“Great food!! The crab cake was Amazing… don’t forget to get an Amazing margarita 🍹“

“My steak was just ok. Not very seasoned. But he Alfredo was spot on and so was the Zuppa Soup. My server was amazing. I cannot remember her name but I overheard her telling another table she was a kindergarten teacher. So if you see this, you rock 😍“

“Excellent food, excellent service!“

“We had great lunch and a wonderful server, Amy!!!! We sat in a booth by a window overlooking the parking lot, with Crane Lake in the distance. We definitely will be back.“

“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!“

“Invite your family and friends and they won’t be disappointed.“

“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.“

“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.“

“BEST fried chicken I’ve ever had!! 🍗🍗🍗🍗🍗“

“We have been here 3 times now and each time we try new menu items. Not one has been less than stellar! What a gem that we are lucky to have in Robbinsdale. Our favorite is the scallop scampi. Shoutout to Cole, a great server and so personable! We spent $120 for an app, 2 pastas, a bottle of wine, and a dessert. Pretty great deal when the food is this good!“

“Delicious entrees and desserts! The service was wonderful as well!“

“We had a family birthday party on the patio and Evan's service was five star. It started out as a pizza party until the family saw the dinner menu. Pizzas, pastas and burgers were delicious and all came out at the same time! Bravo Primo! Very well done!“

“I had the pleasure of dining at Hendrix & Siena last night . The beautifully lit dining room made you feel at home the second you sat down. I could see from my table the kitchen crew busily preparing the food with love and it was ever so apparent by the constant smiles on their faces that they loved what they were doing. Now for the food... we started with the lemony beans which was so refreshing and well seasoned. I ordered the lasagne duefoglie and it was amazing......you must try it! Others at the table ordered the asparagus caesar salad that had perfectly marinated sea beans and asparagus and the Sorpresine with a carmelized cream sauce to die for. I highly recommend this restaurant and I plan to be back!“

“🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥place & love the area I recommend everybody to get the experience“

“Went here for my husband’s birthday with some of our friends and I cannot say enough nice things! For starters, the food was excellent, we ordered a few pastas, all delicious. The focaccia and the arancini were great! Our server was amazing! She brought all of us complimentary drinks for the birthday and even got us a dessert with a candle at the end, which was really nice and appreciated :)“

“This was my second visit to Buca in Maple Grove. It was amazing. The staff is very friendly and attentive. Special Thank You to Cheyenne, he was amazing his drinks were fabulous, ask him for some of his specials, he did an amazing alcohol free apple drink, that had all 8 of us at the table very happy. He also took time to take us on a tour of the entire facility. This is a beautiful place, it has so much character. We will be back again.“

“Had a very crispy and super delicious slice today, like outstanding pizza. 🍕“

“Great dinner tonight. Salad and the short rib, deliciously flavored and tender. Great red wine. Followed by tiramisu. They never disappoint.“

“Went there for the bogo lunch deal. The fettuccine Alfredo with chicken was great. Huge pieces of chicken. My boyfriend’s spaghetti with meatballs looked great. First time at this location we will be back!“

“This is literally one of the best places I have ever eaten, that I have to write a review more than one place 😂 Absolutely everything is amazing, and I always get it when I have guests in town, to blow their mind 🤯 I am amazed at their quality, especially with delivery. You guys are beyond impressive!! ❤️“

“Amazing service and even more amazing food! Best Italian in town!“

“The server we had was above par. He was the nicest and best server we've ever had. A very handsome Hispanic gentleman that really made my mother's birthday so much better. We wish we would've asked for his name because idk that we'll be back unless he's working and is our server. I highly recommend the stuffed chicken marsala.“

“My wife and I had a late lunch on Tuesday at the Maple Grove Olive Garden. Our waiter’s name was Shine. I talked to Derrick, the general manager regarding how well cooked the chicken was on my meal. It was cooked properly and was still very tender and juicy. The manager was very nice to talk too and explained how their cooks are trained well and use a temperature probe to always assure that the chicken is cooked to the correct temp. My wife and I had a great lunch, in fact brought food home for dinner too. Great general manager and Shine is a great waiter. Overall experience was fantastic, well done Olive Garden!“

“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!“

“The staff was amazing!! We were stranded on the interstate and ended up here they let us keep our suitcases in a corner. The pizza was fast and delicious!!“

“Had the House Special today and it was WONDERFUL! My old boss use to order from the Mendota one & it was great...this at Edina was just as good as I remembered the one's my boss brought into work... yes, I'll be back!“

“We recently celebrated my wife’s 68th birthday at Pizza Luce, with the whole family which is 15 people ranging an age from 1 1/2 years old to ,and it was phenomenal

I just wanted to do a shout out to two people that made it very special. When was Tony the manager, our table was set and ready to go when we got there with that many people between four different families showing up people were struggling in, and we never felt any pressure at all, even though we were taking up a large part of their dining room.

The other person that really made it special was our server, her name was Olivia. I have put over 50 years on an off in the restaurant business as an employee and as a guest and Olivia was absolutely top five for a waitress/server.
Her pizza and appetizer suggestions were spot on, she was always there when we needed her,(and sometimes when we didn’t, lol) she did an amazingly wonderful job.

Pizzas were excellent everything from Gluten free, to Hawaiian, to your basic pepperoni and one small cheese for the kids, everyone got what they wanted

Appetizers were wonderful as well, I highly recommend the pretzels were amazing.

We did have reservations, and we had to go a little earlier than we wanted to just because we are such a big group and they were already getting full, but they totally accommodate us and it all worked out splendidly

If you really enjoy excellent service at the table and are a big tipper make sure to ask for Olivia, if you’re not a very big Tipper ask for anybody else, cause she is worth every penny“

“I had a fantastic time enjoying my pizza while staying at a nearby hotel—it was a delightful treat for a Friday night! The flavor was amazing, and I loved that I could order a vegan option since it's been a while since I visited Pizza Luce. The staff was incredibly friendly when I came in to pick up my order.“

“Stopped to grab a gift card and ended up ordering a pizza too. It has been a minute since I had Punch. Tonight was amazing! Piping hot pizza with loads of sausage and mushrooms. I ate a couple slices while heading home. The pizza really hit the spot, and the service was great as well. 😊“

“Best pizza in MN by far. Friendly and fast service!!!“

“Great pizza and service!!“

“Best pizza in Chanhassen!“

“Best deep dish pizza in the area. Lots of cheese and toppings.“

“Best pizza place in town, and owned by a genuinely nice dude!“

“LOVE Maggie’s!! Great small town restaurant with EXCELLENT food!“

“My wife and I were craving pizza and stopped at Red's Savoy in Osseo,MN tonight to place a takeout order. John, the owner was working the counter and was a very friendly and funny guy. He is a great addition to the Osseo business district. We were going to order our pizza and go next door for a beer while they prepped it. John asked us why not have a beer here? So we did and he kept us laughing and entertained between answering the phone taking orders. The restaurant was clean, the company was good and pizza looked awesome and smelled and tasted even better. If you are craving pizza near Osseo,MN, do yourself a favor and head over to Red's Savoy and get the best pizza in town. Maybe even have a beer with the boss while you wait. The Eastsider pizza with the sauerkraut is a MN legend!“

“UPDATE: Red's Savoy responded with an explanation and an offer for a free pizza. They also reminded me I had $10 on my account that I could put towards a new order of wings as well. Ordered again the other day and paid nearly nothing, with the exception of the tip. Delicious as always and thanks for the great customer service!

Ordered a large pizza last weekend in order to utilize my free wings offer. Pizza is a little spendy ($28.50 for Savoy's Special) but figured it was worth it for the awesome free wings that would go along with good pizza. Gave a $10 tip. Five days later I saw a $47.54 charge on my bank transactions. Called to see if they processed it correctly and was then told about a $5 delivery fee, a $1.90 credit card fee and then tax. Had I known this I would have not ordered delivery and/or given a smaller tip (delivery fee goes to the driver). Also, would have paid cash. If we order again we will pick it up but rather disappointed with this incident. :(“

“Had a great time. Food was excellent. Very family friendly.“

“I’m in town from out of state and wanted pizza. Jets pizza was close to our hotel so we ordered online. Pizza came before estimated time, pizza was absolutely delicious! Crust is perfection! Crispy on the outside and soft and chewy on the inside. Good amount of toppings and delivered hot and fresh. So glad we tried Jets, we would definitely recommend“

“Took a chance on a small mall coffee shop-what a surprise. Best coffee I’ve had around the Twin cities. Whatever coffee they’re using, it’s fantastic. Wish they had as many locations as the other chain stores (or at least one out in Eagan 😆)“

“Angeno’s is the best! Excellent food at a nice price, and the best, friendliest service you’ll ever encounter. Kelly is the epitome of a true professional, providing exemplary service with a smile. The calzones are the bomb!!“

“awesome deep dish pizza thank you“

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

“We arrived at this spot for lunch. my friend recommended this place. Well, it was very nice. The crew welcomed us with a smile and we had an excellent feeling. The meal was great. We loved this restaurant a lot and we will definitely return to this restaurant. Warmly recommended.“

“I was hanging out at a friend’s house one day when he ordered some pizzas and boneless chicken wings delivered from Jet’s Pizza. Both exceeded my expectations and were quite good. I hadn’t heard of the place beforehand but would be willing to go back or get it delivered again. Overall, Jet’s Pizza serves solid pies and wings and delivers them quickly.“

“Group of 12 was feed most of us first timers we had fun.“
