“From the moment I walked in - it felt so inviting and warm! The staff was so kind and made sure to check in about the food! The food - oh my goodness was simply amazing! I haven't ever had Phillipiano food before but I can say I will happily be back!“

“One hell of a lobster roll. A bit pricey but left me full and happy. Jonathan was great behind the bar and was super friendly even though I think I was one of the first /only people to sit down inside. I was there around 11:30 / noon so I’m sure the evening brings around a much more lively atmosphere.“

“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.“

“These folks have known how to do fine dining for decades. One of my favorites growing up and now I take my own kids.“

“We had a terrific meal at the Capital Grille, made special by our waiter Ryan who was extremely personable and well versed in the menu. The atmosphere was classic upscale and well maintained. The food was impressive. We ordered tenderloin with lobster, fillet mignon Oscar style, and the famous au gratin potatoes. Before the main course we were delighted with an array of breads and a delicious amuse-bouche. We skipped salad to keep room for dessert, which was in our opinion a smart play because the cheesecake and crème brûlée was a marvelous way to cap our evening. Highly recommend the Capital Grille. Ask for Ryan if you happen to visit.“

“Excellent food, great service🇺🇸“

“Очень вкусно , красивое стильное место, очень понравилось.“

“We stopped here on December 24th looking for fresh lutefisk and were pleased to find we could buy a 5lb filet. The lutefisk was amazing I was told and in the future we will be sure to call ahead and place the order. The manager was running back and forth with several options before we decided to just buy the 5lb filet. I can say I was amazed, they cooked it in the oven and when I returned that evening I could hardly smell anything other than the usual air fresheners we have in the house.

So thanks again for helping keep a Christmas tradition alive and hope the girls hockey team does great.“

“Best halibut & shrimp ever!“

“i came to visit Minneapolis from Wisconsin.... and a friend recommended this to me.... so I came and it didn't disappoint... my waitress and the owner made me feel at home and the pork chop... cheesy bread and macaroni and cheese was phenomenal! and the service was AMAZING!!!“

“Food was very delicious, service was top notch. Would definitely go back to try more of the options. Our Waiter was great and very informative.“

“El mejor heladoooo muy cremosito!! Pedí una sandía Loka y wow la mejor muy bien preparada. 💯 recomendado“

“We stumbled upon "Barwaqo" as it's now called when we were headed to the Electric Fetus for a book signing event; apparently this place changed hands about a month ago (Oct 2023) so previous reviews under the old Cala name are not relevant. We felt very welcomed by the owner and staff, and had an amazing dinner of Somali chicken and rice, sambusa, and the spinach dish which game with roasted goat and a fava bean soup with glutinous rice cakes. Everything was fresh and delicious and obviously made with a lot of care, and all of the food we got only came to about $45. We were thrilled to have randomly taken a chance on an unknown place and we will go back in the future. When we talked to the owner outside afterwards, I asked one of the staff what "barwaqo" means in Somali and he said "gift" but when I looked it up, it means "prosperity." Take a chance on this place at the corner of Clinton/Franklin instead of the Wendy's across the street!“

“The cashier was really friendly. I asked about the juices and which would be the sweetest and he let me try it first. Ended up loving it. The food was amazing ! Hot honey chicken quesadillas with the best French fries 🍟 ever. Also came with ketchup, sour cream, and a spicy avocado salsa. Hot and fresh and will definitely go back.“

“Luv luv LUV this place. Wish they d add new varieties though. However all is well and all is good with this place. Luv how we are welcomed with a smile“

“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!!“

“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 🥰“

“first time eating at this restaurant, very nice surprise! my server Bree was very helpful and gave me good recommendations. she was very cheerful and makes me feel very welcomed. if I have time i will definitely visit again.“

“The food was simply delicious that we had to unbutton our pants. Definitely enjoyed all the dishes we had from start to finish. The portion sizes are generous and we had to take away our food. Definitely recommend checking this place out! The interior also had very great ambience and it’s a good spot for celebration meals or if you just wanna try some good Indian food in the cities. 100/10“

“On top of having great service the food was amazing. I had half a dozen Oysters, they were delicious and the King Crab leg with there ranch and cheese mashed potatoes. It was a lot of food but the best I’ve had. I’d say they were as good as or better than the Oceanaire downtown Minneapolis. Bill was $180 before the tip.“

“The other week, I was in the northern metro suburbs and started to get hungry. I drove past Sarna's Grill in Columbia Heights and, judging by the building's welcoming appearance, decided to park and give it a try (though I know that doesn't necessarily mean the food or service will be good).\n\nThat said, my decision was bolstered by the spacious, inviting interior, wide aisles, booths filled with couples and families, and the waitstaff delivering trays of appetizing food.\n\nA friendly waitperson greeted me at my table and offered me a menu with a variety of options, from burgers and salads to complete meals, including pasta and hot turkey or beef.\n\nI chose the BLT on artisan whole wheat with a side of coleslaw. It looked so tempting that I took a bite of half the sandwich before realizing I hadn't taken a picture of the food. What you see in the attached image is the mouth-watering inside of the delicious BLT.\n\nAs it turned out, I had an hour to kill. After finishing my meal, I asked if I could hang out for a while. The friendly waitperson said I could stay as long as I wanted and brought me a cup of coffee to pass the time.\n\nThat kindness made my day and earned her a nice tip. Plus, I promised to return the next time I'm in the neighborhood.“

“Our waiter Eric was amazing dealing with such a big crowd for our dad’s birthday.“

“Stopped in for a quick lunch take out order been meaning to try it! I asked for my general tso spicy and they actually made it spicy so happy for that nice old school tasting Chinese food circa 92, look foward to trying more items. I do wish they delivered though“

“Great authentic Cantonese restaurant, were friendly staff and got super good food. Menu is pretty long but you can find very good food from there.“

“I ordered the beef ribs and pork ribs with their 5 cheese baked Mac and cheese and it was absolutely delicious!!! The pork ribs were a bit salty but if you eat it with the BBQ sauce they provide it's amazing I got them with the side Mac and the Mac was soooo good! You can tell there are 5 different cheeses and it wasn't dry! The pork ribs came with about 4 ribs and a few ends. The beef ribs are pretty big and came with 2 and an extra end. Next time I order I will definitely be getting just the beef ribs in my opinion they were better they had a bit of spice to them and weren't too salty! Baked Mac and cheese 9/10 just wish it came with a little more. Pork ribs 6/10 they were too salty but decent. Beef ribs 9/10 perfectly seasoned just wanted a little more moisture.“

“More options than most local poké restaurants. Artfully crafted custom bowls are their specialty. Plan to take time to review their substantial menu of traditional poké favorite ingredients. Several salmon and tuna choices along with other protein options allow for a variety of tasty options.
Be sure to try their pickled radish option, it's mouth watering.“

“Very reasonable and everything we ordered was amazing. Definitely check them out!“

“I've written 3 reviews in the last hour.... None of them show up. Same reviews get shown over and over. 35 years I've been going there, never again. Down hill“

“Best Margaritas - Very Friendly - Fabulous Food. We LOVE This Place!“

“Excellent, 5 stars, no words.“

“Our service from Naomi was impeccable. She was very nice and attentive. The chicken wings were crispy outside and tender inside, just how I like them. The wild mushroom and spinach ravioli was delicious. The ribeye steak was very flavorful. Even the French fries were super tasty, crispy outside and tender inside. We had one of the best dining experiences we've had in a long time.“

“The chicken is FIYA LOL FR I'm picky and I don't like most people's food I'm from Memphis so I'm very particular about how food taste especially being in Minnesota this is the only chicken that taste anything close to home. I'm addicted lol“

“Great food with great prices. A solid environment to enjoy a good meal. We go for Rotary meetings every month and they are very gracious to us.“

“Great food, excellent service, loved the family style serving with metal serving spoons! Not sure but I kind of have a feeling, that we were served by the owner? she is a great dynamo of a personality! Szechuan beef and kung pao chicken.“

“Very good food. good costume service“

“So good. The stuffed jalapeños were some of the best ive ever had. The hush puppies in the hot sauce are phenominal. I had catfish fillet and chiken wing dinner. Both were super good. Fries are super cripsy. Will be going again. Probably to get the family sized wing and fish meal. And of course a double order of jalapeños. Thanks yall.“

“I don’t think I’ve been quite disappointed this much to be honest. Everything was too salty, the gizzards were so tough I had to throw it away…. Perch was salty, coleslaw was alright. It is too bad I had this experience because I was really hoping for a good fish place to come once a week“

“Food was great, very quick, and cheap. My friends and I have been on the hunt for the best Chinese food in the Twin Cities for three years now and this is my top runner. I don't understand the low ratings - this is exactly what you should expect from a hole in the wall Chinese food restaurant. It's not fine dining, but it's family owned and the staff is extremely kind.“
