For breakfast, I ordered two slices of their cinnamon French toast, served with two eggs and bacon. To drink, I treated myself to a delicious, beautifully layered tiramisu latte. ​Another thing I absolutely love is their grab-and-go bakery case. It is so rare and refreshing to see so many clearly labeled GF treats, like their Lemon Bars and Almond Cheesecake. We couldn't resist taking some goodies to go, so we went home with a lemon bar and one of their GF Fruity Pebbles bars. ​If you're looking for a delicious, incredibly gluten-free friendly brunch spot with a great atmosphere, you have to check this place out!

Absolutely loved this gem of a breakfast place while I was in Minneapolis for a work trip! I…read morestopped by twice and both times got the tostadas - once with carnitas (my fav) and once with the chicken tinga. They also had a delicious iced banana bread latte on their special menu...the banana bread cold fold was so, so good. The second time I stopped in, I was with a coworker and they tried the avocado coffee...which was interested. It was similar to a smoothie consistency, but was definitely not my cup of tea. Overall, great service, quick meal and really delicious food.

First of all we found this place on Yelp and landed on it because of the high reviews and how close it was to our airbnb. I was a bit worried about a wait as it looked popular but with two people we were able to get in pretty quick (less than 5 min wait) on a Sunday morning. It was packed though, so there might be a wait. Space is at a premium in this building and despite being a bit crammed in it was still a great experience overall. Honestly everything was wonderful. The server: A+, ambiance: great, food: holy hell it was delicious. I had some sort of benedict that came on cornbread and was paired with some incredible hashbrowns. Chef's kiss. I also ordered a specialty mocha for fun and it also did not disappoint. This place is a slam dunk for breakfast. If you live in the twin cities and you haven't eaten here yet what are you doing!?

I have seen people argue with the owner. It's a small place and he values his staff so much that he will not opt for income over his staff's mental health or stress level. I admire that so much. All the more reason to take your close friend and enjoy a real down to earth local business!!!

Looked so good!! Fresh orange juice is a huge bonus. What I am used to in Mexico and love!! Ordered simple egg, 2 meats and hash browns. Eggs looked fresh and tasted good. Bacon was thick but next time will ask for a bit crunchy. Hashbrowns were browned crispy. I had pancakes added for a small price as pancakes and french toast is a specialty they are known for. Light and tasty and they have "MN maple" which was delicious. I will come back again and try a Mexican breakfast burrito. I feel like that is going to be my go to. Counter service was excellent. Ambiance is local neighborhood vibe.

This is an order at the counter place, but staff is very helpful in explaining how it all works. I got a breakfast burrito and it arrived super fast. It was also big, stuffed full of beans, cheese and hashbrowns, so it kept me full all afternoon. The salsa on the side was tasty and has the kind of heat that sneaks up on you a bit. That just got me to get a glass of water in addition to my coffee, which was excellent. There were lovely looking pastries in the case but I resisted this time. I think there are 3 rooms, lots of wood on the walls and in the booth construction gives it a cozy feel. The all gender bathrooms are spotless.

This time our family tried the 5th Avenue Minneapolis location right across from Twins Stadium. Quick tip, park in the garage facing the restaurant on the left side. It's an easy elevator ride up and the signage makes it simple. Matt was our server and did an outstanding job. Great service always makes a difference. Beverage options were excellent too, stuff for everyone, mimosas, specialty coffee drinks, and really solid drip coffee. The menu has a great balance of savory and sweet, so naturally we tried both. We had the breakfast sandwich with sausage, a BLT on a croissant, biscuits and gravy, pancakes with fruit, and a croissant-waffle fusion with lemon and sweet cream. Honestly, everything was delicious. What I appreciate most is the atmosphere. These restaurants just feel comfortable, welcoming, and easy to enjoy with family or friends. I'm excited they're coming to Maple Grove, but I'll still keep visiting the St. Paul, St. Louis Park, and Minneapolis locations too because I want to see our cities and local businesses thrive.

I never find it too difficult parking in this neighborhood and managed to find street parking fairly easily. On this occasion, I got the huevos rancheros and my sister got à la carte options of an egg and fruit cup, fries, and a pancake to share. Cannot rave enough about the pancakes here and I'm not even a pancake person. Everything else was delicious and special shout out to the kenwood for the complimentary banana bread with the best butter ever. Definitely a worthwhile brunch

When asked for…read morerecommendations, the waiter said that if you loved baloney sandwiches as a child, the TK Mortadella was an upscale version, basically what baloney wished it could be. I have NEVER been a fan of baloney, but something about the way he described it made me want to try it. To be safe, we also ordered a pulled pork sandwich to split both. One ordered fries and one a salad, again, to split. That TK Mortadella was sooo good! Amazing blend of flavors on delicious house-made focaccia. The pulled pork was also good, but when I go again, I'm getting the mortadella. Cute inside, very nice service. Per usual, I forgot to take pix when the food first came out, so don't judge them on presentation. :)

I'm a visitor from out of state and doubt that I'll ever be back to this restaurant again. Had the lamb chops because that's what I was expected to order. The tab before the tip was $400 for five of us. I don't think we got our moneys worth. But I'm an old fart and This place was not my choice. The others thought that the meals were terrific. Service was excellent and attentive. I had a difficult time picking something from the menu that interested me. I'm sure this place attracts a certain clientele who are impressed with their James Beard award and local reputation. I guess I'm just not impressed by a restaurant that can't season lamb chops so they have a nice flavor. This one failed in my opinion.
