The host with the most, Mark!
Germaine B.

A better alternative to Panera... simply bc, you get a free chocolate covered strawberry!! yum! Mark the manager and his crew run a tight ship. I met him, and immediately - from his energy alone - I knew this guy knows how to take care of his team. Which makes ppl work better, and make better food! My chicken enchilada soup was yummy: I added sour cream. Healthy portion of salad. Good fountain drinks, and the "take two" type combo is a great deal. Quick lunch in the area, fast casual concept, and I'm very happy I found this spot!

My large salad in the foreground in comparison to the side/small salad in the back.  They were actually about the same size.

We've been dining at Cafe Zupas for years. Delicious food in a clean environment! We've noticed lately though the potion sizes have shrunk. Last night I ordered a large Mango berry salad and was very disappointed. Same amount of dressing but less greens so the greens were saturated from the dressing. There was also very little fruit compared to previously. I left there with a very negative experience as a result.

a salad and a cup of sauce

Used to love this place but it's been a while and I won't be back. Cobb salad, ordered no meat. But no egg? No avocado? No cheese? Half full cup of soup. Roll but no butter. No strawberry? "All" this for $13.50!

Meal

Healthier fast food option. Reminds me of Crisp & Green. They have fresh produce that you can see when your ordering. I got the half salad and half soup option. Chickpea soup was pretty good and the "Nuts about berries" salad was also good, the dressing was light and flavorful. Not a fan of the bread that comes with the meal, but you do get a chocolate strawberry with your meal.

I ordered from here more than once and typically I have received the correct order. However the customer service seriously lacks and there is no professionalism . "Irene" advised she personally hand made my food but items were left off the order I requested. And she insisted that there was nothing she could do, not refund or even replace my order. It's truly not the customer focused brand I thought this restaurant was pushing for. I'll let my team know to discontinue doing business with this location.

the outside of the establishment

this place is so good. i don't know why the reviews are relatively low. the grilled cheese is SO GOOD. i also recommend the crispy chicken sandwich and then ask for a side of ranch. their ranch is delicious. i love their soup too. you have to get the chris which is half tomato basil and half cauliflower cheese. you also get a chocolate covered strawberry with your meal which is the cherry on top.

Not cool, Zupas! I ordered a half size of the seasonal soup to go, which is a super tasty chicken coconut with great flavor an a bunch of vegetables. If I were writing this review on the soup alone, it wouldat least 4 stars. But when I got home to eat my soup this is what greeted me. I didn't realize when I said "half" that meant even the half size container would be only half full. Update: I received the canned response with some absolute garbage about how this was done on purpose, for portion control and to protect my soup. FYI, it's soup, not a bag of chips.

I'm here now, employees out number customers. Yet they still let my soup get cold before checking me out. They seem to work in slow motion.

Stopped at the Firehouse Subs in MSP Airport during a layover because, hey, who doesn't want a hot…read moresandwich before their next flight? Unfortunately, this Firehouse felt more like a fire drill -- lots of motion, not much coordination. The staff looked like and acted like they didn't want to be there and then someone had just yelled "everybody make sandwiches!" and then left the room. Service was slower than boarding Group 9, and by the time my sub arrived, I was halfway through my emotional support chips. As for the sandwich -- let's just say it didn't quite live up to the usual Firehouse standard. More like Smoke Detector Subs -- something was missing, and it definitely wasn't flavor from being too fresh. Two stars because I did eventually get food, and it was edible. But next time I might just grab a granola bar and call it a win. If you're hungry and have time to burn, give it a shot. If you're in a hurry... you might want to bring your own siren.

Misleading... on two parts…read more 1)Also, they charge a mandatory (non-tip) service charge but don't tell you. Why not just include that into the cost? 2) The menu is misleading. They actually use the smaller bottles of juice than the small bottles. Until now I didn't even know... to be fair, it does appear all the other vendors have similarly small versions and drinks are more expensive here than other airports. Also made my order after another couple. It should be first-in-first-out at the airport. I wouldn't mind the delay normally but at an airport, time -can- be precious.

Trying to avoid a chain restaurant, and craving a deli experience, this was such a wonderful visit…read morein Saint Paul. Thanks to the staff at Patina for the recommendation! Old school all the way. There's a restaurant in the back, and a full-scale deli counter in the front. It is such a good stop. They have their own private parking lot too. Wood paneling, and a bunch of local reviews all over the walls. Clean, normal sound. Simple, with excellent customer service, and a huge menu that will have something that you like. Packed the midweek afternoon we visited, and we did not wait for a table. Loved my bowl of Matzo Soup, superb broth and the Matzo was delicious. Enjoyed my BLT on whole wheat and the homemade potato salad was amazing! Had a cherry cobbler for dessert that was incredible. Restaurant has been open for over 70 years, and I met the owner/manager, Cecil, afterward, and he just oozes customer service being a priority. It's a must-visit place.

The line for baked goods was also busy but moved quick and wow - I regret not getting any of the baked goods. They looked phenomenal. I had the Leonard Da Vinci which was outstanding. The gardiniera was the perfect level of spice and the sandwich was jam packed with salami and turkey. The Cole slaw was also delicious. The vibe inside is very Eastern European deli authentic which is so fun. They had tons of to go items for sale as well and a huge grab and go beverage selection. The seating area was spacious and packed on a warm spring day.

I read about Clancey's and we decided to give it a try for lunch. There are two parts to…read moreClancey's. On one side is a meat market with a variety of cuts of steaks, lamb, and other meats, which all looked fresh and quite nice. They also have a variety of items such as canned goods, pasta, eggs, etc. on the shelves opposite the meat counter. The entire place is quite sunny, pleasant, and cozy. On the other side is the eat-in, take-out deli sandwiches, that are made to order. The quality of the ingredients is excellent. The bread is freshly made (crispy baguette type) and you have a choice of Roast Beef, Roast Turkey, Tuna Salad, Smoked Ham, or Corned Beef. All sandwiches are $16.50 each (including tax) and come with a choice of mayonnaise, spicy stone ground mustard, red leaf lettuce, thin sliced red onion, salt, pepper, oil, vinegar, raw grated horseradish, pickled jalapeno, and roasted bell pepper. The default includes all toppings so if you don't want everything, be sure to specify what you do NOT want. Surprisingly, they do not carry any diet soda, nor do they stock any national brands (only local pop). There is a large menu on the wall, and you order at the counter and pick up the order (no table service). The food was attractively presented, and very, very good. My only gripe (besides the lack of diet pop) is that it's on the expensive side for lunch. Two sandwiches, a couple of bags of chips, and a couple of cans of pop will easily top $40, although I'd say the quality is top-notch.

Clancy's has great sandwiches and supports the community with big hearts and concern. At lunch,…read morethere can be a mad rush for their classic roast beef sandwich, but the staff handles the crowd with efficiency and detail. I was on the street in front of Clancy's when one of their customers was mis-identified as an officer of an organization that was terrorizing Minneapolis. It had nothing to do with Clancy's! As I tried to get to my car, people yelled the most obscene and disgusting epitaphs at the couple in front of me. I was just walking down Grand Avenue. They were even spitting at this innocent individual. As a liberal who marched for civil rights and against the war in Vietnam during the 1960s and 1970s, I was horrified. Blaming Clancy's is ignorant, and an integral part of how this country is dismantling. Clancy's Meats & Fish is important to our neighborhood, and represents the kindness and empathy that has been representative of Minnesota for decades. Give them your support.
