I didn't have a reservation and i could sit at the bar, but the server seeing it was just me, took me in to the bar area where there were some single high chair tables. The places is hopping and I have a feeling this is always the case so service can be a bit slow. I tried a local beer and then decided on a good old fashioned burger, but was able to subtitute my fries with mashed potatoes. Once the food was ordered it came out fairly quickly. Burger was awesome. I just didn't see condiments on the table, but I'm rather a plain jane for food, unless I had ordered the fries. I was wavering on dessert but then I saw the giant peanut butter cup filled with marshmallow fluff, so it was on. I was planning to come back to try the ricotta pancakes and bring back some peanut butter cups for my staff, but time got away from me. So if y'all are reading this review, is there a way I can get these shipped :) If in Minneapolis again will definitley be hitting this spot up again.

Of course it would include a pickle. My Sid Hartman's Favorite Pastrami Sandwich with added Cheddar Cheese (they don't have American Cheese), was really good on a very nice caraway rye bread. I wasn't crazy about the Potato Salad, but it was ok. Oh, and the pickle was good. Would definitely stop in again if downtown for lunch.

A buddy of mine and I both ordered an Excelsior hazy IPA. delish...Our server was super nice and even took a picture of our group. I split a bison burger with sweet potato fries and a bison pizza with one of my friends. We ordered the fried sunnies for the table to start off with and my other friends got the chicken Caesar salad and wings and roasted brussel sprouts. The sunnies were awesome with a flavorful dipping sauce and the fishiness was just right. SCORE! The burger was juicy and had some kind of sweet chutney on it and the bun was perfect and the pizza had lots of meat and cheese on it, it was perfect. They give you a bunch of fries and they are not soggy like a lot of sweet potato fries are. I asked for a side of mustard and it became Heaven....So good! My friend's salad was huge and everyone loved their meal. The space was beautifully decorated with a large bar area and an open kitchen, where you could see the cooks applying their wares. Great food with lots of laughs and service equals five stars.

Everything is on a chalkboard and prices may or may not end up being what you expect. $22 for a lunch box is highway robbery in my book. Got a Falafel Lunch Box and the salad was the best part; mainly because of all the oil. The falafel (4 small) was pretty bad. Texture and (I assume) taste of a dish sponge. I assume they come frozen from a wholesaler. The hummus (~4Tbsp) was fine, but nothing to write home about. The dolma were also "ok". Not really any flavor other than oil. The pita was also standard packaged type. If this box was $11-12 I would be thrilled, but charging 2x that is criminal. Maybe the shawarma is worth it, but I don't eat much meat so I don't think I'll be back.

However, I realized that it was early November, and some of the usual players were done for the season. As I was about to admit defeat and grab something from Panera, I see Scratch Food Truck and I was saved :) They have a nice selection of sandwiches; I was heavily debating between the pork & shrimp patty, the sesame beef, and the fried chicken. The jalapeno slaw on the fried chicken sandwich won me over in the end, though. The fried chicken sandwich comes on a long bun, and is absolutely delicious. The slaw is spicy and tangy, and paired with the crisp fried chicken and mayonnaise, it makes for a very excellent sandwich. They make their own chips here, too, and you get a very generous portion with your sandwich. I'll definitely be coming back here.

There's a selection of sandwiches and wraps. I went there yesterday and they had rolls on the menu! Two of us ordered the Pork/Shrimp sandwich, and another the sesame beef. The sandwiches are definitely large in size, perfect for any large appetite. Comes with tasty fried chips....not sure what the oil used was but very tasty! Everything is made to order, but still a quick turnaround! The pork/shrimp sandwich came with (what I believe) a tasty mango-type slaw and 'mystery' sauce that really created a 'light' asian taste to it. Not heavy at all, regardless of the size of the sandwich! All of us enjoyed our lunch and plan on coming back for more!

I got the bulgogi sandwich, a whole one, of course. Go big or go home. A whole sandwich was only $6, and is definitely a full meal. This was some of the best bulgogi meat I've ever had. A little sweet, a little sour, and a little spicy. And A LOT of it. Even the bread was great! And it didn't get soggy at all, even when I saved half of my sandwich for the inevitable 3pm snack attack. I'm in my best journal article writing mode when I'm continuously eating, you know. They do not skimp on the meat in your sandwich here, so fear not hungry gents and ladies of downtown Minneapolis. This is one of my favorite food carts (which I always seem to say) and a top notch spot to get your hangriness cured. If you have never experienced being hangry, it is the unfortunate combination of very hungry and becoming increasingly angry as a result.
