“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!“

“My friend and I had an incredible time at Owamni. My compliments to the chef. Truly one of a kind experience. The food was outstanding from start to finish ( presentation, flavor profile, texture, all natural and full of character). There’s not a place that’s more unique than Owamni in Minnesota, in my opinion . I highly recommend this establishment, and I wish you prosperity and success.“

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

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

“I made reservations for 6 to celebrate my wife’s birthday. We drove an hour to come here after a recommendation and it was worth it! We had great service and all of us loved our food! Definitely will be back!“

“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!“

“Today was my first time eating Herr and it was very good.“

“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!“

“Friendly service in a fun atmosphere. The food arrives incredibly fast. The flavors are fresh and vibrant. Highly recommend the Brussels Sprouts and the Cubano Arepa“

“Great tour by Cade. Beautiful facility and even better whiskey. Can’t wait to go back!“

“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!“

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

“Always the best food. Very large place with a beautiful patio. It is one of my favorite places to go. Everything is always good. Only took a photo of my item last night which was the shroom burger. Beautiful baguette and tasty cheeses to make it the perfect burger. Friends had a poke bowl, Salad and another burger.

My friend needed Gluten Free and they were helpful.

At the bar they also have THC drinks 🍹 One of my favorite places to get wings. Also one of my favorite appetizers is the Ahi Tuna Crisp.

Servers will help you makes choices if you have not been here. Friendly staff!

This is a great option in the North Loop.“

“I’ve eaten here before many years ago but they recently did a big marketing push and it got my attention. They had a Bogo deal so I grabbed a Jalapeño burger and a Turkey burger as well. Both were super tasty.

The pickup was immaculate and the young lady who greeted me and handed me my order had a genuine smile and looked like she was enjoying her work. The cooks were hard at but joking around with each other and seemed genuinely happy to be there.

I’m going to do my best to get back here as soon as I am able.“

“My favorite summer restaurant! Some favorites: fried oyster basket, fried fish, tacos, catfish po’boy“

“Stopped here to celebrate the start of the school year. We sat outside on the nice patio and the staff offered our kids some chalk and bubbles which was a great friendly & personal touch. We had mango, chocolate and salted caramel gelato and a chocolate shake. They were all really good. We also got a basket of fries and cheese curds, both were good. We will be back to try food.

It was a great neighborhood spot that we hope to frequent and I would recommend to friends and neighbors to check out.“

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

“Great coffee place! What makes this place special is the owners providing a separate building for AA meetings that run from dusk to dawn. Now that is Good Karma!“

“Food was amazing and staff were friendly and accommodating. Had the mushroom pizza and a salad with a coworker . Loved the casual atmosphere outdoors with some shade to sit—you can’t dine in essentially as all seating is outdoors which myself and coworkers appreciated .A nice lunch break from the typical work environment. Will definitely be going back again.“

“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.“

“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!“

“I came here for the first time last week and I am so happy I decided to dine. The staff was absolutely phenomenal. Cyrus our waitstaff was very attentive, knowledgeable and outgoing. He explained everything in depth and provided recommendation based on our interest. He inquired about our dietary restrictions as well which made his recommendations even more personable. I ordered the sweet potatoe korokke, maitake karaage and the mentaiko lumache. My partner ordered the pork gyoza and the squid ink peppardelle. Everything we ordered arrived prompt and was absolutely phenomenal! The sweet potatoe korokke and the maitake karaage was my favorite due to the flavour, presentation as well as the texture. I enjoy crunchy yet flavourful dishes. I also LOVED the mentaiko lumache, it was very creamy and light. I would absolutely return as this is one of my favorite restaurants. Highly recommend due to service and the quality of the food.“

“What an awesome way to spend sometime. Beautiful place and staff is supper friendly“

“We hosted our son's first birthday party at Minneapolis Cider Company. The entire experience was five stars - from the friendly staff to the food and cold cider. We highly recommend having your event here or simply stopping in for a drink and pickleball.“

“If you love old world supper clubs. The "Lex" is for you. Sadly I can not give it 4 stars until they up their game and get an espresso machine. Imagine a beautiful brass Espresso machine sitting behind the bar! Anyone who remembers the old Williams Cafe in Uptown knows what I am talking about. I can't think of another restaurant in their price range that does NOT offer Espresso in the Mpls-St. Paul area.“

“They have wonderful chai, a good breakfast and very chill vibes. Great little coffee shop!“

“Lovely atmosphere with great staff and fabulous cider! Watching the younger generation curling was so fun!“

“Great craft beer and wonderful atmosphere!“

“The best breakfast in the MN. Everything on the menu is delicious 🤤“

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

“My husband and I come here every Valentines Day. We love the seafood, the prices, the beer. I can't get over the fish soup which, with bread, makes a very satisfying winter night meal.“

“The best kept secret in Saint Paul. Sunset beer and pizza in this tall grass wild flower patio soothes my soul like no other bar or brewery. The beer itself is simply tasty while maintaining a sophistication other breweries lose with their hyperbolic flavor and naming schemes. Truly the best there is.“

“I love whiteys and the bartender Jazzy is one of my favorite bartenders when I come back home and visit. Being in the industry I love visiting her.“

“Great neighborhood vibes and great neighbors. Drinks are top-notch, snacks are creative, staff is wonderful. Glad to have them be so nearby.“

“This place is not inexpensive; but the food is worth every single penny. It’s unique, it’s vegan, it’s delicious, and it’s healthy. The atmosphere is very comfortable. (although the music was a little bit loud for conversation). I shared the cauliflower tacos and hummus plate and we each had a glass of wine and took the yummy yummy yummy yummy yummy cheesecake home (the cheesecake seemed expensive at the time; but I will purchase it again and again. Every taste was Yum Yum Yum Yum.). a lot of times when I go out to eat I think; I could’ve saved money and just ate at home. However, I truly felt my money was well spent! The food was fresh. Very tasty. The arugula salad was phenomenal, even though it was very simple. I need to come back here way more often. Thank you very much for your dedication to healthy, tasty, vegan food. Also, their dedication to quality continues year after year. I think that’s wonderful.“

“My boyfriend and I are very frequent brewery-goers and we have somehow turned into semi-beer-snobs so we tend to ask questions. Our dog also has grown to expect treats every time we go to a brewery. Kai gave us in-depth detail about every beer we asked about, his personal recommendations, gave us samples, gave our dog some treats, and completely made our experience here. We love our beers, our dog loves her treats, and we are all leaving home over the moon!“

“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!“

“Being from the East coast and working in the Philly area, I have always said that Philly Cheesesteak's here in Minnesota don't taste right..... until I went to Tono's in Saint Paul. I reminded me of home so much that I bring my family from an hour away to enjoy the food.“

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

“They made our day! If I could give ten stars I would“

“I’m a huge fan of this coffee shoppe. The culture of friendship, hospitality, and delicious coffee is astounding. I’m here every day!“

“Always love stopping by mudslinger's while out running errands. The only downside is that the line can get long in the mornings, especially on weekends. Despite this, they work quickly and I love supporting a small local business!

Kid-friendliness: They have a kids cocoa“

“Fantastic flavors, great service!“

“I have almost lost my desire for pizza until I had one of your fantastic meat lovers pizza from your St louis Park location. The perfect amount of sauce, cheese,meat. Gadzooks I'm wishing i had one right now! I'm hoping my next one is just as good as my first. Great service and awesome people.“

“Amazing food!! We met the owners, and they are so sweet. Everything we ordered was INCREDIBLE!!! Wings, Brussels sprouts, deviled eggs, fish and chips, tacos and a hamburger!! I can’t forget the crème brûlée!! We will be back! Thank you Molly and Thomas!!“

“They have some of the most unique brews I've had in a while, like a nitro IPA, and an aquavit barrel-aged IPA. My favorite of the bunch though was their TOKKI, a Korean rice lager. The bartender was also very friendly, and their space has big garage-doors that were open, so there was tons of natural light and cross-breeze.“

“2024 (Behind in posting):
Wonderful space to match the food and the service. Let the pictures speak for themselves.

Tip - Back out the Health and Wellness surcharge BEFORE calculating the tip (part of the sub total).“

“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.“
