“Have loved everything I’ve ordered at Maggie J’s. They are very quick and have the greatest customer service! So thankful to have this cute little restaurant in Mapleton.”

“The food is super delicious, the owners are amazing people too!”

“Great food and service. Love the Linda's Melt.”

“Each unique location offers unique vibes. This one brings the vibes with a MSU twist. It’s an awesome get together over caffeinated is spontaneousness kind of place.”

“Took the kids for “May the 4th” to get some pizza and check out the Star Wars event. It was a great time and the kids loved it! Thanks for putting this on and as always the pizza was great.”

“Preordered online, and went in for pick up. Didn’t realize until then that they ran out of a lot of fruit teas and fruit drinks so we could only get strawberry fruit drinks. Beautiful indoor backdrop for pictures! Staff was knowledgeable and kind. If you want to order, only option is a kiosk but doesn’t seem like they can program when they are out of certain things.

Parking: Sitting across campus and other restaurants/eateries (Chipotle, Asian Wok, crumbl cookies), bank, and a liquor store, so it can grt busy!”

“Unfortunately, I don't get here often enough. Since they don't have a license to serve alcohol, they allow guests to bring their own wine and beer. Just 30 minutes south of Mankato.”

“I would not consider myself a "foodie" but i do have a restaurant bucket list, i started seeing posts for a new taco spot in mankato & i had to go, well cuz its tacos 😆!! Thankfully the boys are always down for my lil adventures....lets be honest though i had them at the word tacos for this one 😆!! I rarely do food/restaurant reviews but i am tonight!! We tried Tako Kato & i give it a 10!! That may be partial to the best dates ever but.....its super cute, small & quaint. They do have a dine in option & the esthetic is super cozy & fun!! The boys both did the hot cheeto burritos made to their likings & i did the maverick burrito with the restaurant recommendations both twists on american & authentic mexican food. Food was hot, fresh & delicious!! Fries are even a choice as a side, which parker opted for & they were better than alot of burger joints, D did the chips & sauce & i did the rice....all very good!! The staff super friendly we were checked on by the waiters & the cooks! & they even offered a fun family picture to add to their polariod wall, making our visit a personable & fun family night, even though i wouldnt say its the traditional family sit in restaurant. Very authentic with a flare for a small little spot!! Needless to say a fun night with my boys!!”

“We had a fun time today and topped it off with the best late nite cookies around 💜💜”

“I will have to preface this review by saying that I'm definitely going to give Johnny B's a second shot. My first experience there was subpar, but I feel like it could be much better. I tried their fries, cowboy kegs, buffalo chicken tater tot kegs, and the philly cheese steak sandwich. The fries were nothing to write home about at all, they tasted under salted and almost store bought. The cowboy kegs were definitely a cool premise, like hush puppies but with cream cheese. They didn't taste as good as I hoped but I still enjoyed them. The buffalo chicken tater tot kegs had me excited, but the potato and chicken flavors didn't mix well and it also didn't taste as good as I expected. They did give me a fat cup of bleu cheese though which I was super happy about. The philly cheese steak sandwich was definitely the star of the show, delicious, but I do have to remark that I wish it had more cheese.

Overall, the food was 6/10, barely above average, but the place was clean, the waitress was nice, and the overall experience was more 8/10. I want to return because I want to try the bacon ranch tater kegs and the more famous menu items. I'm sure that while the food I ordered was subpar, other options must be way better. I'll update my review next time I visit”

“Great food and selection of beers on tap. Nice stop for a bite and a drink if you want a little change of pace. I don’t even ski. We just come here because we like it.”

“Good beer, good people there. I enjoy my time there”

“Taco Bell has been a favorite of mine for over 45 years when we used to live in California. My husband loved their Bellburgers and I would always have a bean tostada and we would get a cup of refried beans & cheese for our 2-yr.-old. Nowadays I love the Crunchwrap Supreme. It's so handy to eat and not messy like most tacos.”

“Wonderful experience! We placed a large catering order with individual meals/drinks for each member of our party. The Stadium Village staff was great! Called to verify delivery time, individually packed/labeled each meal, brought two extra small drinks just in case, and then refused a tip! Would HIGHLY recommend this location! Thank you, Stadium Village staff!”

“Food was hott and taste great.. the manger and employees were very kind even with me losing my voice.. had a amazing experience all around.. i wish all restaurants were so kind”

“We were passing through, saw D Bar 169 was open and stopped in for a drink. The people were super friendly. Miranda was tending bar and was welcoming and very sweet. We met local farmers Julie and Kevin Paap, who were super nice and introduced us to the other locals including the mayor and the fire chief. Anyone who doesn't experience real folks like this are missing out! D Bar 169 is a 5 stars place I would hang out in anytime!!!”

“Love our local Berry Blendz! The owner is the best in customer service and I look forward to each visit after the gym.”

“New owners, and management. This place is great, consistent Thai fare, and Pho. Customer service is also good. Have ordered both take out and eaten there, with good experiences.”

“Food is awesome. However it feels like a fire code violation with shoulder standing room and one single door for an entrance and exit. Also, there is zero coordination at the door for a waiting line. Most places take a name and how many or give ppl a ticket ect., Folks just walk right past others who've been waiting to be seated and then immediately get a seat right infront of others who've been waiting.”

“This place is the absolute take-out gem of Mankato! It’s family owned, homemade Chinese food with generous portions for the prices. I often split up the entree and save some in my freezer to pair with rice at a later date, which makes the price tag more reasonable for me. They truly seem to always try their best. I attribute occasional delays due to the fact that it’s a small business who can get a high influx of orders at once and may not have the staff to accommodate. If you choose Yu’s, I’d encourage patience and understanding if waits are longer, as it seems to be a small family team that has been feeding the college kids and families of Mankato for years. I’d recommend the sesame beef and lo mein with a crab ragoon lunch special for affordability and a generally shorter wait time. I hope they stay for many more years to come.”

“Had a campus visit today with my senior!!! After the tour, we decided to stop by the campus Starbucks bcuz COFFEE is our jam! The people were amazing and friendly!! Even at a busy time for them, they were all smiles! Nice way to end a campus visit, and a great way to make a new possible student feel welcome!! ❤️?”

“This is the most amazing store I have ever been to, when I tell you that Kaitlyn is the most awesome worker I have ever had take care of me. She handled the cinnamon roll with care and compassion. The way she frosts the cinnamon rolls with the silky buttery textured frosting is incomparable”

“Fantastic ice cream. I was served quickly. Employees were prompt and knowledgeable. It even smells good in here, like baking waffle cones!

Floor was extremely sticky so that you could hear each step I took, which kind of dampened the experience.”

“I've been coming to Mankato off and on for work for several years. Sometimes you just
need some noodles and company. This one is by far the best one I've ever been to. The place is always clean or someone is at least working on cleaning it. The food is always hot. The staff is very friendly and nice and everyone is trying hard to make the dining experience great.”

“Fast and clean!”

“Solid location that’s busy which means they often have fresh ingredients- unfortunately can get a little too busy and they seem to prioritize DoorDash/online orders. One night I waited in line for 40 minutes only to be told I couldn’t get double chicken because they were running low and needed to ration. Ugh.”

“The guy working tonight (6/11/2024) around 9pm deserves the biggest raise. He makes the best sandwiches EVERYTIME. I usually put chips in my sandwhich.. but I was so distracted by how well the sandwich was made that I forgot to even open the bag before the sandwhich was gone. 10/10!”
