Allison Niksich: Such good brunch! The eggs Benedict is delicious and so are the rosemary potatoes!!! I will be back

Chuck Olsen: Our favorite neighborhood brunch place. Lots of “home cookin’” and unique specials, friendly staff, and totally normal portion sizes. :-)
City Pages: Voted Best Neighborhood Cafe (MPLS) by City Pages in 2012! Hazel's retains the feeling of a small-town diner with enough contemporary touches to make it a perfect fit for a cozy urban neighborhood.
Charles Edge: Closest thing to authentic Swedish meatballs this side of the Atlantic. But the real jewel is the salmon (when they have it)!

Katie Butler: Oh my goodness. Breakfast, lunch, dinner... All amazing here. The specials are awesome!
Steph Luv: Turkey sausage is on the menu!
Darius Davis: The Jordan. Lots of food for $10. If you are hungry, start here!
Joe Funk: Get the Chipotle Cheese Steak, great twist on an old favorite
Tim Schaaf: How did the hipster burn the roof of his mouth? He ate the MAC N Cheese before it was cool.
City Pages: Voted top ten chicken wings! The house wings are a rosy molasses color, dipped in sticky, sweet honey soy glaze with a Sriracha-spiked mayonnaise for dipping.
Scott Swartz: If you want a sandwich, you can't go wrong with a burger -one of the best downtown- or the Cajun chicken sandwich.
City Pages: Voted top ten chicken wings! Each bit of the wing brings a different spice flavor. Not entirely savory, not exactly sweet, it's an entirely unidentifiable, familiar flavor.
Korey Erb: Scotch and the Monte Carlo Wings. Make it happen!
Megan Hollenkamp: excellent lunch menu - from burgers to salmon quinoa salad. our bartender also made a killer pineapple curry concoction.
Eater: Run by brothers Chris and Andrew Ikeda, this new Uptown spot features American food with Asian influences. Think: lobster tostadas and misoyaki salmon. Plus, brunch.
John Blue: Dude. Best water ever. It's like water but most more watery.
