“WOW!! What a top night for us! First of all the stars were aligned and we had Emma!!! What a gem!!! She took such great care of our very large party!! Every suggestion she made was 100% on the mark and everyone thoroughly enjoyed their appetizers, entrees, and for sure the adult beverages!! THANK YOU EMMA for making tonight so special!!! Brett you have a true employee of the year with Emma!!! Thanks for everything, we will be back!!!“

“Food was very good. My mom got the shrimp lemon and chicken pasta which was FANTASTIC 10/10 on that. My dad got the pot roast stroganoff which was also fantastic another 10/10. I got the prime rib French dip which the sandwich was fantastic, however the au jus was very bland which was disappointing. The tater tots were awesome. Would definitely eat here again!!“

“Great people work and hangout at the SLP American Legion. Good food at great prices.“

“Not only do they have amazing food they have the best staff and customer service team! There was a mix up with my order not being delivered and to say they went above and beyond to make it right is an understatement. All around wonderful!“

“Great service. Great atmosphere. Nice way to start an evening out with friends.“

“In Fargo, service is not great. i had one bite of my meal and told waiter he could take it. He never asked why, if anything was wrong, just grabbed it and walked away. I wasn't expecting anything other than for him to know why my meal was not hardly touched. He never came back to table until he brought us the bill.“

“food was amazing, I reccomend the prime rib dip. drink were perfectly proportionate. bartenders jackson and jake went above and beyond, drink never went empty and my food came before my girl does.“

“Food was nicely presented and tasty. The dessert was fantastic. Didn't have any non-alcoholic options to pair with dinner.
Biggest negative was how loud it was in the dining room. We felt like our servers were yelling to present the dish. It was uncomfortable how loud the room was with only 20 or so people in there. I felt it really made the dining experience rather chaotic. My companions and I were unable to have an awesome experience due to the noise.“

“Awesome kindness! Such amazing people ❤️“

“If you haven’t already been, you need to! Minute chicken, wood fire pizzas, banana cream pie!!! So good 🤤“

“Choice. Tastes were out of this world. Atmosphere was cozy and intimate. Service was expert. Try the Bees Knees and the Lamb Scottadito. Or try the Sangiovese with the Frog Legs. Or try whatever other brilliant options they have on the menu, I'm nowhere near the expert level that this restaurant is at.“

“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!“

“We had a fabulous dinner with another couple. Food was great, table was great, service was very good. Disappointed that no staff told us that 26% charges were automatically included. My fault for not inspecting the itemized bill closer i would have expected staff to share that a 21% gratuity was already included (not to mention an additional “administrative “ fee was also included) before I added an additional 20% gratuity.“

“Food, atmosphere, and drinks were all fantastic. The Owner/Chef Joel has created something special at this gem nestled in a Minneapolis neighborhood. We had a large party for a friends pre-wedding dinner and the staff handled it great. From the apps to the desert, you can’t go wrong with anything you pick off the menu. We were all tasting each others food by the end of the night wanting to try EVERYTHING! Some have stated a smaller menu and prices, but then say the food blew them away…I for one like to pay to keep amazing food and ingredients an option. Can’t wait to bring my wife and other family members in the Twin Cities to do it again.“

“Una experiencia inolvidable! Celebré mi cumpleaños en Fusion Pancake House & Bistro y no puedo estar más agradecida. Claudia la encargada, organizó un espacio para 22 personas con tan solo un día de anticipación, lo cual fue un detalle increíble. Además, tuvieron el gesto de invitarme el desayuno por mi cumpleaños. Desde el servicio hasta la atención al detalle, todo fue impecable. Se nota el compromiso del restaurante por hacer que sus clientes se sientan especiales. Sin duda, regresaré pronto. Gracias por todo!😊💕“

“Restaurant is amazing! Steady Eddie every time. Creative, well crafted, beautifully curated pre fixe tastings. Highly recommend!“

“Great service staff, incredible food, great mission. Highly recommend!!“

“We held our company Christmas Party at their beautiful restaurant and had such a great time! The staff were so attentive and wonderful to interact with throughout the whole evening! We ordered an array of food and our employees couldn’t stop talking about how fantastic the prime rib and KFC (Korean fried cauliflower) were! The talk around the shop about this event and the delicious food went on for days! We all had such a great experience from start to finish. They made it so easy to plan, set up, host and tear down. We would highly recommend anyone looking to host a party to come here! Now if you are just looking for a bite to eat for a date night or family night out, they also have you covered. No matter what plans you have this is the spot to be! A huge thanks to Lake and Irving for all they did for us and a massive thank you to Chris the chef! That meal was better than we could have ever expected!“

“Samantha was in a word... exceptional. She made the entire time we had here special. She was attentive to every customer, timely with service, and all done with a smile. She is the type of advocate and ambassador every business owner would aspire to have defining their client's experience.“

“The only reason service isn't 5 stars is because the kitchen ran out of numerous items for the New Year's Eve prix fixe menu (including take home boxes). Our waitress was excellent and offered us other options and a discount to make up for it. The remaining food was still excellent and the overall experience was great!“

“They were a hit at our event! 100% Recommend“

“Living nearby, I know they’re a busy place, so a cold, snowy Sunday was the perfect day to try their brunch. The food, and the minimal crowd, were delightful! I had the classic breakfast, and the sausages were the clear standout, absolutely delicious. And I can’t forget the coffee! I’ll definitely be back.“

“-Vinai MN- My friend and I wanted to try Chef Yia's restaurant due to being homesick and wanting hmong food. We were met with such great service and sat where we could see the work area. Chef Yia was so kind and started us off with a complimentary appetizer, rice Curry balls. We ordered and the food came so fast. As soon as I took a bite, my eyes started to get teary because it tasted like food from home. I started fanning myself to not cry which Chef Yia saw and asked if the food was too spicy. We then started to explain that we were not from MN and were feeling a bit homesick and how the food reminded us of home. Chef Yia then said, here let's do this. He returned with a pot of beef soup that consisted of mushrooms, bamboo shoots, beef and green onion and white rice and shared that this dish was one of those dishes that we would eat at gathering and events. We we so shocked and so at loss with his kindness and compassion. We both took a bite and immediately lighted up. It tasted like my mom's cooking 💓. As we were nearing the end of our meal, Chef Yia told us not to stuff ourselves too full and surprised us with a complimentary dessert which further awed us. We were so lost at words for Chef Yia's kindness, generosity and comfort. We chose the Lava Cake and it was soooo good! I normally don't like sweets but we devoured this 😋. 1000/10 would recommend.“

“Best food in Mpls! Great staff/service. Chef is AMAZING!“

“Even tho, there are interesting things on the menu, I got the cheeseburger. OMG, best ever!
And the truffle fries - tasted of truffle without being way too greasy. We had a 2nd order for the table.
It's a special, soulful place, our group were all very happy“

“Amazing food. We shared 4 plates. Each one better than we could have wished for. Possibly the best Paloma I’ve ever had. The manager Natalie took tremendous care of us. Fabulous experience.“

“Highly recommend, incredible fine dining experience. Especially when paired with wine selections. We go at least twice a year and have never been disappointed.“

“Hey, i think this place is great so im biased but i had the best service ever ever ever from Alex today.
Me and my son came in for lunch; drinks were great food was good (my bad i mis-ordered a roll)
but despite this our server was extremely on point the entire time -yea good food is getting more expensive - yea good service is getting more rare.

check this place out for sure!! if you are in town and don’t mind the mall’s hospitality fee (tourism fee anywhere else)

this gets 15 stars from me again always glad to stop here. welcome to contact if anyone DMs me.“

“This our first time in MN for appointments at Mayo Clinic. The staff were so welcoming and the food was delicious. 😋“

“Great place for small get togethers but not not weddings unless it’s very small“

“Borough is fantastic. Great food and service and the atmosphere is wonderful.“

“This is hands down one of the best restaurants in Minnesota, all three locations that we regularly visit always have great service friendly staff and the food is excellent to me there are drinks are a little expensive but besides that this is one of our go to is for special occasions as well as date nights.“

“Great atmosphere! So many people having a great time. Ordered the Dragon's Milk Braised Beef Ribs with snap peas and mash. So good! So tender and flavorful! Gravy was chef's kiss!“

“Always enjoy our Red Cow experiences. Food is consistently good and unique. My wife had her fave of turkey burger with sweet fries and I opted for the Ahi Tuna salad. Both delicious and my salad thankfully tasted very close to a California sushi role.“

“This is a excellent place to eat and drink!“

“Excellent food! Great wine!♥️“

“My waiter Addison was great and very attentive. However, the short rib sandwich was over cooked and over priced. On line there were a couple of items that I didn't see on the actual menu while at the restaurant. We were given the lunch menu at the front door, this really confused me, later Addison eventually figured it out. The rest of the experience was nice. The comedy acts were funny, except for the second to last guy, that totally bombed, as part of his act was to call all women bitches. He was poorly prepared, and otherwise was not funny at all, and should not be invited back.“

“Excellent service! Abbi W was our server and she made the dinner so much better! Good food doesn’t matter without good service. We will definitely be back and ask for Abbi!“

“Great experience, such friendly, quick service, food was delicious, steak & mimosas for breakfast were outstanding!“

“The renovated space feels like a resort-style retreat—beautiful, calm, and incredibly relaxing. We absolutely loved the atmosphere. We were also blessed with an amazing server, Sophie—attentive, quick, and always greeting us with a genuine smile. After reading some mixed reviews, I feel especially grateful we had such a great experience, particularly since we hadn't been back in over a year. The food was excellent. I had the Thai steak, and my wife ordered the chicken rice bowl—both were delicious and well-prepared. They also have a full bar with a solid wine selection and plenty of great non-alcoholic options. Overall, a wonderful experience, and we'll definitely be back!“

“My favorite restaurant! The Oscar walleye is to die for!“

“In Fargo, service is not great. i had one bite of my meal and told waiter he could take it. He never asked why, if anything was wrong, just grabbed it and walked away.

“Visiting Pittsburgh and this was a great stop with a friendly staff (Kudos Tyrone) and great drinks! Fun time with the putt putt (beat my husband). If in Pittsburgh area this is a must stop!“

“Food was amazing, prompt service, and fun atmosphere. We will definitely be back!“

“We had a blast, we bought a package combo including a cocktail and 27 holes on the 3 courses they have. The facilities was decorated for Xmas which was awesome.
There are 3 separate bars, so we didn't have to wait around for a drink, the putt courses were awesome and the touch screen score keeping was convenient.
We will definitely be back!!“

“Amazing food, good service, lovely patio“

“This place is legit top restaurants in msp, why??? Because they have talent and imagination. Any one can buy great ingredients and high end products, but can you make sidewalk grass , spruce pine , lingcod , wildrice and strawberry taste good ?(Not a real dish just something off top of my head) That's talented and worth talking about , the folks here have talent. And if your looking for adventure of the palette look no further.“

“Great people who aren’t afraid to stand on the right side of history. Thank you for doing your part!“

“Loved this place. Great food and service“
