Restaurants in St. Cloud

“Friendly staff, amazing seafood. The house seasoning was the bomb. Medium heat/spice is about equivalent to jalapeños in our opinion. Can't wait to go again.”

“Stopped at Pantown on our way home to WI. So glad we did. The place is lovely, with a beautiful outdoor patio with couches, picnic tables, and fire pits. The indoor space is large, with 2 floors and lots of tables and a large bar. The staff were welcoming and kind, offering tastes and suggestions. We LOVED the Inspiration Hazy IPA and I was truly giddy over the Fizzy Lifting Drink - Cream Soda. Crossing state lines with some of these!! Hungry? There are a variety of snacks to choose from and some yummy pizzas as well. We enjoyed the Dill Pickle Pizza. I highly recommend this spot and know we’ll return again soon. Pantown is a Harvest Host. We spent a quiet and comfortable night in the parking lot. Cool breeze and not a sound to be heard. Thanks Pantown!!!”

“Highly recommend the Guinness fish and chips!”

“5 Stars. Awesome. Wonderful. Perfect.”

“I was in a rush to a 1:30pm meeting. I called ahead they had my burger ready within 10min of me calling. The host greeted me right away and had my smash burger ready to go. I was able to leave at 1:10pm to make it to my meeting! Thank you everyone at Rjs! I’ll be back will bring clients here for lunch. -Tyler @ Data Up ”

“Awesome Staff & Great Food”

“Delicious and a great variety”

“My wife and I selected this venue for our rehearsal/grooms dinner. We were blown away in ever aspect from affordability, service, food, setting, you name it. It was perfect for us, just what we envisioned, and all of our guests had a tremendous time. I highly recommend Coyote Moon for any services you may need.”

“The staff is always amazing!”

“Food was fantastic. Our server Brian was awesome. He went above and beyond for us. I would definitely come back .”

“I went to Job Sims house for a service call for his air conditioner not working. Jon immediately offered me breakfast as he is a cook at granite city. I politely declined and continued working. After I finished fixing his air conditioner Jon comes out with a plate of food saying it wasn’t in his nature to not give out food. I went back to the shop and ate the best homemade burrito I have ever had. Jon was not only one of the nicest people I have met but also one of the best cooks. You will not be disappointed going to granite city and receiving a meal made by Jon!”

“First tried Gilbertos in Sioux Falls and has been my favorite place to eat ever since. Great prices, delicious food, huge menu, good portions, fast friendly service. It's embarrassing how excited I got after moving to St. Cloud and finding out there was other Gilbertos.”

“I cannot give enough praise to this business for the fabulous food and service given for my daughter’s wedding on May 8! Hailey is a master organizer, from our sample dining experience to the actual wedding meal, everything was handled promptly and professionally! Serving 140 guests a hot and delicious meal is a challenge in itself, but we had many guests saying that this was the best food they have ever had at a wedding! Recommendations all the way!!....... Darcy Forkrud”

“Great pizza and really nice and helpful staff!!! Crystal was amazing for our birthday party. We will be back for a party again! Thanks to all for all the hard work!”

“I am a frequent business traveler and stay in hotels between two and four nights a week. This Quality Inn is one of the nicest I stay in. Rooms are clean and quiet, staff is courteous and friendly and their pricing is usually spot on. Normally, if they're not full, they'll upgrade me as a Choice Hotels Diamond Member. All positives here and a 5 star experience.”

“Lily’s catered our children’s Grad Party a few weeks ago and we are so please! They were very helpful with the whole process! Our food trays were never empty despite how busy it was. I would highly recommend them for any large gathering!”

“Pretty basic. No ambience or character. Dive bar at the most”

“we ate there on Tuesday. my first time there. it was very good. and good service. thanks!”

“We had a great experience yesterday on the patio. We had a party of 5 and all food was hot and excellent, and service was superb. Our server was Bethany. She was friendly and attentive. The place was very busy but that did not affect service. We will definitely return and recommend to friends.”

“Lily’s catered our children’s Grad Party a few weeks ago and we are so please! They were very helpful with the whole process! Our food trays were never empty despite how busy it was. I would highly recommend them for any large gathering!”

“This Famous Dave's has been a favorite of mine for a very long time. Its very sad to see this location close today. The service and food has always been the best. St.cloud,Mn. Doesn't seem to be able. keep great restaurants for some reason.”

“The Stuffed Flounder was good, though it's a little too buttery and over-seasoned. Just letting more natural flavors come through would make it even better. Good service, and quiet inside.
The booths in the bar was where we were seated, and they are a bit cramped for 4 good-sized adults

Vegetarian options: There are not many pure vegetarian options here, and the menu isn't light-eating to begin with. Still, you know that going in, and you can still find meat free sides”

“Love this shake shop! Very close to campus and fast and friendly service! Would recommend for anyone in the downtown area! Travis makes you feel welcome every time you walk in the door! Great prices too!”

“I love Crumbl. The different flavors each week is so fun! My kids love it when I bring it home. My only beef is that they stopped serving pink sugar every week. I’ve never gotten the chocolate chip because BORING.”

“We absolutely loved the food and workers! They worked so hard to make sure our food was correct as we have a diet restriction! Awesome people and awesome place! Thank you for all you all do! We appreciate it more than you will ever know!!!”

“The best coffee in town. Smooth never bitter. Their roasted whole beans are also the very best I have ever tasted. Also so smooth and delicious”

“I'm so happy I found this place! Really need to bring my friends and family here for a tasty treat. I love the nice people,, tantalitizing and very comfortable atmosphere, a place you will not forget.”

“I was very impressed by everything today! service, price, portions, all awesome! We will definitely go back!”

“First time there today with my husband and some friends. Great place to get together with some friends for some coffee and eats.”

“Visited Brigitte's today, and everything blew me away. We were greeted by the friendliest hostess, and quickly had our drink order taken. Waitress was over to our table very quickly and took our order so efficiently. Our food came out so fast, especially considering it was a busy Sunday morning (I bet less than 10 minutes). Food was cooked to perfection! Highly recommend this hidden gem!”

“Amazing food ! Amazing crew !”

“We love everything, especially their palmiers! Their service is fantastic. We just tried their banana muffins today, and they are delicious.”

“My wife and l ate there today. It was our first time however it definitely won’t be the last. I cannot say enough good things about this place. The food was amazing, the help was extremely helpful. The cleanliness of the place was really good. I gave them 5 stars for everything. We are in our late seventies and don’t impress easily.”

“Spent many nights partying with friends and co-workers. Many lunches and dinners and happy hours. Anytime someone suggests going out for a burger, my first thought is always Shooters.”

“Good food! I wish the lunch buffet would come back!! I really miss that!”

“I have been going to Bo Diddleys for over 30 years and Bo Diddleys subs are the best except for the fact that they switched to Miracle Whip from the traditional Mayo. I remember them trying this switch years ago and they did end up going back to Mayo. At least give us a choice between Miracle Whip and Mayo. Remainder of menu is great.”

“Small town place you have to stop at. I wish I had a place like this where I come from. Allowing the community and kids to work and get useful knowledge is great! Miss you already, Mr. Twisty.”

“Great food! Will definitely go back again! Service was excellent!”

“Delicious food, friendly staff”

“Good vibe….fun people….music was pleasing…beer was nice and cold”

“great noon specials, and awesome service from Jen.”

This is my favorite restaurant in St. Cloud, as I have created so many memories here with family and friends and colleagues. I love the food, especially the lamb gyro! Def recommend for a small date night.”

“We love Lincoln! Have for years! Great food, beer selection and great waitstaff. Fun atmosphere!!”

“Wasn't a fan of the gyro meat being in sausage type chunks, but it was really good! I prefer the regular way so a few pieces are crispy. Definitely worth the $7.99 price!”

“Great food, entertainment and fun atmosphere!!”

“I recently had the pleasure of hiring Gary Chimney Sweep for both dryer vent cleaning and chimney sweep services, and I couldn't be more impressed. Their team arrived promptly and conducted a thorough inspection before getting to work. The dryer vent cleaning was meticulous, ensuring optimal safety and efficiency for my appliances. As for the chimney sweep and cleaning, they left no crevice untouched, leaving my chimney spotless and ready for use. The technicians were courteous, professional, and knowledgeable, answering all my questions with patience and expertise. I highly recommend them for anyone in need of top-notch dryer vent cleaning and chimney sweep services. A job well done!”

“I've began to love scooters more than Caribou. They seem to have better offers/coupons and their loyalty rewards seems to be better than Caribou as well. Just wish it was a little closer to where I live. Never had issues with them since they have been open!

Parking: It's a drive thru location only so you shouldn't need to park but they do have a small parking lot if you need to hop out of the car for something fast”

“By far this is the best somali restaurant and I loved their goat meat with rice. It’s delicious and I will definitely come back again. I recommend everyone to go try it.”

“We went to Applebees for a family dinner night out. My fiancé and I did the 2 for $32, and he ordered the Four Cheese Mac & Cheese with Honey Pepper Chicken Tenders and I got the Bourbon Street Chicken & Shrimp. Our daughter got the kids chicken tenders with French fries and ranch dressing.

My fiancés pasta was over cooked and a little bit mushy but the sauce was good and the tenders were great. My chicken and shrimp was delicious and so were the potatoes. Our daughter always enjoys the chicken tenders and fries.

We are regulars to Applebees, and it’s not fine dining but it always hits the spot. We will be back!”

“I love going to Five Guys in St. Cloud on 2nd Street South. Their burgers are by far the best! JC and Arthur were working tonight and they made sure my burger was perfect! The store is always so clean and you always receive excellent customer service! Thanks Five Guys! You never disappoint!!”

“Great place. Food is awesome”

“Best sushi in central Minnesota”

“First time in to Botor Village Cafe & Bakery. We stopped in for lunch and had Sambusas as appetizers. They were served with ranch and a spicier red sauce (not too spicy). I combined the two and the overall flavor was nothing short of delicious. We then had chicken and rice and lamb and rice. The rice was fabulous (not plain white rice), the lamb was fall off the bone tender, the chicken was tender and in a light sauce with garlic, onions and peppers. Each came with a small salad and a banana (not sure if there's a reason for the banana or if they had extras from breakfast). Large portions and very tasty. The owner is kind and happy to answer questions. It could use a little atmospheric help to draw people in more, but the food is great. Give it a try!”

“I love Arby’s but I was so disappointed in the chicken sandwich I ordered the other day. When your slogan is “we got the meat” then that’s what I expected. McDonald’s dollar chicken sandwich had more meat then this sandwich. If you run out of a product explain that to a customer so they are informed. Don’t try to hide it by putting 2 chicken nuggets on a bun and call it a sandwich I would have easily ordered something different if they said we are out of chicken patties. I paid 9 dollars for 2 chicken nuggets on a bun talk about a rip off”

“An unexpected great dinner of goat and rice & beef and rice for the wife. Sambusas were delicious and washed down with a cup of scented tea. Generous sized portions. Great value and friendly staff and locals dinning there”

“The crew working was excellent! Greeted, took orders, and were very quick in preparing sandwiches for both dine in and take out orders. Lots of doordash orders coming in. My son and I love their cheesecakes, they have such a great variety even if you have a picky eater.”

“Best deep dish pizza I've had. Service was great. They do have a few high top tables, but they don't serve here. You order everything to go and sit there or leave. Again the pizza and cheese bread are absolutely amazing.”

“Delicious food and great staff! Locally sourced when possible, including meats, produce, beer and cider, creative and familiar menu items, spacious atmosphere, and perfect over-easy eggs!”

“I live an hour away and will make the journey to St. Cloud JUST for Gary's. I love their pizza and cheesebread so much! Only way it could get better is if they would open a store in Brainerd...please?”

“awesome staff great food”

“We always run into the nicest people who work there. They give great recommendations and are just really nice. My son loves going to see them and always leaves with a smile.”

“guys wrking here are supper nice

“The shakes and teas were amazing!! I had the whatcha ma giggy and tasted like a snicker candy bar! It is a great place! And great music too! Friendly staff!”

“They have the best subs I’ve had! Friendly staff!”

“Service was fast. Gluten free options. Our goto place when we don't feel like making our own.

Dietary restrictions: Gluten-free options are quite good.”

“African Yen is an absolute delight! The flavors here are a journey for your taste buds. From their rich stews to their flavorful grilled meats, every dish is a masterpiece. The staff is welcoming and attentive, making the dining experience even better. If you're looking for authentic African cuisine, look no further. Five stars for African Yen – a culinary adventure you won't want to miss!”

“fun place to go ..ppl are great service is the best”

“4 stars only because each of the 3 times I've gone drive thru my order was wrong, and 2 of the times it was over a 10 minute wait. However, the food was great EVERYTIME!
Love the sauce.”

“First time there it was like the best place I’ve been in the St. Cloud area”

“friendly service and yummy food. the fellow at the cash register was kind and patient while my two children tried to make up their mind on what ice cream they wanted.”

“Best Naan Bread! Soft! Flavorful! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ If you appreciate good Naan bread don’t pass this small gem up! Looking forward to good things coming in the future!”

“Whoever took our order around 545 yesterday wasn't the stereotypical fast food worker. They acted like they wanted to be there, made eye contact and had an upbeat attitude. Order was brought to our table promptly. She didn't have a name tag on, otherwise I'd drop that here”

“Aye dios mio!!! Que delicioso!!!
I’ve lived down the street for 7 years and I finally got tried the food. The chicken rice was delicious! Full of flavor and low on grease. The chicken and lamb was excellent. I had beef samosas with the green sauce too. Just perfect. I can’t wait to eat here again.”

“Went for the first time since they (re)opened over a year ago and I used to come in the 80's. The flavors were identical, I could have cried, So Good. Will definitely be back..!! 5 Stars”

“thanks to the awesome service and delivery. food was still hot and great.”

“new store and nice employees”

“Tanya (Store Manager) and the rest of the staff are always very pleasant and the food hits the spot ?
This location excepts coupons which is also an added plus ;)”

“Very good service clean and fast”

“I'd just like to say, season is a sweetheart. We didn't get off on the right foot my first time here. It was because she was so busy at being a great bartender. I came into the bar very emotional and needed a drink. So lucky she was there.”

“Friendly greeting , I’ll be with you in a moment as barista was handling drive thru and walk-in . We appreciated that. As lately going into restaurants we just stand there sometimes to the point almost walking out. This. Acknowledgement made me very happy thank you to that barista.”

“The best Mexican food, hands down! Great service, too. We always hit you up whenever we are in St. Cloud. We truly miss the Mankato location, as nothing else can compare!”

“Menu variety and prices Coupons don’t hurt either!!!”

“My man John made for the best pizza-ordering experience I’ve ever had! I expected I was ordering late night pizza, I didn’t expect to make a friend a long the way. John, you are customer service incarnate. You put pizza apps to shame! Bless ?”

“Excellent service best in 3 years at this location thanks the Barista Josh had great energy,positive vibe and my drink was made correctly!!! He made conversation truly impressed with his service. I was ready to give up on Starbucks in town here all 4 locations but Josh has now made me feel like giving it another chance.”

“It would be great to know of any up-charges before finding out about them on the receipt. My daughter was asked if she wanted mini marshmallows on her and her brothers cookies n' cream kids drink. Then I find out it would be over a dollar for them each. We came to do homework and have a treat after second week back to school.

Parking: Parking lot was re-done recently.

Kid-friendliness: I always feel like some coffee places have the "Library Quiet" type of vibe, but this Caribou Coffee location is Not that, but the kids and I still used the conference room while it was not being used.”

“If you're in downtown St. Cloud, you simply must visit The Pickled Loon, and when you do, make sure to say hi to Mike, one of the amazing owners. Mike exemplifies what it means to be a dedicated small business owner. His hard work and commitment are evident in every aspect of the establishment.

What sets Mike apart is his willingness to roll up his sleeves and work alongside his staff, even taking on the role of bartender. His exceptional interpersonal communication skills shine through as he takes the time to sit down with customers, engaging in meaningful conversations and making everyone feel welcome. This personal touch adds a unique charm to the experience and makes patrons feel like they're part of the family.

Mike's dedication to his craft and his genuine care for his customers are truly commendable. As a small business owner, he understands that success comes from doing all the duties and creating an inviting atmosphere where everyone feels valued.

“There's really nothing more to say about Erbert and Gerbert's besides it's really great fresh sandwiches! I love that you can customize all the sandwiches as well and the price point is very reasonable.

Kid-friendliness: Very kid friendly the entire restaurant is based upon a children's book”

“Just as I'd anticipated for an Ice Cream place the style, smiling faces, atmosphere, and of course the ice cream was the cherry to the top of the whipped cream. Loved it.”

“I placed an order 6/19 at 10:30am for delivery. Delivery was fast and driver was friendly. I unwarned my wrap and saw there was no meat. I called and they were so kind and ran another over to me right away. Driver was super kind and apologetic! The customer service today was GREAT! The staff that was there today deserve to be recognized!”

“The staff there were super pleasant and helpful, even when we came right as they were closing. They looked like they enjoy their job. Fun conversation while we were checking out. ”
