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

“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!!“

“Phenomenal dining experience!!\nDifficult to choose from so many choices!! Quality is amazing, portions are generous, and scrumptious!!\nWe enjoyed the octopus, bruschetta with ricotta and tomatoes, mushroom confit, branzino and pasta with tuna. \nOur served, Sidney, was professional, kind, and very careful with our food allergies. She’s an incredible asset to your restaurant!!\nWho would have thought you could get such an incredible Italian meal in Minneapolis? This place is a must!!“

“It's Taco Tuesday and I was craving Mexican food, but I didn't just wanna go to the type of place you think of when "Mexican" is brought up... I'm fancy, so I wanted something a bit more upscale. I did a little bit of research and wouldn't you know it... Colita came up. So here's how it went! Atmosphere/Appearance: Set south of downtown and a bit west of The Mall of America on Penn Avenue is this gem. There is no private parking lot, but plenty of street parking to leave your fly ride. But once you walk up to the restaurant you can immediately understand the message they're trying to send. Everything looks so modern, straightforward with straight lines, grey colors and light woods. There is a small outdoor section where you can dine if you get lucky enough to land a spot there. Inside carries a very similar style with a little nod to the pueblos and architecture of the southwest. The decor is minimalistic and the "loudest" thing in the room is the live plant wall seated directly behind the bar, which was super cool. Service: I can't remember who took care of us, but we had no issues whatsoever. Food/Drink: I was able to try so many different dishes and drinks here and the list is below... 🍹: Xochitl In Love 🍸: La Clandestina 🐟: Tuna Tostada 🌮: Chicken Tinga Tostada 🦪: Seared Scallops 🫓: Tlayuda 🥃: Colita Old Fashioned 🥩: Lamb Barbacoa Tacos 🫔: Duck Tamal However, my favorite things were the Lamb Barbacoa Tacos, Duck Tamal and Seared Scallops, in that order. The food here is phenomenal, the drinks are excellently crafted and things are served tapas style so you don't get too full off of just one thing! Order a whole bunch of stuff and share with the table! Value: As I mentioned earlier, I wanted upscale and the priced dddooo reflect that. Lol. This is a nice place so be prepared to spend... Like you're downtown somewhere. In conclusion, I loved this place and I will come back over and over. Check this place out the next time you're in the area!“

“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!“

“This our first time in MN for appointments at Mayo Clinic. The staff were so welcoming and the food was delicious. 😋“

“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.“

“Delicious margaritas, fresh food, awesome staff!“

“They have great food with tons of vegan options and a wonderful patio! Today I ordered my favorite dish a roti wrap and it accidentally came with chicken instead of the vegan chickpea version. That’s never happened to me there before. They felt really bad about it and made me a new one and comped my meal and that of my friend. That is above and beyond an excellent customer service. I highly recommend.“

“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.“

“Awesomeness people awesomeness food. I love the young Viet people there. Am from Canada.“

“Awesome place to host an event!! Super helpful staff, great atmosphere and plenty of space for guests.“

“Excellent sushi & customer service! So delicious!“

“Great business that cares about our future, city, and ALL of the people of Minnesota! Viva NightingaleMPLS!“

“- Fettuccine pasta was very disappointing. The amount of crab you get for $40+ is shocking and the crab isn’t even that flavorful. The noodles have good consistent texture but is overpowered by the butter. The citrus notes and seaweed can’t save this dish. Would not order again
- Squid ink pasta was the best. A perfected blend of Italian and Japanese culture in one bowl. It consists of a black unique pasta noodle that is easy to eat, strung along with orange clumps of flavor
- Mentaiko lumanche pasta was okay, my sister really liked it
- The brick-oven Margarita pizza was good, very nice dough texture but the portion could be bigger
- Maitake karaage had a good crisp, chewy texture paired with a decent sauce and refreshing seaweed
- Gyoza had a neat appearance but nothing special taste-wise, same with the mushroom
- I tried their non-alcoholic drinks- Kosho, Royal and Akai Senshi. Both taste good but overpriced for the amount of drink you get. Especially for the Royal, $12 for a small milk tea you is egregious. Even for the Kosho, you get 4 tablespoons worth of juice in a huge wine glass. I’m not a wine lover so I can’t really say I enjoyed the Akai drink but if that’s part of your palate all I can say is that it tastes like red wine
- Service was stellar, they’re quick on taking orders and replacing plates/culinary. Staff are all friendly
- Interior can be a bit loud and cramped. The narrow hallway design forces the noises of the kitchen and other patrons to condense. The music they play is R&B but the volume could be turned up“

“What a fun place to meet up with friends! The best part? I felt so comfortable and cozy in this restaurant. It’s very boho and warm. We were a group of 4 and the restaurant has a family shareable experience with their entrees so we each got something different. We ordered the fried rice, French toast, wings and biscuits and gravy. It was super delicious! We also ordered drinks and my favorite part was that they serve a spoonful of their sticky rice as soon as you sit down. It was SO good that we raved about it and they brought us a second serving. The waitress was delightful and so kind. We had never been there for brunch so she did a wonderful job explaining the menu. We spent a few hours there eating and talking and we never felt rushed. The worst part? I don’t have really anything to add here. I’m not sure if I missed the parking lot but I found street parking easily. Prices are a little higher here but worth it in my opinion.“

“Super fried chicken sandwich. Great front of house service and great bartender. My wine also delicious. Easy to eat on your own here. Thanks!“

“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“

“Best food ever. A place to come if you want inspired, ever changing, non pretentious, and genuinely incredibly impressive breakfast and lunch!“

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

“Super fun vibe, FANTASTIC people/staff, great food and fun times.“

“was just there again and this place never disappoints!!“

“wife and I drove 6 hours to eat here. we have made the trip multiple times over the years. came in Wednesday early afternoon and got great service. I wish I could remember her name, I would give her 5 stars. love coal fired pizza.“

“Great homemade food. Friendly, well cooked dishes. Will be back“

“A taste of Cuba here in Minneapolis. I’m so glad I found this place.“

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

“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!“

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

“Great food and awesome service!“

“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.“

“Great food, great service!“

“Really good menu, lovely staff. An excellent place to enjoy coffee and a book there is a fire pit as well“

“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!!!!“

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

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

“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!!“

“I've been looking forward to my first visit here and I wasn't disappointed. The overall beauty and Italian/European vibe this place, has me in love. The ice cream is also beautiful and delicious. I had (if I remember correctly): Blood Orange Gelato, Strawberry Lemonade Gelato and Asian Lemon Sherbet. The customer service is fast and friendly. This is now my go to place for a cool treat.“

“This is my favorite brewery in Minnesota.

The beer is excellent and the building is charming inside and out.

My wife and I found a quiet corner of the outdoor patio yesterday beneath the shade and spent a fabulous Memorial Day here.

My sole complaint is that the bathrooms are too far from the taproom and even further from the outdoors space.“

“Incredible quality sweets and super kind service! Can't beat that! We go almost every weekend!“

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

“My burger has always been a solid choice for a quick bite. I have always done takeout and my order has never been late. One time I ordered to the wrong store and no questions asked they sorted it out for me and got me out of there as fast as the burgers could cook.“
