The food was great (Care Bear, Emma, bucatini, milk and cookies). The drinks were A+ (espresso martini, manhattan). But the VIBE and the service were exceptional. We had a 45 minute wait but the host was calm and smooth in a way I've never experienced before. He offered to start us with drinks or text when the table was ready. We killed the time in a nearby art studio. Our server was attentive, friendly, helpful. The place was busy but it never felt hectic. The kids (8, 10) chatted with staff about how bucatini is made and were treated so respectfully. When we left, my son asked if we could go there every Friday. I said I should leave a review and my daughter told me to say that Mothership "makes you feel loved." What a great neighborhood restaurant!

I've had a lot of wood-fired pizza and I think what stands out well on these pizzas is the dough. It has a wonderful chewy texture. Great cheese blend too. We got the pepperoni, a sausage (which was a little different and more earthly than Italian sausage I am accustomed to, but still very tasty), and the Funghi which had a lemony-tang to it. The Caesar salad was delicious. Very delicate, not in-your-face; I loved that. I love baba ganoush so I hope to try that if we go back - we didn't want to fill up on too much bread before the pizza! But the dip apps are a great idea since they have an oven and bread making going on anyway. The drinks were delicious and refreshing. They have a well-planned menu of both alcoholic and nonalcoholic creations. Many of them veer toward the spritz and refreshing cocktail recipes. I'm a sucker for limoncello and bubbly so I went right for the Capri Spritz, then sampled the Malena (like a margarita). I enjoyed both but the alcohol content for these cocktails was very low, particularly the first. Many restaurants do this now and I don't know if low alcohol is a current trend people prefer or if it is really just a cost thing. Not saying I need to get sloppy at dinner out or anything, it's just you always pay a mark-up for alcohol. I would definitely return, the food is good and it's a chill and relaxing place to be.

The sparkling water based one was more up my alley though, since I rarely crave soda but love fruity drinks. The team was helpful in adjusting the amount of syrup in the drinks since I was worried they'd be too sweet, but now that I've tried it, I feel like the regular sweetness level would still be great.

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).

The place was packed, but a kind gentlemen moved over so we could have two seats at the classy bar. With service from the empathetic Patrick and the charming Alicia, we felt at home even though we had just moved to Minneapolis. Waterbury's menu has an array of interesting choices. My spouse and I split a Caesar Salad. She ordered the Crispy Tuna Tacos which are always fantastic. I devoured the Blackened Shrimp. The dish had a piquancy that added the perfect amount of kick. I loved it. With jazz on Wednesday evenings and unique menu specials, the Waterbury will grow sick of my face. It's a great restaurant.

I wasn't overly impressed but it was enjoyable and I appreciated what appeared to be an intentionally crafted meal. I didn't try the fries or soft serve so that's next time! I appreciated the salad on the menu and had that too! SERVICE: cool concept-- order at counter, then you get seated. It was efficient but far better than just a "fast food pickup" or traditional counter service restaurant. I also have to say-- efficiency was great. The line was long but was helped quick! PARKING: always hard in Linden Hill. Street parking in neighborhood nearby is the best. Plan for a 5 min walk. AMBIANCE: far better than a typical counter service restaurant but not quite a dine in restaurant feel. Still, I'd bring friends even if I wanted a dine in restaurant because they've done a good job at this concept.

It's kind of amusing this is called LITT when it's so dark inside; yeah, I know they mean the other kind of lit! They have many choices for getting to that, local beers and other beverages on tap and I spotted some THC drinks that were not on the menu. The general darkness is perfect for the massive array of pinball machines (they take quarters!) and also sets off the Halloween decorations. The booths are also sparkly copper colored so that makes them stand out. Good quality bar food all around, most of our party got some kind of sandwich and fries, so I made sure to steal a fry which was nice and crisp. My healthier eating son thought they were a bit too salty, the others didn't notice. I got a half order of nachos which was plenty! It's probably better to share these no matter which size you get. Nice fresh toppings and just a mild sinus clearing effect. I finished them later that night, didn't quite go as far as licking the queso off the paper, but it crossed my mind.

The holiday pop-up was definitely worth a visit, but I don't think I would go out of my way to dine here for the normal menu. From the normal menu, the Ultimate burger was good but not outstanding. The truffle fries were crispy and the truffle flavor was not overpowering. The milkshake was creamy and not too sweet. The best bite was the house salad-- the crispy lil bacon and almond bits were a great texture contrast and the sherry vinaigrette was light. From the Red Nose Room menu, the Cranberry Spritzer mocktail was sweet and tart. I would've liked a little more dilution. The Cheese Fondue was fun for the novelty, but the flavor was a little bland and the fondue could've been more warm.
