Zack Zamora: Come hungry! Green chorizo and the beef long rib made up one of the best meals I've ever had. Take your leftovers in case you run into a hungry person downtown.
Jon V: For dinner, the boar sausage is a must. For desert, the s'mores paired with the Chocolate Yeti beer is perfect.
City Pages: Try the Egg Sandwich - this simple sandwich (3 eggs, cheese & chorizo on homemade french bread) is sure to delight your taste buds! Mmmmm! Read more.
Devin Nee: This place is awesome sauce! I love the Berry crepes, carrot cake, and cinnamon rolls. Also custom order your own whole pie, you won't regret it.

Heavy Table: Try the unlikely contender, Khinkali -- we really enjoyed this Mexican spin on a Central Asian staple. These deep-fried pouches of well-spiced chorizo came floating on a thick tide of nutty sauce. Read more.
Nina Brown: You must try the eggplant fries!!! I don't even like eggplants but this changed my mind!
Eater: Featuring the same beloved caramelos (basically tacos) and bocadillos (sandwiches), but with a pumped up small plate, entree, and cocktail selection. The early word is strong on this one.

Barry Kennedy: Check out La Loma tamales! The Huevos con chorizo is spicy, made fresh, cheap, and amazing!
Lynne Sturtevant: Wonderful place! Delicious ethnic food of all kinds and quirky handmade gifts in an old Sears distribution center. Take the time to stop, enjoy and support the friendly small businesses.
Sarah Burt: Tasty Tip: Create a meal in your head, buy the produce at The Produce Exchange & then ask the cheese lady at Grassroots Gourmet to recommend the perfect cheese. She's amazing.
Mike Lundeen: Great beer of course, but their Mussels are to die for! Their Amarillo broth with chorizo and good quality mussels set this one as one of my all time faves!
Leah Sinsheimer: Great new space. Get your beer and head upstairs to the new event space. No seating, but spacious.
MN Beer Activists: Split the charcuterie with friends & get some renowned beer fresh from the source.
