The staff was welcoming and assisted promptly and explained to me that it was like a latte with cinnamon swirl syrup which sounded great to me. It's definitely a nice spot to stop by if you're in the area!

I did also did their sausage egg bites and they were truly delicious, probably the most flavorful egg bits I've ever had. That said, the customer service was a bit lacking. While I always try to be kind and ask how they are - rather than just getting straight to my order - the individual that checked me out, as well as prepared my order, was a bit grumpy to respond and I felt a bit of a nuisance when I asked a question about one their seasonal coffee drinks or for cinnamon to add to my latte.

Conveniently located in the Eagan Outlet Mall. Park at the center of the large parking ramp for shortest walking distance. Service was excellent.

He was helping another customer when we walked in, but he made sure to acknowledge us to assure us he would help us in a couple of minutes. It was fun to see our crepes made fresh. Ambiance was cozy, modern and cute. I think this was the former Starbucks location, so the floors and layout were perfect for a crepe spot.

We highly recommend you check this place out located on the ground floor of the Aire MSP apartments.

I assume this is a neighborhood gem as the line quickly grew by 830 or so If you are in the area or waiting for service e on your car nearby then I would highly recommend you stop in to this local shop.

I love the vibe and their seasonal drinks. It's so neat to watch them make up the drinks because for the most part, they put a lot of care into them - it looks like an art. The one downside is that the staff and coffee can be very hit or miss. Sometimes, I get very kind staff and other times they are flustered and it definitely can reflect on the drink. I'd rather have people take their time with their craft than rush and come off frustrated.

Love that! I went with the milk chocolate since I never tried it. Came to $3.95 which is a great price for what I was getting. Didn't know what to expect but it wasn't what I got. At first it tasted like a regular yummy hot chocolate and then I got a delicious after taste of the best tasting chocolate. SO FREAKIN GOOD!!!!!! You can tell they use good stuff. Not sure if I'll have a chance to go back but if I do, definitely need to try the dark chocolate version. Two thumbs up from me.

The experience at this restaurant is weird. Show up at 11am…read more- you'll have a line out the door. That is understandable, as it's peak brunch time. You talk to the front desk, and they'll tell you there's an hour wait if you don't have a reservation. You look around and see open tables. You think: "that's odd". You check on the website and it says you can get a reservation for 15, 30, and 45 minutes from now. You select a reservation for 15 minutes from now, and magically there isn't an hour wait for you anymore. You note the still open tables and the line not moving. The restaurant is very loud. They're doing late 2010's industrial chic with not a soft surface in site and garage doors, so everybody's conversation bounces around indefinitely. You wait a while for a server to come. I find the way the food looks when it arrives is always different than the way it sounds when you read the menu - sometimes for better, and sometimes for worse. The coffee and bar menu is pretty decent for a brunch place. Prices are on the high end, though some are more reasonable than others. Then you get hit with a 3% credit card fee which isn't adequately disclosed on the menu or when you enter the restaurant.

While this place is relatively small (as one would expect a hole-in-the-wall donut shop to be), they've made impressive use of the space, as there's plenty of tables and chairs to sit at (even a couple on the outside of the establishment, for warmer temperature seasons than presently, aha). It was clean and modern. The employee working behind the counter was friendly and matched my enthusiastic energy, which was appreciated. There didn't seem to be a huge selection of donut varieties available (though I was also there after 11am, which might have something to do with that... this place is open until noon or until they run out of product, whichever comes first), but plenty enough to give me difficulty choosing which to get! All the donuts/baked goods seemed to be priced at $2.50 each. Not an outrageous sum, though more than I'd like... I fear the days of the $1 donut are nothing but a distant memory nowadays. Anyway, I grabbed two donuts and went on my merry way home. The employee put them in a nice wax paper coated baggie. The flavor of the donuts was good. Not addictively incredible, but yummy. There's a decent chance I'll be stopping by in the future simply because this place is along a route I typically take for running errands, and my sweet tooth may compel me to "reward" myself for running said errands, hehe!

The service was excellent from start to finish. Guests are assigned a table number upon arrival, place their order at the coffee bar, and then return to their table while food runners deliver drinks and meals. The staff was consistently friendly, helpful, and eager to answer questions. One surprise was the pricing. An iced tea cost $4.50, and it was unclear whether refills were available. For two people, a crispy chicken sandwich with bacon, chicken and waffles, and beverages came to approximately $70 after tip and applying accumulated Toast rewards. While the food quality was good, the overall cost makes this more of an occasional treat than a regular brunch destination for budget-conscious diners. As for the food itself, my chicken and waffles were delicious. The waffle was light, fluffy, and flavorful. Guests should note that coconut is used in many of the bakery items and baked goods. The crispy chicken was equally enjoyable, although I found it slightly on the salty side. My dining companion felt the breading on his chicken was a bit oilier than he preferred. The restaurant offers a bright, welcoming atmosphere with comfortable seating. However, the noise level was somewhat elevated during our visit, making conversation a little challenging at times. Of course, I couldn't resist spending some time at the bakery counter. While the bakery items are certainly not inexpensive, I found them competitively priced compared to some higher-end grocery stores in the Twin Cities that sell mass-produced gluten-free products at premium prices. Would I recommend Olivia's? Absolutely. The food is high quality, the staff is exceptional, and the gluten-free options are a welcome find. Just be prepared for the cost. For many diners, Olivia's may be best enjoyed as an occasional brunch splurge rather than an everyday destination.
