“Had lunch there today and it was great! Loved the baquette and beef and pickles and chips! And cream soda! Also, attentive and kind staff!“

“My friend and I had an incredible time at Owamni. My compliments to the chef. Truly one of a kind experience. The food was outstanding from start to finish ( presentation, flavor profile, texture, all natural and full of character). There’s not a place that’s more unique than Owamni in Minnesota, in my opinion . I highly recommend this establishment, and I wish you prosperity and success.“

“I agree with previous poster. I will be dreaming of Francis now. Door was FABULOUS! Atmosphere is quaint. Francis is my new favorite“

“Nice atmosphere! I don't drink coffee, but I enjoyed their chai latte and they had a bunch of delicious looking pastry options. Also love that the profits support youth futsal programs!“

“I came here for the first time last week and I am so happy I decided to dine. The staff was absolutely phenomenal. Cyrus our waitstaff was very attentive, knowledgeable and outgoing. He explained everything in depth and provided recommendation based on our interest. He inquired about our dietary restrictions as well which made his recommendations even more personable. I ordered the sweet potatoe korokke, maitake karaage and the mentaiko lumache. My partner ordered the pork gyoza and the squid ink peppardelle. Everything we ordered arrived prompt and was absolutely phenomenal! The sweet potatoe korokke and the maitake karaage was my favorite due to the flavour, presentation as well as the texture. I enjoy crunchy yet flavourful dishes. I also LOVED the mentaiko lumache, it was very creamy and light. I would absolutely return as this is one of my favorite restaurants. Highly recommend due to service and the quality of the food.“

“Forgotten Star has a great and historic location in Fridley, Minnesota. The staff is stellar and the beer is good. Forgotten Star is a shining example of what craft beer is. Great space, great people, great beer. They are part of the lifeblood of the community. There is always plenty going on. Whether that is a kid's story time, curling or disc golf leagues. Sign up for a Mug Club membership. Enjoy a treat from the Hodegpodge food truck. When you have the chance, check out Forgotten Star.“

“Great tour by Cade. Beautiful facility and even better whiskey. Can’t wait to go back!“

“Phenomenal Panama Louisiana infusion! So delicious, I absolutely cannot wait to go back and try more menu items!! 🤤🤤🤤“

“Edit: I finally dined there. The food was fantastic, my wife loved the onion rings and the careful service that we were given. Burgers were great. Coleslaw was actually refreshing, and not mayo dumped. Matt and his staff gave us a wonderful time on New Years Day. I will be back, with a bottle of heinz which is a small complaint.

Edit: The manager was very very prompt in responding to my email in resolving this year. In prompt it was less than about 30 minutes when I reached out via email. Which is actually, pretty darn impressive nowadays to take responsibility instead of passing the buck. They get five stars now.

I made Christmas reservations only to learn less than three days before Christmas that they weren't actually open. Their site allowed me to make a reservation. I called them to confirm if they were closed as I found out not from them at all. They did confirm it, and then laid blame on my insisuating that since they've never been open for Xmas, I should of known. Okay, then tell that to your reservation page.Pathetic service right before the holidays.

Even after I called and said it was taken down. It's still up allowing others to book a reservation. I hope there ain't some family that shows up expecting a reservation thay never should of been placed.“

“Great coffee place! What makes this place special is the owners providing a separate building for AA meetings that run from dusk to dawn. Now that is Good Karma!“

“A must visit in the north loop! Great beer! Amazing people! The perfect place to visit before a twins game or any day really… Cory, thank you for the hospitality. I look forward to coming back soon!“

“Amazing food, the pizza is to die for“

“They have wonderful chai, a good breakfast and very chill vibes. Great little coffee shop!“

“Lovely atmosphere with great staff and fabulous cider! Watching the younger generation curling was so fun!“

“Myself and four friends were in Minneapolis for a few days on a visit from Ireland and had breakfast here a few times. Food was delicious. Great choice on the menu. Service was brilliant. Staff friendly and efficient.“

“Spice & Rice is one of my favorite food options in Brooklyn Park. I decided to build my own rice bowl on my latest trip. Crispy and juicy fried chicken, white rice, fresh broccoli and bell peppers, and jerk sauce. Absolutely delicious bowl and it paired well with the clypso egg rolls. I’ve had the island beef patty, shrimp bowls, and the reggae shrimp on prior visits (all amazing). Everything is made to order so the quality is top shelf and well worth the wait. Never a bad meal here, plenty of Jamaican and Asian fusion to be excited about!“

“The best kept secret in Saint Paul. Sunset beer and pizza in this tall grass wild flower patio soothes my soul like no other bar or brewery. The beer itself is simply tasty while maintaining a sophistication other breweries lose with their hyperbolic flavor and naming schemes. Truly the best there is.“

“Always love stopping by mudslinger's while out running errands. The only downside is that the line can get long in the mornings, especially on weekends. Despite this, they work quickly and I love supporting a small local business!

Kid-friendliness: They have a kids cocoa“

“Great staff. Plenty of menu selections with weekly specials. We've become regulars. Going back tonight.“

“We loved our private pickle ball party here! They made it really easy to bring additional games in! We brought in giant Jenga and Corn hole and there was ample space! :) Food was good and it was great! Would recommend bringing in your own speakers if you want louder/different music.

Many of our friends inquired about it for future parties there too! :) Also, communication was great via email for planning. Thank you Mpls Cider Company!“

“absolutely love Wagner's Drive-In!!! my fav go to is the grilled chicken sandwich with pepperjack cheese, bacon, raw onion and the regular toppings! my girls and I love walking over there for ice cream and they also love the fries..... if u want the flavor of a homemade burger and grilled chicken sandwiches without having to cook this is the place to go! staff is sooooo nice and friendly!“

“I love whiteys and the bartender Jazzy is one of my favorite bartenders when I come back home and visit. Being in the industry I love visiting her.“

“love this place. friendly owners. delicious food and drinks“

“*cue How to Train Your Dragon meme*
"You're as beautiful as the day I lost you..."

Seriously one of the best taprooms in the Twin Cities. And among the best beers in the state. I'm glad to be back after so many years!“

“I enjoyed the drinks and games. Staff was awesome, Adrian was very helpful.“

“My wife and I have been to La Mesa a handful of times and have never been disappointed( including our second date, its a great date spot). La mesa is a hidden gem tucked away in the neighborhood with a great outdoor space in the summer. In my opinion, they have some of the best pizza in the city The corn pizza is my favorite and the weekly special last week was slow roasted pork and chimichurri sauce which was delicious. Great place, good service, and nice atmosphere and would recommend to anyone looking for a fun date night or something different than a bar and grill. I just recommend to a co worker and she really enjoyed it!“

“First time was a great experience. Definitely will return“

“Lots of fun. Great place to hang out.“

“Great selection and great beer garden. Loved my beer! High quality. Food available.“

“Amazing drinks! Beautiful space“

“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.“

“Best microbrewery I’ve been to, and I’ve been to a few! Had to experience the “beer poke”, graciously administered by our excellent bartender. All beers are true to style and delicious. The space is awesome, food trucks in case you’re hungry.“

“Friendly, good food, reasonable pricing“

“Absolutely wonderful! Staff is fun, friendly, and personable. We recently co-hosted an event at Inbound and everything was flawless! Great communication and a huge following that really helped promote the event. The drinks are delicious and even the clientele is great! We can't wait to be back!“

“Would not work with this venue again, as they do not operate in good faith with their artists. They intentionally lied and misled a group of full-time working artists, and will probably continue to do so moving forward, as venues like this tend to fall into habit of mistreating acts Disappointing to say the least, I would not support live entertainment here. I can guarantee you the money is not going and the hands of the performers or producers putting on the events, as it should. If you are a performer or producer yourself, please look elsewhere, there are many other fantastic venues in the nearby neighborhoods that are worth supporting and working with.“

“A great area for dogs of all sizes to run outdoors, attentive staff to manage any pup issues, a great menu, and great drinks! It's a fantastic place to spend an evening with friends and your dogs without worrying about keeping your dog on your heels. There is also an indoor area for rainy or snowy days.“

“awesome food, service and atmosphere. thanks for making our lunch awesome Sara.“

“the wings, obvi, are the best. I will not eat wings anywhere else because they are not going to even be close to what Mavericks is producing. followed up by literally everything else on the menu. I havent tried something Ryan and Co have created that I didn't love. the flavors are thought out and balanced perfectly. I have never once said, "this is good, but it'd be better if x", because the kitchen knows what they are doing! I can't wait to go back and eat my fill again. p.s. I'm a super picky eater. the food here is that good.“

“Great coffee, really clean place and super friendly people. We will be back!“

“great coffee, great service, the club sandwich is amazing.... will come back often...“

“Really great Beer. Party Forward IPA was fantastic.“

“it was our first time there on Saturday friendly bartenders and staff we will for sure be back most definitely had a fun time!“

“Great variety of products! Meat raffle was free with the opportunity of winning free meat, beer or girl scout cookies.“

“Absolutely amazing food for a great price! Definitely try the Hurricane Fries!!“

“I looooveee this cafe!!! The staff are absolutely incredible and create the best experience! Special shoutout to Andrew and Zach for being so nice and welcoming! I love coming here and chilling out in their lobby. They have a tonnn of seating, but it still gets super busy and filled up! The only thing that I don't like is how busy this place is, but it makes sense given how great every aspect of it is!!! Super lovely vibes and the drinks are even better. There's a ton of options on their menu for you to choose from and if you have any questions, the staff is super helpful with accommodations! I love their apple cider and I wish they had it 24/7! Super delicious. They also have a ton of parking which is great because Minneapolis is known for being difficult with that. I absolutely love the vibes of this place and definitely will be coming back all the time.“

“Unbelieveable experience and a must try. Freshest and tastiest food I've ever had.“

“The BEST brewery and staff in all of the Twin Cities! If you haven't been, you are missing out!“

“After a long day at a work conference, my wife and I were looking for a memorable dinner experience—and Fhima’s delivered in every possible way. From the moment we walked in, we were transported to a different era. The 1920s Art Deco interior is absolutely stunning, with glowing chandeliers, velvet textures, and a bar that could easily be a movie set. It’s classy, cozy, and quietly buzzing with charm. We started with the sampler appetizer—an incredible way to warm up our palates with bold, layered flavors. My wife ordered the Chicken Tagine, which came beautifully presented and full of rich, comforting North African spices. I went with the Wagyu NY Strip, which was grilled to perfection and paired with saffron rice that was as fragrant as it was flavorful. The rosemary chimichurri on the side added a nice kick. For drinks, my wife had a well-balanced Cosmo, while I couldn’t resist their signature Call From Istanbul—a dramatic and smoky twist on the classic Old Fashioned, served with flair (and actual fire). What made the night even better was the attentive, personable service from Eli and Will. Their recommendations were spot on, and they made us feel welcome without ever being overbearing. Whether you’re a local or a visiting foodie, Fhima’s is an absolute must for date night or any occasion that deserves something special. We’ll be talking about this meal for a long time—and already planning our next visit.“
