Restaurants in Saint Paul

“Great service and food!!!!”

“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”

“Hyacinth is a keeper. Creative food, well prepared, small but extremely well chosen wines. Portions were large, a bit too large in my view. Hyacinth is one of the few restaurants in the post Covid dining world that is daring to show us how innovative dining can be done.”

“I drove by this hidden gem weeks ago and finally was able to stop in for lunch today. I gotta say that this is some of the best tasting food I have experienced in Minnesota since returning home. I tried the Picadillo meal which was perfectly seasoned and not over salted like some places do. The rice was a perfect consistency and a freshy made salsa added a little kick to the meal. The customer service was top notch and I will definitely be back to try some of the other menu items. A+++”

“Incredible. Favorite restaurant of 2026 so far. Our server (Mark C) was knowledgeable and helpful. The roasted beets were one of the best things I’ve ever eaten and were very flavorful. The English pea gnocchi was also amazing. The cheeseburger lives up to the hype too. 11/10 recommend.”

“If you need your party catered, this is the place to go. Staff: Easy to work with, on time, good prices, friendly and very accommodating. Food: Gorgeous/amazing presentation , fresh, hot, professionally packed. I ordered from Red Rabbit in Saint Paul for my work holiday party. Everyone LOVED the food and the portions are generous. I was able to easily and beautifully display it. The timing was perfect and everything went smoother than I had hoped. This is your one stop shop for all of your party food needs. Hats off to the chefs and management for making our party wonderful.”

“Love this place. A true East Side gem. We have tried the Burgers, Shawarma wrap and bowls totally addicting. Chicken tenders are a hit and don't forget the Gyros they are awesome. Ice cream better than the DQ. Try to visit there one a week. The owners are lovely, very friendly.”

“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!”

“Accidentally arrived at Brunson's for lunch because the place down the road where we were supposed to go was closed. Best service I've had anywhere in America since before covid. Food was excellent, made from scratch, and doubt anyone could go wrong on the menu. Highly recommend.”

“Great Sandwiches, been eating there a long time. Great Staff, very patient and professional!”

“Bar+Cart offers a top-notch dining experience with a vibe that is unmatched in MSP, excellent food, and amazing cocktails. The attentive staff and warm hospitality make it perfect for any occasion. Highly recommended!”

“I truly can’t name a better restaurant in the twin cities. The food is amazing of course but the customer service knocks it out of the park for me every time. Thank you thank you thank you”

“Favorite steakhouse. Best managed restaurant”

“Truly amazing wood-fired hand crafted pizza!! Thoughtful & unique side sauces to complement their HANDMADE works of art. We enjoyed two dine in pies that included complementary dipping sauces! Our family favorite was the honey ranch and the hot honey that complemented their Hawaiian style Za perfectly. Let’s not forget the house made garlic aioli sauce *chefs kiss* We cannot wait to try their cheesesteak options when we return in a few weeks! Our family was visiting from Duluth, Mn and would be honored to have them in our city someday! Job well done! Thank you for having us!!”

“The food is insane good!!! Great atmosphere.”

“We celebrated with dinner at the Lexington and it was a perfect spot to try! Our waitress, Grace, was phenomenal and so attentive to us. She helped us celebrate with a surprise photo and ice cream sweet:) She went above to help our experience be wonderful! We loved the valet option and enjoyed our first time at the Lexington! 🥰”

“Highly recommend! Excellent. The restaurant is cozy and tropical and you feel like you’re on vacation. But the showstopper is the food. Pricey but worth every penny! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Today was my first time eating Herr and it was very good.”

“One of the best Restaurants in the Twin Cities. A once a week destination for decades. Get the show stopper #17.”

“We stumbled onto this place by picking it at random from google. We sat at the bar and had great recommendations from the servers / mixologists. We had a very enjoyable meal. Highly recommend finishing the meal with a fresh baked cookie 😀”

“Two linked reasons to visit: the store is exceptionally complete, with a wonderful meat cutting department!
The cafe has the most diverse and authentic Mexican food I have found in the Twin Cities. A walk-up ordering kiosk has replaced the former cafeteria style line. It takes abit of effort to master all the options. The checkout clerk can help. A lovely deli section is close to the cafe seating, allowing you to select some take home things while your food is cooked. Much recommended for any of their offerings!”

“The best breakfast and coffee in town..”

“Fast friendly service. Food was good and hot. Will come again when I visit next time!”

“Great dining experience with very friendly staff. We liked everything we tried.”

“My sister and I had lunch. We had the greatest waiter. Jordan. He was fun, attentive and had great drink and food suggestions. Even though he was by himself and ended up getting super busy, his warm personality still shined through. Great variety of foods on the menu”

“Great service, really good food, and the drinks were my favorite part!”

“Good was great.. good service.. The food 8/10.”

“Amazing staff - incredible service - delicious cocktails - excellent wine list - lovely ambience - delicious food”

“What a wonderful place. My boys took me here for dinner last night and it was fantastic. Great atmosphere, friendly staff and the food was incredible. I will be back again and again. Thank you!”

“Awesome food was skeptic at first but it's really good I scored a groupon for this huge platter. Will come back for lunch soon!”

“well the food was good and I is the waitress was friendly the crook was not I am a diabetic who needs to service animals I tried to explain to them that he was a must here for everybody and have dollars credential however they wouldn't even take the time to look at them the cook rolled his eyes and kind of walked away from me when he gave me my food and no one stop to ask me how my food was nothing made me feel not very welcoming so I don't know how I feel about going to eat there again”

“Place where McDonald's Cheeseburger buns are made...not sure it's open to the public but it is definitely open for semis trucks delivering for McDonald's warehouse...”

“Such pleasant workers and efficient service. It is really a nice place to dine in and the food is always delicious.”

“Valentines Day, reservations required. This was so fun!! We choose to celebrate our 1st wedding anniversary, which so happens to also be Valentine's Day, at White Castle. The restaurant was decorated with hearts, balloons, decorated tables even included a candle. It was adorable 😍 We were warmly greeted at the door by staff. We were then seated at a cute table. All the staff were dressed in red and hearts. Smiles galore. We were offered a special printed Valentines menu. We enjoyed the table service, such a nice touch. When I made the original reservation, I included the comment that we were celebrating our 1st wedding anniversary. To our surprise the staff went out of their way to treat us to a bottle of sparkling juice served in champagne glasses. What a lovely touch!!! They really made our dinner extra special. We dined on cheese sliders, onion chips, shrimp nibbles, fish nibbles and chocolate shakes. Everything was fresh hot and perfectly cooked. Yummy !!!
Big thank you to the staff that made our 1st wedding celebration one to remember ❤️ Was a fun Valentines Date!!!”

“Love ❤️ ‘em! Been eating ‘em for years! Buy ‘em by the sack!”

“I got a small meal on a cold, slow Sunday night. The drive-thru has that ai speaker, which I normally dislike, but this one was working very well, and had its thoughts displayed on a screen. Very helpful. With it being slow, my food was cooked fresh. The guy at the window was very friendly. Plus, it's open 24 hours! It's easy enter- enter on Rice Street.”

“Great to finally have a Wendy's on this side of town! It seems to be a good location too, I've gone several times now, and have never been disappointed. The food is good, the fries are fresh, and the staff is friendly and helpful. Would recommend going here!”

“I actually ordered off Uber Eats and got the Cajun CHX Mac and cheese. The chicken was a little over cooked and heavily seasoned and the pasta was cooked to perfection and really tasted delicious. Honestly if the meat was diced and mixed in with the pasta this would have been an amazing dish, instead I was served a whole chicken breast with the macaroni. Not the worst thing in the world, the flavors were spot on and I think this place has been making better food than some of the reviews from 1-3 years ago suggest. If the chicken was cut up and mixed in this would be a five star review.”

“Made some modifications and that kind of seemed to throw off the people working. Charged for BBQ sauce I didn't get. Also, their new Rodeo Whopper was really good. I ordered the combo, but maybe I didn't order it correctly because it had 1 burger patty but the menu showed double. Not my favorite trip to BK, but it was fine enough, I suppose.”

“It's Wendy's. Generally no gripes but this franchise should do better to plow their lot and drive thru following a Snow storm. Their parking lot area is currently very hazardous.”

“This Wendy’s is in a strange location, but the staff are excellent - service is quick, accurate and friendly. These folks are hard workers. Wendy’s food is Wendy’s food, but (for dine-in) the fries here are consistently much better than expected.”

“Enjoyed the Bacon Double Stack Biggie Bag this Sunday December 22, 2019 at the Suburban Avenue Saint Paul Wendy's. An enjoyable, affordable meal :)”

“Super fast, they checked to see if i was good before my order was up. I preordered in the car and less than 2 minutes it was up. The food is so fresh Amazing team here.”

“The Thursday afternoon staff was amazing, came by around 8pm and got an exceptional service. The staff was very kind and brought the food to me. Keep up the good work”

“Food was good and hot but they forgot my 2 mcchickens . Girl at the window got it right for me and was very friendly. I asked her name to let her boss know about her good customer service and I think her name was Michelle. KEEP HER IN THE WINDOW (haha)”

“Fresh seasonal flavors that are constantly becoming new favorites. I love that everything is a very hands on and not crazy processed like most foods. Try oatmeal cookie or grasshopper if you can.”

“always tasty and quality. love the friendly and quick staff. Vietnamese coffee can be too sweet for me but they'll adjust it for you.”

“Everytime We come to bole, the service is always excellent and the food is delicious.”

“Conny's creamy cone is a good place to go to eat during the summer time they are a good classic ice cream shop with other varieties of food it is a One-Stop place to go if you like the old throwback in the old throwback way”

“Everything!! Food and service is amazing. ❤️”

“Freaking amazing classic hand scooped ice cream. Crazy flavors and highly recommend the "This $&@! Just Got Crazy"... yea, its that good.We also got to meet the owners too. This is truly the local small business experience you should be supporting. You just have to stop by and see for yourself.”

“We have been to this location, and only this location, a number of times now. We won’t go anywhere else, because this is the best! LOVE the turkey burger, always cooked to perfection, and the California burger? *chef’s kiss* Also, the whipped cookies and cream shake is far better than anything I’ve ever had at Dairy Queen, and more affordable. Great service, customer-focused service, and terrific food - you couldn’t ask for more!”

“Food was good. The owner was very nice, and friendly service for kids. Had Dahi Puri after a long time.”

“Skinner's did an amazing job catering our U of M Employee Appreciation event...EVERYONE was Happy. Thank you!”

“Friendly staff, fast service, clean atmosphere & there’s always good music being played. I am obsessed with the gai rolls! So delicious! If you haven’t had them please get them! I definitely recommend trying this place at least once, you’ll definitely be back though.”

“Absolutely delicious! 5 stars! ☺️”

“Hot delicious food and friendly staff. I go here when I want to treat myself!”

“Great place to hang out before your flight! Andy is a fantastic bartender. Shrimp tacos were excellent.”

“it's just so good, y'all.”

“It’s the first time. Nice place. Good coffee. Friendly staffs 🥰”

“Delicious coffee and baked goods! Our team loves picking up from your Cafe! 💫”

“We stopped for brunch. It was amazing. We told Mike the owner we were in a rush. He was amazing. Food also was delicious. Staff told me later, they all agree he’s the best boss anyone has ever had. Thanks, Mike. It was a pleasure to dine with you. We stopped by later and they had just closed at 2 PM. But they even offered us coffee to go. We’ll be back. Great restaurant, great people!”

“The BEST donut I've ever had! Hubby brought home two Blackberry Bliss to enjoy with our morning coffees; we savored every bite! Delicious!”

“I will recommend king Cajun to the people in Saint Paul I tried it and it is perfect”

“What a great place to be! Was just in town for a couple days on my own and had the pleasure to have Ryan as my bartender. He was so helpful and genuine. This place really makes home feel not so far away! Thank you Ryan for making me feel so welcome and loved!”

“This is the best Thai food around! I’ve never been disappointed in the food, and the service is always amazing. Super fast pick up times for take out, and a beautiful patio for summer. This is my ultimate favorite St. Paul restaurant. Don’t miss out on this gem. Menu highlights for me are Pad Krapao, Laab Isaan, curry fried rice and Pad Woon Sen! 😋”

“Super friendly workers. Delicious and beautifully prepared food. Immaculate dining room. They also do take out. You won’t be disappointed!!”

“Delicious and always fresh! We go every weekend for empanadas and (not sure the name) sesame , brioche type bun with cream cheese and jalapeños. That is the best thing ever. Better than a bagel.
Thank you for your hard work and super friendly people!”

“Great flavor in the burger, nice waiter, unique place. Eat downstairs, you'll love it.”

“We love this place. Best Neapolitan pizza.
Always a table available. Fast service. Order at the counter and meal is brought to you by friendly staff.
There is a nice patio during warm weather months. A free parking lot or on street parking.”

“That fresh juice 🔥! I tried it at a Black Market event”

“Excellent place for sushi. Great atmosphere as well.”

“Lulu’s is a true neighborhood gem! The staff is incredibly friendly, and the food is beyond delicious. The gordita and alambre are absolute standouts, and everything else we have enjoyed here is delicious too. We love having this place in our neighborhood and hope it stays for a long time!”

“Best bar in town for things European and off the beaten path. Absolutely amazing selection! Not a full kitchen/restaurant but very far from the minimum. Everything they have to eat is high quality. Very nice employees and great atmosphere.”

“This is as close to it gets for being in Jamaica. Outstanding authentic food!”

“Rated highly if you enjoy a great selection of beers in a welcoming setting. Need to plan a return visit soon as there were too many tempting choices to get through them all!”

“great food awesome staff”

“If this place served nothing but the breakfast sandwich, it would still be one of my favorite joints in the cities. Every ingredient is perfect, and lovingly crafted into one of the tastiest, heartiest breakfasts you've ever held in your hand. Add to that some great service and friendly atmosphere and you've got a place worth coming back to any chance you get. Also a big fan of their snickerdoodles and the Reuben sandwich - I'm told the vegetarian Reuben (with smoked beets instead of corned beef) is good if you're into that kind of thing.”

“Best food in twin The Twin Cities - The sabich is 100 - Bagels and schmear are fire - Once they make jachnun ill move in”

“Good food, great service, reasonable prices.”

“Over all best experience I have had. Thank you so much and I’ll be coming here more often. I am just starting my vegan journey and this place makes great food! The staff is super friendly too”

“I’ve been on a journey of trying different matcha lattes around the twin cities area and decided to give this one a try! The workers were the nicest people ever and the service was amazing, my drink was ready in literally a minute. I ordered the regular matcha and not only was it the best one I’ve had so far in the twin cities but by far the best matcha I’ve ever had in my entire life so I had to leave a review. It was perfectly sweetened and had a good level of matcha flavor that you could really taste without being overtaken by the milk/too sweet. It was also very creamy and the most vibrant green. Definitely will be returning ☺️”

“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!”

“Best halibut & shrimp ever!”

“....yes..5 star..I enjoyed the Gangjeong.(FAB)Korean,Crispy,Spicy!! ...great fries..I'll do rice next time.. I'm going at least once a week!!..West Lake St...super cool counter folks with a smile! ☆☆☆☆☆”

“Ninas drinks are delicious. But I ordered a bagel and cream cheese last week. Im thinking the bagel was fresh or from a local bakery...it was from a bag like from a grocery store. Maybe Im fancy because I like my bagels to be fresh. But if you end up ordered a bagel just know its a regular bagel you can get from the grocery store. The cream cheese was also from a Philadelphia packet of cream cheese. So if youre looking for fresh bagels look some where else. Come here for the drinks.”

“I got the triple berry crepe with dark chocolate sauce and it was delish!! The star of the plate was the unassuming whipped cream. I’ve never had whipped cream like it before and it’s honestly the best I’ve ever tasted so don’t skimp on it. I also tried one of the croffels and was blown away by the many layers familiar to croissants made crispy by being cooked in a waffle iron. I can’t say enough about the flavors and textures experienced at Paris Crepes & Boba Tea. The cherry on the top is the speedy and friendly service. This place is a must try if you enjoy crepes and croissants. 👍🏼👍🏼”

“Burgers unrivaled by none. Nice pours, friendly faces, staff is professional and just really cool, and the pull tabs support SPFD. Doesn’t get any better. #eastside #stpaul”

“Excellent food and staff!!”

“We love Tin Cup Plus for its welcoming atmosphere, beautiful decor, and wonderful food from an extensive menu. We are vegetarians, and the veggie sampler is fabulous. We also love the fact that cocktails are available from the gorgeous sparkling, long bar. The booth seating is so comfortable. And we appreciate the easy parking - the lot is right out the front door. Visit this special place soon!”

“Went here for the first time 3/11/26. I'm just going to say the experience was amazing. Food was fantastic service was top notch very friendly staff. the lovely lady at the door greeted us with a perfect smile (loved her hair) definitly will visit again”

“I almost order a pizza from Dominos (med pan 3 toppings) total for delivery was $30.75 before tip. Got a lunch and appetizer delivered. $27.00 with tip. AND THIS WIIL TASTES GOOD instead of cardboard with tomato soup on it.”

“Absolutely the worst service. This is affiliated with University Club of Saint Paul notoriously known for terrible service. No attention to detail. We were served the wrong food. The service was significantly delayed and the food was mediocre at best. Don’t spend your money here until they fix this problem.”

“I am Sue's sister and she is telling me you are listening to the same pod casters as we are. I wish we could meet. Exciting times! Keep the faith. Q=17! God is in control! Someday we will meet.”

“Best pupusas I have had! So GOOD! The wait staff is friendly , the food is hot and delicious. The ( I don’t know what it is called- but it’s cabbage with jalapeños and some sort of yummy sauce. Is delicious! It makes the pupusas even better! The cheese is as melted perfectly- mmmm so good! Check them out!”

“King Boreas (aka: Peter Kenefick) and his staff know how to run a Friendly/Welcoming Restaurant - great food, drinks, service, and atmosphere - ALWAYS!”

“Had many more dishes on the iron range”

“Shake Shack is my new favorite fast food burger. I've taken 2 flights out of MSP lately and gotten this great burger. The same older black woman was at the counter both times and she was so sweet and kind it improved the experience. 5 stars, will be back.”

“Good service and good coffee. The owner recognized me on the second time i came in and already knew what I wanted. He is friendly and engages me in conversation when there are no other customers waiting.”

“Myself and my fiancé are from Northern Minnesota and were there in July of last year. There were a couple of minor issues with our visit that day, but the food was delightful. Our server suggested that the manager may want to speak with me in regard to our experience, given the nature of the issues that occurred, so I left my business card and honestly forgot about it, as it wasn't that big of a deal to me. Some time later I received a letter at my office from the manager (I found out later that she's actually the owner.) She sent me a check to refund the cost of our meal, along with a very nice note of explanation and apology. The refund was way above and beyond what was necessary or expected. She took full responsibility for the issues that we had experienced at her establishment that day in July. She also asked for another opportunity to serve us the next time that we were in the area. This was a very classy (but unexpected) response to what I would consider to be something that wasn't that big of a deal to me, but it clearly was to her. Given the high standards that she clearly demonstrated for her establishment, there was no doubt that I would honor her request for a second opportunity. This last Saturday we were finally in town again and were able to visit the Basil Café for a second time. We had an absolutely delightful experience in every regard! After our meal, I asked the pleasant young lady that was checking on us if the manager happened to be in on a Saturday. Well, that turned out to be her! Her name is Tiffany, and she is the owner of the Basil Café. I introduced myself to her and she not only remembered the letter that she had sent and the small issues that occurred on our previous visit, but she also remembered my full name from memory!!! We had a very nice conversation and she sent us home with some extra spring rolls that we enjoyed at home later that evening. Tiffany, I also run a business, and the way that you treated us and handled that situation is an impressive lesson in customer service and leadership. You didn't just recover us as customers, you created 2 raving fans of your business through your actions and demeanor along with your wonderful cuisine. You easily could have brushed off the initial experience that we had last year. And, while we weren't upset about it, we likely wouldn't have thought to ever return to your establishment if you had. Instead, you held yourself and your wonderful restaurant to a higher standard, and you made 2 raving fans that will return again and again and will recommend your establishment at every opportunity. Tiffany, thank you for a wonderful dining experience and thank you for a refreshing attitude and demonstration of personal responsibility that you so impressively gave. That level of service and attention to detail is rare in our world today. BTW, the Drunken Noodles are delicious and so are the Spring rolls. We will see you again soon. - Jake & E.”

“We stopped for brunch. It was amazing. We told Mike the owner we were in a rush. He was amazing. Food also was delicious. Staff told me later, they all agree he’s the best boss anyone has ever had. Thanks, Mike. It was a pleasure to dine with you. We stopped by later and they had just closed at 2 PM. But they even offered us coffee to go. We’ll be back. Great restaurant, great people!”

“Love this place. A true East Side gem. We have tried the Burgers, Shawarma wrap and bowls totally addicting. Chicken tenders are a hit and don't forget the Gyros they are awesome. Ice cream better than the DQ. Try to visit there one a week. The owners are lovely, very friendly.”

“Good food, good service, good price.”

“I lived 3 minutes away from this place and it is a blessing. If im sick or tired at all a meal replacement shake completely changes my day! They remember my name and give me lots of patience when ordering. So nice”

“Get some good food, go do a little shopping for some high quality ingredients or pre made Italian take home food, and then wrap it up with an espresso and gelato. That is the recommended order when you visit here 😀😀”

“First timers and we were blown out of the water! Staff was so attentive and knowledgeable! Food was fresh, cooked perfectly and savory! The LOBSTER MAC WAS 🔥🔥🔥🔥. Can’t wait to come back! Will made amazing bourbon recommendations in the bar and surpassed every expectation we had for our first visit. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!”

“Great flavor in the burger, nice waiter, unique place. Eat downstairs, you'll love it.”

“Food was good. The owner was very nice, and friendly service for kids. Had Dahi Puri after a long time.”

“Great place with great owners who are real team players!”

“This is a nice smaller lounge that offers comfortable seating and tasty food. The only thing thats different than other lounges is that there are no restrooms inside. You will have to exit and renter the lounge to use the restroom.”

“Rebecca was so attentive and super fun! I have been going to Buca for years, but needed to shout out the St. Paul location for it's great atmosphere and friendly staff.”

“The food was amazing! It was our first time and we loved it. The service needs a lot of work. There was a line but it moved fast and we were quick to place our order. It took 40 minutes to receive the food after ordering. Everyone else was receiving their food after a reasonable wait time except me and the couple that ordered right after us. I had to ask at the 30 min mark and then finally received it at 40 min. We ordered to eat in but received it all in a take out bag. We ordered a #1 (received a #1 but charged a #2 on the receipt) a #3 ( but only received 1 slider, tender was missing) and a #4 (but received and extra slider). We made it work since we got the total # of chickens that we asked for and could not wait any longer for them to correct it. The dining room is a mess! We were there for well over an hour and not once did anyone come out to wipe down tables as diners were leaving. Everyone that came in had to sit at a dirty table if they wanted to dine in. An employee, in uniform, was eating at the far back right corner table during dinner rush ( Friday night 5:30). When the employee finished they also did not wipe down the table and left it dirty for the next diner. The overall service is unimpressive for a location that just recently opened (Cicero, NY). We will go back because the food was fabulous but we will not be dining in and will definitely check our order before leaving.”

“Good chips and salsa at a reasonable price”

“Great place to grab a bite to eat while in Lower Town. Very warm, inviting space, including games and Legos! The food was delicious and exactly as we ordered it. The staff was very kind and made sure we had everything we needed. We will definitely be back.”

“Truly amazing wood-fired hand crafted pizza!! Thoughtful & unique side sauces to complement their HANDMADE works of art. We enjoyed two dine in pies that included complementary dipping sauces! Our family favorite was the honey ranch and the hot honey that complemented their Hawaiian style Za perfectly. Let’s not forget the house made garlic aioli sauce *chefs kiss* We cannot wait to try their cheesesteak options when we return in a few weeks! Our family was visiting from Duluth, Mn and would be honored to have them in our city someday! Job well done! Thank you for having us!!”

“We had a party of 16 at short notice who needed to be accommodated and we were very well attended to. Little Oven Staff knocked it out of the park! Thank you all!”

“I am not in the area to visit this business but if you are or passing through Minnesota stop in. Tell them Josh sent you! They are kind and caring about their community and gave free meals to the Homeless. So please give them a visit. *I heard the food is a #10 too! Thanks Kong’s Kitchen!”

“Great food and excellent service. Highly recommend!!”

“Dinner date was great. Every dish we got was delicious. It took longer than we'd hope to get seated even with a reservation but the staff were super friendly. Moody vibe perfect for a date night.”

“Super cozy atmosphere and love the tasty Kava drinks ! Kava is a great way to relax with your friends and they have games and other themed nights I’ve noticed which keeps evenings interesting. Definitely love this trend and hope they open another closer to the cities.”

“The beverages are very good and the eats are delicious! Also the cats in the Den are awesome. And, one more thing, the decor is nothing short of amazing!”

“We love going there on winter and rainy days. Great place for getting out of the house and meeting other kids. Snacks are reasonably priced. The only thing I would change is they offer peanut butter sandwiches. As a mom of a kid with a nut allergy, I always feel kind of on edge about if a child has eaten the peanut butter sandwich and then not washed their hands and then it’s gotten on a toy that my kid will play with and then my kiddo will have a reaction. Or I’m constantly looking around at what kids are eating and if I have to ask my kid to watch out or the other kid if they can wash their hands. Now I totally get that the world does not revolve around my kiddos (and others) allergies, but at the same time there are a lot of kiddos with nut allergies (and most of them are anaphylactic) that it would be nice to have a sunflower butter or an almond butter instead of peanut butter. Both of these can be true at the same time. Anyway, great place to go, good prices on snack, but wished they didn’t have pb&j sandwiches”

“We went to the cities to see Evanescence on the 20th of September and had layover time for the concert to start so my husband and I walked from the venue to Little Brazil. Unfortunately, we got absolutely drenched walking back to the show. Not only that, but we forgot our precious signed posters from the band at our table . The staff saved our posters and kept them safe until we made it back to get them the next day which we truly appreciated. They would have been destroyed by the weather otherwise. We were SO enamored with this gem of a place, it was WORTH the soaked clothes, chattering teeth and watching the rest of the concert soaked through! There is definitely something for everyone whether it be coffee, dessert, sandwiches. They also have a market of imported goods to try like chocolate, candies, snacks etc. Now whenever we are near the cities, it's going to be a must stop! 💖”

“You absolutely can’t go wrong. The food is fabulous. The service is great and the atmosphere is very friendly, and inviting. We had the kitchen special and it was more than enough for two people. Most tender juicy chicken we’ve ever had.. A pleasure going there always!”

“Talk about amazing people! I had the mango moss and it did not disappoint! They were so kind and helpful and not to mention so patient with my kids. Love love love”

“Would highly recommend their Poke bowls! I had the Big Island Bowl which was delicious and filling. Service was quick, food was fresh, and enough seating was available. We will go back again!”

“This location is fairly new and I am amazed at how efficient and organized they are. The store is always clean and well maintained. I ordered 3 sandwiches, each one different, and they were perfect. Staff is amazingly friendly and helpful. We ❤️ Jersey Mike's and will be back at this location for sure!”

“Absolutely delicious gelato! The chocolate was so rich and I had it with the hazelnut flavor, perfect combo. The games were fun too and my husband won me a stuffed capybara. We’ll definitely go back! 😊”

“Just a few doors down from the Turf Club sits a genuine hole- in- the- wall gem. A unique dining experience of food with flavors to expand your pallet. We had the yebeg tibs and veggie sambusa and a just in case order of chicken strips and french fries, which, while delicious, remained largely untouched as the yebeg lamb tibs and veggies entree was the star of the table. A No Forks Allowed shared entree with flavors that dance in your mouth, the bread (is that what it's called?) comes rolled up and the protein sits on top like a carpet. You grab a little piece of bread and scoop it up and make a mess and laugh and eat and EAT. The sauce was a savory, smoky collection of herbs and with a Minnesota Nice kick of spice, if my 70 yo mom could handle it, you can handle it. The umami was out of this world (and helps me to finally be able to define the taste, actually) The veggie sambusa was a perfectly fried pillow of yummy veggies with a salsa for dipping and the chicken strips were fried to perfection with fluffy french fries. The server was fast, friendly, and offered suggestions and answered questions we had about the menu. This restaurant is an invitation to a cultural exhibition of flavor and best of all, our 2 entrees — both large enough to share with at least 3 people) 2 drinks, and 1 app were reasonably priced at under $50.00.

“Stopped in around 9pm on a Monday night in early January 2026. Kitchen was still open, we called ahead so they knew we were coming and said kitchen stays open until 30 minutes prior to closing which was midnight that night. Sofie was our bartender/sever/hostess/pull tab lady. She does it all! Prices are very reasonable, food was great we had pizza, wings & shrimp. The best part of the night was walking in and adding $20 to my etab machine and hitting $150! Will definitely be back!! Thank you Sofie & please thank the cook for us.”

“I ordered a chocolate cake for my son’s birthday, it was fantastic! It was chocolate sponge with chocolate buttercream and it tasted amazing, not too sweet, which we appreciated. The decoration was incredible, it looked just like a wooden stump, and we added our own little figurines on top. Everyone raved about it. It was expensive, but well worth it!
Everything else I’ve purchased from the bakery has been delicious and affordable.”

“My 15 yr old nephew and I went for a treat and it was fabulous! I had a churro and coffee drink, he had a churro ice cream sandwich. We both enjoyed the food and ambiance. The service was AMAZING! Thank you!”

“My wife and I joined my buddy Ronnie and his wife Carla for a Sunday jazz brunch. We enjoyed the jazz guitarist and food was delicious...I had the chicken and johnny cakes. I gotta figure out how they fixed that chicken!”
