Huevos Benedicto
David P.

Simply one of the best breakfasts I've ever had. Huevos Benedicto... a play on the classic but spicy & full of flavor. Just the right amount of heat but not overpowering. The red sauce is thick and chunky and the chorizo is great. I will make this a regular visit for breakfast. Great service, great cook, small & quaint but not crowded. All good.

Jumbo Caramel Roll
Kendal F.

Small restaurant but they turn tables quick! We got there at 10:30am on a Saturday and were worried when we saw a wait but only ended up having to wait about 15 minutes. Once we were seated, service was quick and efficient and the food was yummy! The breakfast sandwich was a classic and the menu doesn't lie when it lists a jumbo caramel roll - it truly was the largest one I've ever had!

Junior's Breakfast Junior's Breakfast with side of bacon.

Went to Junior's on a whim. I have had their breakfast burritos brought in to work before and they were great. Nice little cozy diner with the counter bar and some tables. I sat up at the counter and was immediately greeted and ask what I would like to drink. I got coffee and the guy behind the counter gave me a menu and said any questions let me know. There were a few regulars in as he was talking with them. I ordered the Junior's breakfast and a side of bacon. This place reminded me of the old school diner in that you could see the griddle and watch them cook it up. It came nice and hot with a little extra cheese. When I got done i was more than happy and very full. If you are ever i. The area give them a try.

This is to help the business grow

Great waitress. Food was on point. Huge servings. Chicken fried chicken hot the spot. Comfort food made right at great prices.

Sit at the counter and enjoy watching this crew work.

Great Diner, well cooked food served quickly. I asked for crispy hash browns and got pretty near perfect crispy hash browns, not burned, well browned cooked extremely well.. just bout perfection I would say.. had the ham and 2 over easy eggs, with wheat toast all cooked well. Sit at the counter and watch the action.

Excellent liver and onion plate!

Great food and great service, only wish they served Coca Cola products. I will be coming back again.

Everything Omelet with hash browns and sourdough toast.
Jeffrey T.

Great little diner. I was here last week with a coworker and somehow left my wallet and phone. They closed early so I was there the next morning. Everything was cool and the owner gave me a hug! The food was hot fresh and tasty. Last week the Spanish omelet, had a little kick to it. Today the Everything omelet. Again very good food and great service too.

Did I just get a top 5 smashy out of a gas station? Wonderful quality and a great burger sauce…read more Far exceeded my expectations but I knew the backstory on the place so I wasn't comparing it to a gas station grab and go. Will certainly consider this spot anytime I am in the area. A+

I received an extremely greasy chili dog (the bottom of the bun was stained orange as if it was literally just sitting in grease, I had to tear the entire bottoms off. The chili was COMPLETELY flavorless with a non meat like chew, thats really as far as I can explain that one. It was like there, but tasted and disintegrated as if it wasn't. As well as, everything generally just came out as if it had been sitting around, it was cold and a bit stale. I also ordered a "THE FARMER" from their breakfast menu, and though this was better and a little fresher, the potatoes were still cold and mostly uneatable. So, inna nutshell I haven't tried everything, but this isn't the first time a meal I've had from there came out subpar. Price to quality food ratio id have to rate it like a 2-3, the hotdog was 8 dollars and "the farmer" was around 13-14. With that in mind, to have points where I am genuinely STRUGGLING through my meal is crazy. I would have to rate my overall experience between a 3 - 4 outta 10. If you don't mind a cool store and a gamble check it out !

Met a friend for Happy Hour at this spot to catch up and enjoy some small bites…read more Plenty of parking in the strip mall lot where this restaurant is located. The interior is modern and inviting, with some fun wallpaper making a statement. We cozied up to the bar during this visit. I will say that bar was a bit sloppy during our visit...bartenders' water bottles cluttering the visible space, bartenders spilling our drinks a bit during delivery, and weird transitions of staff that were a bit distracting. The Espresso Martini was the best item I ordered! Well balanced and the addition of the cold foam really made for an enjoyable sip. Would absolutely return for that one! The bites we ordered had great flavor, but some fell a bit flat when trying to live up to their creative ideas. The Fried Pickles were the best food item: perfectly crispy medallions with two delicious dipping sauces. The "burnt ends" cauliflower are really just roasted cauliflower with BBQ sauce on top, missing out on the umami juiciness of their namesake. The Chips that came with the Dip were just ruffled potato chips, not housemade or interesting. Solid spot for happy hour if you're looking in the area!

Starting my Happy Hour series and Kitchen and Rail in Eagan did not disappoint…read more The menu is curated, not overwhelming, but still has solid variety -- and the pricing? Very reasonable for the quality and vibe. We ordered the cauliflower burnt ends, fried pickles, and chips & dip. Everything came out flavorful and fresh. The cauliflower especially was a standout -- seasoned well with that perfect texture. The staff was helpful and very informative, which I always appreciate when trying a spot for the first time. The atmosphere gives after-work energy -- a place where you can unwind with coworkers or commune with family and friends. And the background tunes were on point. Happy Hour is getting a 4.5/5 from me. I'll definitely be back to keep this series going.

Had a sister's brunch today and the celebrant sister chose Hope Breakfast Bar. Another sister and I were like darn, it was the choice lowest on the list for both of us. But on our drive there, we decided we'd both try something that we typically wouldn't try to see if it changed our views. I tried the breakfast sandwich. It was decent, not anything I'd ever crave. The bacon overpowered everything else, even the everything bagel! She did the egg farm grazer which was vegetables and quinoa topped with an egg. She said it was fine as well. Both of our meals were on par with previous experiences. Our two other sisters chose some sort of waffle. One was the hope waffle which was good, standard waffle with fruit. The other was chicken and waffles, the taste is decent but the portion was surprisingly large! 4 pieces of chicken with the waffle! As we finished with our meals, I was happy that we weren't disappointed with our food, so that was a win! But they watch your time so carefully. The moment we were sitting for 90 mins on the dot, they asked us to go. So if you're looking for a place to catch up with someone, don't let it be here!

I came here for lunch on a Friday. The service was very friendly and checked in often!…read more The food unfortunately was not my favorite, the hash browns tasted plasticy, the steak was very dry (I like well done but this felt super well done) Eggs were good! If I lived near here, I would probably try it again but I can't see myself going out of my way to come back here. The ambiance was vintage diner! They have a lot of great posters and vintage decor.

It's tucked away in a trendy business district, and boasts the traditional Ze's decor inside. The ambiance was more lively, as they had several TVs and an open kitchen concept. The booths were a bit small. Our party of three small adults were cramped in the odd shaped booth. There were several Ze's tshirts on display all over, but nobody knew how to buy/order them. Our food was outstanding. Eggs benny, MN Rancher and Denver omelette. The service is one of my favorite things about Ze's. Not this visit. Our server had a scowl on his face and his micro bladed eyebrows were scrunched. He came to the table and really didn't say anything. Hubby ordered the rancher and the server literally asked, "Eggs? (How cooked) Meat? Toast?" and then turned to awkwardly take other orders. At first, I thought maybe it was a language barrier, but I heard him speaking to other staff just fine. We sat there quite a while, watching interactions at other tables and it was just atrocious. We saw him again when he delivered our plates (all to the wrong people) and when he dropped off the credit card scanner. We were never checked on and our drinks (including coffee) were never refilled. Beverages are pretty steeply priced, so that made it even more disappointing. I'm definitely not going to return to this location and it makes me appreciate the staff in Hastings even more!
