Dietary restrictions: I had a diabetes-friendly option

Parking: I didn't count them but I bet there's parking 400

Kid-friendliness: It is a bar and restaurant but I've seen kids playing outside that live in the marina. They played with my puppy dog.

“You can’t go wrong with any of the food at 328 Grill! Burgers are delicious! Tots are amazing! Fish fry is Gold worthy! 10 out of 10 recommend!“

“Wonderful local bar! Family owned“

“5 stars is not nearly enough stars for this place. I have celiac disease (severe wheat/gluten allergy) and when I saw gluten free cheese curds and gluten free fried pickles on the menu, I about cried. I haven’t had cheese curds or fried pickles at a sports bar since I was diagnosed 11 years ago. Their food is absolutely incredible- something you normally wouldn’t expect from a place like this. I’m so grateful to whoever created the menu!

Dietary restrictions: Tons of gluten free options! Designated fryer for the fried items listed as gluten free!“

“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“

“Love the atmosphere and food, and we love sitting in Lauren S’s section. Always happy and helpful!!“

“If anyone would like a good restaurant to eat at I would suggest going to the North Pole restaurant in Newport Minnesota. The staff are nice and when you ask them for something they will get it for you right away.“

“Absolutely phenomenal! Menu changes often so there's always a reason to come back. Their service is top notch and the food is some of the best I've had. See mussels with curry squash and a mini pumpkin with duck and everything else good. *Chef's kiss*“

“Lunch today for the first time at Mallards BAYSHORE - the fish fry was excellent, cozy pretty interior, service was top notch. Can't wait to come back, the happy hour looks fun!“

“Excellent Italian Hoagie!“

“Our first time there on Wednesday night. Service was excellent, Kendra was fantastic. The deviled eggs with shrimp was awesome The six of us all had something different from the scallops to the walleye to the salmon all fantastic. There was also dessert like bread pudding to banana cream pie, also fantastic. Can’t wait till our next dinning experience. It will be real soon!“

“Greeted upon arrival and served with the utmost professionalism and care. The food?! Oh my goodness, please try the wings! We had Caribbean Jerk and Korean BBQ and they were dynamite. Based on the rest of our food- which was SO good, I’m sure the other wings will not disappoint either! Pleasantly surprised by this hidden gem. Will be returning to try more items on the menu!“

“Love the updated interior. Brings life back to a very enjoyed establishment. Always nice to see new and old faces.“

“They always have delicious food. Sloppy hot dago, chef salad, and daily specials are always my favorites.“

“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.“

“Place has potential. Food is definitely solid. Not going to blow you away but it’s good. Smash burger could use more seasoning but loved the onions and meat skirt. Dry rub wings were lacking in flavor, needed a lot more seasoning. My friend got the Buffalo wings and loved the sauce on those. No home made ranch which is disappointing. Cheese curds are a small portion and are just frozen not hand breaded. Drinks are pretty spendy if you are not there for happy hour. Great spot before a wild game or other Xcel events but parking isn’t ideal and food isn’t good enough to seek out any other night. Place was dead on a Friday night.“

“We love coming here as a family! everyone is sooooo nice, and really likes to give off a good family vibe. Also don't think we have ever had a bad meal. we will keep coming back!“

“Amazing service, excellent food and what they have done with the space is phenomenal. You are truly missing out if you do not experience this amazing restaurant!“

“I recently had the pleasure of being served by Jasmine and Donna at Machine Shed- Lake Elmo the last 2 mornings. From the moment we arrived, they greeted us with a warm smile and genuine enthusiasm.

Throughout the meal, their attentiveness was remarkable. They anticipated our needs, refilling drinks and checking in at just the right moments, all while balancing other tables with ease. The knowledge of the menu was impressive; they offered excellent recommendations and made sure we had everything we needed for a great dining experience.

What stood out most was their friendly demeanor—which made us feel like valued guests rather than just another table. Their professionalism and positive energy truly enhanced our meal.

Overall, our visit memorable, and I can’t wait to return to Machine Shed for another fantastic experience!“

“Really good experience at the Culver’s in Woodbury Minnesota. Doing curbside and a shake tipped over in my car and the guy who brought it out was nice enough to go get towels and a new shake. Definitely did not have to do that. It was completely my fault, but he went above and beyond For customer that is a rare thing to find“

“My husband and I moved to Hastings a little over a year ago and around that time we went here several times with awful service, and food, so we stopped going. About 6 months or so later we tried again and it’s definitely better. Tonight there were several mistakes with my to go order and Theresa the manager went above and beyond to make things right. I can tell big improvements have been made and I wanted to acknowledge that and let management know that it’s noticed and appreciated.“

“A cozy, wood and window bar and grill that is so welcoming, I am charging my power wheel chair in here welcomed to do it by a beautiful and happy waitress. Not a drinker, but bet I get food here in the near future! On corner across from Mears Park who failed my electric access w pad locks! lol. Life is an adventure and its businesses like this that make a crisis, not one. Makes it a warm visit instead. Home town Saint Paul is represented here. Thank you Bulldog!“

“Everything is always awesome here! Highly recommend!“

“My go to spot when I'm craving a Philly, best one I've had in the cities for sure 🔥. On top of having amazing food, the service is second to none as well! This food truck is a MUST TRY!“

“Good service and food. We were there right before closing. Great job“

“I've had this place in my want to go list forever. I live quite close, and I'm mad at myself for wasting the last few years not coming here. I had the special breakfast burrito. For the love of all that's breakfast, make it permanent. It was one of the best I've ever had.“

“My absolute favorite vegan eating establishment in the Twin Cities!! Friendly staff, amazing food!“

“Hervorragendes Essen! Besonders für diejenigen, die glutenfrei essen müssen, ist dies eine sehr gute Wahl. In Anbetracht der zunehmenden Gesundheitsbewusstheit sollten solche glutenfreien Alternativen in Deutschland unbedingt mehr verbreitet werden. Sie bieten nicht nur Sicherheit, sondern auch Genuss für alle, die auf Gluten verzichten müssen.“

Vegetarian options: Salads, soups, pastas that I can recall.

Kid-friendliness: Very accepting and accommodating“

“Waitress was nice, but slow more worried about her friend birthday and singing to them than serving us. Had to wait and wait.

Kid-friendliness: All they have is a menu that you doodle on.

Wheelchair accessibility: Handicap parking and entrance“

“Excellent food! Great staff.“

“Great place to visit before and after Wild games!!!!“

“Went at 9pm for date night.
This place restores the soul. Beauty abounds. Crisp Nightcap rocks.
Thoughtful NA options.

3 deviled eggs, not 4? Boohoo. Burger is worth at most, $15, not $21.
Bar food is telling me: "You should just eat in the restaurant, you fool!" Not at all bad, not at all great.“

“Good food, great service, reasonable prices.“
