Eric B: Food and beer selections are awesome for such a small stadium!
Amanda Nerud: Club level is best. Cushioned seats, waiters run for your food/beer, and a very entertaining game. Better than the "cheap" Twins tickets any day!
Kristen A: Visit the Thelma's ice cream sandwich cart! You will not regret it.

Mallorie Greiner: The Xcel Energy Center is a beautiful and fun arena. Wild games are fun and everyone is super pumped. Stuff is very friendly and helpful.
ESPN: Minnesota is hockey heaven. If you’re not convinced of this fact, check out the jerseys from every single high school in Minnesota hanging on the concourse walls.
NHL: Fanatic Fact: The Wild entered the NHL as an expansion franchise in the 2000-2001 season, making it the first NHL franchise in Minnesota since the North Stars left for Dallas in 1993.

Restaurant · Summit Hill · 7 tips and reviews
Ui: Chicken wings and tiki drinks are fantastic!
Eric Breece: Well, it’s hard to go wrong at the Lex. The rooftop bar is great and the (on tap) Moscow Mules are well worth it.
Nancy McIntire: Three of us had a steak - each differently, but perfectly done. Cocktails-Sconnie Style was our favorite, but all good. A splurge, but we will definitely go again soon.
Heavy Table: 2013: Start your day with Deep-Fried Bread Pudding, evocative of a good french toast. The inside was lovely and custardy; the outside caramelized and crisp. It was everything bread pudding should be. Read more.
Heavy Table: 2012: The Blarney Beans are cornmeal-crusted fried green beans are an admirable balance of hot crispy exterior and assertive, fresh-tasting vegetable interior… plus a creamy ranch-chipotle sauce. Read more.
Heavy Table: 2014: In a sea of mediocre fried things, Pretzel Curds stand out. The aggressively crunchy pretzel crust provides a nice counterpoint to the squeaky fried curds within. Tasty. Read more.

Elvira Canaveral PINCOMBO.COM PINCOMBO.COM: The late night happy hour is fantastic. While not a meatloaf fan the Kobe meatloaf sliders are fantastic.
Mpls.St.Paul Magazine: Try the Crab and Artichoke Dip. The warm, rich crab and artichoke dip is a timeless standby.—Mpls.St.Paul Magazine, February 2011
Colleen McGuire: Happy hour begins at 9:00 p.m. instead of 10:00 p.m. Cheers!

Dave Healy: Great little cafe! They have a limited menu of dinner items as well as incredible cupcakes and cookies. There is a little art gallery in the adjacent space with selections from local artists.
Matthew Thomas: Everything in the bakery case is amazing but the bacon gruyere scones might take the cake. Oh, and they also make delicious cakes.
Jess M: The biscuits and gravy are HIGHLY recommended.
