    Sausage chili soup that came with my sandwich.
    Steve T.

    This place is easy. I've gone in and ordered. I've called in my orders. Every time it's amazing. My go to is the chicken wrap. That Sammy sauce is delish. I then add some banana peppers and I am good to go. But the desserts! Wow. Sooooo good. The last one I had was a apple crumble cheesecake. Why haven't I had this before? Anywhere???? They also have a rotating soup choice. Today as of this review, it's a shrimp gumbo. The place is clean, bright and airy. If you haven't been, you gotta go.

    I really enjoyed the breakfast here. I also got a chai tea which was amazing. The restaurant was very clean. The service was amazing . I will definitely be back .

    Amazing pretty much sums it up! I stopped in during lunchtime and Mrs. Kimberly and crew were busy whipping up a 144 sandwich TakeOut order along with multiple online orders. Not only did they provide EXCELLENT customer service they also were prompt in helping all the walk in customers as well! I had the Turkey Club, it was amazing. I seen a salad and wrap that someone ordered that looked amazing. The soup portions are HUGE and come with house made croutons that are ALSO huge and delicious! Definitely check out Sammys friendly staff and awesome atmosphere!

    Breakfast sandwich Egg and Cheese with Meat on Garlic Toast
    Ashleigh J.

    I tried Sammy's today and enjoyed it! I got the breakfast sandwich with pastrami on garlic toast, a latte and a slice of their sweet potato pie. The latte and the sweet potato pie weren't great, but the sandwich was really good. I'm excited to go back and try their lunch sandwiches. The staff was also kind and helped me choose my sandwich with it being my first time. Your order may take 10-15 minutes if they are busy, there was one cook and one person working the register at the time that I came (around 1pm). I suggest trying Sammy's if you'd like some flavorful breakfast/lunch on the go--but maybe not if you're in a rush. Their magic may take a lil time, it's a neighborhood gem. There's lots of construction happening all around this restaurant during the day so I ended up parking in the large parking lots across the street and walking over, it was easier to pull out that way too.

    While staying at the Royal Sonesta hotel for a conference, I dined at the Wood + Paddle Eatery two…read moretimes during my stay. Wood + Paddle is located inside of the Royal, it's their hotel restaurant. On my first night in Minneapolis, I'd arrived to the hotel for check-in around dinner time. Not sure where to go and tired from the flight, I headed down to the lobby and walked over. When I asked if I could get a table for 1, she asked me if I would be comfortable with eating at the bar. It was a Sunday night, so I think she wanted to reserve tables for parties of two or more. I was fine with it, but I noticed there were quite a few empty tables. A few days later, I had lunch with a Colleague here. We got seated at a table, and the service was really good. Our waiter was attentive and made sure we kept our lunch within our time requirements so we could get back to the conference without issue. The food was really good. I tried to order or sample local or MN specialties during my trip. Below are the menu items that I tried: - Bison Burger with Fries - State Fair Cheese Curds (w/ house made, smoked ketchup) - Pork Chop (w/ a Norwegian inspired sauce) - Habanero Wings

    Food came out fairly quick after ordering, but it wasn't too busy during 5:30-6pm on a weekday…read more You can customize the fries and how well the patty is done. Bison burger patty had a charred taste. The garlic dry rub wings have a good salt and dryness to them. The flourless chocolate torte is a satisfying dessert. Rich, creamy, tangy, and indulgent. I feel like they are missing out on a happy hour menu.

    A couple weeks ago, I was at the Government Center around lunch time, and was excited to be able to…read moretry some food trucks! 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.

    Tried Scratch out for lunch and LOVED it! Great addition to the Food Truck industry in Minneapolis!…read moreThe chef incorporates an asian taste to his food. 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!
