Kyle Louwagie: Great quality food and some awesome flavors everywhere on the menu. Menu is short and manageable, I recommend the crispy shrimp with rice, the salmon fat rolls, and of course the potstickers!
Dennis Lindgren: Crispy shrimp and pot stickers. Small delightful plates.
David Deuel: Spicy Tuna crispy rice was fantastic 🤤
Raj Shroff: About the bar....try the Grain Belt lager...surprisingly good...the pizza and chips make great appetizers. Free wi-fi. Great place to relax between meetings...
Chris Duhaime: If you are a guest of this hotel and you drove, the hotel will let you park in their ramp for $6. Best part, you may leave and return as much as you need!
Hotel Tonight: Part of the city's climate-controlled Skyway system, explore the city center without setting foot outside.

Heavy Table: Get the House Soup: it's loaded with thick slices of sweet, tender pork, rich duck, and deliciously dense shrimp wontons that pop with flavor. Noodles and a deep shellfish/pork broth finish the dish. Read more.
METRO magazine: We recommend the pork bun. Yeast dough filled with pulled pork then brushed with sticky-sweet honey glaze, this is our kind of pork candy. Read more.
Mon Phadungath: bbq pork bun, ham n egg bun, curry-beef bun, bbq combo over rice, and the best shrimp wonton soup in town.

Sharifa Simon: Great happy hour! Nice atmosphere and food doesn't take long. Love the salmon wontons, mussels good, and can't go wrong w/ their spicy tuna. Bartenders always pleasant! Paid parking lot is convenient.

Fondue Restaurant · Downtown West · 40 tips and reviews
Jeremy Lebens: A little pricey, but totally worth it for something different. A unique experience I'd suggest if you're looking to have a little fun. Original dessert fondue is the best.
Dan Hennen: spendy, but worth it....plan on a couple of hours...
Melissa Hansen: Do not bring stingy friends. Park far away to be ready to indulge and try 2 cheeses.
Nina O.: Sunday's Neighborhood Night is a fabulous, low-key way to end the weekend. Cheap local brews and food, plus $2 bowling.
Food Network: Guy Fieri found great food at the most unexpected place, a bowling ally where they're serving up bison hash. Read more.
David Y: Love the grilled cheese with add-ons.
