They gave a cozy outdoor area to eat ice cream - with areas of shade. I was very happy to see that they had "mini" sizes - where you got two scoops -which was the size I wanted. They also had shakes and other ice cream stuff. Absolutely recommended as a break in the drive to/from Minneapolis-Saint to SF

Ice cream was tasty, so that's the main thing. It was a mid-90s day, so they were very very busy…read more Service was pretty quick for how many people were in line when we got there. I am the last person to tell someone to smile. SO annoying! But, the 3 people working looked so unhappy to be there. No friendliness whatsoever. Now, I am obviously not aware of placement of individuals on the neurodivergency scale, but if one is in customer service and especially serving ice cream, some level of joyfulness might be expected. Perhaps even, dare I say, a smile when a customer makes a funny mistake. I know I said they were busy, but they didn't seem frantic or overrun in any way. It just felt a bit uncomfortable, like when you walk in on an argument and they stop because you came in. BUT, back to the ice cream. It was good. Would have loved a peanut butter chocolate flavor (not available that day), but was okay with cookie dough and Macha as a surpringly good combo. We also had the cafe latte da, which was amazing! Will likely go back again with hopes of a more comfortable, maybe even joyful, experience. I'll be sure to time it when PB Loves Chocolate is being served!

Each time we've come here (three times and we live in the Twin Cities and only moved to MN from Arizona less than 2 years ago), there are multiple tables of workers breaking for a yummy lunch and chatting in Spanish. This is the food we're all missing from back home. Our absolute favorite is the carne asada burrito. Wonderfully flavored steak, guacamole, pico de gallo, and fresh tortilla paired with some of their zanahorias en escabeche (pickled carrots), delicious medium green salsa for me and spicy hot red for my hubby. So good!! While I waited for our food (they make it fresh), I chatted with one of the workers and lamented that we didn't have a Giliberto's near us in the TC. She let me know there IS one in Blaine, which is close to us! What a great discovery! Our next craving we'll be checking out the Blaine location. Vamonos! PS Make sure to catch the amazing mural on the grain silos nearby. So well done. Love it! https://www.americansiloart.com/mankato-minnesota

Nice space..plenty of tables and parking. The staff was nice and attentive…read more I was little disappointed that I had no path forward to try several dishes. Yet I settled on chai tea, butter chicken and garlic naan. Perfectly cooked rice with chicken simmered in a creamy tomato-based sauce flavored with butter, garlic, ginger, and warm spices. I asked for medium heat but it was very mild. Garlic naan was soft, fluffy flatbread traditionally brushed with butter and topped with fresh garlic and herbs. It was super good when dipped in the butter chicken sauce. This makes me crave lentil soup and lemon rice.
