First time Minneapolis trip

Me and 5 friends are coming to Minneapolis for the first time in just under two weeks. Just looking for some restaurant recommendations of things we cant get back home or really good places to eat.

UPDATE: I am from Davenport, Iowa as I forgot to mention where I was coming from my apologies.

looking for halloumi

Any restaurants in the twin cities/metro area that serve dishes with grilled halloumi? I’ve looked at a couple menus in Minneapolis (Lumi, Holy Land, Caspian Bistro, Olive & Lamb) but haven’t seen it on any menus

Hi,
we’re four guys, and we’ve put together Westminster’s restaurant scene in an app called Vota. The concept is simple: you see two places side by side (for example Famille vs. Kachina Southwestern Grill), you choose the place you’d rather go to, and the ranking updates instantly. The more people vote, the more accurate the list gets over time. There are still a few duplicates here and there, but I’m continuously cleaning up the data.

Here’s the iPhone version, with categories that actually fit Westminster’s food scene:

And here’s the Android version (finally live):

P.S. I’m not from Westminster (I live in Gothenburg). I’m not collecting data, not selling anything, and the app does not use AI-generated content. I’m posting in a few different subreddits because we now support more regions, and I genuinely want honest feedback from people who actually know the area.

Looking for a specific restaurant.

Hello, my fiancé and I are trying to relocate a restaurant that she visited while on a date with someone before she met me. She is only able to remember small details about the restaurant, but I believe that they are unique enough where out together there should be a small list of locations that her and I can look at for confirmation.

  1. They serve Sushi
  2. Single Level Building
  3. Outside Patio
  4. Two sets of doors at main entrance
  5. Green leaves on the sign of the restaurant

I will add details as she remembers them, I just wanna take her back because for some reason not remembering is plaguing her. I figure I can make it a romantic gesture to put her at ease. All help is welcome and appreciated.

Downtown food/bar recs

Coming to town for the Olivia Dean concert next week and am staying two blocks southwest of the target center. Looking for recommendations on where to go for dinner and drinks before the concert. Looking for somewhere with good vibes but not crazy expensive. TIA!

SPEAKEASY recommendation?

I live in Minnesota and I’m interested in exploring speak easy locations around the state. I’ve only ever been to one and I loved it. Preferably looking to start out in the Twin Cities area. Feel free to add a description as to why you were recommending the location(s) eventually I’d like to expand outside of Minnesota so feel free to advocate for any locations outside of MN too!!

Chicken Bacon Ranch from Bricksworth Beer in North Loop right along the Route3/7/14 buses and the Kenilworth Regional Trail

Also right along the Route 94 bus and Blue and Green Line which is unfortunately temporarily closed, and a 10 minute walk to the E Line and Route bus. For people biking, it’s also not too far from the Great River Road, 4th street and Hennepin avenue Bike paths.

SPSkyway detailed transit info, what's nearby, new maps, and more!

Fellow transitmaxxers,

Taking advantage of the wonderful service offered by Metro Transit through NexTrip, I have some exciting updates on the Downtown Saint Paul Map (spskyway.com):

This is a huge dataset that I'm creating, so if you see anything that looks off, please let me know here or at jacob@spskyway.com and I'll get it corrected. Ideas are also welcome!

Thanks for the good will and support!

Looking for Old School Grasshopper Cocktails in the Metro

My wife has been craving a Grasshopper cocktail and I am struggling to find options.

I did find one at Mr Pauls supperclub but that is about it.

Anyone seen a grasshopper on a drink menu recently?

Best Chinese Buffets in the Area??

Only posts I’ve seen related to this are years old so it would be awesome to see if people still have the same opinions or if there are any new gems.
