“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“

“Yummy 😋 Awesome Service & food was top notch!!! Definitely going back!!!“

“I ordered from the brunch menu (Classic breakfast) today and the food tasted decent. They did run out of wheat bread and I only received 1 piece of toast (didn't know if that's normal). The service was great and atmosphere was nice. I can recommend BLVD as a place to go eat and hangout.“

“Delicious barbecue chicken and peach tea. Excellent service. Very nice patio.“

“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!“

“Great food, amazing staff, fun atmosphere!“

“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!“

“The point of this place is to get drunk and socialize, and you can absolutely accomplish that here. They've ruined the atmosphere with the stage they added a few years back for bands. I know the intention was good, but bands could fit a smaller footprint without the stage, and it's a single room that absolutely does not need elevation. We played there for years, and having room for people to dance made the experience wonderful. Those days are gone.“

“I’m a local to the area and decided to go to the reveal rooftop to have some birthday drinks, and it was the best decision. The night was great, the atmosphere was great, the drinks and the food were great too. Brian helped to take care of us and he did a fabulous job!“

“Good food. Can’t go wrong with pizza. Service in the bar area not the fastest, but wasn’t in a huge hurry.“

“JJ’s is a staple of Golden Valley. It is by far the best place to watch any sporting event because they have TVs everywhere. This a NEIGHBORHOOD joint. The prices are neighborhood prices, not city prices. The staff is friendly. Great bartenders. Well priced drinks. Trivia Tuesdays. Bingo Saturdays.“

“This is a genuine place where you wish the walls could tell a few stories of the fun and excitement.. This is where you know that hardworking pays off in the way of a good cold beer and all your neighbors are there for the same reason.. 🇺🇸“

“We live in the area and on prior occasions had not been impressed with the menu. That has changed with the most recent menu revamp. My family can be pickier eaters and everyone enjoyed their dinner. The bone-in short rib was a hit. The restaurant and bar atmosphere is outstanding. We requested a booth by a window and were accommodated. A great overall experience.“

“Was at Moes's Char House Chanhassen with Sarah Morgan . Pulled $250 in Pulltabs. The waiter, an Excelsior Dufus, would not let me use 3 credit cards, he demanded cash. I tipped him $30 and then the manager yelled at me for shorting the tab. $50 in cash had gone missing from the table as the Excelsior Man giggled at me. I tipped him $30 more and left. Don't go to Moe's Char House!“

“Phenomenal Michelin-star worthy tapas! We attended with friends based on other good reviews and were blown out of the water with some of the best bites we’ve had in a very long time. We ordered 7 tapas for 4 people and shared. Highly recommend the paella marinera, but every dish we ate was incredible. There was not a bite we didn’t enjoy.
Service was incredible, kind, and explained the menu well - Rene was our waiter. He also timed the tapas perfectly so it was a beautiful experience.“

“We had the best experience ever at the Red Cow. It started with the hostess telling us she would take care of us even though we didn't have a reservation. Making eye contact with a genuine smile. Rare. Delicious food, excellent, attentive wait staff and the chef even made an appearance in the dining room. Did a quick walk through smiling at his customers as he went through. Special treatment must be Red Cows game plan. Love it!❤️“

“Found this place while oh holidays. It is fantastic, the food is beautiful and the servers are so friendly. There is something for all the family. My kids loved playing in the arcade and my husband was in his element with all the sport. I loved the cocktails. Being from Ireland it was lovely to meet a fellow Irish man Darren, I think his name was. We had a fantastic time and will be back on our next trip.“

“today was my first day visiting this location and it will not be my last. The food was spectacular and the service was outstanding. The atmosphere was very welcoming. I can’t believe it took me so long to find this beautiful gem. I will definitely be returning soon.“

“Great experience, such friendly, quick service, food was delicious, steak & mimosas for breakfast were outstanding!“

“We ordered an online pickup yesterday after a long day of travel, but I accidentally selected the Kansas City location. The staff went above and beyond to help us out! They quickly sorted out my mistake and had our correct order ready in just 20 minutes. The food was delicious and the customer service was fantastic. Highly recommended!“

“Can’t wait to go back for great food and service“

“This place is legit top restaurants in msp, why??? Because they have talent and imagination. Any one can buy great ingredients and high end products, but can you make sidewalk grass , spruce pine , lingcod , wildrice and strawberry taste good ?(Not a real dish just something off top of my head) That's talented and worth talking about , the folks here have talent. And if your looking for adventure of the palette look no further.“

“Wonderful! Great atmosphere and food.“

“When asking the question - What should we do for dinner? Many times the answer is Red Roosters! Always great!!“

“I love this place so much! Jac & JaK go here for almost every achievement in our lives and let me tell you from the manager Chad, to the amazing bartenders Johnny & Emma the entire staff is PHENOMENAL. They remember the drinks I love, the food is consistently amazing and the vibes are impeccable. Emma has grown to be my favorite personality, they’re such a good time & the king salmon is 🔥🔥🔥10/10 recommended & Emma for sure deserves a raise“

“I ate at Milton's VVB tonight with my husband. The food was amazing, but the service was even better! The waitress was honestly the best waitress I've ever had! So friendly and funny! I was blown away! Shout out to Wafaa for taking good care of us! We hope to be able to visit Milton's again and again!“

“excellent service food tasted great best happy hour out there“

“Good beer. Tasty food. Football to watch. What else can a guy ask for?“

“Always a great time at Excelsior Maynard’s! If we come by boat or by truck! Parking is always a bit of an issue, a parking ramp is GREATLY NEEDED in that area! Food is great inside or out on the Wharf. We have fun throwing a game or two of bags, watching the boats go by & people watching while sippin’ on some cold beverages from the bar! You can’t go wrong with a day or night out at Maynard’s in Excelsior!“

“I went here for breakfast thinking I could order off a menu, but learned it was a buffet option that might not have offered me food choices in line with our dietary restrictions. I was dining with a long-time friend and we had both travelled far to meet up. Rachel on staff saw my consternation when we submitted to eating the buffet a d graciously offered various alternative solutions in an aim to accommodate us. Besides that, she showed empathy and care at an extraordinary level which made this experience something even more special than it already was intended to be given it was a small reunion. I am a loyal Marriott customer so I appreciate this level of service given the circumstances. Thank you for providing a wonderful atmosphere for the breakfast we were consequently able to eat here.“

“Totally chill spot definitely for the older crowd A lot of people knew each other bar staff was very nice and people at the bar were very welcoming and allowed me to sit in between them and didn't make me feel awkward so it was pretty cool experience I've heard that they have a comedy store here as well as live entertainment on Tuesdays so check it out pretty bomb“

“Indoor - Fall/Winter Outdoor-Summer Excellent Service ♥️♥️“

“I have been to Pub 42 many times either by myself or with a party up adds of 6 people. The atmosphere is inviting and friendly. We have had the pleasure of having Riley and Iza as our servers on many occasions and I can’t stress how kind and accommodating both of them are, I have celiac disease and they are knowledgeable about the ingredients and the process of the food so that I am safe when eating there. Including the double checking and making sure that my food is gluten free, and with very limited chance of cross contamination. Both do a great job of making sure the food is good and arrives at an appropriate time, while being friendly and kind and connecting with us as patrons. I would recommend pub 42 to anyone and everyone and tell them to request being seated in either Riley or Iza’s section to guarantee them the best of service available.“

“Twin Cities Purdue Alumni Club basketball game watch. Great food and atmosphere. Server was exceptional with a large group, different tabs.“

“Great people work and hangout at the SLP American Legion. Good food at great prices.“

“Great staff and food. Very fresh has a fun golf club machine“

“Such a great new place for us to have dinner! Our only two complaints are that the boneless chicken was a bit tough and the tater tot hotdish had 6 tots total, but the spicy peach sauce was amazing and the hotdish had a ton of meat and cheese. The meatloaf was amazing as well as the mushroom gravy and the garlic mash. Will definitely come back!!“

“the family atmosphere. we will be back“

“My mom and I stopped in for lunch and we were greeted immediately and chose a table to sit at. I chose their spiciest burger (the name escapes me) and my mom chose the pepperoni pizza. Both were delicious, but if you don't like things too spicy, ask them to put the spicy sauce on the side for your burger. It was a lot of heat, but still so good! Atmosphere was calm and relatively quiet as there were only a few customers at the bar and surrounding tables during our visit. Our server was also bartending, and he was very attentive. I'd definitely stop back in whenever I happen to be on that side of the cities!“

“Ashlea S was the most amazing server I’ve had at a restaurant in a longtime. She was so pleasant and joyful. She made great suggestions to make my meal better. She moved with grace and efficiency throughout the restaurant from table to table with the same charm and joy. I would hire her in a heartbeat. And, the walleye and wildrice soup were both great. Bravo!“

“Went there with a big crowd to celebrate family birthdays. The food was yummy and the service was excellent! Plus the waiter with the handlebar mustache made the whole table laugh. 😀“

“Great service. Great atmosphere. Nice way to start an evening out with friends.“

“Can’t wait to go back for great food and service“

“Tuttles has it all and totally stepped it up with the renovation of the dining area and the Live Music. Tuttle’s Eat, Bowl, Play is a powerhouse of fun, great food, great service, incredible music and togetherness with Community! You MUST stop in for a bite and please do stay a while to go bowling and later see the live music.“

“I can’t say enough positive things about the catering at the Maple Grove location. I had ordered sloppy joes for my Labor Day weekend camping trip. When I went to cook the meat, I discovered that they had given me taco meat instead. Which was, of course, disappointing. I called them the next day to let them know, and they couldn’t have been more apologetic and accommodating. No excuses were made. They just asked how they can make it right. I told the catering manager that all I really wanted were the sloppy joes and he insisted that he provide a side of my choice;anything I wanted. They made it all available for me the very next day and added mac and cheese to my order. When I arrived, the manager greeted me and asked me if there was anything else I might need. Customer service!! That is so rare these days and goes a long way!! I will continue to go to Hy-Vee because of the way I was treated! And all of the food was delicious!! Highly recommend!“

“Awesome and very friendly staff“

“I took my nephew and his roommate to the Thanksgiving buffett today. The holiday decorations were very festive and pretty. The food was delicious, the drinks were reasonably priced, and I enjoyed the experience. The 21 year olds were full and happy when we left. I would go back for a similar offering in the future.“

“Great place for a child’s birthday gathering! Super family friendly (yummy fries too!). Very affordable! We were here on a Friday evening and it was not busy which made me a little sad for the place. I understand the comments about the guy at the desk, but don’t let that stop you; it’s such a quick interaction. He did end up being very nice and helpful with a couple things we needed (lighter for cake candles and plate and utensils). If you’re looking for somewhere fancy and updated, this probably isn’t the place for you. I would recommend this bowling alley, we’ll be back.“
