“I love the Steak and eggs!!!!“

“We had yet another fantastic dining experience at The Exchange, and this visit truly exceeded all expectations! From the moment we walked in, the ambiance was vibrant and inviting, setting the perfect tone for a memorable evening. Our server, Angela, was an absolute gem, her enthusiasm for the menu and her attentive service made all the difference.

She went above and beyond, sharing her favorites and suggesting delightful pairings that enhanced our meal. Angela’s warm personality and genuine care made us feel like we were the most important guests in the restaurant.

We decided to try the Cuban sandwich, and it was nothing short of spectacular! The combination of flavors was harmonious, with perfectly grilled bread and succulent fillings that danced on our taste buds.

As we dined, the atmosphere buzzed with laughter and the clinking of glasses, adding to the excitement of the evening. Each bite of food felt like a celebration, and we savored every moment.

Overall, it was an amazing dinner that transcended our expectations, and we can’t wait to return for another culinary adventure at The Exchange!“

“Seth was a fabulous waiter and the food was delicious- elevated food for a cool sports bar. And even better service“

“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.“

“Some odd industrial music choices and higher volume when packed didn't impede my enjoyment of our absolutely delicious drinks, gnocchi, halibut, or steak. Service and food were lovely throughout, just be prepared to have to shout a bit to converse~“

“Highly recommend Holman's Table for events - it's a perfect gem of a space, great for corporate events, special dinners & happy hours, intimate weddings and more. Great service and food was delish.“

“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.“

“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.“

“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!“

“Restaurant is amazing! Steady Eddie every time. Creative, well crafted, beautifully curated pre fixe tastings. Highly recommend!“

“We had Crave do another one of our yearly April Gala + Award Shows. This year they did our open bar at Union Depot's Red Cap Room in St. Paul. They were EXCELLENT! The bartenders were personable and professional. They provided a signature cocktail for our event that was great. Having them at our event was exactly what we were looking for and they executed it perfectly. Five Stars.“

“Located in a beautiful space on the first floor of the IDS Center. I stopped in for a happy hour and I'm so glad I did.

Happy hour aside, I would come back just for their hummus (and a beer). I generally don't care for hummus but this was noteworthy.

Their smash burger was my ideal burger. It was simple but with classy ingredients.

I definitely recommend sitting at the bar, they have a frost rail that keeps your drinks ice cold. Maybe it was that rail, but even their water tasted especially great.“

“The tot has become a must have for me!“

“We enjoyed a pleasant pre-concert dinner. Our experience was very positive, beginning with a friendly greeting from the person at the check-in desk, and continuing with attentive service from our very charming waitress. We chose two basic items from the wide-ranging menu, and both were winners. A huge chopped salad topped with blackened shrimp, big enough to share. And a half-pound burger that was cooked to order and accompanied by a large serving of crispy fries. A tasty serving of ice cream was a perfect ending to our dinner.“

“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!“

“Quaint little joint in NE in a residential area. \nThe bar is nice & big- looks like a good happy hour place. \nWe sat at one of the tables up front. We had the cheese dip with crostini for our appetizer. Good flavor. We needed more bread to enjoy the whole ramekin of cheese. For dinner we had the bolognese- nice thick noodles, very filling! We also enjoyed the prime steak & the smoked pork chop. At the best I’ve ever had but still a nice meal.“

“My friend and I had an incredible time at Owamni. My compliments to the chef. Truly one of a kind experience. The food was outstanding from start to finish ( presentation, flavor profile, texture, all natural and full of character). There’s not a place that’s more unique than Owamni in Minnesota, in my opinion . I highly recommend this establishment, and I wish you prosperity and success.“

“Best food in Mpls! Great staff/service. Chef is AMAZING!“

“We were here for dinner over the weekend and everything about this place was phenomenal we tried multiple things off of the to share or not portion of the menu and loved every bit of it. The whole grilled fish our waitress mentioned rotates depending on what is available fresh and it was cooked to Perfection and probably our favorite thing all weekend. The cocktail menu is unique and everything that we had the opportunity to try was delicious I highly recommend doing the cocktail flight to anybody who doesn't have a favorite spirit. Staff was incredibly friendly and knew what they were talking about if you had questions. To those looking at going here reservations are a must!!!! Great atmosphere as well“

“We had a fantastic date night at Joan’s! Highly recommend! The food was incredible. Perfect pacing, portions, wine pairings, and the flavors have you closing your eyes to experience each bite. One of the best meals we have ever had. Our server was thoughtful and friendly. Great dining atmosphere. We will be back!“

“-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.“

“Even tho, there are interesting things on the menu, I got the cheeseburger. OMG, best ever!
And the truffle fries - tasted of truffle without being way too greasy. We had a 2nd order for the table.
It's a special, soulful place, our group were all very happy“

“Borough is fantastic. Great food and service and the atmosphere is wonderful.“

“Highly recommend, incredible fine dining experience. Especially when paired with wine selections. We go at least twice a year and have never been disappointed.“

“Excellent food! Great wine!♥️“

“Amazing! We stopped here for our first time for pre-event drinks with our friends. We anticipated having one cocktail and being on our way, but were instead treated to something more akin to an experience! The GM greeted us and took our order and made sure we got to try more than just our drinks. A whole story about finding someone to re-tie my husband’s bow tie turned into a hilarious challenge for most of the staff. Even to the point that the assistant GM was going to drive to Von Maur while we finished our drinks (we declined..but wow). What kind of place does this!? Our cocktails were amazing, the charcuterie plate was delicious (the jam, honey, and cheese…just wow). But most of all, the staff made everything so memorable. We’ve never experienced anything like this! We will be back soon for a full dinner. Thank you for making our night so enjoyable!“

“Best food ever and the staff is awesome!! Visit this restaurant, you will not be disappointed!!“

“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 had a blast, we bought a package combo including a cocktail and 27 holes on the 3 courses they have. The facilities was decorated for Xmas which was awesome.
There are 3 separate bars, so we didn't have to wait around for a drink, the putt courses were awesome and the touch screen score keeping was convenient.
We will definitely be back!!“

“Great music in an old school club.“

“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.“

“Amazing food, good service, lovely patio“

“Went to The Local Rumor with friends, and stayed for a few hours! The atmosphere is warm, inviting and chic! We got a total of 8-9 dishes; savory baked mac & cheese, smash burger, corn bread etc. The warm greeting from the owner, Scott Cochran, along with the attentive staff was top notch! I definitely recommend checking this gem out!!“

“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.“

“love it. awesome service“

“Nice atmosphere and decor wheelchair accessible but no button on the door however people are very friendly and willing to help outdoor seating which is an accessible either except for two spots which is usually full delicious food and the servers were great I also have a nice selection of craft beers“

“best place in the twin cities. I remember when there was only beer and wine behind the bar and they sold single cigarettes. Dinner was a baguette and a roasted bulb of garlic and a bottle of wine. theater in the back with story tellers and fringe artists that kept this transplanted nyer here in the twin cities for 30 years.“

“Love the Harriet! Thru covid, the LH "Big Dig" and many other challenges, this family owned and run restaurant continues to provide warmth, cheer and good food to our Linden Hills neighborhood.“

“Loved this place. Great food and service“

“You guys Rock... in every way!!! 💖 👍“

“Visiting Pittsburgh and this was a great stop with a friendly staff (Kudos Tyrone) and great drinks! Fun time with the putt putt (beat my husband). If in Pittsburgh area this is a must stop!“

“I got the Bison Back Ribs served over polenta with a gastrique (that was a new one to me). Surprising to me, the polenta and gastrique stole the spotlight. I also got to try my friend's Ribeye Bolognese. It was hard to say which was better“

“The staff are friendly and efficient. Their prices are reasonable.“

“Cheerful and professional service from Sydney. Great artichoke dip and nice smooth lattes. The hibiscus orange tart has great flavor, but a little odd in texture for me. A wonderful option within walking distance of the XCel and Science Museum.“

“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!“

“An absolute hidden gem of a wedding venue!! Just had my wedding here a month ago and couldn't have been happier. Here are some of the reasons for choosing the Campus Club for your big day:

1. All encompassing price - the low (by wedding industry standards) venue rental is all inclusive, no cake cutting fee, linen fee, etc here!
2. The FOOD! We go so many compliments from our guests about the food, you won't taste a speck of the usual bad wedding food...I'm still thinking about the mashed potatoes and lasagna.
3. The staff! You work with a venue coordinator, we had Liz, and she was phenomenal at being communicative, helping us through any questions, and making sure our day went smoothly. They also have multiple managers on the day of the event and all the staff was incredible.
4. You get the whole 4th floor of the Coffman Memorial Union, we got married on the balcony, cocktail hour in the bar and then dinner & dance in the ballroom, so great to have so much space that is solely yours!
5. Being on Campus gives you a photo worthy backdrop to memorialize for your big day.

So happy we chose the Campus Club for our wedding venue!“

“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.“

“This is one of the best gluten free and healthy restaurants in the five state area. The food tastes homemade and the dining area has a lot of natural light with big windows and a view of Bde Maka Ska (Lake Calhoun).
My personal favorites are their egg sandwiches on delicious focaccia bread. All the bowls are great too. Their business continues to grow and I’m looking forward to their new Edina store.
The manager, Kyle, is very personal, professional, and greets me by my name. I’m a regular. I come weekly. As a celiac, it’s the safest restaurant around.“

“Wonderful dinner last night for a group of 8 people. The food was beyond anything I have experienced in a restaurant. Intricate flavors in each dish. I would highly recommend eating there!“
