“Had steak and shrimp $25.99 special. Everything was great except the steak. I unfortunately had to send back a tough gristle filled steak for a better, but tough steak.
The service was excellent, and they did their best to satisfy us. There are many delicious items on their menu, and we will be back... but steak will not be chosen again.“

“great soup. service, owners friendly, enough room and tables“

“Delicious Fresh Seafood 🦞“

“Staff is very nice and accommodating. Love the decor and vibe of the place. If you miss filipino food, this can be a place to go. It's a different region of filipino food from what I'm used too. Prices are pretty good with the portions sizes.“

“My granddaughter and I went here for a quick bite before we went to the theater. I had the lobster bisque which was delicious I would recommend, my granddaughter had the stuffed salmon and thoroughly enjoyed it. We are from Seattle and hesitate ordering salmon east of the Cascade Mountain range but she was happy with the cook and the seasoning on the salmon.“

“Everything is good the wings and fried rice is the best the fish is crispy and fresh the fries are just the way I like them they are the best and the price is right it won't break the bank loe love it been going to seafood to go for as long as I been in MN and that's for 30 years they only gets better“

“Очень вкусно , красивое стильное место, очень понравилось.“

“Today was my first time eating Herr and it was very good.“

“We stopped here on December 24th looking for fresh lutefisk and were pleased to find we could buy a 5lb filet. The lutefisk was amazing I was told and in the future we will be sure to call ahead and place the order. The manager was running back and forth with several options before we decided to just buy the 5lb filet. I can say I was amazed, they cooked it in the oven and when I returned that evening I could hardly smell anything other than the usual air fresheners we have in the house.

So thanks again for helping keep a Christmas tradition alive and hope the girls hockey team does great.“

“We stumbled upon "Barwaqo" as it's now called when we were headed to the Electric Fetus for a book signing event; apparently this place changed hands about a month ago (Oct 2023) so previous reviews under the old Cala name are not relevant. We felt very welcomed by the owner and staff, and had an amazing dinner of Somali chicken and rice, sambusa, and the spinach dish which game with roasted goat and a fava bean soup with glutinous rice cakes. Everything was fresh and delicious and obviously made with a lot of care, and all of the food we got only came to about $45. We were thrilled to have randomly taken a chance on an unknown place and we will go back in the future. When we talked to the owner outside afterwards, I asked one of the staff what "barwaqo" means in Somali and he said "gift" but when I looked it up, it means "prosperity." Take a chance on this place at the corner of Clinton/Franklin instead of the Wendy's across the street!“

“My husband had gotten off work and it was almost closing. I hate doing that but I was starving. We got food that was awesome and the gentleman taking our order was very awesome and helpful and the place was very clean and very comfortable! Best wings and cat fish I've had for a long time! Great job guys! Thanks so much!!“

My husband and I were able to successfully shuck all of our oysters, and they were all DELICIOUS! We will definitely be back for more, as well as to pick out some tinned fish and other goodies.“

Also their idea of putting what is gluten free and vegan on their name tags for the food was so smart. It really was a good way to look out for their gluten free and vegan customers.“

“Long overdue celebratory review for Clay Oven. I have been thoroughly impressed every time that I've eaten here. I've had lunch, dinner, and takeout from Clay Oven. Variable spice levels from 1-7 ensure that you get a meal suited to your likings. This is one of Minneapolis' gems.“

We got chicken tacos and birria tacos along with their quesadillas and a Mangonada. Everything was divine and the staff was really nice, other than that the atmosphere was really cool and I extremely LOVE this place and WILL definitely be coming here!!“

“Excellent food! Reminds me of my youth when we came to Minnesota to visit Grandmother“

“I love the interior design, service, and food here. I also appreciate the interesting menu selections, which offer more variety than other spots in St Louis Park. This is a great place for a date, a girls' brunch, or even a corporate meeting. My mom use to order the duck sandwich, which unfortunately is not on the menu anymore. She tried the Kimchi bowl instead and enjoyed it. My favorite is the chicken Mediterranean wrap—the chicken is such great quality, and they're really generous with the portion size! I also recommend the ratatouille, chicken wings, chicken apple sandwich, fresh espresso martini, and hummus platter.“

“The pho is phenomenal! my favorite is #146. The spring rolls are made fresh and they are delicious. They just opened last week and I've been there 3 times! welcome back 😊“

“So delicious, and a friendly setting. We so appreciate this yummy, locally owned spot, and it's support of the pop up art gallery on the corner too.“

“This is my favorite restaurant. Get the pupusas with consomme as a recommendation but I get something different every time and I love it all. my wife enjoys the flautas the most.“

“it was super nice setting. comfortable, friendly service. clean well serviced. food was excellent! prices where perfect with food portion.“

“Well seasoned chicken and fish. The desserts are nice but I think most of them are cakes that they bought from Costco or Sam's wholesale. A lot of them are either too sweet or very bland. The food is very good though. The drinks are very pricey.“
