“A long time favorite local coffee shop. Have been going for many years. LQBTQA safe space and gay female owned. Welcoming to everyone and a place that feels like home. Friendly staff. Delicious baked goods. The food and some of the coffee drinks are not as consistent and as good as they used to be, but still better than a lot of coffee shops. I miss the old staff; I feel like after they remodeled at one point all of the long loved staff I was used to seeing left but people move on I guess. Still a lovely and friendly staff”
“Best and most unique ice cream shop in town, although I don't discriminate when it comes to ice cream and will eat it from almost anywhere-- Mom and Pop's is my favorite if I can make it there! I can (and have) go multiple times a week and not get sick of it. Also, the servers are always nice and just cool people.”
“Had a wonderful experience here with my family.The food was good and the service was top-notch especially the girl with glasses. My wife and kids really loved the place and we will definitely visit regularly.”
“Mad Ave Nutrition is my go-to spot for an after-workout shake. The staff is very knowledgeable and friendly. There are plenty of shakes to choose from for a great price!”
“I've been going to Mazatlan since I was a boy and it's always been exceptional. The service is great, the atmosphere is inviting and they've recently done some interior renovations that make the place more updated and inviting. The food is fantastic whether you are just stoppjng by for tacoa during lunch or if you want enchiladas for dinner. Mazatlan will always be my go to when I am in mankato!”
“Another absolutely amazingly delicious meal! They out do themselves every time we come. Just a true treasure that I hope is there for a very long time. Enjoyed a couple Guinness along with muscles, pan seared tuna and the corned beef and cabbage. Everything was just wonderful!”
“From the moment you walk in, you can feel the great atmosphere and are greeted with a smile! Fast and friendly service on top of the delicious Authentic Mexican food! The full bar gives you plenty of options to choose from. They are also kid friendly!!! I highly recommend this place!!”
“Delicious food at reasonable prices. The gyros and chicken shawarmas are what we usually get. If you are looking for a great way to end your meal that is not overly sweet, definitely try out the Baklava. The owner Ahmed and his staff are friendly and helpful. I have asked a bunch of questions and they have always been really accommodating, knowledgeable and patient. Thankful there is a restaurant that serves food from another part of the world with high quality and service in Mankato. Check it out!”
“We ordered a larger order for food and the service is always amazing! The owner works so hard to make sure that everything is perfect! We appreciate his hard work! The folks at work were so impressed!!”
“Pizza of this high quality shouldn't be fast food. Pizza and service is fantastic!! Price is definitely fair. Place your order, pay, get your drink & sit down. Your pie will be on the table faster than McD's!!”
“Great Mexican food that does not rely on high salt for flavoring. I highly recommend this place for those who are sensitive to salt and want to taste the good Mexican food flavors!! Really good margarita too.”
“Really good local place to go to! We live 5 minutes away and it's cool we can drink and walk home. The burgers are really good, and they have a good selection of alcohol. The pool table is awesome to play, and you can pay a jukebox to have your music play! Definitely would come back again with family from out of town”
“This place is a hidden gem in Mankato. It's a lunch spot, however, they do serve breakfast and have some good looking cinnamon rolls. Check the Facebook site for a photo and description of the daily special and if nothing else, try the club sandwich. I believe all the soups are home made and never disappoint.”
“My daughter and I went there for the first time, and we were blown away with everything from the beautiful decorations on the inside to the very friendly customer service and the easy to follow touchscreen kiosk. Everybody should check it out ! They got tea and donuts that taste like cereal It’s pretty wild. Will definitely be coming back.”
“Just had the best steak in town. Perfectly prepared. Very friendly and professional staff, warm atmosphere. Our entire table enjoyed their experience. Highly recommend.”
“Love this bar! My friends and I frequent here and always have a good time. I never have to worry about anything as the staff are always attentive to what’s going on in the bar. Great music, great vibes, great bartenders.”
“My fiance is Puerto Rican so I've eaten a lot of Hispanic food over the last few years. El Gordo was some of the best that I've had ever. My fiance was equally impressed. The food is needless to say, so worth it. It's reasonably priced and good portions as well. The juice however, is the best part of the meal. The pineapple could be sweeter according to my fiance - but the watermelon tastes like pure watermelon and is mouth watering. The staff working were friendly and kind. We will be back!”
“We got our lunch catered today from Giliberto’s and it was outstanding! We did the nachos and there was so much food! Everything was fresh and well packaged for transport. Definitely will be doing this again.”
“Such a great healthy option. Place your veggies of choice, choose your meat(s) and pile the noodles high. Add your desired spices and they fry it up right on the grill for you. So good and even better saved for the next day ?”
“I've been going to Tokyo Sushi for years. The food is amazing, and everyone working there is hospitable and kind. The owner is very sweet. I highly recommend this restaurant.”
“From the initial phone call to picking up our cake, Tony delivers excellent customer service! You can tell he is truly passionate about his work. The artwork on the cake was wonderfully done and the cake tasted delicious. I'd give more stars if I could! We will definitely be using 2 Pins Bakery from here on out!”
“They were out of gluten free pasta and allowed me to substitute with a steak because of my many food restrictions and they comped my meal. The waiter and manager were extremely polite and considerate!Dietary restrictions: I am gluten and lactose intolerant. Along with having IBS. It would be nice if you would offer more gluten free options.”
“Such good energy! Got my coffee and breakfast, which of course met expectations. Additionally, though, the energy, kindness, and professionalism of the staff made my morning!”
“Jersey Mike's is a awesome place to eat. The Italian is my go to sandwich. Everyone is so friendly and helpful and makes me feel very comfortable with any questions I have. Daniel is doing a tremendous job. I always have a very pleasant experience when I go there. Should have posted this much earlier. Keep up the good ”
“Potbelly consistently has fresh, hot, and tasty food. The malts are delicious. I can recommend the banana malt. If you're in a hurry I recommend the drive-through as it clearly has top priority. There has been long waits in the past but it has gotten better.It's VERY cold inside, consistently.”
“Such a good experience. Heather is the absolute best, I've never experienced better service. Try the fish tacos and the fresh squeezed margarita!! Best wings in town.”
“Food is good and the owners are very friendly. They also own the small liquor shop next door that is a nice, more personal place to shop if you buy your own liquor.”
“One of the few MN wineries where I liked every single wine I've sampled. According to the owners, all wines are made from grapes grown in their own vineyard. Don't visit this winery very often, but enjoyed every visit. Staff is very knowledgeable, and friendly. Wine selection is exceptional, prices are decent. Would stack up this winery against nearly any Napa one ?”
“Our group of 15 agreed that the food was terrific, service was quick and friendly and as we stayed long past our meal, the staff was accommodating and welcoming. This is a hidden treasure in a small town. Glad we discovered it!”
