“the family atmosphere. we will be back“

“Unreal service. Second to none food“

“For our company’s employee appreciation party, we booked a cruise on the Belle Vista, and it was wonderful! The crew was very kind, professional and attentive and the food was amazing. We are beyond impressed with how smoothly everything went from the initial booking to the day of the cruise. Morgan worked with us diligently to book the cruise and did a fantastic job recommending which boat would best fit our group and helped with selecting our food choices. We can’t thank all the staff at Al and Almas enough, from the cooks that prepared our food, to the many behind-the-scenes staff, and the incredible crew that made our day so special. We highly recommend Al and Almas for any event and can’t wait to plan our next cruise.“

“This is one of our favorite places, we make sure to come every month for the bloody of the month. Today I had the breakfast tacos and old fashion, amazing food and drinks.

“excellent service food tasted great best happy hour out there“

“Positive-Great tasting food with large portions. Great food choices. Bakery to die for. Friendly service. Negative-Pricey and very noisy. Not a lot of seating. Crowded. I would definitely go back again!!!“

“Good food. Server did state multiple times that they were super busy and uncomfortable and had a side ache because they were so stressed. Has nobody noticed the spelling error on the work uniform? How long have you had those? It should be “you’re.”“

“The service is horrible. Waited 20mins before getting someone to take just our drink order and it was the bartender from inside not even our server that noticed we were still sitting there with nothing. Then barley good service once our waiter did finally come. We all could have had another drink but never could since we werent asked till after we were done with food. Food was actually really good and good portions for the price. But the service ruined it. I can't recommend this place and don't know if we will back. Plenty of other places with good food that actually have good service.“

“Is like an American place that serves, homemade food and is excellent.“

“This is our new go to spot on the weekend nights! The sticky ribs are amazing and the steak, gnocchi, and especially muscles and basically anything you order is going to be good!!
The prices are a bit high, and it is a bit noisy most of the time we go, and I don’t really like that you can’t make reservations ahead of time for sitdown tables. But overall, we still love going here when we can afford it. Recommend you try it for sure. Food won’t disappoint 😊“

“Yummy 😋 Awesome Service & food was top notch!!! Definitely going back!!!“

“We had a wedding reception dinner here last Saturday and I would highly recommend it. Mike was so helpful the last month answering all my questions and getting everything I needed to make our night perfect. Everyone was ranting and raving on how good the food was! Our bartender Kyle C. was awesome! He was busing tables and serving drinks like a champ. He even found me the last Busch light in the bar and saved it for me. Our night could have not been more perfect thanks to the hard working staff here. Best of all it worked great with our budget! If you are looking for a place to hold your small event this is it don’t look any further. P.S the chocolate cake is to die for. Thank you again 💕 The Feyereisen’s“

“First time eating there, great experience overall. The location is beautiful, the food was good and the service was excellent. The server was knowledgeable regarding celiac and let us know it was a shared fryer but was great at making modifications for us.“

“The stuffed walleye is fantastic and the side of peppers and pea pods was also delicious“

“Local fare done well. Great service!“

“Our order was missing items and when I called, the manager(s) on duty went above and beyond to take care of the issue. They know customer service and they do it well! Thank you!“

“Beautiful! I can’t say enough about the wonderful summer vibes of this gorgeous restaurant! The only thing I noticed out of place were the napkins. Mine was all white but the table next to me had stripes? Don’t skip on the delicious calamari- prepared fresh by the scratch kitchen! The craft cocktails were delicious! However my favorite part of the experience was our server Sara! She made great recommendations and even better company! I would have invited her to join the table and stay but I would have had to take a number because all the guests were loving her!“

“Great experience tonight at Zupas. Always get great service, especially at the Draper Zupas. Jon runs a tight ship and it is always clean and the staff ( Alyssa, Maya, Marilu, Kami, Brynn) 5 Star. Let’s go“

“You won’t go wrong here. They’ve figured it all out.“

“Honestly our experience couldn't have been better. We arrived early and were offered complimentary Prosecco while we waited. A small thing, but a nice touch. Old fashioned was a 10. Food was inventive, aesthetic and cooked to perfection. Server was attentive and informed. Really nice job to all involved!“

“We had a lovely brunch experience today. While the food and drinks were wonderful, our visit was GREATLY enhanced by the AMAZING service we received from Colin. What a gem of a young man you have!“

“It's a fast food restaurant, so atmosphere isn't really what you're there for. The food is always prepared fresh and the service is incredibly pleasant. Stores are usually very clean which makes a big difference when dining in. Great, juicy burgers, always hot, and crispy crinkle fries!“

“We all ended up ordering the walleye, which was excellent. It's been a favorite of ours there for years. We added the house salad, which was also very good. We each had a cocktail before and a glass of wine with dinner. Everyone said theirs were delicious. Our waiter was friendly, professional and very attentive. All in all, it was a delightful evening.“

“People like to say, "this is some of the best food outside of (insert city)." The Noble Lion has some of the best food anywhere and amazing staff as well!“

“Sean is the best. Always so friendly, helping on our food selections, excellent customer service. He is so kind and polite. We come Applebee’s once a week and he always welcomes us big smile and great service. Thank you so much ,Sean!

Dietary restrictions: Many healthy and delicious food options

Kid-friendliness: Good menu options for picky kids and also healthy!!“

“I have been attending for 20 years. The staff has turned over many times. Food is always perfect. Staff is the variable. I have two worthy of particular honors. They are Cathy and Shannon. Pin gold medals on the both. Don't let them leave until they are much too old. They make Perkins for me“

“Great place to meet and hang out with friends. Casual atmosphere. Patio seating is a favorite. They really do have excellent burgers. They do have a great selection of beer however, it would be excellent if they had hard cider on tap. You do have the option of buying a bottle of your favorite wine at the attached liquor store and enjoying it for a corking fee. The staff is long-standing and ever friendly. Haskell's will always remain a favorite.

Parking: Somewhat limited.“

“Amazing brunch- chicken biscuits and gravy. Excellent service and staff!“

“Every year the girls get a pup cup for their birthday. Usually we go to that other ice cream place, but I like Culver's custard and figured I'd stop in quick and inquire for her birthday on Monday. The very sweet employee thought I was asking for one instead of just inquiring if they do that at this location and came back with one for the girls. They were spoiled a little early and we will definitely be back on their birthday and other days for service like this. Thank you so much for making mine and the girls day🍨💜“

“Outstanding food. Never disappointed.“

“Food was AMAZING, service was AMAZING.

I had the pulled pork barbecue sandwich which I don't regret getting, one of the best I have ever had. The other people I was with got the chicken loaded burrito, and they absolutely loved it.

Our server Chris, was Awesome. He would check in regularly, refill our drinks, and ask if we needed anything.

10/10 would absolutely love to come here again.“

“I moved in earlier than I planned because there wa no reason not too. I am very happy at The Waters and so glad I made the move. The "cottages" are wonderful even though there is downsizing to get done. The staff is very helpful and cheerful. The food is great - besides the 'every day menu," there are specials for lunch and dinner. The menu is quite varied with chicken, beef/veal, pork, turkey and vegetarian.“

“I placed an online order but I forgot to switch it to the bloomington location. So it was placed here at EP Culvers.
So when I realized, I called them and rushed over. The manager was this Latino fella. When I explained my stupid mistake to him, he had his team re-make my order fresh!
Goddamn! That's great service! Thank you Latino dude and culvers team!“

“A quick go to place for a fast and affordable dinner meal. I visited this location several times and I always find it to be clean, consistent, and fast. The dining area is definitely an upgrade when compared with McDonald's, Burger King, or even Wendy's. I've never had a service issue here where there was a problem with my order.“

“I have been working in the area for a couple of years and didn't know about this place until I found it by accident today. I ordered the special Turkey Pita, sandwich of the day and a burger and fries for my husband. The food was hot, and fresh and the fries were deliciously crispy. I also ordered a side of 'special sauce', because I love to dip things, and it did not disappoint. We decided to enjoy our food outside on the back patio and it was absolutely divine. Imagine a upper patio veranda surrounded by trees and flowers, birds singing above and lovely natural shade all around. I didn't want to leave. The grounds are surrounded by rose bushes and the fragrance from them was captivating. It was an oasis in the middle of my busy work day and I can not wait to go back there and try some of the other options on the menu. I am sharing food pics. Don't mind my husband's burger, he eats them upside down!
PS. I am a sales manager for the beautiful Hampton Inn in Minnetonka, I am excited to recommend this tasty cafe to my corporate groups!!“

“Excited for the rebranding of the Stonebrooke Bar and Restaurant to Tavern 19. Thank you for inviting the neighbors to your new menu tasting. The food was amazing and can’t wait to get back. The community and golfers will love the new menu!“

“I have experienced this place. It must be said that it is like a flower paradise. The scenery is very beautiful. I really like this place.“

“Delicious barbecue chicken and peach tea. Excellent service. Very nice patio.“

“Great service…great food…great prices!“

“Service was good even though mixup with food and it was never ordered. Big delay and provided one free dessert for a check of $150. Not the way to handle a problem even though they apologized. Disappointed. Food okay , just above average. Will think twice again before returning.“

“We ate there last night. Great food and atmosphere“

“All of it amazing 😻 family environment“
