“Food and our Server, Sarah were great!I got Lobster Tortelloni, Grilled Shrimp, and a Port Old Fashioned and it was all delicious.It's a nice restaurant, but I probably wouldn't go back during happy hour on a Thursday. At 5pm there was a 30min wait, because to get happy hour specials, you have to sit at a high-top in the bar area. The bar was loud, a lot of commotion, and tables were very tight in that area. In retrospect I would've spent a few bucks extra and sat in the dining area so I could hear my friend talking better.It would be way better if they offered happy hour pricing in the whole restaurant because there were lots of open tables in the dining room area.Overall it was a pleasant experience though.Dietary restrictions: My friend enjoyed her Salmon and Root Veggies, which was one of the options the server pointed out because she's gluten and dairy-free. They also grilled the shrimp appetizer instead of breaded.“
“The thing that impressed me the most about this restaurant was the staff. The general manager Rob took the time to make us feel welcome and cared for. He does an outstanding job. The bartenders are amazing. Not only are the drinks inventive and delicious but the service was spot on. At the end of our meal the assistant manager stopped by to check on us one last time. We told her we would be sure to return soon.“
“Very happy to have a good sushi and Ramen restaurant nearby! My test of a good sushi place is freshness of the scallop sashimi and it did not disappoint. We also had cream cheese wonton and tempura appetizers that were both very good - light and crispy!“
“Let me start with the best part first. The dessert flight with chocolate cake, banana cream pie, and bread pudding was divine!!! I lost track of the number of times me and my husband moaned yum. He even said at one point, "We gotta stop!" We both had the walleye taco bowl. The fish was fresh and seasoned very well. It was the perfect portion size as well. We enjoyed the 80's music being played. There was a "buzz" in the restaurant of people meeting socially and a few people for business. We loved our waitress who gave us a list of other restaurants to try in the area. The only negative thing we have to say is that the mocktail sangria was overly tart and my blueberry mocktail was overpowered with fizz.“
“more of a classy ambiance - great for business meetings, team dinners, dinner with parents (which is what we did!) it's a solid spot, just misses with the "IT" factor. servers are very kind and had great recs we enjoyed. fav dishes: crab cakes, linguine, Rossa pasta & tres leches gelato skip on: risotto, tiramisu (very rummy, unless ur into that) , caramel custard (too sweet)“
“It is the best place to find the Indian food. We are traveling from Chicago to Minnesota on the weekend and this restaurant is the best spot to enjoy the morning breakfast dosa and Chola bhatura . Ambience, Taste, quality and quantity all are five out of five. God bless , running very good business and giving the best customer service as well. Must try one time.“
“We ordered from the cafe and was very satisfied. The buffalo shrimp was one of the best we’ve had. The Ahi Tuna sandwich was outstanding. The child cheese burger is the best deal in town. This was first time ordering from the cafe and we’ll be repeat buyers.“
“Everything was absolutely superb! Our waiter, Carlos, took excellent care of us. Our food was exceptional ! From the seafood platter to steaks and all the accompaniments. And of course the best cocktails and wine. The evening was very important to us and Capital Grille and Carlos took the best care of us.“
“We have never eaten at a restaurant like Legendary Spice. It was an interesting experience. Our waiter was very helpful directing us through the process. There is seriously so much food. The steamed dumplings and sesame balls were absolutely amazing. I ordered the Mushroom hot pot & my boyfriend ordered the spicy beef pot. His was definitely HOT, so not my thing, but he enjoyed it. You can make nearly unlimited choices in Chinese veggies & meats.“
“We recently had dinner for 9 on a Friday night to celebrate my Mom's 80th birthday and our godfather's 90th. We brought along a menu that we had from the 1960's to show staff . . . prices have changed, but not much else except the carpet, which is as it should be . . . quality is quality! As my Mom noted, we had a DINING experience; we were not just quickly and mindlessly served. Because of that, us younger-fold will be back to JAX to enjoy that experience. But for one night, the JAX staff and owners helped our parents and godfather celebrate old times and again enjoy a "night out on the town" they will not soon forget! For that, we THANK YOU, JAX Cafe!!!“

“A friend and I visited on 4/20 and enjoyed the Carne Asada con Camarones, as well as margaritas. The drinks leaned a little sweet but they were fine margs. The food was phenomenal—hands down one of my favorite food experiences in Minneapolis. My friend said it was like a good home cooked meal; I have to agree. Filling, tasty, and comforting.“
“We ate at the Oceanaire, on a Saturday. Reservation was at 6pm. Sat immediately and greeted right away. Farrah was our server and she was amazing. She has been there ten years and knew all about the menu and seasonal specials. Had great recommendations and obviously knew what she was doing and talking about. We will definitely request to sit in her section upon return visits. She made our experience absolutely fantastic.“
“Took my wife we had a great experience , the food was delicious , atmosphere was soothing and the service was really good , the waitresses kept check on you whether you need anything else , or a refill of soda etc .Parking: The parking is behind the restaurant , you have to drive in within the intersection of the restaurant and the other building at the side and the parking lot is both sides“
“Highly recommend Jensen’s Food & Cocktails. Excellent service, outstanding food (steaks, seafood, burgers, salads) all very good. Delicious after dinner drinks too. Have dined here many times with clients, family & friends. Was there last night and had excellent service from Matt at the bar. Very reasonably priced filet mignon, baked potato, house salad, and those delicious popovers! Thanks Jensen’s for always creating great memories!“
“Sushi Takatsu in Minneapolis offers a delightful dining experience that stands out in the city's culinary scene. From the moment you walk in, the inviting atmosphere sets the stage for an exceptional meal. The sushi here is a real treat, featuring a variety of fresh, flavorful options that cater to both classic and adventurous palates. Each dish is prepared with care, showcasing the chefs' expertise and attention to detail. The staff's friendly and attentive service further enhances the experience, making you feel genuinely welcomed. Whether you're a sushi connoisseur or trying it for the first time, Sushi Takatsu is the perfect spot to enjoy a memorable meal with friends or family. It's a place where the quality of food and the warmth of hospitality come together beautifully.“
“The food is very tasty and for the price is about right for the size of the dishes. The service is not as quick, but they will treat you the best they can. There is not a parking lot (or at least I didn't see it)so street park it is. Definitely worth to give it a chance and try a good Ecuadorian food/experience ?“
“Service was top tier, the setting was so romantic. The waitress went above and beyond. They all celebrated me with a complimentary drink and dessert. I was spoiled! And I’ll be back to dine again! The staff, the chef, thank you! Thank you so much, and you all deserved that nice tip and much more!“
“JJ's is the best. You can get a load of fish for a decent price, and other options too if you dont like fish. I get a teriyaki chicken bowl which is great and the steamed chicken buns are the best I've had! They always make the order accurately and are friendly and accomodating!“
“Excellent selection of food. If you are going to try it plan to come back. You can get a great lunch/dinner just trying their apps. The szechuan dumplings are amazing. The sauce can be used on the rest of your meal. All the dumplings are amazing.“
“Excelente atención agradable ambiente... Comida muy buena ...la comida peruana muy buena...la chicha sour excelente...mención especial al Cheff Peruano Raúl Jacobi...preservando los auténticos sabores peruanos... 100 % recomendado...no se arrepentirán...y la Anfitriona y dueña le Restaurant Monica1,000 puntos a su personalidad y atención personalizada...“
“I was hungry for Mexican food and this restaurant had a location close to our home so we stopped. It is a standard type of restaurant in terms of tables, chairs, ambiance etc. Both booths and tables are available for seating and allows for some larger groups too it appears. We started with a Texas Margarita which was very tasty. They offered a LOT of different flavor options as well as beer and other options. We also got the Queso Fundido which was excellent. Cheesy with a nice amount of ground sausage in it and a few warm, soft tortillas which I stole from my husband so he had to use chips. Oh chips....they had very good chips with a nice fresh salsa as well. I got the Combo #6 which came with an enchilada and a tamale, rice and beans. Everything hit the spot and it had a really good flavor. That is what I have found missing lately at some of the more "American" Mexican restaurants and I really wanted some flavor and wasn't disappointed. My husband got the Combo #1 and was also very happy with his dinner as well. The portions were a nice size and allowed for some leftovers as well. It looked like they were expanding the restaurant when we went so that is nice to get a bit bigger space. We were pretty happy with our experience.“
“I've ordered take out a few times now. Their eggrolls are superb. You don't find that many restaurants that offer a generous size and very crispy egg roll. Love them! I also had their hot and spicy chicken. I've frequented other Vietnamese restaurants that did that dish very well. Namely, Kinhdo Uptown and Vina, both which are now closed, so I'm on the hunt for a Vietnamese restaurant that does a good job with that dish. Unfortunately, when I ordered the Hot and Spicy Chicken the chicken was shaved and not pieces or chunks of chicken, while the flavor was spot-on. The shaved chicken really turned me off from an appearance and texture. Maybe that was unusual, for them, so will try it again and hope to not be disappointed a second time.“
“This is the best Chinese restaurant I have been ever eaten in Minneapolis! We ordered sesame chicken and beef broccoli for our lunch special! The foods are so good. The service staff is very kind, with detailed and patient introduction, I will come again!“

“While most of the staff were very nice and the food and drinks were very good. Several people in our party of 10 were charged for items we did not order. Be careful and look at your bill. They did fix the issue but it was concerning. Had we not paid close attention we would have been overcharged.“
“The Meatloaf was exactly what I needed. I arrived without a reservation, but it was early...I was immediately seated. The wait staff was right on hand, and friendly. My Iced Tea was kept full, and flavorful! My dinner arrived very quickly. The gravy pulled the dish together with just enough tang and spice combined. Fresh Green Beans accompanied the potatoes, and frizzled onions. I splurged and topped off the meal with a small brownie sundae. The ice cream really hit the spot. Very nice place, bright, and energetic.“
“First time customer ordered takeout boil. Not a lot of seating inside and they were pretty busy on a weekday afternoon. The people working there seemed happy and were all smiles. I ordered the peeled shrimp, head on shrimp and Cajun sausage with house seasoning, medium heat and extra sauce. The heat, seasoning and sauce were perfect, as were the shrimp, sausage, potatoes and corn. Be careful with extra sauce so none spills out of the tray while driving. Also be aware that if you like deveined shrimp you might as well get it peeled to begin with since the head on shrimp is not deveined. After it's been cooked you pretty much have to run the shrimp under water to devein it. Next time I'll get them all peeled. I'd recommend this place and will be back again.“
“We dinned in last week during the snow storm. It was pretty empty, so service was quick. The crab cakes were delicious and I appreciate that it came with 3 cakes instead of the normal 2 at most restaurants. My fiance and my teen ordered the chicken and waffles. Warning, the chicken was hot!! My son says he'll get regular strips next time. My fiance liked them. I ordered the New Orleans salmon. My dish was good however with the name New Orleans, I expected way more flavor. I had to add a decent amount of salt to my food and I NEVER use salt. I'll probably order something different next time but we will definitely be returning!“
“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“
“I was very pleased that even though our reservation was 12:30, the sound level was quite reasonable and we didn't have to raise our voices to hear each other. Our waitress was very nice and attentive and we enjoyed our sandwishes very much. I did bring a new friend who feels the same as I do, so she might become a new customer. I do enjoy Mill Valley Kitchen. It is a hike for me; I live on the Mississippi River, but worth the trip.“
“Very nice restaurant & lots of good, fresh food. Very worth the price.Parking: Have to circle a bit of the parking lot to find a good place to walk close by.Kid-friendliness: Easy for kids with the atmosphere & the food that your child likes.“
“The go to place for dim sum. Family owned with a younger kid running the restaurants which always means the food is amazing. The dim sum menu is voluminous with the traditional dishes. Servers don’t walk around with carts but will walk around with plates of food. Hard to find that nowadays with the traditional carts. The food here is always fresh and busy. Definitely recommend to everyone!“
“Went here for our anniversary. This place has been around forever and has great reviews so we were really excited. Our server was great and really helpful. Unfortunately we thought the food was pretty lackluster. There wasn't a ton of flavor to anything we ordered. For the price, I don't think we'll be back.“

“A fun, adorable place to go for brunch with friends or family! So many different gourmet pastries to choose from. They also offer hot breakfast items. Plenty of seating in a shabby-chic building. I tried a sampler platter of various pastries, all unique and decadent.“
“Kind of your traditional tex mex place. The food was fine. Classic endless bowl of chips with salsa. The queso was good. All dishes were served with rice and beans. Large menu, and lots a variations of same dishes between carnitas, pollo, pork and shrimp. Classic burrito, enchilada, chimmichanga, quesadilla, etc selectionsGood margaritas. Fairly standard with a few twists, but nothing super crazy innovative.The service was good, they were very helpful and where to please.Really a good place to get a tex-mex bite and meet up with a few friends for a casual chat. A smaller version of the the old Don Pablo's with maybe a bit better foodVegetarian options: There is stuff you can find on menuParking: In a mini-mall area so has a parking lotKid-friendliness: There are plenty of kid friendly items on menuWheelchair accessibility: On ground level and you can get chair through door. It is not the most convenient though with tables. Lots of booths“
“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.“
“It was my first time there and I loved it. We did a walk-in on Monday and had a wonderful experience from top to bottom!Our server was friendly and very knowledgeable. The atmosphere is homey and unpretentious. The food was fantastic! Especially the Aguacate - I can’t stress this enough, get the Aguacate!!Drinks were good as well, plus they have Modelo on tap! Cannot wait to go back and sit on the patio this summer!“

“The amount of lobster per roll is comparable to other places in the area. The lobster was cooked and seasoned perfectly. Is it expensive? Of course but you’re at the mall of america getting lobster. It is equally as expensive as any other lobster places in Minnesota.“
“First time trying this place. Food was delivered to my job.Both the chicken and fries had lots of seasoning. The chicken wasn't dry but the seasoning as you can see was put on pretty heavy in same spots.Fries were limp and soft. Again decent with the seasoning. I recommend a try if you're looking for something different than popeyes or KFC.“
“Still loving JJ's Poke. I've tried a couple of other Poke Bowl places and JJ's has been the best. I create my own bowl although I've tried the rice bowl and the ramen which were also good the poke bowls are so fresh and the options hit the spot that I rarely stray. The staff is wonderful and helpful for my gluten free friend when she joins me.“
