all served un-sauced, and there are a bunch of house made sauces to pick from including one of my favorites a mustard/vinegar type. Add on a smoked cheddar jalapeño sausage to your order and thank me later.“

“I ordered take-out today. Ella and Aliyah were the hostesses. Eric was the manager. All three were so professional and kind from the moment I called my ordered in up to when I paid and left. The wings, pastrami, salads, collard greens, and the collard greens dip were all phenomenal. The wings were perfect! The pastrami was insanely flavorful. I will definitely be going back again. Hats off to the chef and the staff.“

“Just ate here on a whim. Wife picked it from a huge list on google. They did not disappoint. Order the fried chicken. You won’t be sorry. I also had burnt ends. Prolly the best I’ve ever had. Sticky toffee pudding and banana Creme pie for dessert. This place was off the chain. Great food great atmosphere great service. Will be back soon. I’m kinda of mad at myself for not ordering another sticky toffee pudding to take with me. 200 stars. Thanks for a great meal“

“I come to and enjoy Brasa consistently enough that I should finally write a review. The short: service is consistently friendly and helpful, food is consistently good, great gluten-free option with (thus far) no cross-contamination incidents, and a very casual atmosphere. All of my friend group have different favorites: the egg sandwich, the pork bowl, the chilaquiles (my personal favorite.) Every protein comes in different forms: a plate, a sandwich, or a bowl. Most options (except the sandwiches and a couple of sides) are gluten-free. Quick run down of what I've tried: * Chilaquiles with red sauce (the GOAT): the red sauce is such a great flavor and pairs well with the smothered chicken. Their pickled jalapenos and an egg on top makes it a perfect weekend lunch dish. * Egg sandwich: the red sauce reappears on this, to great effect once more. Otherwise it's a simple-but-great egg sandwich served with their tortilla chips. * Fish sandwich: not bad, not my favorite. Flavors are not as punchy as the other options I've had. * Mac and cheese: delightful and simple, thick cheese sauce, no complaints. Crispy yuca, fried plantains, sweet cornbread, also all good. Really, the menu is full of great options. Their beverages don't disappoint either, the coffee and tea are very nice quality -- tea always comes out with a great color and flavor (not bitter at all), coffee pleases even the pickiest coffee nerds in my friend group. Also: no tipping, service fees are built into the menu prices.“

1010 Nicollet Mall, Minneapolis - 9.25 miles

“Ambiance, music, service - this place has it all. It's our go-to recommendation for visitors from out of town, and more often than not, we come along too!Just make sure to look up the past work of the musicians before booking, because the styles vary wildly. Our least favorite was a band that pretty much sounded like elevator musak /: That said, they were still great musicians, and we've always enjoyed our outings here.If you book far enough in advance, you can snag the super close up balcony seats, which are really a VIP experience, or the snug little booths, but even at the longer group style tables, you'll have a blast.“

“I go there in the daytime for Brunch, it's amazing food and service. I noticed they were open according to Google maps one Sunday evening and realized the dinning area was closed and prior to entering I was charged 20 dollars and thought that was odd and asked the woman at the front why I had to pay to sit down to eat but didn't get an explanation. The menu is very limited and was directed to an area where people were dancing and having a good time, I got my food to go and left. I can say the place looked well run but the crowd was a little too young for my taste. Go there during the afternoon full menu.“
