“This place is awesome! The food is amazing and the portions are insane! Get the tinga torta to get your La Maria Taqueria journey started, or the burrito, or the birria, or the sopas, or the quesadilla... you can see where I'm going with this. It's a total surprise in such a small area to have such affordable, delicious, wonderfully crafted Mexican food. The staff is friendly and hard working, and the horchata is real and sooo good! Best work lunch spot!”

“Bungalow Inn is a well-kept secret of an AMAZING spot for dinner, drinks, brunch and everything in-between!! We had dinner there and were BLOWN AWAY that every single thing we tried was EXCELLENT! Father’s Day brunch was BRILLIANT! $27 for literally ANYTHING you could want for brunch — I’m really picky about breakfast, if I’m going to shell out and not make it at home, it better be good! This FANTASTIC LAYOUT far exceeded our hopes/expectations. Do yourself a favor and TRY THIS PLACE! You will be glad you did!!”

“Worth it on every level. Gluten free menu items and options, ramen was delicious, and the candies at the end were tasty. The woman running the place was kind and super helpful. Going back next time we're in town.”

“just stopped in for some great Mei Mei's Cookies for the 4th of July weekend. The chocolate cookie with the Reese's Cup inside was the best! A great selection of cookies for everyone. Make the little ones smile when you show up with the Cookie's to Celebrate. Happy 4th of July everyone!🌟 🇺🇲🌟”

“We recently got married (October 2024) and Lake Elmo Inn catererd our wedding. It was absolutely AMAZING! We had the prime rib carving station and the walleye as well as the duck soup and salad. Our guests are still talking about the food. We decided to upgrade to the "LEI Experience" which means each of your guests get a warm hand towel, an intermezzo sorbet, and a chocolate covered strawberry!!! We were over the moon with the service on the night of the wedding and all our communication with LEI throughout the process. Special shoutout to Kayla G. who was the most patient, professional, and kind event manager! She answered every single one of my (many) questions and she did so with a smile! On the night of the wedding, we were SO impressed with how fast the servers were able to get to each of our guest tables and keep the flow going. It was seamless, seriously. We cannot recommend Lake Elmo Inn Catering enough. They've total pro's and just know that you'll be in good hands. Thank you again to everyone on the team for your hard work to make the dream come true!! <3”

“One of the best restaurants on the east side of the twin cities, if you love wine with awesome food,this owner along with the staff, which is key, know how to serve the two together to have an unforgettable dinner. The wine shop has some phenomenal choices of wines you will not find anywhere else. Stillwater’s Domacin is a destination ❤️🍷🥂❤️”

“There are a lot of fancy places to eat in Stillwater, Minnesota, but you're never going to get anything better than this meatloaf. And if you're lucky enough to have Mary wait on you, all the better. I'm seriously not kidding. Don't skip this Meatloaf.”

I have ordered coffee online and also stopped at the shop. Very great staff, super personable and are doing a great job at building community within their coffee shop. Highly reccomend. Yum!☕️”

“We had Old Southern Bbq cater for our wedding and it was absolutely an amazingly positive experience! The director of catering, Amy, was so helpful and on top of everything. The catering team was absolutely wonderful! All of our guests ranted and raved about the food all night, especially the potato salad and the cornbread muffin tops. Would definitely recommend!”

“great service, food was ready quickly, and the food was delicious. price point was definitely good as well.”

“Were there last Saturday night with friends for dinner and the festivities outside. Had a great time and very impressed with the service. Some of our party were very late (got lost), but the server and host both were very accommodating. It's been years since we've been there from out-of-state, but thought both the food and event were great. Only small criticism, get a band that plays mostly German songs - don't need to hear oldies from this country at German event (e.g. Neil Diamond?).”

“The other night we were headed to a friend‘s house and were in need of some dessert to bring along. My husband and I didn’t realize that Saint Croix Baking Company closed at 5 PM and it was already nearly 4:50 as we were making our way to the shop. I called and spoke with a woman named Olivia. She could not have been more helpful or delightful to speak with. She was more than happy to assist us with getting some desserts and said she would be around a little bit after close, wrapping things up at the shop and not to worry about arriving after 5 PM. She had our order boxed up and met us at the door when we arrived a few minutes after close. Good customer service is so hard to find these days! Olivia was not only friendly, she seemed genuinely excited to help us and wasn’t put out by our last-minute request whatsoever. Wonderful job, Olivia! Thank you so much for saving our night and helping us get some delicious desserts. Everything we ordered was incredible. Nice job on all accounts, St. Croix Baking Company.”
