“Munkabeans is my go to morning place for meeting my neighbors on important issues!“

“Nice patio, comfortable interior. I go to work, drink an Icee or two and eat their free popcorn. Friendly staff. Right on Mainstreet Hopkins.“

“Great experience as our first time!“

“Awesome place!! We walked in with a group of 11 at 8:50 pm, and the kitchen closed at 9, but they told us no big deal, go ahead and order food, which was so kind! The food was amazing, and they took time to explain everything. We had plenty of room to sit and enjoy ourselves, with three levels of seating. Even when it was time for them to close the taps, they gave us a heads up, but because we were talking too much we forgot to grab a last drink, so they turned it back on for us! They could have been so annoyed with a large group of chatty women, but instead they were so hospitable! Can't wait to return!!“

“Local fare done well. Great service!“

“Amazing food in a comfortable setting with great service.“

“Had lunch there today and it was great! Loved the baquette and beef and pickles and chips! And cream soda! Also, attentive and kind staff!“

“We held our company Christmas Party at their beautiful restaurant and had such a great time! The staff were so attentive and wonderful to interact with throughout the whole evening! We ordered an array of food and our employees couldn’t stop talking about how fantastic the prime rib and KFC (Korean fried cauliflower) were! The talk around the shop about this event and the delicious food went on for days! We all had such a great experience from start to finish. They made it so easy to plan, set up, host and tear down. We would highly recommend anyone looking to host a party to come here! Now if you are just looking for a bite to eat for a date night or family night out, they also have you covered. No matter what plans you have this is the spot to be! A huge thanks to Lake and Irving for all they did for us and a massive thank you to Chris the chef! That meal was better than we could have ever expected!“

“Creative menu, delicious devour-able food, friendly staff, fun, laid back atmosphere. And totally gluten-free!“

“Amazing food. We shared 4 plates. Each one better than we could have wished for. Possibly the best Paloma I’ve ever had. The manager Natalie took tremendous care of us. Fabulous experience.“

“always wonderful perfect thin crispy crust perfect ratio of toppings today we had the El Camino - excellent but the spicy arbol chili red sauce was too hot for us we should have asked for mild or just pico de Gallo. our son will enjoy it“

“I am sure many reviews begin this way, but it’s true here: I rarely write reviews. We visited the Rochester location on 5/18, and we were immediately pleasantly greeted. The entire menu looks so tasty, so I ended up ordering a Wedge Salad, the Five Cheese Macaroni & Cheese to split, and a 60/40 with Truffle Fries. I LOVE Wedge salads, but this one, this one was special - the most delicious wedge salad I’ve ever eaten. The addition of the dill was unexpected but soooo welcome. The macaroni portion, even as split, was so generous and very tasty. The truffle fries were very flavorful, and the burger - I am ashamed to say I can’t attest to it because my eyes were much larger than my stomach & I had to take it to go. The rest of the crew with me all agreed their food was also delicious. If we ever have the fortune to travel back to the area, we agreed we would all come back to Red Cow. Our service was also top notch, I wish I could remember our server’s name. She was very sweet!“

“The venue is a little too “homie” for my tastes, but the food was amazing!“

“Phenomenal Panama Louisiana infusion! So delicious, I absolutely cannot wait to go back and try more menu items!! 🤤🤤🤤“

“Nice atmosphere! I don't drink coffee, but I enjoyed their chai latte and they had a bunch of delicious looking pastry options. Also love that the profits support youth futsal programs!“

“Wow!! First time here and it did not disappoint!! Delicious!!“

“Great service…great food…great prices!“

“Myself and four friends were in Minneapolis for a few days on a visit from Ireland and had breakfast here a few times. Food was delicious. Great choice on the menu. Service was brilliant. Staff friendly and efficient.“

“Love this place. Kitchen is open late. Drinks are tasty. Food is excellent. Staff is so friendly. 😁“

“Forgotten Star has a great and historic location in Fridley, Minnesota. The staff is stellar and the beer is good. Forgotten Star is a shining example of what craft beer is. Great space, great people, great beer. They are part of the lifeblood of the community. There is always plenty going on. Whether that is a kid's story time, curling or disc golf leagues. Sign up for a Mug Club membership. Enjoy a treat from the Hodegpodge food truck. When you have the chance, check out Forgotten Star.“

“As usual, Lola does not disappoint. We were a party of 4 with a 7 PM reservation. We arrived grossly early (25 minutes) and could not be seated because the restaurant was so busy on a Monday evening! Service, as usual, was prompt and friendly. The food was excellent across the board. We especially liked the seasonal starter, caccio a pepe sweet corn. We had the Calabrian cauliflower, the kale salad and three pizza shared among 4 of us. We left with the inner smile, indicating food made with love and joy, that identifies a five star experience. Since Anna Kim has closed her other restaurants we hope that Lola will keep going. It keeps the standard for pizza in the Twin Cities high and delicious.“

“Amazing. Just go and you won’t regret it! Was a little skeptical about the Italian/Japanese fusion aspect, but everything we had was VERY good. I’m kicking myself for not remembering our servers name, but medium length red hair and beard. Knew everything about the menu, ingredients, cocktails, etc. One of the best servers I’ve ever gone on an experience with. Fantastic all around. Super fun culinary journey. Thanks team!!“

“Best ice cream in the Northwest Metro. Lots of unusual flavors. Their coffee ice cream is soooo good. They let you sample any flavor.“

“Everything was absolutely phenomenal! Great service and even better dinner and dessert! Thank you again for everything!“

“Great food and awesome service!“

“Tried for the first time tonight and it won’t be our last! Fast, delicious and great service and atmosphere! A new favorite for sure!“

“Food was very good. My mom got the shrimp lemon and chicken pasta which was FANTASTIC 10/10 on that. My dad got the pot roast stroganoff which was also fantastic another 10/10. I got the prime rib French dip which the sandwich was fantastic, however the au jus was very bland which was disappointing. The tater tots were awesome. Would definitely eat here again!!“

“A must visit in the north loop! Great beer! Amazing people! The perfect place to visit before a twins game or any day really… Cory, thank you for the hospitality. I look forward to coming back soon!“

“Unbelieveable experience and a must try. Freshest and tastiest food I've ever had.“

“Nice large venue both the indoors and patio. Their beer menu is more traditional/European styles, which is my preference.

They have an outdoor ordering window and indoor ordering lane which helps reduce the awkward talking over someone’s shoulder type ordering many bars have.

The hefe-mosa and witbier were my favorite.“

“Lots of fun. Great place to hang out.“

“Fantastic flavors, great service!“

“This is my first time trying Scramblin’ egg and let me tell you it is the best breakfast burrito out there and will totally be back and hopefully can stay as a brick and motor store as I think they will be successful at the Bloomington location!!!!“

“The Pineapple Boat was Amazing! Loved the street tacos!“

“This is some of the best pizza! If you’re in the area definitely stop in and give it a try. The owner was very polite and accommodating as well.“

“I have eaten here couple times and thr good is great. Love the farm to table food. I am a big person on fresh quality and not prepackaged foods and this place is amazing for the food. Both times I was there around brunch on a Saturday and the breakfast menu was really good both times. I got a breakfast bowl with carnitas meat and it was amazing. Lots of flavor, texture, color in the bowl from crispy potatoes to delicious carnitas to a smooth and silky and cooked perfectly. The pickled stuff in it was different and a great contrast to the other parts. The micro greens are a current favorite to added nutritional boost and getting these on both plates here was awesome. The bowl was a lot of food added meat made it right amount for me, the added meat not necessary but highly recommend.
The eggs benedict was a different take. It is one of my favorite breakfast menu items. This take I could appreciate the concept but it was a 4 star for me. I really liked the cornbread that you can tell is fres and made in house if not at least near by. That was a great variant that I may have to acquire when I make it at home. The ham was delicious, it said maple cured and we use only pure at home no maple flavored but the maple flavor I was hoping for more of a pop from, maybe using a little maple syrup in the hollandaise sauce? Anyway the eggs were perfect and topped with micro greens as well. The hollandaise was, well not enough, or jot enough of a flavor, it was minimal and really felt like an after thought rather than a main focus which when ordering a Benedict the 3 things are required, a great hollandaise that is fore front, a take on ham, and a base. They had 2 of 3 spot on. Thus I would say 4 out of 5 for it great meal still don't get me wrong but could have used a touch more hollandaise with a bit more of a flavor or focus on that aspect. Great place will be back. Also like how they jave some fresh produce, baked goods, and farm fresh meats in coolers there.“

“If you need your party catered, this is the place to go. Staff: Easy to work with, on time, good prices, friendly and very accommodating. Food: Gorgeous/amazing presentation , fresh, hot, professionally packed. I ordered from Red Rabbit in Saint Paul for my work holiday party. Everyone LOVED the food and the portions are generous. I was able to easily and beautifully display it. The timing was perfect and everything went smoother than I had hoped. This is your one stop shop for all of your party food needs. Hats off to the chefs and management for making our party wonderful.“

“Very good Iced cream the best of Minnesota“

“awesome food, service and atmosphere. thanks for making our lunch awesome Sara.“

“Fun! I got a shrimp roll, karage and Miraculum. Yum, yum, yum!“

“Sonny's was amazing! The moment you step inside the atomsphere is very cossy and aesthetic. The gelato was some of the best I've had, and the patio space was very beautiful and nature filled. I would recommend this place for a date or even a place to study!“

“After a long day at a work conference, my wife and I were looking for a memorable dinner experience—and Fhima’s delivered in every possible way. From the moment we walked in, we were transported to a different era. The 1920s Art Deco interior is absolutely stunning, with glowing chandeliers, velvet textures, and a bar that could easily be a movie set. It’s classy, cozy, and quietly buzzing with charm. We started with the sampler appetizer—an incredible way to warm up our palates with bold, layered flavors. My wife ordered the Chicken Tagine, which came beautifully presented and full of rich, comforting North African spices. I went with the Wagyu NY Strip, which was grilled to perfection and paired with saffron rice that was as fragrant as it was flavorful. The rosemary chimichurri on the side added a nice kick. For drinks, my wife had a well-balanced Cosmo, while I couldn’t resist their signature Call From Istanbul—a dramatic and smoky twist on the classic Old Fashioned, served with flair (and actual fire). What made the night even better was the attentive, personable service from Eli and Will. Their recommendations were spot on, and they made us feel welcome without ever being overbearing. Whether you’re a local or a visiting foodie, Fhima’s is an absolute must for date night or any occasion that deserves something special. We’ll be talking about this meal for a long time—and already planning our next visit.“

“My wife and I have been to La Mesa a handful of times and have never been disappointed( including our second date, its a great date spot). La mesa is a hidden gem tucked away in the neighborhood with a great outdoor space in the summer. In my opinion, they have some of the best pizza in the city The corn pizza is my favorite and the weekly special last week was slow roasted pork and chimichurri sauce which was delicious. Great place, good service, and nice atmosphere and would recommend to anyone looking for a fun date night or something different than a bar and grill. I just recommend to a co worker and she really enjoyed it!“
