What I support for this establishment is less about its food but more about its message and the way…read moreit serves communities. Ever since 2020, the climate surrounding the George Floyd Square has changed dramatically, and this establishment has become an even stronger integral part of the community as the square itself had represented how the community thrives with its people. A lot of respect for the establishment from that perspective. In terms of food, I would say the soul food, which contained mostly sides, were the main highlight for me. The mac & cheese was salty enough. The fries were solid in a "you can't really go wrong with it" type of way. The candied yams had enough sweetness. The collard greens could taste better but standards must be lower when they're not homemade. I also enjoyed the catfish fillets as they were fried to preserve enough hotness and softness. A lot of what they served, they made on the spot, which was what may be causing longer wait for some. Meat-wise, a lot of items could use further improvement because they were too dry, such as the smoked wings and the beef brisket. The wings were dry to the point that they condensed and got extremely salty. The brisket relied a lot on the sauce and the existing fat on the meat for juiciness while the meat itself didn't have a lot of flavor or juice. As for the ribs, they had some seasoning, and tasted just fine, and weren't as dry. But I have had ribs in Texan barbeque places before and knew what "seasoned" ribs were like and therefore concluded that the ribs here were not spectacular. With all that said, however, I still will return here as often as I can because I love supporting this business. The person serving me was very hospitable and patient. I still got some pretty solid barbeque even if it's not Texas. Besides, outside just the barbeque food, the soul food was solid, like I had mentioned above.

The amount of pulled pork they give you is enough for 2 sandwiches. Don't even get me started on their twice baked potato. I dream of them sometimes. Given that I live over 30 minutes away they go out of the way to separate everything so once I'm home I don't have a soggy mess. The staff is incredibly nice. Every time I go they accommodate my request for buns on the side. I'm always offered a soda while I wait for my food. Their spicy bbq sauce is delicious and has a bit of heat to it.

Their happy hour prices are perfect, portion size is just what I am looking for, service is quick, friendly, there's lots of seating, and mostly importantly, the food is delicious!! Today I just got a HH slider ($5) and fries ($4) and it was delightful. The pulled pork is super well marinated, has just enough coleslaw on top to not overpower the meat, and the crispy fried onions add a nice crunch. Equally I was shocked by how much I liked the fries- shoestring with a perfect amount of salt and crunch to my likeness!! I'm sure the full size portions are good as well, but the happy hour prices can't be beat.

While MN has already been won, (thus the lazy count) we still love trying new spots & looking for our next new favorite! We opted for the sliders to split and all 3 varieties were good. I love that the chicken was schnitzel style. We also added the slaw for $5 cuz i needed some roughage & it was pretty good. The first beer chosen, in the usual for my hubby, ran out mid-pour. It was his favorite of the 3. I was partial to my hefe & he liked his IPA 2nd best. All 3 beers were good or better. The space large, likely to accommodate the Target Field crowds but it was mighty quiet when we got there, between lunch & dinner and service was very attentive. All in all, a very solid stop.

The inside has an elevated neighborhood bar vibe, and their outdoor "Pawtio" is such a fun touch--they even have a dog menu! On top of that, the service has been excellent every time. Everyone who works there is welcoming, friendly, and attentive, which makes the experience even better. The food is just as impressive, with a great variety of options. This visit, our group started with the Brussels sprouts, then ordered the Wednesday "Whole Damn Bird" special, the Bourbon Peach & Steak Salad, and the Thai Basil Bowl. Every dish was delicious, and I'd happily order any of them again. Overall, another fantastic meal. I can't wait to come back to check out their brunch and lunch menus!

However, the menu and approach varies by restaurant, so it is by no means a cookie-cutter operation. The Block is an attractive location that includes a restaurant, bar area, and a special outside area for people who want to bring their dogs. (Yes, there is an extensive dog menu, which was not tasted for the purposes of this review -- well, not tasted at all.) I had the Blackened Salmon ($25), which was very attractively presented on a bed of tomatoes, black beans, cucumbers, corn salsa, and an aioli sauce. The salmon was moist and flaky. My wife had the Boasted Chicken Sandwich $17.25 . The sandwich comes with coleslaw, and house pickles on a well-made roll. on a hamburger roll.

I split a chicken plate and the vegan bowl (plus a side of yuca) with my partner. I can't eat dairy, and it was easy finding items that fit my needs. The vegan bowl was to die for, I loved the mix of curry and pineapple (the best fruit, BTW), it all came together so well. The chicken plate as good too, especially the plantains, the rice and beans, and the sauce. The fried yuca was great too! Our server was great, super attentive. Prices are mid-range, it's not cheap, but the food is worth it. They have a small patio and a larger indoor dining room. All in all, a great spot in NE Minneapolis!

We sat outside on the patio and it had great ambiance with multi-colored string lights overhead. I had the chicken in gravy and he had the catfish sandwich and they were both phenomenal. We also had a side of grits which were great too. The server was very friendly and answered all of our questions. You are supposed to order on the QR code outside which is the only thing I would change because I think it's much quicker and easier to just order with your server. It took more of his time for me to order using the QR code because I had to ask him several questions about how to do it. But aside from that I loved this restaurant and will definitely be back soon!
