“I ordered online a Smokestack burger and an Avocado Bacon Chicken. I'll be honest I had no idea this location wasn't drive thru only! Upon arrival I went inside, there was a fellow behind the counter who I gave my name to. About a couple of feet from the end of the counter a few feet back was another counter with to-go bags. Mine was promptly located and handed to me. The staff was friendly and efficient.I had customized the sandwich for no pickles. It didn't ruin the sandwich or my day! The sandwich was delicious... so much avocado!! I didn't taste that the pickles were even on it! The bun was soft and tasty. I'm not a big fan of fried chicken sandwiches but this one...set the bar! It was overly breaded or too crispy....just right. I liked that the order was in a box-tray so they weren't sliding around the bag. Shake Shack Rosedale you definitely made a fan out of me. Thank you for the delicious lunch and what I can only assume will be a fantastic dinner!“
“Amazing food, super friendly staff - a must try! I ordered the O.G. wings, Naem Khao (Crispy Coconut Rice), Noakeo's Eggrolls, and Garlic noodles. My favorites were the wings and noodles. Both had a perfect balance of sweet and savory and even a little bit of spice. The rice was good, but crispy rice isn't my favorite thing. Delicious flavor and generous servings. We ate next door at wandering leaf which had lots of seating and I highly recommend digging in there. On Wednesdays, they have a deal where you can get 3 pieces of chicken wings instead of 5 and $2 off a beer for a reduced price. It was a little pricey, but I'd give it a try at least once.“
“The food was absolutely amazing I really let gluttony take over and I ordered more than I could finish so epic leftovers! The establishment was pleasantly Decorous the beauty and the food definitely make up for the lack of space in the restaurant but that is my only complaint“
“Super impressed by our experience with wait staff, this place is absolutely adorable, and the food was very impressive. We loved the drink menu with so many options for N/A drinkers, too. Being able to pop next door and buy items we enjoyed at dinner to take home was a delight.“
“Extremely friendly atmosphere and staff. Our server, Jackson, has the best personality. Being our first visit, he explained the ingredients and recommended to try different sauces which were great. We asked to speak with his manager and Danny was just as kind. It’s nice to see a manager supporting his team with pride.“
“Had an enjoyable lunch here. The place is very popular with the locals, has a large number of tables which were mostly full, and good food. Our waitress was attentive and friendly. I had the country fried steak with grave, eggs, and hashbrowns. My wife had eaten the hashbrowns earlier for breakfast and really liked them - so I was happy to learn that they came paired with my entre. Mine were not as well-done as hers, but in fairness, she asked for extra crispy - I did not. So I didnt enjoy mine as much. I did, however, really enjoy my country fried steak. The place was celebrating a birthday so they had free chocolate cake for everyone, the cake was awesome. My wife also had a caramel roll which she said was to die for.“
“Awesome little bar. One amazing selection of both beers and wines. Some of the best European choices I've seen anywhere. Their local brewed beer was very good. The knocwaurst that we had was also awesome. Pretzel very tasty. And the discussions with the owner/bartender was what made it all worthwhile.Parking: There was some available street parking but if it was busy there would be very little. There is a lot for the nearby university that I believe can be used to park.“
“Over 2 dozen well maintained pinball options with a hot dog menu (vegan options) and full bar with craft beer. Awesome service and friendly bartenders that kept smiling until bar close. The Godzilla machine is the LE with the collapsible building and is a must play; other popular machines included Game of Thrones, Stranger Things and Deadpool. Games are only $.50! Sure wish this pub were closer.“

“If you've been looking for a reason to come back downtown, you have it! David Fhima , Eli Fhima and team have again knocked it out of the park. Phenomenal coffee and pastries. I can't wait to be down for wine soon too! SO great to have this in the Capella Tower!“
“This place is amazing, the staff is so helpful! They don’t charge as much as others and They are always upgrading and redoing the felt on all the tables, getting new house cues, and the food is better and cheaper than mostly restaurants. Very friendly and relaxed. Whether you’re a professional or just beginning, if it’s your first date night, anniversary, birthday party this place will take care of you. Thank you so sue and jimmy!!!“
“This salad was so delicious it inspired me to learn how to make it myself. I don't have a good approximation yet, but I am optimistic. Server was very friendly and good came out fast. I appreciated that she proactively offered to add a protein to the meal (I chose crispy chicken - excellent!) Docking some star power of the rating because it took too long to get the bill for an airport restaurant.Can't speak much for ambiance. It was so busy I sat at a "bar" type counter, so my view was people coming through security. Though, if I had been waiting for a travelling companion, that would be a good thing.“
“The food here is awesome and unique. And great drink selection! The Lamb Gyro brat was absolutely amazing. They have so many different options and you can really create your own adventure with the toppings and dipping options. We went before the Wild game at the Xcel, so it was VERY busy. We were lucky to find a spot to sit. That, in my opinion, is the only "down side" to eating here. You have to squeeze in and share a table with strangers. With only two of us, that was no issue, but if you have a large group, it would be tricky.“
“Self-service taps is a cool idea, but that means no bartender and no familiar faces, the sort of thing you want in a neighborhood spot. That said, it was clean, comfortable, reasonably quiet, and the food was good. They had a wall full of games, which would be pretty cool if you planned on hanging out for a while.The taps had a good variety, wine, seltzers and beers, but it would have been nice to have a little more varieties or maybe a couple more recognized brands.All in all, a nice spot and definitely worth a visit.Parking: Fair amount of free on-street parking.Kid-friendliness: Seems like a perfectly fine place for kids. The games and deep booth seats certainly help.“
“I stopped in here while in the middle of a rail-bus transfer. Right away I was greeted by staff. There was a group circled around the bar but no where else. TVs everywhere. I was told there was a special that day: tomato-basil soup and grilled cheese sandwich at a reasonable price so I decided to try that. A tall glass of water with lots of ice they kept refilled. I was offered more food at one point but I can't eat that much these days. I took a tour around and found they had two Skee-ball machines in back. They do have a change machine. The juke box was ultra-modern. I found a bucket of bingo stampers on one table. Overall, I found this to be a super nice place and would stop here again.“

“Visiting Minneapolis, and found this place close to our Airbnb. Their salty dog was amazing. Dark chocolate, caramel and salt. Not powerfully sweet- think slightly veering to a savory hot cocoa. I usually stick to a vanilla latte as any specialty drink is too sweet, but this was just right. The service was great, and the atmosphere is super peaceful and chill.“
“This place has a ton of potential as an authentic music venue in the twin cities. A lot of great artists will establish here.These venues are explicitly important to artists and musicians. I hope they can hold off big greedy corporate venues like the fillmore.“
“Great food and many choices. Place was full at lunchtime, but it seemed nicely quiet. Everyone was talking quietly. Good acoustics. Highly recommend.Parking: The place was full, including the bar. I found a place and my friend did too but they were the last spots.“
“The Bulldog has my favorite wings and burger - the "Fear the Reaper" wings and "Stilton" burger are my favorites in the Twin Cities. The Reaper wings are the perfect balance of heat & flavor and the Stilton burger is full of flavor and heavy on the garlic. Oh, and when you get the burger make sure to get the cajun fries - baller combo.“
“This place was slammed and short staffed. While we did have reservations, we were not immediately seated. HOWEVER from my own experience hosting at restaurants the fact that they sat us in less than fifteen minutes given the state of the place I couldn't be happier.Great selection of beers and thc drinks“
“Best gluten free beer in the USA!I also work for Burning Brothers on their cooling needs and owners are top notch business owners, pay there bill on time and never cheat or complain on pricing. You guys are a gem in the rough.The newest product last few years Burning Brothers has produced is Kite Soda THC/CBD Carbonited Alcohol free drinks! Personally enjoy them as well as others I've gifted them too. There also great for making spiked Ice-cream Root Beer Floats...My crew and myself are honored to have been given the opportunity years ago to be your cooling solution, and hope your team feels the same way.Hoping you guys survive the virus issues all small business are facing.Keep up the good work guys and thank you on behalfof my team for the biz!“
“I love my neighborhood bar. The bartenders and staff make us feel like family. We love Kayla and Jake on evenings and even on nights when it's super busy, they remain professional, and always remember your drink preference. Great music, live bands and good pours.“
“I have been here a handful of times. Some of the food has been really great, but the beef nachos are less than desirable. It was a quiet night but service was outstanding. Often when you go in local bars on quiet nights if your not a regular service is horrible. This is for sure a place I will continue to go.“
“Quick, easy, and affordable delivery. I like that you can customize any of the pizzas, even to the point of doing half and half of their specialty pies on a personal sized pizza. The pizzas are definitely on the heavier side but the flavor combos are good and delivery is timely. Reheats great in the oven!“
“Food was good, but menu didn't have a lot of variety, Good fit for the neighborhood - comfortable and friendly spot to hand out with friends and get a drink. Decor and furnishings are a little dated, but service is attentive. Ordered a NA wine, a milkshake, nachos, a burger, and the daily special. Wine frizzante was served chilled in a wine glass. The black cherry milkshake was sweet and creamy but was cherry syrup mixed in soft serve vs cherry ice cream. The chicken nachos were very good - nachos were crisp, chicken was tender and flavorful, pico and sour cream were cold. The daily special that day was pot roast special was a large portion of pot roast served with baby carrots, a biscuit, and mashed potatoes with a well of gravy. The beef was fork-tender and had a tasty rich flavor. The Ellsworth Lucy burger was well-cooked, well-seasoned, and flavored well. We had sweet potato tots on the side which came with a chipotle sauce. The tots had great texture - soft inside with crisp exterior, and the chipotle sauce was creamy with a nice kick.“
“For Airport-food, "reasonably priced" (hint: it's not fast-food/99-cent heart attack in a paper sack so yes it can be pricey). But food, brew, and a place to kill time before your flight, ?. Decent selection of beer and spirits as well as non alcoholic.“
“Townsend Barber Institute Pizza Party, celebrating our Veterans, my students and I, really enjoyed the food and everything arrived hot and right on time, we were able to be together and have a great time, the driver was pleasantly surprised when we all chipped in to make their day as well. $$ Can’t wait to enjoy this pizza and wings again, enjoy the pics & videos below.Parking: Delivery this time, but we have also had meals inside and there is plenty of parking.“
