    Albuquerque Omelet (Special)
    Lindsay R.

    Love this place. Definitely one of the best breakfast places in the Twin Cities. I normally get the Juevos Rancheros Con Papas Favorito which is the absolutely best Juevos Rancheros breakfast dish in the Twin Cities. I've tried so many and non bear this place. This time though I decided to try their special Albuquerque Omelette and it was amazing!!! Filled with cheese and hatch chilis then smothered in half red and half green hatch chilis. It was huge and so good. You definitely need to be able to tolerate some heat though. It's more than Minnesotan spicy. Next time I want to try one of the Fruit Fritters. I saw so many coming out of the kitchen and it looked amazing! Weekends the place is packed and they are not open for dinner. I went on a weekday morning and got in right away. Great customer service. Give this place a try!

    Norm's omelette with avocado verde
    Stephanie P.

    Fat nats in Brooklyn Park is a solid choice for breakfast if you're in the area. We had the Mike's omelette which has ham, cheese and red potatoes inside and topped with hollandaise sauce. We also had the Norm's which has ham, bacon, veggies and cheese. I also got a side of avocado verde which is good but spicy. Boderline to spicy to even enjoy. Omelette's come with toast or a pancake. Both omelettes were good. The portions are huge. You can add a side of hashbrowns but we usually find the omelette is plenty big. Service is quick, almost to quick. We were in and out within 30ish minutes on a busy Saturday morning.

    Pancake

    There was a long wait list upon arrival (Sunday morning, so it was expected). It moved surprisingly quickly which made our wait fairly short (11th in line when we checked in, ~20min wait). There was a surprising amount of Mexican influence on american classics, which was great to see. Ordered the build your own omelette meal: cheese, sausage, bacon, and broccoli, with a side of hash browns, and a pancake. The sausage and bacon were pretty good, but the broccoli was very undercooked and in large pieces, which made it a bit awkward to eat as part of the omelette. The pancake had a different flavor, which I can only describe as chlorinated water, not a big fan and didn't finish it. Lots of people ordering the eggs Benedict with bacon and avocado, so that may be something to try. Lots of seating, fast service, decent food, just a few things that did not live up to the hype.

    Build Your Own Omelette - sausage, bacon, broccoli with hashbrowns
    Cass A.

    We anticipated quite a long wait considering we visited in the late morning on a Sunday. While we were listed about 10 or so parties down, we were called to sit within less than 20 minutes. We overheard someone mention the portion sizes were large, so we opted to split a meal. I'm happy to say we're glad we split and are currently full as two adults with an appetite. We split a build your own omelette with sausage, bacon, and broccoli then chose cheddar cheese with it. The omelette was stuffed full of ingredients. The bacon was meaty and plentiful, the sausage was torn up patties, and the broccoli was undercooked considering the size of the florets. The hash browns looked phenomenal but lacked flavor and seemed to be overcooked internally. The pancake was large and paired well with the butter and syrup on the table. The service was both prompt and friendly. This is clearly a popular spot considering the number of tables filled on a Sunday during the brunch rush. Note: the majority of the menu items do not allow adjustments.

    Fat Nats is hearty and consistently delicious. Expect a 15-10 min wait on the weekends. They have a good size waiting area with seating . This restaurant seats many people so they turn tables quickly. There is always a special going on for a great price. This feels like a neighborhood diner, loud, all different types of people gather for good food. The portions are huge, everyone was walking out with to go containers. The service is quick and the waitress was knowledgeable and kind. The omelets have big chunks of meat and veggies. The omelets are named after peoples name. I had the David. David took up the entire length of the plate. Haha The Hollandaise was very good. I love their crispy Hashbrowns. Each omelette came with bread and they had offered at least 5 different types. This breakfast is filling and I walked away with breakfast again for another day for this one $15 omelet. This is a twin cities favorite

    El Jeffe omelet. So good with the black beans and chorizo.
    Jake S.

    Simple diner style place. Well done with good food, quick and friendly service and hot coffee. All of the servers were kind and conversational. If I lived closer this would be a weekly place to visit.

    Fruit Fritter Two French Toast Raspberry

    I have been hearing about this place for years and finally had the chance to try it. Went on a sunday morning with a friend so it was a bit of a wait, but worth it. Once we were sat, service was fast. The fruit fritter french toast was amazing and always gotta get a side of bacon. They have a really great menu with tons of options. Can't wait to return and maybe try something new but the french toast might be hard to resist!

    Guac Eggs Benedict, French toast, Lisa's specialty

    Good portion, nice vibes, good service Guac definitely has a nice hint of spice Everything seasoned nicely, and larger portions Great place for breakfast

    Blueberry Pancakes American potatoes
    Yvonne H.

    The place doesn't look fancy, more like an old fashioned dinner, but the food was pretty great, and we don't have any complaints about the service. Our waitress made sure to keep our coffee cups filled! We split an order of blueberry pancakes which were a tad try; they were huge though! My friend had the veggie omelette with American potatoes. She liked her omelette the potatoes were pretty taste, with just a hint of spicy aftertaste, almost like Cajun seasoning. The Fat Nat Slider was pretty amazing. There was A LOT of hollandaise sauce on it, but that was just fine for the leftovers. Hash brown and eggs were cooked just right. We definitely got too much food and didn't have to think about dinner! Downside: none of the staff wore masks or asked to see vaccines cards which I believe is still a requirement in restaurants in MN.

    Wagners has been around since 1971, but opened it's Brooklyn Park location in 1988. From the looks…read moreof it, you would think it has been there from the 1950's because it is an authentic drive-in restaurant. That means there are little speakers next to each parking stall from which you order (the menu is near the speaker) and they will bring the food to your car. They used to bring the food to you on a tray, but now it is bagged up for you to either enjoy in your car or to take home. Other options are to sit at one of about half a dozen picnic tables, or there is seating inside the restaurant. Frankly, Wagners was getting a bit run-down, but they have spruced up the place in the last couple of year, with a well-deserved paint job, new speakers, and new picnic tables. They even have hand held credit card readers, which saves the waitstaff from making extra trips to process your card. The menu has all of the classics you would want, from a variety of tasty, juicy hamburgers, hot and cold sandwiches, meals that include fries, coleslaw, and toast. Their French fries are crinkle cut and excellent: crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. The onion rings are good and you can have Chile in a bowl or on your hamburger or hotdog. There are milkshakes, desserts, kids' meals and smoothies. I've eaten here for years and the food is always reliably great, the service is always friendly and the prices are very reasonable. Take your kids here, take your grandkids here, go here for a date, or just go yourself. It's a fun and tasty time!

    Stopped by this cute drive in diner just for a hot fudge sundae…read more We ordered a chocolate sundae with hot fudge but ended up with a vanilla hot fudge which was fine It was pretty melted as soft serve Not sure i would order this again- maybe just try the milkshake or malt instead as it was quite soupy The server comes out to your car for delivery and payment - very friendly Would try some other menu items next time

    Please be aware that there are six locations for the 5-8 Grill. The one I am reviewing is in…read moreChamplin. My first impression was that this place was really busy. It was a Friday night, but we arrived a bit after 5 pm and the place was completely full. However, we didn't wait long for a table because turnover is quick. This is the second time I've eaten at this location and the food and service is consistently good. The 5-8 Club claims they invented the Juicy Lucy, as does Matt's Bar. (For those who don't know, a Juicy Lucy made of two thin hamburger patties stuffed with cheese and then grilled, resulting in liquid lava in the middle of your hamburger.) My wife says that she prefers Matt's Jucy Lucy (note spelling difference) because the burgers are smaller, meaning the cheese to meet ratio makes it more cheesy, where 5-8 uses a larger burger, so it seems as if they use less cheese. I'm not a huge fan of either (I'd rather have a conventional burger), but personally I'd opt for the larger burger with more meat than cheese. Also, I give points to 5-8 for spelling Juicy correctly. The fries that come with the burger were seemed like they were battered, but were hot and tasty. I opted for the Wings and chose the Thai Chili sauce. The wings were great! I have been into wings lately and these were very meaty and were well crisped on the outside, but juicy (or jucy) on the inside. The Thai Chili sauce was sweet and a bit tangy, but certainly not overly spicy. The wings came with celery sticks and a blue cheese dressing that had actual blue cheese in the dressing. Service was friendly and surprisingly good, considering how busy they were. All in all, it was a good experience. There menu is typical bar food, but they do it well.
