“Delicious food in a bar serving!“

“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!“

“This place is 10/10 and the people are 20/10! I was there last night to celebrate my husband’s birthday and they went above and beyond with helping me pull off the surprise. When some of the balloons I had floated off, they got a ladder to get them for me. I brought a cake with me, and they provided plates and cutlery for us which I did not expect!! Everyone was absolutely incredible and I’m so grateful for all they did. THANK YOU.The drinks are amazing and the atmosphere is beautiful. It’s a wonderful place for a date night, hang out with friends or a place to celebrate your birthday. I highly recommend!“

“-Vinai MN- My friend and I wanted to try Chef Yia's restaurant due to being homesick and wanting hmong food. We were met with such great service and sat where we could see the work area. Chef Yia was so kind and started us off with a complimentary appetizer, rice Curry balls. We ordered and the food came so fast. As soon as I took a bite, my eyes started to get teary because it tasted like food from home. I started fanning myself to not cry which Chef Yia saw and asked if the food was too spicy. We then started to explain that we were not from MN and were feeling a bit homesick and how the food reminded us of home. Chef Yia then said, here let's do this. He returned with a pot of beef soup that consisted of mushrooms, bamboo shoots, beef and green onion and white rice and shared that this dish was one of those dishes that we would eat at gathering and events. We we so shocked and so at loss with his kindness and compassion. We both took a bite and immediately lighted up. It tasted like my mom's cooking 💓. As we were nearing the end of our meal, Chef Yia told us not to stuff ourselves too full and surprised us with a complimentary dessert which further awed us. We were so lost at words for Chef Yia's kindness, generosity and comfort. We chose the Lava Cake and it was soooo good! I normally don't like sweets but we devoured this 😋. 1000/10 would recommend.“

“having my clubACB getMC patch finally the recognition we deserve“

“Me and a friend of mine were lucky enough to get tickets to one of their first tastings and cocktail pairings. And it was fantastic. Wonderful spin on classic Lao dishes. You could tell every course and pairing was meticulously crafted, and well balanced. The Steak Costini flight was by far my favorite. So many different flavors with the perfect matching drink. Wonderful job! Can’t wait for the next one! Cathy! You did a wonderful job! Thank you!“

“All I can say is wow. It's not often that a restaurant totally exceeds my expectations. But it did. Food was amazing. The Korean BBQ pizza was so good and the cheesy rice cakes were amazing. Service was outstanding. I highly recommend.“

“Had a very nice meal at Herbst with friends from out of town. We enjoyed the beautiful space and thoughtful menu. The cocktail options were especially great, with categories for style of drink and full, low, and zero proof options within each.
A few misses on the menu and a fairly slow service were the only small things that took away from the overall experience. Looking forward to coming back for another visit.“

“Really fantastic food and service“

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

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

“Loved everything about this place! The food was delicious with good serving sizes. We all enjoyed our drinks, friendly and attentive server, and the atmosphere. It's a great place to celebrate a birthday!! 🎉“

“Ate at Oliver’s for the first time this morning. Not good. First had the supposedly spicy Bloody Mary. Not spicy at all, not worth $8.99. And I don’t prefer real spicy. Next had the eggs Benedict. OMG I could have fit both eggs on one half of the muffin and still not covered it. The ham, if that’s what you want to call it was something I’ve never seen before, thinner than bacon and tough. The hollandaise sauce was the worst. It is better in the pkg from the grocery store. Will never be back. The staff was very nice.“

“Totally incredible experience. You come in, get a seat from the hostess in a cool and chill ambient bar, and then the bartender asks you about your preferences. You get a bespoke beverage - all of which were absolutely incredible - made to order. It was really exceptional. I definitely recommend!“

“Great staff. Plenty of menu selections with weekly specials. We've become regulars. Going back tonight.“

“We loved our private pickle ball party here! They made it really easy to bring additional games in! We brought in giant Jenga and Corn hole and there was ample space! :) Food was good and it was great! Would recommend bringing in your own speakers if you want louder/different music.

Many of our friends inquired about it for future parties there too! :) Also, communication was great via email for planning. Thank you Mpls Cider Company!“

“Excellent service! Abbi W was our server and she made the dinner so much better! Good food doesn’t matter without good service. We will definitely be back and ask for Abbi!“

“We went for drinks and dinner, and it was excellent! Our server did an amazing job remembering orders for 6 of us chaotically throwing food and drink orders at him. The drinks were creative and well-balanced. The food was delicious. The music list was fun without being intrusive. Just overall a really fantastic time - we'll definitely be back!“

“I'm from Central America, and i can promise you this is the closest to home I have been in a little while, everything is soo good. thank you Tasty Taco“

“First time was a great experience. Definitely will return“

“After a long day at a work conference, my wife and I were looking for a memorable dinner experience—and Fhima’s delivered in every possible way. From the moment we walked in, we were transported to a different era. The 1920s Art Deco interior is absolutely stunning, with glowing chandeliers, velvet textures, and a bar that could easily be a movie set. It’s classy, cozy, and quietly buzzing with charm. We started with the sampler appetizer—an incredible way to warm up our palates with bold, layered flavors. My wife ordered the Chicken Tagine, which came beautifully presented and full of rich, comforting North African spices. I went with the Wagyu NY Strip, which was grilled to perfection and paired with saffron rice that was as fragrant as it was flavorful. The rosemary chimichurri on the side added a nice kick. For drinks, my wife had a well-balanced Cosmo, while I couldn’t resist their signature Call From Istanbul—a dramatic and smoky twist on the classic Old Fashioned, served with flair (and actual fire). What made the night even better was the attentive, personable service from Eli and Will. Their recommendations were spot on, and they made us feel welcome without ever being overbearing. Whether you’re a local or a visiting foodie, Fhima’s is an absolute must for date night or any occasion that deserves something special. We’ll be talking about this meal for a long time—and already planning our next visit.“

“I can’t begin to say how much we enjoyed our dinner here. Highly recommend it!“

“The pizza is pretty good and I would go back again. My wife and I had a pepperoni and jalapeno pie. The crust was pretty good, I would like a slight bit more chew to it, but flavorful none the less. We really liked the sauce as it wasn't too much and very flavorful. Oddly enough the pepperoni didn't have a lot of flavor, but it had a good bite through and was a good size.

They have a good local beer selection and the atmosphere was nice with a section for pickup and dine in. You can also see them making the pies.

The service was fast, attentive, and she boxed the leftover pie up for us.

Parking is a bit of a challenge, so be prepared to drive around to find a spot on adjacent streets.“

“New menu coming in March!“

“Upon our arrival, we were greeted by the owner Martina Priska. With a beautiful and welcoming, smiling face. She selected delicious items on the menu. And we took our seats by the fish tank.
Our food was brought out in an expedited fashion, and I must say it was the most delicious meal that I’ve had in the last six months and I eat out almost every night of the week! Bravo Martina and Derek!
I plan to return again and again and bring lots of friends!! The menu is divine, and the is very romantic and approachable .“

“MY FAVORITE CHINESE PLACE! THE VEGETABLE LO MEIN IS FANTASTIC WITH BABY BOK CHOY, ASPARAGUS, CARROTS, BROCCOLI, ETC.! AND THE SESAME BALLS ARE SO YUMMY!!! I GET THIS EVERY SUNDAY! They do not have a side of white rice so I make my own at home…but giving it a solid 4 out of 5 stars for that reason - always have rice on hand!“

“Amazing food, good service, lovely patio“

“Unbelieveable experience and a must try. Freshest and tastiest food I've ever had.“

“I thoroughly enjoyed my meal, my server Tommy recommended a breakfast special he created as he also is one of the chef’s, and it was so so so good. An elevated food experience that lives up to the Minneapolis food scene’s reputation. Decor is awesome too. Thanks for the experience and recommendations Tommy, you’re the homie!!“

“Sweetest spot for families w young kids too - this team has been so sweet to our son who is obsessed w putt putt. We were rly pleased w staff amenities and vibes here!!!“

“they were super sweet and the food came super fast! The food was pretty good but a bit expensive! Family friendly and good drink options as well!“

“Dropped in and picked up a Pumpkin Pie Honore. It was truly one of the best desserts I’ve had in the US. Complex yet simple and inviting in flavor.

Exterior of the Honore was pumpkin and similar to fall flavors but the inside had a citrusy and tangy cream. Exposing Minnesotans to new flavors and French techniques, one pastry at a time.“

“The food and drinks were great. Highly recommend this place. Tequila selection is amazing.“

“Great entertainment set up The food was okay but way overpriced and I really didnt enjoy eating in the dark ! Next time I would just go and have a drink and an appetizer or dessert . I would stop somewhere else for food“

“I have loved Dusty's for many years; and a Dago Works with potato salad is always a winner!“

“Really wish they had complimentary breakfast but it was a nice place to stay. Had to pay for street parking but seemed to be the normal thing for this city. Came here for buisness and it was a nice hotel. Room was perfect temperature. Bed was comfy. Room was clean.“

“I recently ordered catering for 112 people and was thoroughly impressed with the service. The food was excellent, the prices were unbeatable, and the manager handled everything professionally. I highly recommend their services for anyone looking for top-quality catering and food!“

“Fun place to hang out with ny husband for date night. Cocktails were great, loved the piano music. Would return“

“Checked out their "Taste of the sason event recently and this place is great for happy hour if you work or live downtown
Highlights were the rock shrimp tostada, the chicken shawarma satay and the beef sliders
Some of their other new fall items were not my favorite
- but I would def come back for HH as they have decent deals and even on a Saturday!
Also would like to try some other menu items
Service was good-they seemed to have a lot of staff at the time this event
Decor was cute and trendy
Parking - can be difficult- need to use the parking ramps nearby“
