“I grew up going to the old location of Pannekoeken and LOVED it. I had countless Sunday brunches with my grandparents and parents there, begging for troll dolls and ordering the namesake dish so that I could hear the servers announce my breakfast.

Much of this charm remains, but I kind of HATE this new location. The wide open warehouse-esque space is not cozy and does not fit the vibe of the food or nostalgia needed for this restaurant to shine.“

The establishment boasted a clean atmosphere, fast service, and friendly staff. I frequently dined there for breakfast, lunch, or dinner and was never disappointed. The harvest salad was bursting with flavors, and the eggs benedict was the best I’ve had! I highly recommend it and am confident you will become a repeat customer. Enjoy! ❤️“

“I drive an hour from Mankato to get sushi here because it’s genuinely that good.

Zero idea why some reviews say it’s bland, it’s literally some of the best sushi I’ve had. I’ve tried a lot of places. Like dude there’s literally banana sushi on there. There’s adventurous choices and safe options. We’ve went there 5 ish times, every time getting something new and almost everything has been extremely good.

The wait staff are genuinely phenomenal. Extremely nice and pleasant.

The atmosphere is very nice, I just wish there was more/better seating. I love that this place isn’t deep into Rochester. Definitely a secret spot.“

I told her you guys had a dedicated gluten free kitchen she was so excited. We ate there twice. The food was so good. The staff was so friendly. She got chicken tenders both times and each time even got desert. She said she felt like a normal kid. She said the baked potato and asparagus werereally good too! We will come anytime we are in Minnesota. Thank you guys.“

We liked it so much we bought a quart to bring back home with us to Chicago. We used it on Salmon I caught in Alaska. It was amazing how the sauce complimented the salmon. The staff was super friendly and knowledgable about about the menu and were able to make excellent recommendations on choosing what to try. It was our first time there. We will definitely be going back when we are back in Rochester.“

We have visited numerous Cold Stone Creamery from around the country...and had begun to rethink CSC due to most having grumpy non-caring employees, rarely fill the bowl and do not ask for a substituted mix in.
Was so refreshing to have such a POSITIVE experience at this location. Thank You for bringing real customer service back!! Will see you again soon!“
