    Dutch baby with smoked trout
    Katy I.

    While the brunch experience has always been great, the dinner experience leaves something to be desired. The staff are always wonderful and they do full service for dinner (instead of order at the front for brunch). We were going to see a play at Mixed Blood and they were wonderfully accommodating so we could get to the show on time. My partner had the lamb special and they liked it. I got the burrata pasta dish and was disappointed. It didn't have a lot of flavor and didn't really have a sauce, though there was some tomato in it. It tasted like watery pasta with burrata on it. We will definitely return for brunch, but I'm not sure if we will be back for dinner. Maybe I just picked the wrong dish. The ambiance is still lovely no matter the time of day.

    Lovely spot for breakfast/brunch! Met a friend for an early breakfast on a Tuesday. The food is incredible! I had the steak and eggs and would go back to have it again for sure! The space is clean and cute. You order at the counter and your food is brought to you - which is perfect for both dine in and takeout/coffee to go. Our server was a little forgetful, but she was the only one working.

    Bucatini
    Ruby W.

    Surprised it has taken me this long to visit, but it has been hard to get over the Birchwood closing (rip). Had a lovely dinner with the Cashbars (and Atticus). Sat out on the patio and didn't go inside so I'm not sure about indoor ambiance, but the patio is so nice. Love the flowers all over. Our server was cutie and food came out pretty quickly. Ellie and I split the grilled ruby and the maitake tartine. Both were good. I liked the blush vinaigrette on the salad a lot. Was suprised how much I liked the grilled ruby, because I'm not normally much of a beet person, but with the avocado and all the pickled things it was very good. Lowkey I wolfed the maitake tartine down so fast I cannot remember a single thing about its taste. I was so hungry. Tried a little of the bucatini and thought it was a little bland.

    Fish Fry
    Brian S.

    Brought the kids here for dinner last night. The experience was mostly good, with one big caveat (see below). The service was great; the server helped us find a place to sit that would be best for two kids, she was attentive, and the food came out pretty fast. The menu is small, but all of the options were appealing, and they also have a kids menu. They do label GF and Vegan (although not DF, but they will help you with what options do not have dairy). My daughter ordered the butter noodles kids meal and I had the fish fry, with my son sharing some of mine (he's 1). Everything tasted great; my daughter said the noodles were some of the best she has ever had. My fish fry was good too. The one major issue was the portion sizes...they were woefully small. My daughter could have easily eaten two bowls of the noodles, and she's only 4. I could have done with another piece of fish and more fries (my son did have a bit of mine, but even had he not, the meal would have still been too small. Sadly, I had to make both her and myself another meal when we got home. The ambiance was nice, and they have high chairs and a bar. Other than the portion sizes, everything was great, but the prospect of eating here once and then eating another meal back at home to fill up will likely keep us away in the future.

    This place is popular, but we were able to grab a table. I got the breakfast burrito. It was good, but the aoli was much too garlicy for me. I was definitely warding off vampires for the rest of the day. I would get the sauce on the side if you order it.

    Dutch Boy with egg and fruit.

    We were looking for a breakfast place that was open at 7 am. The restaurant is located in a residential area. Plenty of street parking. The restaurant has a lot of seating (compared to the High Hat that we frequent). We ordered the Dutch Baby, breakfast burrito with vegan chorizo, and rose salad. The food was fresh and delicious. The service was very good.

    We enjoyed lunch here with family. I had the corned beef hash. The meat was slightly chewy but still tasty. We also had the short rib sandwich with cheese. The coffees were very nice. Our family also enjoyed the breakfast burrito, waffle and avocado toast. Service was great. We had a great dining experience.

    Breakfast Burrito
    Maria L.

    Darling was very peaceful on an early Sunday morning. The breakfast burrito and the breakfast potatoes were delicious, and the bacon was cooked perfectly. The eggs were also soft scrambled, which I appreciate! I would have liked some other toast options, but otherwise the breakfast was tasty and enjoyable. Love the pollinator garden out front of the restaurant too.

    Citrus Salmon
    Maria A.

    10 out of 10! The team at Darling delivered exceptional service one of a kind cocktails and a delicious heartwarming, soul satisfying citrus salmon dinner. This evening I had the smoked trout which was accompanied by pita fresh crispy veggies, comforting corn chowder, and filling citrus salmon. The salmon had a crisp skin and delightfully unctuous crispy sage leafs...do not miss this special. They are crushing it at Darling...#heartandsoul

    Excellent and varied breakfast menu. Ditto the lunch menu, and one of the best beet salads in the city. Highly recommended.

    Nice place to be and i would recommend for you to visit them and try their food out. They have…read moregreat people working for them

    There is parking! See note at the end…read more Also note... there are three businesses under the one roof here that people could be talking about in their Yelp reviews. I've only been to the cafe, but there is also a separate, fancy-seeming restaurant as well as a boutique hotel. (Also they have a shop in South Minneapolis that has its own Yelp profile, Alma Provisions.) I definitely recommend that you try the cafe! I had a great mocha here, along with a breakfast sandwich and a carrot-apple juice. High quality all around, and all of it was enjoyed in a comfortable and beautifully decorated dining room. There is quite a lot of food on the menu; I was there for breakfast but they have a lunch menu that starts at 11am which I want to come back to try. Again, my mocha was absolutely delicious and the fresh bread really elevated that breakfast sandwich. I was here on a September Saturday morning at around 8:30 and it was very busy; the wait to order was about 15 minutes but there is enough seating that I didn't have trouble there. In addition to plenty of indoor tables, there is a lot of bar seating and a good number of patio tables. On the West side of the building is a large parking lot, most of which is for nearby apartment buildings. But there is a sign that makes it clear that the spaces numbered 1-7 are for Alma customers.

This place has a casual local coffee shop feel that has both indoor and outdoor seating. Although it was fairly busy at the time I visited, service was still relatively fast. I particularly liked my latte drink because you could taste the unique salted caramel flavor without it being muted with the espresso and milk. The flavor came through clear and I would definitely order it again. Additionally, I liked how they had a rotating seasonal menu. I would visit again to try some drinks on their "Trick or Treat" menu.

Food 4/5: we got the breakfast sandwich (sausage,egg,cheese,spinach on a croissant) and plain bagels. The breakfast sandwich was well seasoned and flavor balanced and I'd absolutely come back for! The bagel didn't seem the most fresh, but they did have other pasties I'd try. I also got the cold brew with maple syrup and a splash of milk and would absolutely come back for! Service 5/5: the ladies that helped me were so nice and helped answer all of my questions. The food/drink was made quickly. Ambiance 5/5: this place has plenty of seating inside and out and has a more cozy aesthetic. Definitely worth a try if you're on the neighborhood! I love that they have more than just pastry options for breakfast and we will definitely be back.
