“they have great burger's. the staff is great. it's reasonably priced“

“My waiter Addison was great and very attentive. However, the short rib sandwich was over cooked and over priced. On line there were a couple of items that I didn't see on the actual menu while at the restaurant. We were given the lunch menu at the front door, this really confused me, later Addison eventually figured it out. The rest of the experience was nice. The comedy acts were funny, except for the second to last guy, that totally bombed, as part of his act was to call all women bitches. He was poorly prepared, and otherwise was not funny at all, and should not be invited back.“

“Just a few doors down from the Turf Club sits a genuine hole- in- the- wall gem. A unique dining experience of food with flavors to expand your pallet. We had the yebeg tibs and veggie sambusa and a just in case order of chicken strips and french fries, which, while delicious, remained largely untouched as the yebeg lamb tibs and veggies entree was the star of the table. A No Forks Allowed shared entree with flavors that dance in your mouth, the bread (is that what it's called?) comes rolled up and the protein sits on top like a carpet. You grab a little piece of bread and scoop it up and make a mess and laugh and eat and EAT. The sauce was a savory, smoky collection of herbs and with a Minnesota Nice kick of spice, if my 70 yo mom could handle it, you can handle it. The umami was out of this world (and helps me to finally be able to define the taste, actually) The veggie sambusa was a perfectly fried pillow of yummy veggies with a salsa for dipping and the chicken strips were fried to perfection with fluffy french fries. The server was fast, friendly, and offered suggestions and answered questions we had about the menu. This restaurant is an invitation to a cultural exhibition of flavor and best of all, our 2 entrees — both large enough to share with at least 3 people) 2 drinks, and 1 app were reasonably priced at under $50.00. If you're going to a show at the Turf Club, come early for parking and dinner at Dilla, you won't be disappointed. It is an excellent addition to University Ave, I am glad they found a home on our little stretch of road and we should welcome them with open arms and empty bellies.“

“Just good all around place for food and drink“

“We stopped at Manning's on 12/19/23 and ordered their burger & fries. The food was soooo good and the service was excellent! We will be back!!!“

“The Bulldog is a pretty standard place, warm beer, stiff drinks, but the reason I'm giving it a five star review is because of our server Hannah. She was AWESOME! She was also friendly, attentive and accommodating. We would go back to the Bulldog just because of her. Thank you Hannah for bringing some joy to our hang!“

“Twin Cities Purdue Alumni Club basketball game watch. Great food and atmosphere. Server was exceptional with a large group, different tabs.“

“I love the Steak and eggs!!!!“

“Recommend them. Just like the UK justice system only recognize two genders. A++“

“We used POUR Wine and Bistro for our rehearsal dinner and we were very pleased! We have been going here for years and can’t recommend them enough. Unique food and drinks, avocado wontons and the filet mignon with cheesy potatoes is my must haves. I love that when you are done eating you can bop across the street to the POUR Cocktail Bar for drinks and good conversation! We love POUR and we will always recommend.“

“The cowboy omelette is the best on the menu. And I haven’t found pancakes better than the pancakes served at Ole Piper Inn,“

“We are beyond grateful for our experience with Majestic Oaks Golf Club. Their team helped us create a truly memorable and meaningful first annual Birdies for Brave Babies golf tournament. From start to finish, they were professional, accommodating, and an absolute joy to work with. The course was breathtaking, the amenities were beautifully maintained, and every detail made the day feel special for our golfers and guests. Partnering with Majestic Oaks was an easy “yes,” and we cannot wait to collaborate with them again in the future.“

“Love Pappy's, but our waitress on the bar side must hate her life. Most unfriendly bartender EVER. She had blonde stringy hair. Probably mid forties. Didn't say a word to us, not a smile-nothing. We even tried to engage her in conversation.“

“I love to play bingo there!“

“I got into Minneapolis at 1130am, and wanted to get a bite to eat. Almost all of the eating establishments in the area were closed, except this place. Good food, good beer, great atmosphere, and great music. You can tell that this is a 'locals favorite'. Put this place on your list, as a good place to chill.“

“fun little bar few dart boards and a few pool tables“

“I had a delicious smash burger here! The tatertots were also very good. The ordering process is very easy as you find your own table and start a tab using a QR code and credit card. It was very empty when I went but the staff seemed quite busy. I think the vibe was nice but I'm sure it's more fun when it's full.“

“Absolutely love the Bulldog Downtown & LowerTown!!! Best burgers & Phillies ever!! So glad to be back!!!“

“Great eats! Can’t go wrong with a few local beers and some fish n chips!“

“Service great. I just have one problem their wheat bread is so amazing either being served on sandwich or just side bread I just can't get enough of that wonderful bread. Been tempted to ask to buy a loaf. Keep up with the great service and food. Thank you“

“Best food I’ve had. Byron who waited/bartender for us is GOAT. Thank you!!!!“

“Deb is the Bartender here. we just love her, people person, her Personality is infectious!! Great Food!!😊“

“Great service and food, love this place!“

“great place and great food!!“

“The bar staff was great!!“

“One of those ‘ole time’ places where you have regulars, people know so and so and such. I was looking for a breakfast place on a busy holiday morning and they were not busy. Service was great, food was good but sadly lukewarm. We had places to be and didn’t bother to say anything. We might try another time as the food was good even though it wasn’t hot. That has to say something.“

“Riversbend Bar & Grill is an awesome bar. The food is wonderful and the staff is great. Would recommend it to anyone We been going there for the last year and haven’t had any issues. I would give them five stars. The broasted chicken is the bomb.“

“A friend and I visiting from out of town stopped by here for a couple of drinks outside. It’s unapologetically a neighborhood dive bar that looks to have been there for maybe 100 years. The outdoor patio has about 10 tables, next to the parking lot. Our waitress and bartenders were super friendly and nice. They are famous for the “Original” roast beef sandwich. So we ordered it. I wouldn’t order again. It was fine, but basically a massive pile of meat on a bun. Maybe it’s famous for how big it is.“

“This place has character! One of the chefs, Nate, let me try a new creation of his. I’m not sure if it’s going to become a menu item but it was the best burger I’ve had in a while. The house kettle chips were so thin and crispy, also the best I’ve had possibly ever. I’m not a fan of buffalo or blue cheese typically, but I trusted his taste with this burger and boy I’m glad I did. 10/10! Everything went together so well. It’s not on the menu but I hope it will be soon. He called it the “Beefalo” I’ll be back for it soon!“

“The fact you can stop in here on a Sunday and get 10 jumbo wings for 5 bucks is actually an insane deal. It might just be a Sunday thing but they also had half off apps while we were there too. The wings were perfectly cooked, moist and the BBQ ones were delicious. Our waitress was also super nice so we left her a nice tip. It wasn't very busy while we were there which is probably because it's a holiday weekend. However, I could see this place getting super busy with the kind of deals they are offering.“

“We had yet another fantastic dining experience at The Exchange, and this visit truly exceeded all expectations! From the moment we walked in, the ambiance was vibrant and inviting, setting the perfect tone for a memorable evening. Our server, Angela, was an absolute gem, her enthusiasm for the menu and her attentive service made all the difference.

She went above and beyond, sharing her favorites and suggesting delightful pairings that enhanced our meal. Angela’s warm personality and genuine care made us feel like we were the most important guests in the restaurant.

We decided to try the Cuban sandwich, and it was nothing short of spectacular! The combination of flavors was harmonious, with perfectly grilled bread and succulent fillings that danced on our taste buds.

As we dined, the atmosphere buzzed with laughter and the clinking of glasses, adding to the excitement of the evening. Each bite of food felt like a celebration, and we savored every moment.

Overall, it was an amazing dinner that transcended our expectations, and we can’t wait to return for another culinary adventure at The Exchange!“

“Wonderful fish tacos!“
