    Solid breakfast. The place was rocking busy and it wasnt even 8:00 am on a Saturday. Biscuits and gravy were delicious. North star omelette was good though I didn't realize it doesn't come with cheese automatically so will ask to include next time. Ham and cheese omelette was good as well. American fries were cooked good. Portions were the perfect size. Very reasonably priced as well.

    Nothing special. Googled breakfast food nearby and this café came up. Linda herself is not friendly -at all - but a majority of the rest of the staff are. First come first served, we waited about 15 minutes for a table as there were 10 people in front of us. Breakfast burrito was filled with meat but the grease could have been drained. I had to eat with a fork and knife. Pancakes are as big as your head and come with sausage bacon and eggs. For not being a pancake person I enjoyed the few bites I stole from my son. Coffee was good, not strong but not bitter. Overall a decent meal but nothing memorable. The group next to us had their order messed up and then found a hair in it when it finally arrived. That, coupled with Linda's grumpiness is reason enough not to make a special trip to dine here.

    What in the world is Broasted chicken?! Well, if you want to try the best fried chicken on this side of heaven, you must stop at Linda's cafe and order their broasted chicken platter. It was delicious! My husband was generous enough to let me have a bite. I ordered their breakfast skillet and it hit the spot. It gets really busy here and there is a bit of a wait but it is well worth it. I highly recommend trying this place out.

    Came here with recommendations from locals. They weren't wrong. There's a wait because it's good!!! Be prepared with your whole party to be seated. Fair because the place is small and they're trying to serve everyone. Idk ‍ what the person is talking about "not friendly staff" because everyone was wonderful. Our server was friendly and helpful. We had a party of 11 and everyone loved their food. I loved my stuffed French toast sandwich, almost like a Monte Cristo but better! Give them a try.

    Such a cute cafe with so many goods to purchase! The waitress we had was very polite and kind! I ordered the chicken tenders basket with ranch and loved it all very comforting. I ordered the caramel roll which came very hot and soft and so delicious!!

    OMG! BEST FOOD EVER. I went on a Friday and they had Country Fried Steak and it was with hashbrowns and for the appetizers we had loaded chili cheese fries and that were amazing. Their broasted chicken was phenomenal and the potato salad was extraordinarily good. I would give then 20 stars if I could but they do not give you that option. They were honestly the greatest restaurant I've ever been too. The waitress and owner are really nice and it is so clean and so cabinesque feeling. I would love to go back there and I highly recommend this amazing restaurant and tip them highly. They were hands down, the best I've ever been to. Thanks for such and amazing experience and I am definitely coming back for more. The price is so good and affordable so super excited to share this experience

    Fast quality food, especially breakfast. There's often a wait, but people are seated quickly. Enjoyed our breakfast very much. Highly recommend.

    Too small, limited seating, not much taste for breakfast- other than the over salty ham steak.

This is a place we look forward to trying every time the season changes (and definitely the place your local family/friends want gift cards to). My fiancé had the Bahn Mi, I had the Beef Braised Tacos, and we shared the pierogis. Everything was great (and we loved the selection of NA cocktails)! Perfect for a date night

Although it's a bit of a hike outside the city, still not too bad on a weekday and it was nice to get out and try something new! It seems like an up and coming area for Monticello and development nearby. We came right at 5 when the restaurant opens and got a seat in the high tops. NOTE! If you want to partake in the happy hour, you have to either sit at the bar or in the high top tables. We didn't know this and wanted their chicken wings on the happy hour menu so ended up switching tables. In addition to the wings, my husband ordered the corn bread app which was pretty good too! Wasn't a huge fan of the spicy butter it came with, but strange but the bread itself was good. The wings had a good seasoning and the house made ranch was really tasty! Surprised there were only wings and no drumsticks which I prefer and the wings themselves didn't have a whole ton of meat on them so I'd give it 3/5 on the apps I ordered the 12oz New York strip and at market price it was $62, came with broccolini and French fries. My husband got the turkey burger which he wasn't a huge fan of he said but he enjoyed the fries. My New York strip wasn't seasoned well - if at all to be honest but thankfully they had some leftover A1 from Mother's Day brunch where the bartender made some bloody Mary's so that helped. Can't say the food was a knockout but the service was really good. The bartender who was our server was conversational, great dude, and offered great suggestions. Host and folks were also really accommodating when we hopped around the restaurant so we could participate in the HH. All in all, great experience and nice place to try!

This time our family tried the 5th Avenue Minneapolis location right across from Twins Stadium. Quick tip, park in the garage facing the restaurant on the left side. It's an easy elevator ride up and the signage makes it simple. Matt was our server and did an outstanding job. Great service always makes a difference. Beverage options were excellent too, stuff for everyone, mimosas, specialty coffee drinks, and really solid drip coffee. The menu has a great balance of savory and sweet, so naturally we tried both. We had the breakfast sandwich with sausage, a BLT on a croissant, biscuits and gravy, pancakes with fruit, and a croissant-waffle fusion with lemon and sweet cream. Honestly, everything was delicious. What I appreciate most is the atmosphere. These restaurants just feel comfortable, welcoming, and easy to enjoy with family or friends. I'm excited they're coming to Maple Grove, but I'll still keep visiting the St. Paul, St. Louis Park, and Minneapolis locations too because I want to see our cities and local businesses thrive.

    Great night for a patio date and light fare. Popular local spot. And for good reason. Sorry no…read morepictures but put your imagination station to use. Ambiance is nice! Amelia, our server, was terrific! Accommodating, friendly, and welcoming. Patio was busy but she got to us! Enjoying a 1/2 price bottle of wine and appetizers. Steak bites were perfect, asked for medium rare and they delivered: tender and so good. However, the fake onion rings on the steak bites could seriously get lost, keep the sautéed onions and peppers, bechamel sauce. Also, their fries (the other app) are dangerously good... fresh cut, tender crisp. Consistently good. Served with a spicy mayo, which is so-so. Wine selection was fine... for 1/2 price bottle, can't complain. Pinot Noir, light yet delicious. Not super loud on the patio but is by a highway, yet fairly sheltered from noise. Recommend for a midweek patio date night. They have a decent dining room and bar. Live music events, look 'em up and check 'em out, y'all!

    One of the worst dining experiences I've had in a while…read more We had a reservation for 11:00 and were seated on time, but our food didn't come out until after 12:50, even though we ordered right away. The service and kitchen timing were unbelievably slow. Several tables around us were also clearly frustrated by the delays. I've honestly never waited almost two hours for food, especially for a pretty basic breakfast. When the food finally arrived, it wasn't worth the wait. Everything felt very basic and under seasoned, and half of us didn't even finish our meals. It really seemed like they were completely unprepared for brunch service. They were also already out of caramel rolls, which was disappointing. Overall, a really frustrating experience between the extreme wait time, poor execution, and lackluster food.

I walked in and saw you could either order on a large touch screen on with a person at the front. I don't mind touch screens, so I went to start my order.

There was one woman in front of me and she got her items quickly. I ordered 5 items. (See pic below) All of them were fantastic! I really do judge a place by how well they can do a croissant, and this place does them very well!! The employees were very polite but for some reason my order took almost 15 mins to fill... I watched them pull the items from the case, so I'm not sure why it took them so long to do the order. There was only one other person who ordered after me and she had a drink and a box of pastries too... she received her items first. As for the space, it is bland and feels like an old Carribou coffee.... There really wasn't anything that felt "Paris or French" here. Very bland and not very cozy. If you plan on going(the food was very good) order it to go...
