Restaurants near Mendota

“Dimly lit, fun experience, great food (enjoyed some of the best hand made fries I've ever had..). The drinks were good, not the best, but good. I will be back”

“Great food, nice bar, reminded us of home”

“Food was nicely presented and tasty. The dessert was fantastic. Didn't have any non-alcoholic options to pair with dinner.
Biggest negative was how loud it was in the dining room. We felt like our servers were yelling to present the dish. It was uncomfortable how loud the room was with only 20 or so people in there. I felt it really made the dining experience rather chaotic. My companions and I were unable to have an awesome experience due to the noise.”

“food was amazing, I reccomend the prime rib dip. drink were perfectly proportionate. bartenders jackson and jake went above and beyond, drink never went empty and my food came before my girl does.”

“I have been here many times. I love the food. They can back from COVID shut downs pretty strong. \nThe crab ravioli is my favorite.\nI miss the pre-Covid half portions.”

“Great service and food!!!!”

“We were here for dinner over the weekend and everything about this place was phenomenal we tried multiple things off of the to share or not portion of the menu and loved every bit of it. The whole grilled fish our waitress mentioned rotates depending on what is available fresh and it was cooked to Perfection and probably our favorite thing all weekend. The cocktail menu is unique and everything that we had the opportunity to try was delicious I highly recommend doing the cocktail flight to anybody who doesn't have a favorite spirit. Staff was incredibly friendly and knew what they were talking about if you had questions. To those looking at going here reservations are a must!!!! Great atmosphere as well”

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

“We had a fantastic date night at Joan’s! Highly recommend! The food was incredible. Perfect pacing, portions, wine pairings, and the flavors have you closing your eyes to experience each bite. One of the best meals we have ever had. Our server was thoughtful and friendly. Great dining atmosphere. We will be back!”

“The staff are incredible and the food is outstanding I've never had anything like it, not to mention the bar is so gorgeous I could look at it forever. My husband and I have been here three times and we will be back again, soon I hope! This is the perfect spot wether you are celebrating a birthday or anniversary, or just want to try incredible food some place new! I will be back soon with my mom just because I think it's so magical everyone must experience it. Bûcheron is a must!”

“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!”

“Loved this spot! It's good for light lunches and dinners. They food was very good, I had the special, which was super yummy! They can accommodate kids and people with disabilities, there is a wheelchair accessible restroom. Their patio is very decent sized. I think the indoor space isn't as large, so something to consider when it isn't nice out. They have beer, wine and cocktails.”

“I agree with previous poster. I will be dreaming of Francis now. Door was FABULOUS! Atmosphere is quaint. Francis is my new favorite”

“Very expensive for us but it was a fun experience. The food was good and my son who's in a mission to order French fries at every fine dining restaurant was very pleased with his $15 fries! I wasn't blown away by the drink I got, for the price I was hoping for something that went down a little smoother.”

“Everything we’ve had from Nixta is just so good. More than once we’ve said “this is the best ______ I’ve ever had” about various menu items. Cant recommend enough.”

“We've been several times, food and service have always been excellent, recommend the mussels and the Cassoulet.”

“This is one of my favorite restaurants. Great food and lots of vegetarian options. I never miss to order momos, garlic naan, and kataar aaloo made with jackfruit. Portions are good too! The owner of this restaurant is very friendly and always stops by to ask if everything was good. Definitely a great place to try Nepalese cuisine.”

“First time visitors but we will definitely be back. Tyler was an amazing server and made great appetizer recommendations. The food came out swiftly, was well executed and abundant. We cannot wait to be back soon.”

“Delicious coffee and baked goods! Our team loves picking up from your Cafe! 💫”

“Omg this place is so adorable! The lantern and light decorations are so cute and really make it a comfortable space. The price is very fair and the food (hand rolls and Vegas roll) exceeded our expectations! We are definitely coming back”

“Everything we had was great! Normally we enjoy steak but this was a great change that he and I both enjoyed! Friendly staff also at the bar!”

“No place like it. Have been going since I was 12. Best blueberry pancakes in the world”

“Hyacinth is a keeper. Creative food, well prepared, small but extremely well chosen wines. Portions were large, a bit too large in my view. Hyacinth is one of the few restaurants in the post Covid dining world that is daring to show us how innovative dining can be done.”

“I’ve never been disappointed at this restaurant. Interesting wines and great food.”

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

“Pretty unique and cool place! If I lived near by, I’d eat here all the time. Not many places like this anymore. Excellent, reasonably priced food, great staff and service. Highly recommend!”

“I drove by this hidden gem weeks ago and finally was able to stop in for lunch today. I gotta say that this is some of the best tasting food I have experienced in Minnesota since returning home. I tried the Picadillo meal which was perfectly seasoned and not over salted like some places do. The rice was a perfect consistency and a freshy made salsa added a little kick to the meal. The customer service was top notch and I will definitely be back to try some of the other menu items. A+++”

“Excellent food! Great wine!♥️”

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

“Zakia has wonderful, healthy, tasty food a well sized menu. I go here for work with my co workers. The service is fast and friendly and the food is amazing.”
