    Wine & Ramble on Rose cocktail
    Jennifer B.

    All of our food was fantastic!! We had the crab artichoke dip to start, and it came out blazing hot. It was very yummy and we practically liked the bowl clean (once it cooled down). I started with the Ramble on Rose cocktail, and while it was very tasty, it was quite small. I moved on to wine with my dinner. For our mains, we had the Rigatoni and the Orecchiette. Again, both came out nice and hot, and we fabulous tasting. We both ate every single bite! I did ask for extra cheese to top my Rigatoni, but I just really like cheese. The flavor of the sauce was deep and rich even without the extra. We had a reservation, but it wasn't crowded, even on a Saturday night. I liked the décor inside, there is a bar for a more casual drink-only spot, and some outside seating.

    Great food and drinks. I was disappointed to learn the previous restaurant Sonder Shaker had closed. Wanted to come check out the new spot that took over. I was pleasantly surprised. I had the rigatoni minus the sausage and shared some bruschetta. I'm not a vegetarian, just don't eat pork. The pasta with no meat was a hit. The bread was so good. Loved the Can't Hardly Wait cocktail too. Service was fast and friendly, and I like the rustic Italian and olive tree decor. I'll be back to try more.

    The moment you walk in, you're transported to a hidden café in the heart of Italy. The recent rebrand has transformed this place into something truly stunning--warm, inviting, and full of character. I was welcomed by Sheila, the manager, whose energy and passion for the restaurant set the tone for the entire experience. She's absolutely incredible--genuine, attentive, and clearly takes pride in the place. Shortly after, I was greeted by Francesca, who introduced herself (a rare and refreshing gesture!). She was prompt, personable, and brought out my drink right away. Excellent service from start to finish. I ordered the rigatoni and house-made bread, and both were next-level. The rigatoni was cooked to perfection, served with a flavorful spicy fennel sausage sauce that delivered just the right amount of heat. The bread? Absolutely magnificent--freshly baked and paired with a lemon thyme butter that was nothing short of heavenly. Truly one of the best dining experiences I've had in a long time. Already planning my next visit. Bravo to the entire team!

    Very tasty Italian restaurant in Northeast Minneapolis! Parking was paid street parking but there were many spots available on a Sunday evening. Service was great, super quick and happy to answer questions. All of the food was delicious and reasonably priced for what you get.

    this place just opened up in May and my god i need them to get more business because they very much deserve it!!!! seems like a family owned business with a small menu but every dish is made with so much love and deliciousness. every item we got came out piping hot, super yummy, and were generously portioned. the pastas were amazing and their homemade sauces made them even better. the prawns on the aglio e celio were some of the best shrimp i've ever had in minneapolis. super fresh, perfectly cooked, and HUGE! i also got the juicy cocktail and it was made with carrot juice. never had anything like it before but definitely need to have it again. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking to support a new local business. the employees were super friendly.

    Eating good in the NE neighborhood . Subtle and tasty place near st Anthony main. Food and vibes are good Restaurant in a walkable area

    Bruschetta
    Emily A.

    Visited 5/14/25. Taking the place of sonder shaker, looked forward to visiting this new pasta joint. I started with an aperol spritz which was pretty standard and refreshing. From there my friends and I split the bruschetta and arancini. The texture of the arancini didn't really do it for me-there were peas inside and while I adore peas it didn't really work. Also warm but not super hot and melty like the best arancini are. The bruschetta was fine and I loved the smattering of Parmesan on it but didn't feel worth it for the price point. I got the tuffoli with ragu and my friends got the lemon spaghetti. Nothing tasted crazy fresh or had a depth of flavor and I would've loved homemade pasta with the price points given. Overall, it was a fine meal but wouldn't necessarily be my pick for a night out eating pasta. (To be fair I'm picky with my pasta places though). Service was great though and fun drink options available.

    Amazing cocktails and savory entrees! Delightfully surprised of everything we ordered. Our server Sarah went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of. Her recommendations did not disappoint.

    I miss Sonder Shaker. Small, expensive portions. Staff is overconfident and strange. This place is over their head. Business will fail soon.

    Walked ten minutes to eat here to get turned away because we were not staying at the hotel. Staff at the door were not friendly.

    In order of faves…read more Juicy Lucy: name says it all. Cheesy juicy goodness would def get again. Liked the impossible burger more than the bean patty too Strawberry shake: super flavorful will def get again Cauliflower Lemon pepper beer battered wings (crispy, flavorful, would get again) fries with ranch (tasty without sauce, liked the seasoning tasty with the ranch sauce so good. Will get again) Cooler ranch fries: husband and son really liked this. Would get again but I also like having the ranch sauce too Garlic girl burger (tasty and fun would get again) Chips and sour cream: would get again hubby also liked. But I might be able to make this sour cream myself. Cesar salad: tasty, but not my fave. I did really like the croutons Would return and would get all these items again. Highly recommend. No allergy issues. Highly recommend

    Francis Burger Joint is a fully plant-based (vegan) restaurant which also has plenty of gluten free…read moreoptions! It is a casual spot with ample seating. They have QR codes on each table so you can order on your phone, and they have WiFi available. Alternatively, someone can take your order if you'd prefer! For the burgers, you can choose between the impossible patty or the black bean patty. For the chicken sandwiches, you can choose grilled or fried vegan chicken. For beverages, they have cocktails, mocktails, wine, beer, THC drinks, milkshakes, pop, lemonade, and more! There are so many options which is great! The fries are crispy! One of my friends went with the ranch fries which were good, but in my opinion it was not worth the $2 upcharge for the amount of seasoning that comes on them. I would recommend sticking with the regular fries and ordering a side of ranch as a dipping sauce instead! This is the only place that I'm aware of where you can get a vegan juicy lucy! It is very cheesy, and it's fun that there's a meatless version of a MN classic! It was messy to eat though so make sure to have a napkin nearby! I really enjoyed the atmosphere, and would go back! I think it's be a great place for hanging out with friends, especially if there are any vegans or vegetarians in the group!

    Such a cool and fun experience! We were in the area for dinner and on a whim decided to check out…read morethe "speakeasy" in the area. We had no idea where to go, but heard to go down an alleyway behind up-down and then saw a random door that we had no idea was the entrance until another group came over! We knocked and they slid the door hole open to speak, it was so fun! Felt like a real speakeasy. Once we were in, we were seated in the back. There was an hour and 1/2 limit, but that was plenty of time for us to have a drink. I ordered the Me Espresso and my husband ordered the special of the day, which was a scotch with a special twist. Both were delicious! Definitely a little pricier, but the atmosphere made up for the cost. Overall I would definitely recommend! Next time we may wait for a booth to be served out of a window in the wall, did not know about that until we got there! Such a fun touch.

    I came here on a Wednesday around 6:30 PM under new ownership. It was pretty quiet in there. I…read moreloved the vibe and the jazzy music they were playing though. The waiter was nice, but I'm not sure if he was new. He didn't know what the specials were. He didn't know what the wine was. It says on the menu, red or white and he didn't know what either brand was or the food specials on the menu. sometimes it took a while for him to come over because he was chatting up another booth behind us. We ordered the chicken that was on the menu and it was a very small piece of chicken and it was supposed to come with broccolini and there was three skinny little stalks, and there was some kind of purée underneath it. Not sure if that was potatoes or what, but the chicken had a very good flavor. It was just very small. That's my complaint on that so we ended up ordering the sweet potato fries and that was a good portion and very good. I would definitely order those again. There is parking behind the building, but you need a parking pass to park there.
