Great creative delicious sandwich shop in south Minneapolis. Service was ok not much interaction…read more You order on a kiosk. The place has no indoor seating and a few tables on the sidewalk. Seems like a really busy takeout spot. Order: the North Star deluxe. Delicious. Their take on a Reuben without the kraut. All the meats were delicious and distinctive in flavor. The creole mayo added that nice creaminess. The homemade pickles on the side added that little vinegar punch to cut thru the richness of the sandwich. Smoked salmon BLT. Huge potion of perfectly smoked salmon. The smoke and crunch of the bacon was a perfect pairing. This is an amazing creative surf and turf. Overall: This is a must try on your Minnesota food tour.

Start around 15. I got the "half" muffuletta. They only have a cold option on the menu for it. Thing was massive. Good proportion of bread to meat. 80's hockey vibe. I should have asked if they could do the muffuletta hot. Might be five stars if they would.

Being 5 minutes from our destination we decided to give it a try And boy are we glad we did! The sammiches weee absolutely outstanding. They come with a smorgasbord of toppings, so you need to peruse the list to determine if there is anything you DON'T want. We had three turkey sammiches and one ham, and everyone chose to modify their toppings slightly (note/ if you desire tomatoes, those need to be added as they oddly aren't on included in the smorgasbord ‍) I opted for everything - perhaps a bit anxious about how well all the flavours would mesh (mayo, mustard, horseradish, oil and vinegar along with various toppings). But you know something / it worked really really well. We also chose the potato salad as a side and it was also quite tasty. Lighter, northerly mayo's. While the sammiches weee being constructed we perused the offering in the attached grocery. Everything oooed fantastic and if we lived Locally, I would certainly be a regular - with an eye to trying many of their offerings beyond the sandwich counter.

The food never disappoints. I tried the chili for the first time and it was delicious. Bus your own dishes and get your own water. There is parking at the back of the shop which was almost always available. Or street parking is also convenient. Love the neighborly feel of the place and don't forget to get the frozen stews for your next meal at home.

****BEST BANH MI @NICOLLET LOCATION ONLY****…read more This is my only goto Lu's location located on Nicollet Avenue EAT STREET. Lu's has another location located in Northeast, however, you will never see me at any restaurant located in NE. I've been to a few restaurants in that area and nobody in those restaurants and I've have been served really old tasting food, especially at the Thai restaurants in NE. This location in NE is not as fresh as the Nicollet Avenue location. I've been to that place twice there and it's always something's been off about the taste there. Can't really put my finger on it but the only thing that comes to mind is I feel like there's not enough people that come through those doors over there. So I only go to this location off Nicollet and have avoided everything & all places in Northeast like the plague. I feel like that side of town is cursed or something. It has the worst food in all of Minneapolis... NE is extremely questionable area lol. I rather order Chinese food off Lake Street then go to any place in Northeast that's how I feel about Northeast lol.

It is pretty casual; you can ordered at the counter and they assemble the sandwich right in front of you. For hot foods, they called out when your order is ready! Everything is ready quickly, so it would be a good spot if you only have a short break. If you have more time and you'd like to sit down, they have plenty of seating available! They serve banh mi, rice noodle bowls, egg rolls, and spring rolls. They have several vegetarian option. I got the veggie egg rolls and a large tofu banh mi which I split with a friend! The egg rolls had a good crisp. They're filled with carrots and bean thread primarily. They are definitely an oilier egg roll, but no one eats egg rolls to be healthy! They are tasty, and I would get them again! The tofu banh mi was good! The tofu had a good curry flavor, and they were generous with their fillings, which I really appreciated! The bread itself wasn't the crispiest, but it was a humid day so I could see that making it a little less crisp! It was still overall good, and I was really happy with the amount of mayo that went on the sandwich! I think you get good bang for your buck with the sandwiches here, so I would recommend it and go back!

It's one of the places I make sure to bring out of town friends who are visiting Minneapolis! There's nothing better than grabbing a sandwich from here and heading to one of the nearby lakes. That being said - there isn't much for seating in this establishment. I view it as a grab and go spot! Great selection of canned drink and chips as well. They have a full freezer of Sebastian Joes ice cream - I love picking up lunch here for a picnic. I'm interested in learning more about their catering, my fiancé and I would love to have them at our rehearsal dinner!

Oh heaven help me that price tag. Ouch! DX…read more We were at a nearby events with friends who were hungry, so we debated where to eat and landed here cuz a sub sounded good to us all. I really wasn't prepared to spend $15 on a single sandwich though. Listen, everything about this place was fine. Including the sandwich itself (I got the Adult Club cuz I love me some chicken salad, but I should've asked to have the bread toasted... it really wasn't all that sourdoughy in taste either??). I just can't quite get over the amount it cost. Which I guess might be why there aren't any prices listed on the menu signs. Like, my hubbie and I DIDN'T get drinks or chips or a side or dessert. None of that. Just a sandwich for the each of us and it was $30. If we had added stuff, I bet we'd've run the bill up to $50 in no time. For lunch! Gotta be trippin'! I like supporting small local business when I can but I think this place isn't in my budget. Sorry. :( But the employees were nice, the ambiance was cool, the tables were clean, large selection of drinks, very tempting looking desserts, even ice cream, and a community board. If money isn't a concern that factors into your decisions, absolutely patronize this joint. I'll just be jealous.

Wings were amazing, burger was pretty good, other than a lot of the stuff falling out while eating it. Didnt really like the salmon fries, interesting flavor though.

The tots were nicely cooked and not greasy at all.
