    I wanted to try this place for drinks and food for some time! We unfortunately came after dinner so we only tried their drinks. But they had very yummy twists on classic cocktails, using one of my favorite Japanese gin. I enjoyed both cocktails immensely! It was also a fun treat to try the frozen beer on draft which is the only place in Minnesota where you could try this beer. The food smelled incredible and I will definitely be back to try some of our hand rolls!

    I met up with my friend for our monthly dinner. I saw this restaurant on Instagram and had to come try it. Reservations recommended here, they do get busy on weekends. Small restaurant but I can tell they utilize the space. They even have a patio for warmer months. Server was great, he explained about the dishes on the menu and gave recommendations.

    This was the 3 hand roll meal combo. Such a perfect meal for a totally reasonable price! Includes rename, a really great salad AND miso soup

    George & The Dragon - Victoria Salad and Caprese Toastie made for a perfect dinner!

    George & The Dragon is a super cool restaurant that my hubby and I tried for a double date night…read morewith our friends. We came on a Monday night at 6:15pm. This place does get busy so definitely keep that in mind. Luckily I made reservations ahead of time so we had a table waiting for us, otherwise we would have been put on a waiting list since it's a small space. They put us in a corner booth which was nice and spacious enough for 4 people so I'd definitely recommend asking for a booth verse a table if you're planning to come with a larger group. The servers are all very friendly and helpful. I appreciated their attentiveness and sharing what they like best, especially for what's in season based on the time of year. The menu has quite a bit of variety too which is sometimes unexpected when you come to a pub-style location. For appetizers we got Onion Ring and Fried Pickles. They were both really good and served with dipping sauces. Definitely both shareable items so if you're in a group they'd be great options! My entree I chose the Wild Alaskan Sockeye Salmon served with lemon soy marinade, creamy cucumbers, and jasmine rice -- it was SO good!! I loved the creaminess of the cucumbers especially with the rice and than the lemon soy marinade was just a unique touch to the salmon. Toned the flavors down without overpowering acidity. And the salmon was so dreamy, a beautiful pink color that you just knew it wasn't a farm raised salmon. Plus the portion was very generous!! I'd definitely recommend the Alaskan Sockeye Salmon to anyone interested in visiting here. #eatwildsavewild The only negatives (which are more so just knowledge bombs for you): * Restaurant is VERY loud. It's hard to hear because it is one small room that everyone plus the bar is in. I wished I would have took a picture to show what I mean. Just know that if it's an intimate setting you're looking for this is not the place. So be prepared to talk loudly over the loudness and ask "excuse me?" or "repeat that" many times throughout your visit because you're not going to hear everything. * Timed eating. Because this place is a hit with limited seating, once you get a table and complete your meal/payment you'll kindly be asked to leave so that they can clean up and open the table to next in line. Totally get that and am not put off by this at all, but I could see how it could catch some folks off guard especially if you are out for a meal with folks you may not see frequently-- so just keep that in mind. This is not the place to sit and talk post meal. * Parking is limited. Be prepared to walk a few blocks as the road parking in front of the business is pretty limited especially with the other stores and restaurants in the area. Regardless of those few bullets I highly recommend folks visit George & The Dragon. It's a really cool spot and the food was great! Plus theirs a malt shop right next door that looks yummy too, so definitely worth visiting and getting malts after for dessert.

Ambiance is perfect I feel for a family place, not over the top but comfortable? Like your visiting at a friend's house? I don't know- What we especially liked was the smaller amount of "chips" just enough not too much not too little! Portions just right.

    First time trying out this place. Wooden Ship is a very small niche brewery situated in the middle…read moreof residential white picket fence heaven, if you're into that sort of thing. In fact a neighbor across from the patio was literally painting his white picket fence! So, it's a unique setup for a mpls brewery taproom from the start. I walked in and was assaulted by a sickeningly sweet smell. Not sure if that's them brewing up their beet beer (beet beer--WHY?!) We both ordered the Saison. It had decent belgian notes but it was half-flat and a little sweet for my taste. It's nice they have a patio but it's beset by constant traffic from 44th St on one side and a parking lot with porta pottys on the other. Not exactly getting any fresh air. Moreover, the seating at picnic tables and high tops with cheap un-cushioned bar stools felt pretty half assed but that went along with the overall theme. They allow outside food and had a food truck operating when we went there which was a plus. Ultimately neither one of us were thrilled with our first tap so we bailed. Can't speak on the entire tap line but unlikely we will come back unless our friends ask us to. So almost nearly there in every respect but not quite. 3.75/5 rounding up to 4.

When they were open for breakfast they had the best avocado toast in town. Last night the sweet potato dumpling appetizer, the smokehouse chili, the Waterbury salad, and the salted caramel dacquois were all great. The decor is elegant without being stuffy, and the windows look over Lake Bde Maka Ska. I can go there when I am feeling casual or when I want something special. The service has always been top-notch: knowledgeable about the food and drinks, attentive, friendly without being too friendly.

    Wow!!! I saw an online recommendation for the breakfast burrito from Waterbury so I picked it up…read morefor brunch before a walk around the lake and immediately texted probably half my contacts list that they need to go get it immediately!! This breakfast burrito is packed full of everything you could ever want including wagyu steak (instead of the traditional bacon or sausage, so it's not greasy at all), avocado, eggs, potatoes, and cheese. It even came with a side salad and salsa to dip it in! For $15-16 it was a large portion and easily was 2 meals. I ordered online for pickup and it was ready quickly at the counter but the restaurant also looked cute inside so I would be interested in stopping in for a meal sometime too! They also have a coffee bar (pistachio latte was good) and free indoor parking for restaurant customers).
