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

“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.”
“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!”

“La Doña is a fantastic place to meet up with friends for beer, tacos, hablar en Español, and Trivia Mafia. I invite my friends to Trivia Mafia on Tuesday nights, and we have an incredibly fun time with the whimsical trivia. We have even won gift card prizes some times! Today before Trivia Mafia, I ordered chips & guacamole, with extra guacamole and cilantro mayo. I also ordered the steak quesadilla. Very delicious!”
“Went to brunch with coworkers and had a BALL!!”
“Me and some friends went and had a great time; Good value for food. I ended up getting a Buffalo chicken sandwich with some fries and that was great. Highly recommend for Conventions too.”
“I didn't get food but great vibe, nice drinks. The patio is a great photo opportunity. The food smelled good wish I hadn't already ate. fun events always happening.”
“The pizza was good, very thin crust but large slices. Very helpful and entertaining employee! We are visiting with The National Veterans Wheelchair Games and it was a good place to have a quick lunch.”
“We have been enjoying this restaurant for over 30 years! They have the best Chinese food I've ever had.”
“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.”

“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 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!”
“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.”

“First time dining here. Overall it was pretty good and we would go back! Would not get the mussels again because it was borderline too salty and just kinda boring. The cocktails were amazing and the cheese curds were one of the best! The prime rib sandwich was good too.”
“- 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”
“My favorite brunch in the Twin Cities. Mochi biscuit was so good that I went home and recreated it a week later. This is also one of the most well designed eating spaces that I've been to in a while. I don't believe that there's a 'must get' element on this menu, if you order to your tastes you'll likely be very pleased with what you get.”
“Milly’s is an absolute gem in Minneapolis! The wine selection is impressive, with a great variety of both alcoholic and non-alcoholic options that catered perfectly to our group. The food, especially the charcuterie boards, was delicious and beautifully presented. Don’t miss out on the French onion soup! Our server was attentive and made sure we had everything we needed throughout the evening. A special shoutout to Timothy, the sommelier, who was incredibly knowledgeable and helped us pick the perfect pairings for our meal. And the owner, Brandon, was so welcoming and personable, making the whole experience even more enjoyable. We’ll definitely be back! Highly recommend!”
“My husband and I chose to celebrate our one year anniversary here today. It was both of our first times dining at Broders’ and we enjoyed everything about this wonderful experience! Upon arriving we were attempting to take a selfie photo outside and one of the employees opened the front door and asked us if we would like him to take our photo. Tyson so kindly took several photo angles and opened up the door for us as we walked in. It truly felt like we were being welcomed into someone’s warm and inviting home. Our sweet waitress helped me select the most delectable glass of wine I have ever tasted. Words cannot explain how delicious the pasta was… we lapped up every single drop and were in absolute food heaven. To top it all off… we were treated to a free dessert of our choosing along with two chocolate cocoa truffles on the house!! After we finished our meal we went across the street to their storefront to purchase some pasta and sauce to enjoy at some point in the coming weeks. We will definitely be back for all special occasions and certainly for our two year anniversary. If you are looking for a once in a lifetime experience and meal this is the place!! Enjoy!”
“Truly impeccable service and such a welcoming atmosphere that makes you feel so comfortable. The menu provides such vibrant dishes that carry you through a story that gives each bite with such flavor. I’ll definitely be back, I was happy to be introduced to this establishment by Jaelin, it is places like this that you absolutely need to try.”

“I've been going to this Taco Bell for years, for one reason. They have the BEST drive thru and I've never had an issue!!! Even when there's a line, it moves sooo much faster than the Burger King and Mc. Donald's which are right next store. (All of which you can see while pulling in. If there are equal lines, I pick Taco Bell everytime!) I work retail, so, time is a thing. This Taco Bell is my favorite and I recommend it ALL my friends. Even over the other locations. I should have posted a comment years ago. Great job everyone!!! Management and all the employees deserve a raise!!! Thank you, everyone, for doing a fantastic job!!! 10 outta 10!!!”
“I haven't been to White Castle in years and so happy to see they have this location. The workers were very sweet and asked if I had any questions about what's on the menu and they did answer without any issues nor attitude. I ordered some standard burgers without cheese and some chicken sliders with the onion petals. All were good and I do plan on returning next time I go to the library. Maybe it'll be a weekly routine of coming by and grabbing lunch before going to the library. Definitely recommend it.”
“My kids just treated me to a birthday dinner at Italian Eatery! It was a fantastic experience all the way around - food, service, and atmosphere. The entrees were delicious (we ordered a variety and shared!), and my dessert - the crostata al limone (a lemon tart) was out of this world! This was my first time at Italian Eatery. I’ll be back!”
“So good! Excellent customer service and the food is to die for! 100% recommend this restaurant to all my friends and family!”

“Stopped in for a late lunch on the patio. Was interested in a bitters & soda and the server recommended mixing the rhubarb and cardamom, which was delicious and refreshing. Followed that with the Chix Correa sandwich and a side salad. Wow! Really creative flavors and well-executed. Could tell everything was made from scratch and with high quality ingredients and care. Also the decor was fun and hip, the music top-notch, and the staff kind. I look forward to coming back soon!”

“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.”
“My girlfriend who isn’t GF loves this just as much as her fav non-GF bakeries in the city. Just go here and try it and you will be coming back all the time lol
Some suggestions for management:
- if there could be more DF options that would be awesome.
- being open on Sunday’s would also be awesome and I feel like it would be the busiest day of the week with people getting baked goods for the week”
“Shout out to Christos Greek Restaurant and love to Gus, a truly amazing person who has kept this wonderful landmark alive and well for so many years! We have never had more delicious food anywhere! My choice was the lamb shank which was cooked to perfection, so tender it fell off the bone and didn't need a knife. Dessert for me was the mousse au chocolat (always) and having tried it at every restaurant that offers it, Christos will never be outdone. It should be mentioned that the salads are always made with what our daughter calls "happy veggies," always fresh and beautiful! the soups are all wonderfully special and "home made" as well. No one comes even close to the love and care that goes into this dining piece of heaven. Enjoying your delectable meal at Christos feels as good as a warm hug from your mom. Salut to happy tummies! :)”
“We’ve been to Lynette multiple times for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. During every visit we’ve enjoyed delicious food, beverages, and really wonderful service. The physical space itself is really beautiful too! It’s clear there’s a lot of heart and experience at work in Lynette.”
“Northeast MPLS- what a fantastic find, this is truly a small town bakery, small batch production. Their reputation is their best PR! We tripped upon it, while on a quest this weekend to support SMALL/LOCAL businesses in MPLS.
Definitely recommend the apple fritter, no canned apples there! The lemon bars, peanut butter donuts and glazed donuts all thumbs up. New to me was the Paczkis. They stole the show in my book.
As if the pastries weren’t enough to bring us back (and they definitely are) the price was amazing! 6 “donuts” less than $17… Light, fluffy, DELICIOUS, good thing we live 5 hrs away, I’d be there everyday!
If you haven’t found Sarah Jane’s yet, WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR ? I’m a donut snob, never been a fan of chain store donuts; you can tell the difference between mass production and small batch, small batch will always win the gold medal! Sarah Jane’s rates as top 3 apple fritter of all time for me…”
“Amazing food and amazing hospitality. Staff is really polite and sweet.”
“Great business that cares about our future, city, and ALL of the people of Minnesota! Viva NightingaleMPLS!”

“We had a fabulous dinner with another couple. Food was great, table was great, service was very good. Disappointed that no staff told us that 26% charges were automatically included. My fault for not inspecting the itemized bill closer i would have expected staff to share that a 21% gratuity was already included (not to mention an additional “administrative “ fee was also included) before I added an additional 20% gratuity.”
“The service was excellent! All of the staff were friendly and did a great job. Food was excellent. 3 of us had different steaks, and all were fantastic. We received orange/ chocolate truffles at the end that were to die for. It was a wonderful dining experience.”

“Great experience tonight! It was my first time visiting. Robert was SO great! I’ve been wanting to come here for a while. Robert took great care of us. Food and drink suggestions were perfect and he answered any and all questions we had. Very attentive. The manager also stopped by and greeted us. Food was fresh and delicious! I cannot say enough amazing things about this place 🥰”
“Well, you ruined me. I can never go out and get a ribeye at any other restaurant. I have one to two ribeyes a week at high end restaurants. Yours was supreme! There is no second place! The service was top notch from the hostess to the server to the expeditor to the table clean up. I only wished they were not 240 miles away!!”

“The birria ramen is in a class by itself. I dined at the Uptown location and the food was excellent and the service was great. Even with a language barrier we worked it out! Good service is at an all-time low so it was refreshing to be treated w such kindness and consideration. Thanks and we'll be back!”
“Vegan East is renowned for its delectable Carrot Cake, which is a must-try for anyone with a sweet tooth. Their cupcakes come in a variety of mouth-watering flavors, including Cookie Dough and Red Velvet. Don't miss their Gluten Free Cosmic Brownies – they're a perfect treat for any brownie lover. What's more, all their treats are 100% vegan, meaning they are free from any animal products. This makes Vegan East a fantastic destination for those who follow a plant-based diet or anyone looking to enjoy delicious, cruelty-free goodies. If you're in Minneapolis, make sure to stop by Vegan East and treat yourself – your taste buds will thank you!”
“I finally made it to Marty’s Deli and while I am not a breakfast sandwich kind of guy, this is the best breakfast sandwich I’ve ever had! The taste and texture were super fresh and scrumptiously delicious; and it satisfied me for several hours! I will be back to try a lunch sandwich in the very near future.”
“The food was incredible! The service was awesome. It was so nice to be able to step over to the grocery store to purchase a few of the things that we got to try at lunch and find some other really unique items as well. That Halvah!❤️❤️ I hope to make this a regular stop”

“Highly recommend, incredible fine dining experience. Especially when paired with wine selections. We go at least twice a year and have never been disappointed.”
“I had the privilege of trying Channa Kitchen and meeting Anisa at the Linden Hills Farmers Market. This was my first time trying Trinidadian food, and it was absolutely DELICIOUS. First, I tried the eggball ("mashed potatoes seasoned with aromatics and herbs, wrapped around hard boiled egg and fried in seasoned bread crumbs"). Then, Anisa gifted a plate of the doubles ("Turmeric-infused fried bread containing curry chickpeas and served with tropical chutneys") to try. All of it was excellent and I would definitely get all of it again. I highly recommend. Anisa was the SWEETEST and she treated us like dear friends from the moment we approached her stand. Her energy is radiant and her passion for sharing exceptional food and creating a delightful experience is unforgettable. I look forward to seeing her again and trying more of her offerings at the next farmers market, and I hope to make it to her location in south Minneapolis to pick up food before the next market because I cannot wait to try more. Channa Kitchen is a local gem, and I am excited to share this with my loved ones!”

“I can’t begin to say how much we enjoyed our dinner here. Highly recommend it!”
“We had a fabulous dinner! Our waiter was Patrick who made our evening grand! Highly recommend this steakhouse!”
“Exceptional pizza and service. Not to mention the old fashioned was one of the better ones I’ve ever had. This is now a must visit place for me when I’m in town.”
“Love this spot. Great owners. Great feel. Good food. One of my favs.”
“Super fried chicken sandwich. Great front of house service and great bartender. My wine also delicious. Easy to eat on your own here. Thanks!”
“This place is amazing! They do not disappoint. We come here all the time before Vikings games! Chao!”
“AMAZING SERVICE, WONDERFUL atmosphere, well priced, FANTASTIC FLAVORS, serving portions as expected for tapas. Two of us ordered about 8 dishes and shared gor dinner, we were stuffed - could have had only 6 but wanted to try so many bcuz they were so tempting by descriptions, and they met all expectations!! They accommodated our dietary restrictions without hassle. If we lived here, we'd be regulars!!”

“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.”
“Wow, I have been looking for a great Indian place in the area, and I've found it! I had ordered takeout from here a few years ago and thought it was good, but Chef Latish obviously has done a lot of work to improve the scope of the menu and the flavors. As a vegetarian, I also appreciate their very large selection of options. My buddy and I ordered the aloo mattar (very good) and the malai kofta (truly outstanding!) and we can't wait to go back! Thank you for the delicious food!”
“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.”
“Incredibly friendly staff, so gracious to our large party. Food was fresh, appetizers were hot and tasty, vegetables were crisp and delicious, and the Szechuan soup base was approachable spicy- they didn't hold back on the numbing spice, thankfully. A wonderful place to go for a hotpot meal with a staff that clearly cares about serving top-quality meals.”
“2nd time here, again, food was fantastic, up there with the best I have ever had, well worth the visit”
“Best food ever. A place to come if you want inspired, ever changing, non pretentious, and genuinely incredibly impressive breakfast and lunch!”
“This has been my favorite Korean food place for over five years now. The service and food quality has only gotten better and I love practicing my Korean with the waiters that speak it!”
“My favorite brunch in the Twin Cities. Mochi biscuit was so good that I went home and recreated it a week later. This is also one of the most well designed eating spaces that I've been to in a while. I don't believe that there's a 'must get' element on this menu, if you order to your tastes you'll likely be very pleased with what you get.”
“Great tour by Cade. Beautiful facility and even better whiskey. Can’t wait to go back!”
“This our first time in MN for appointments at Mayo Clinic. The staff were so welcoming and the food was delicious. 😋”
“We've been several times, food and service have always been excellent, recommend the mussels and the Cassoulet.”
“These folks have known how to do fine dining for decades. One of my favorites growing up and now I take my own kids.”
“Classic diner comfort with a modern update on the menu. Lots of great cocktail and beer options, but not so many that it’s not kid friendly. Have been here twice now, and both times food and service has been excellent.”
“Amazing food. My girlfriend and I had the lamb for appetizers, and Halibut and the pasta (forgot the name) for entrees. All tasted great, and we also had the chocolate mousse cake for dinner, which was very flavorful!”
“Got some pretty good noodles here and my wife got some sushi. They open all the holidays because maybe they don't celebrate them. But hey, the food is tasty”
“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.”
“If you find yourself in Minneapolis/St. Paul and are even a little bit hungry- I highly recommend you try this cozy, friendly, delectable local restaurant. Every thing I ate and drank was amazing and the owner was a gracious and talented restaurateur. #tripadvisor and #lonelyplanet and #moontravel u should check this place out!”
“Great atmosphere! So many people having a great time. Ordered the Dragon's Milk Braised Beef Ribs with snap peas and mash. So good! So tender and flavorful! Gravy was chef's kiss!”
“Unbelieveable experience and a must try. Freshest and tastiest food I've ever had.”
“MUST visit. korean bbq pizza is out of this world. Amazing appetizers, mock and cocktails, pizzas are all awesome . My waiters were harriet and moses both were such dolls. 5/5 stars 100/10 will be returning asap.”
“The meals are consistently fantastic. I’ve never had a bad meal at this restaurant over the last few years. The ingredients are high quality, fresh, and well prepared. The dishes come out delicious every time. It makes dining incredibly easy when I know I can choose anything on the menu and it will be great. The service is also incredible. Knowledgeable, prompt, and friendly staff. The dining and bar areas are equally beautiful in distinctive ways. Very pleasing to the eye. Zelo is a must try downtown, and if you do, it will become one of your go to restaurants for a nice night out.”
“Truly impeccable service and such a welcoming atmosphere that makes you feel so comfortable. The menu provides such vibrant dishes that carry you through a story that gives each bite with such flavor. I’ll definitely be back, I was happy to be introduced to this establishment by Jaelin, it is places like this that you absolutely need to try.”
“Always enjoy our Red Cow experiences. Food is consistently good and unique. My wife had her fave of turkey burger with sweet fries and I opted for the Ahi Tuna salad. Both delicious and my salad thankfully tasted very close to a California sushi role.”
“Immaculate machines, and great food. Drink prices are pretty reasonable too”
“We hired Brasa Catering for our wedding and couldn't happier with the food and service they provided. We received multiple comments that it was "one of the best wedding meals they've had" from a few guests. Not only was the food delicious, but the crew was extremely kind and went above and beyond for us. Thank you again for everything, we'll keep you in mind for future events!”
“My boyfriend and my kids along with the dog came here. We made reservations for the covered outdoor area and showed up a couple minutes early and they were still able to seat us right away which was excellent. It was surprisingly a really nice area as this was our first time visiting the restaurant before we went over to the falls. Everyone enjoyed their food and the portions were large. Our waiter was very attentive, they treated our dog well and the dog menu is super cute!!!The only odd thing from the whole experience was I asked for a tequila and sparkling water and she asked if I meant a skinny margarita??? Idk how that correlates at all I thought it was funny though. Either way I would definitely come back with our dog it was a nice relaxing atmosphere to enjoy dinner with family and a few drinks.”
“I, quite literally, had the best meal of my life here! We shared the samosas, grilled scallops, grilled salmon, butter chicken, and a ginger chaitini. The flavor in these dishes was something I have never experienced at any other restaurant. They genuinely have a menu that caters to everyone’s likes and tastes. The service was wonderful and the owner was incredibly kind and eager to share his passion with us. I will 100000% be coming back and I highly recommend you go as well!”
“Absolutely stellar experience. The staff is top notch, the food is incredible, and the seating is super comfortable. Always welcoming, always quick, most amazing tofu I’ve ever had. The wall of live crustaceans is a little intense, but no denying this place is amazing.”
“We went to India Kutir on a wendsday evening for my partners birthday. The server got us a free app and we ordered 3 entrees to share. All 3 were excellent with the Lamb Curry being the stand out. Service was excellent as well. 5/5 will return might only order 2 entrees next time. We had lots of leftovers.”
“Let’s start by saying I feel like it was that scene in the matrix where that one guy wants to be hooked back up to the matrix and just enjoy fine wine and steak! This was my night at the Tasting room.
We asked for a hand made flight. The owner came over to our table and listened intently to our tastes and said, yes I will make you a flight I think you will like. When we got the flights both my wife and I were so pleased with each of the selections. After we finished our flights we ordered a full glass of our favorite.
The wait staff was fantastic. Kind thoughtful and good listening.
We shared a charcuterie board, a salad, salmon and for dessert we had the lava cake. Each bite of it all was heaven.
The mood was chill and cozy and we could not have had a more relaxing night out. We are for sure returning. And very soon mind you. I cannot recommend the tasting room enough.”
“Stopped for dinner before a show at the Orpheum. The bartender made the drinks to perfection and recommended some great food choices for us. Will definitely be back to try some more off the menu. Friendly service!”
“Holy buckets this was such a good dinner! Went with friends for a birthday dinner and the service, food, and vibes were 10/10. Our server was perfect. Wine was tasty. I only wish I could have eaten more!
Thanks for a wonderful night 🖤”
“The food was incredible and our server Emily was amazing! Do not skip the guac!”
“We had a fabulous dinner with another couple. Food was great, table was great, service was very good. Disappointed that no staff told us that 26% charges were automatically included. My fault for not inspecting the itemized bill closer i would have expected staff to share that a 21% gratuity was already included (not to mention an additional “administrative “ fee was also included) before I added an additional 20% gratuity.”
“Best local joint to watch Women’s Sports in Minnesota, especially for MN Frost games!”
“Fun! I got a shrimp roll, karage and Miraculum. Yum, yum, yum!”
“I loved the food Ms.Grace was really nice and I loved the painting I would highly recommend this place”
“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.”
“Incredible flavor combinations that reward you for stepping out of your comfort zone!”
“Instagram worthy cocktails, amazing food, unique items like a GIANT Mozzarella Stick. huge pretzel, even a Ribeye. The decor is pretty sweet. Live music, but Top40's, 42 massive TV's, a true sports bar that the area is lacking, and open til 2am”
“Love this place. I feel comfortable going there by myself and just sitting at the bar.”
“Stopped in to get to go meal while at a conference at the hotel next door. Staff were welcoming and accommodating of my request, even let me have a water and tea while waiting. Food was excellent. I live in Saint Paul but will be making town hall a new place to stop with friends!”
“This is a great casual place to grab a drink…..or have some really great food.…or take a gab with your friends (or strangers)… they do have a beautiful community table!”
“Food, atmosphere, and drinks were all fantastic. The Owner/Chef Joel has created something special at this gem nestled in a Minneapolis neighborhood. We had a large party for a friends pre-wedding dinner and the staff handled it great. From the apps to the desert, you can’t go wrong with anything you pick off the menu. We were all tasting each others food by the end of the night wanting to try EVERYTHING! Some have stated a smaller menu and prices, but then say the food blew them away…I for one like to pay to keep amazing food and ingredients an option. Can’t wait to bring my wife and other family members in the Twin Cities to do it again.”
“The food and drinks were great. Highly recommend this place. Tequila selection is amazing.”

“Serves was unbelievably fantastic the server Troy was amazing!!!. He accommodated us perfectly and made our night brighter. I will be coming back as soon as possible!! The food was outstanding and we had too many left overs. We were able to have so much food for our group of five. If you want a special night out this is the place to go!!”
“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.”

“Great experience tonight! It was my first time visiting. Robert was SO great! I’ve been wanting to come here for a while. Robert took great care of us. Food and drink suggestions were perfect and he answered any and all questions we had. Very attentive. The manager also stopped by and greeted us. Food was fresh and delicious! I cannot say enough amazing things about this place 🥰”
“Well, you ruined me. I can never go out and get a ribeye at any other restaurant. I have one to two ribeyes a week at high end restaurants. Yours was supreme! There is no second place! The service was top notch from the hostess to the server to the expeditor to the table clean up. I only wished they were not 240 miles away!!”
“First time there this weekend. Highly recommend. Great food. The best part was the waiter who serviced our table. It was so refreshing to have a person waiting on our table with patience, a sense of humor and a concern about how we were enjoying our meals. Dominic made the experience 100 percent better than what it may have been. Our group can not thank you enough Dominic to adding to an amazing time.”
“In Fargo, service is not great. i had one bite of my meal and told waiter he could take it. He never asked why, if anything was wrong, just grabbed it and walked away. I wasn't expecting anything other than for him to know why my meal was not hardly touched. He never came back to table until he brought us the bill.”
“We celebrated birthdays with the most delicious breakfast meals, bottomless mimosas and so much conversation. Before we left, we bough all the cupcakes and cookies from the case and all of us were so excited to have them on our ride back to Mankato. We continued our day and our car was stolen from a parking lot on washing Ave. Of course we are sad about the car loss but we can’t stop talking about how much we are devastated by losing our copper hen cupcakes and cookies. Luckily one of our friends in another car had purchased 2 cupcakes for herself and we all got a bit of the best cupcakes in MN.”
“This place was the bookend of our trip here. We started with it and ended with it.
The food, vibe, and at atmosphere are great!
The first time around was the outdoor patio, and then we did inside the next time around on a chillier day.
Could not recommend it more! This is the place where you meet other cool people and wanna buy them a beer to say 'Cheers!'”

“The owner is very rude his staff are a bunch of Liars my wife and I was there to have lunch on January 9th the parking Lot was full of ice I fell injured my left hip and left hand my wife went in to let the owner know I fell him or none of his staff came out to see if I was ok or to help me up the owner said to my wife that he was not the owner of the building and that he told the owner of the building to salt the parking lot early that morning and he never showed up since my injury I been trying to get the owner of the building information even there insurance or legal team information no one wants to respond this manager is trash the food is trash I don’t recommend no one eats there I will post everything about what I’m experiencing with this incident”
“Absolutely stellar experience. The staff is top notch, the food is incredible, and the seating is super comfortable. Always welcoming, always quick, most amazing tofu I’ve ever had. The wall of live crustaceans is a little intense, but no denying this place is amazing.”
“I came here on a Sunday night to order takeout, but there were a lot of open tables and I decided to eat in. The host was very nice and gave me a great table and the atmosphere was cozy on a winter night. I ordered the Insalata and Pepperoni pizza and a nice glass of wine. It was all excellent, but far too much food for just me (I was by myself). I took the leftovers home, but the salad did not save well (I threw it away) ~ so my recommendation would be... if you are alone and want salad and pizza, order it ~ but mainly eat the salad knowing you won't take it home, and some of the pizza knowing you will take it home (it reheated fine, but was best at the restaurant) or get one or the other. I would definitely come back, it was a notch above.”
“I’ve been wanting to eat here for a while and today was the day! I had the Breakfast Burrito and my friend had the Poutine. Both were incredible and the best vegan food I’ve had. I’ve been vegan for many years, but even those who don’t typically follow a plant based diet will love this place. Great coffee and friendly employees. I’ll definitely be back.”
“I don’t usually leave reviews, but this place deserves it. From the moment you walk in, the vibe is welcoming, the space is clean, and the energy just feels right. The coffee is consistently top tier smooth, rich, and made with care every single time.
But what really makes this spot special is the people behind it. My brother Mohamed is one of the hardest working, genuine individuals you’ll ever meet. He puts real passion into everything he does, and you can feel that in the service and attention to detail here.
Whether you’re stopping by for a quick coffee, getting work done, or just hanging out, this place delivers every time. It’s more than just a coffee shop. it’s a community spot.”
“This is such a cute café that combines coffee and Asian culture. They carry some of the cutest stationery, Korean beauty products (e.g. Torriden, Anua, Aestura, Round Lab), yummy Asian snacks, blind boxes, plushies, and even kitchenware. I was obsessed with the stickers! I was surprised at how pricey they were about $5–6 per sheet and $4–6 for individual ones, but I still bought one because I couldn’t help it, hehe.
I visited during an event, and parking wasn’t difficult. There’s paid street parking right in front of the store and around the neighborhood. There’s plenty of seating, both at tables and by the window. I didn’t have to wait long for my order. I also loved that they offer unsweetened matcha latte, which I don’t usually see at other cafés.”
