I came to Sole Cafe for a date night…read more It's located in St. Paul on a fairly busy street. The inside is pretty interesting -- the dining room is pretty large and almost seems like it wasn't meant to be a restaurant? That said, it's a cool space! The food was great. I appreciated that they had a vegetarian section. The tofu soup was delicious and very well spiced. I loved eating it with the rice they served. The clay pot bibimbap was also very yummy, but definitely needed some heat -- the Gochujang at each table was helpful for this! The bonchon was good too, and the server was helpful in pointing out what was and was not vegetarian. I would go back here but I'll point out that it's pricey for what you get. The portions aren't huge. There are a few other Korean places we've been too that are both delicious and offer better value, in my opinion.

One thing to keep in mind is that they can get very busy at night or on weekends, so the wait for a table can be pretty long. Also, during busy hours, a few of the items we ordered were missed, and we had to place the order again. Despite that, the experience was still good

If you're looking for an "as close as you can get in Minnesota" authentic Korean BBQ experience,…read moreShinhwa is a great local spot. The wait time is a little long, and although the website says that you can call ahead for reservations, they are a walk-in only establishment. It took around 45 minutes for a table to open up, but once we were seated it was such a fantastic experience. My wife and I chose to only select the BBQ option, but you could choose Hot Pot as well, or BOTH! Great options for meat selection, a build your own sauce bar, and a robot delivery service put this place over the top. You will not leave feeling hungry at Shinhwa, if you've been hoping to try authentic Korean BBQ in Minnesota, I would highly recommend this place - especially great for large groups!

The BBQ on the other hand....boy you talking about some impeccable food. If they had this where I lived, the wait staff will know me on a first name basis. This is the spot to go for Korean BBQ if you're ever in the Minneapolis/St Paul area. OH...the loud Super Mario sound...it's just the robot food server roaming around. Lol

What an amazing restaurant ! I am obsessed with this place!…read more This restaurant was insanely delicious-- what's not to love ? They have little robots bringing around food, which improves service. And it's fun to see these cute little robots with food and drinks ! The ambiance is very lively and exciting ! People are truly enjoying the experience, and it shows ! Had a great time with a variety of options and will definitely be back soon for more amazing food! AND they give you free ice cream at the end of the meal! LOVED IT ! WILL RETURN !

We absolutely LOVED having breakfast at Mai's Kitchen! This is one of the many restaurants located…read morein the food court at Hmong Village...it reminds me a bit of a hawker center in Singapore. We tried two different types of noodles...red kapoon and regular pho, plus some purple sticky rice. The red kapoon is a spicy with a hint of pickled flavor, it's complex and tasty. The pho is very rich and also extremely well flavored, with a hint of toasted garlic. Both really hit the spot on a cold morning, and we would get both again. The purple sticky rice was perfect for our toddler to much on, she loved it. Prices are extremely reasonable and service is quick. The food court was not very busy at 9 am but most of the restaurants were open. We will definitely be back!

Maybe I'm a Mai's at the way you love me all the time Maybe…read moreI'm a Mai's at the way I really need you The Hmong Village is a huge Warehouse full of textiles and trinkets and amazing Goods that are generally Vietnamese but also from all parts of the world. And at one end of this massive Warehouse of goodies and delights is this enormous endless row of magical food places which are serving everything from Pho to fake Chinese food to fake Japanese food to Korean food and even some real Chinese and Japanese to go with the Thai and the Filipino and a little bit of everything such as Laotian and Cambodian - but definitely heavy on the Vietnamese stuff as is the expectancy. The sad thing is that people on Yelp haven't really made a dent into these yet as I came here and noticed that probably only three or four of the 30 or 40 food places in this massive Market have even been put on Yelp yet. I've now put them all on Yelp and will be working my way through them each time I visit Saint Paul until I have put up pix of various dishes at each one. But if you live around here and you come here more regularly than I do, what's your excuse? Give all of these places a try! Put them on the map! Figure out which ones are the true hidden gems! Why go to Ye Olde Basic Brewery yet again for yet another pale ale and yet another microbrew craft beer and some more freaking Mozzarella Sticks. You can come here and do what Yelp is really all about which is trying new things and putting little places like this on the map.

The server wrongly charged us for the combo dish for two with individual items. So the price went…read moreup quite a bit. This feels more intentional as they knew clearly that it is a combo as they explained different choices in the combo. They did correct it after I explained. We also ordered a couple of takeouts. They added 18% tips for all of it automatically. And the final bill still shows options for the tips. We ordered a grilled Mackerel and the taste was so bland. The place felt a rip off.

The tahng soo yuk was not the best I've had. The breading didn't have the crunchy popcorn texture like I've had from other places. It was slightly crispy and fluffy. I was given plenty of sauce but it was essentia flavorless. There was only a hint of sweet and sour. The bibimbap was relatively flavorless as well with minimal meat. Maybe we didn't pick the best things on the menu. The restaurant was busy and a lot of people seem to enjoy the food here! Maybe I'll come back to try the bulgogi.

The food was all delicious! The Bulgogis each had that deep rich flavor that you hope for. The pork had a little more spice but not too much.

The staff is still working on getting processes and systems locked down. The hours on Yelp are not 100% accurate. They are going to get prep, systems and flow dialed in and will soon been as great as their food.
