OMG, I think I'm IN LOVE…read more And this place is literally SO CLOSE to where we live now, I can walk there in just half an hour. (Probably good cuz you gotta work off the calories from those malts...) I actually saw this place advertised on a road sign for eateries to expect on the next exit. Usually those get covered in all the food chains like Taco Bell and junk, so my interest was piqued and I announced my enthusiasm to my hubbie that we try it. DELICIOUS. We arrived on a lovely sunny spring day, so we chose to dine outside on their patio area. The inside had a fun retro cafe aesthetic that I'm sure we'll enjoy during the cooler months at some point too. The staff was incredibly friendly and in a good mood, which added to my own happiness upon arrival. We were seated and given menus to study, and I do mean I had to thoroughly study it. Picking out what I wanted was TOUGH. Everything looked mouth-wateringly good, but I finally settled on the patty melt on the marbled rye with the waffle fries. Excellent choice, and it was so humongous of a portion that I ended up taking half home and reheating it in my air fryer another day. Love that! Hubbie and I shared a large chocolate malt, which they gave us two glasses to pour into. It was also delicious. All the prices seemed pretty reasonable, especially for nowadays the way the economy is. IYKYK. We're already planning the next time we'll be back! Yummy yummy in my tummy!

Cute shop and they also have a great selection of Italian products in the shop, plus their own ready-made items like homemade frozen pizzas and take-and-bake entrees, which is such a nice bonus. It's takeout only, but they make it easy with online ordering. Prices are very reasonable for the quality and portion size. This place is truly a hidden gem.

Quite honestly, there are very, very few places that serve a good roast beef sandwich in the North…read moreStar State. Granted, I grew up elsewhere, so my tastes were forged differently than most Minnesotans, but I have persisted on my quest for great RARE and thinly sliced roast beef for the last 40 plus years. In my opinion, only two places qualify as great: Wally's Roast Beef in Bloomington and Maverick's Real Roast Beef in Roseville. Morts in Golden Valley used to be good, but then it went downhill and closed in 2023. Wally's is a funny, little place. First of all, it's located inside the Southtown Office Park Building. Go to the back (south) side of the building, go inside the door and it's immediately on the right. It's only open for lunch and it's closed on Saturdays. You will find it off of 494 on Penn Avenue. Wally's does that 1950's vibe and they specialize not only in Roast Beef, but also ham, turkey and a variety of soups. They also have daily specials as well as Blue plate, Red plate, and Green plate specials. One is meat loaf, one is roast beef, and one is turkey. They explain which is which on their website, but not on their restaurant board, which is insane, but is one of their quirks. Most importantly, the food tastes home-made, is excellent in terms of quality and taste and the prices are reasonable. C'mon, what more do you want? They have good milkshakes and tasty fries too. I think this place is a gem and I highly recommend it.

I absolutely love this place, BUT it is very spendy…read more I got a regular gyropolis meal with french fries and a fountain drink a cookie and a baklava (to go) and it was $26. However, with all of that said it was very delicious - so this place is a treat versus a frequent visit for me. I think they're doing very well, they semi-recently did a big construction overhaul. If you go during traditional lunch hours, expect a line... and maybe nowhere to sit. Outside of that, I visit occasionally when I visit my office - which is nearby. Every visit the food is fresh and I'm not disappointed. Some gyro places you have dry stale meat and it's such a bummer - not here. Be prepared to pay BUT try them out!

The waitress didn't appear to be loving her life that day but it happens. She answered all of our questions on the menu and we went with a wrap and a burger, plus cheese curds to start. Food was good, exactly what you would expect when you walk in. I will say this place is super busy, for it being a bar in the middle of the day- you would have never known. By the time we left the place was popping and there was no where to park. The avocado burger was good, I did a side of onion rings and everything hit the spot. I liked that we were asked if it would be one check or two as soon as we sat down vs. having the awkward conversation later.
