I love this little gem in my hometown! I visit Belle Plaine 2-5 times a year, and we almost always…read moremake a stop here. On my last visit in June, my mom and I split the lobster pasta and the summer strawberry salad, and both were absolutely delicious. They also have a great wine selection, which can be hard to find locally. I really hope this restaurant continues to thrive in such a small town. It offers unique, high-quality food, kind and attentive service, and is always a highlight of my trips home. I highly recommend it!

This is a great bistro. The calamari are lightly breaded with great lemon flavor. I was worried it…read moremight have too much shrimp but it was very much calamari. I will be craving this calamari! We have tried various birria tortas. The bread is wonderful. Nice and soft. The meat if tender, flavorful, and plentiful! The consommé is flavorful, not the best, but very good. Also enjoyed the house white wine. It was a prior McDonald's and the ambience could be improved. My impression could be a little negative because two women were on a FaceTime with a friend on speaker and screaming into the phone. Very annoying but obviously nothing to take away from the great food.

We arrived as soon as they opened on a Sunday & we were immediately impressed with the sporty yet warm atmosphere. We ordered the Chicken Ranch Wrap with Chive fries & a Reuben with Onion rings. Everything was absolutely outstanding, in fact I'd rate both sandwiches as top 5 all time, possibly top 3. Our Bartender/server, Kay, was quite friendly & did a great job of taking care of us. Johans is quite a gem & we are excited to go back soon.

The food and service at Suzette's would easily warrant five-plus stars, so let's start with that…read more I had the special which was broiled walleye. The sauce MADE the dish--so tasty. The Caesar salad was also delicious. My wife had the Chilean sea bass, which had a similar sauce, and she loved it; and she is a real fan of this fish. The creme brulee desert was excellent, with a great glass-like crust over delicious custard. My only complaint would be that the custard was very thin, I would have appreciated a little deeper custard layer. Our server was super helpful with good suggestions and honest information. And she was very personable as well. So why not four stars? The place looks like a diner! For such elegant, delicious food to be served in a place with blue vinyl booths and menus on the table under acrylic is a shame.

I can't really speak to the service on those visits since we did takeout, but the summer salad and goat cheese toasts were both excellent. It's so nice to have fresh, unique food like this available in a small-town area. I'll definitely be back the next time I'm in town!

Best Asian food in Belle Plaine!!…read more Discovered this gem a couple months back with my boyfriend who lives in town and we get it once a week now! My favorites are the barbecue pork bahn mi (it's so good) and the chicken fried rice! Ruben sandwich is also very good. Small business right in downtown and owned by a kind woman who is always there and cooks everything herself to order. Has seating room but we typically take to go. Bathroom is clean and tidy. But seriously try the bahn mi!!! It comes w the delicious pork, sliced cucumber and jalapeños, yummy garlic Mayo on a very crisp bun and a side of pickled carrot/radish that is amazing on the sandwich!! She also has siracha and chili oil self serve that are great additions.

Went here for a spontaneous happy hour on a Wednesday afternoon and arrived just in time to put in…read morea happy hour order. This is a newer spot in Excelsior that opened summer 2025. Here's my review of the food we ordered: Cocktail of the hour - aka "Golden Hour" - 8.5/10 Reminded me of mulled cider, notes of honey, very refreshing Pork Belly Steam Buns - 8.1/10 Nice texture, very tender and flavorful Mini Banh Mi - 7/10 Not bad, would have preferred the more traditional pork filling Crispy Chicken- 8.7/10 This really surprised me, from appearance the chicken didn't look that special but it was well seasoned and the sweet chili glaze really stole the show and elevated this dish! Mirabelle Smash Burger - 8.9/10 I'm a sucker for smash burgers and this one did not disappoint. Nice crispy bun and a special mustard sauce that we enjoyed and a different flavor I don't usually have on my burger Sticky Ribs - 5/10 Unfortunately these were quite dry and was comparing to sticky ribs I had last week at CoV that were fall off the bone Overall good spot, service, atmosphere, and would be happy to return. Prices were also great for happy hour.

I wanted to like this place, I really did. But unless they get a different chef in the kitchen,…read morethis place is not going to make it.... Let's start with the positives! The location! Very close to the lake(walking distance) There is a free parking ramp right behind the building. The decor of this place is cute! The details seem like they were well thought out! It feels upscale and cozy! I saw a video of this place and that was what originally drew me in! The seating here is also comfortable and not over crowded. Our server was ok. I saw so many raves about the "amazing service." She did refill our water glasses, which was good because I needed it with the salty steak! Obviously the most important piece is the food. We started with the popovers. The taste was fine but the texture was almost over done. The honey butter was lacking honey flavor. Cinnamon would have really elevated the butter! I got the steak frites and my sister got the spaghetti. My fries were average. The steak was cooked to a perfect medium all the way through! I was impressed. However, it was drowning in a VERY salty sauce! I had push a lot of it off. This should be served on the side, not covering the whole steak. My sister got the spaghetti, which our waitress explained was not a regular spaghetti. I feel she has probably had to do that multiple times and honestly, it should just be renamed. It's confusing for the customer. My sister did say she enjoyed the dish and that the shrimp was ere done well. For dessert I got "Aunties iced latte" which is their version of like an espresso martini. It was just ok. Would not get again. We got the carrot cake which was good!! But then they ruined it by putting fake whipped cream.... This is supposed to be a higher end restaurant and that made the dessert feel so cheap. We also got the creme brûlée. DO NOT ORDER THAT! It is an absolute waste of money! The sugar top was so thick we couldn't eat it! The dessert had the consistency of scrambled eggs, not a smooth custard. The taste seemed ok, but whoever made this does not know what they are doing! Overall, the food was not memorable and a lot of it was done poorly. There are definitely better restaurants in the area.
