Birthday girl enjoying some fried Tempura Ice Cream
Anna N.

First time in the area and was very impressed with the food, service, and everything in between! Here's what we had: - Green curry with Tofu (10/10, made for nice leftovers the next morning) - Pineapple Curry with Chicken (perfect amount of sweet and savory) - Spinach curry with Peanut Oil and Tofu (delicious) - Pad Thai with beef (highly recommend, also great for leftovers) - free tempura fried ice cream for my best friends birthday (yummy of course) - Thai tea (VERY sweet) Our waitress was kind and helpful. She went out of her way to double check peanut contaminants for my friend who is allergic. Got seated right away and enjoyed the overall ambiance of the restaurant. I will definitely be returning!

I am a fan of Soberfish (which has a full bar for the record). Fresh ingredients, artfully prepared at a fair price. The service is consistently attentive. To top it off, the setting is charming. Never had a bad meal here. I should go more often and so should you!

Pad Thai
Tony V.

We went out of our way to eat here since the breakfast place we originally wanted to eat had a long wait. Our server was super attentive and friendly. Service overall was great. My wife's cup of water had an imprint of the previous diner which was disturbing. Starting with the sushi, it was evident that attention to detail was lacking. The rice, a fundamental element of any sushi dish, was disappointingly hard, almost to the point of being unpalatable. To make matters worst, this error was repeated not once, but twice during our meal, suggesting a systemic issue in the kitchen's preparation process. Moving on to the fried rice, one would expect a comforting blend of flavors and textures. Instead, what awaited us was a dish plagued by the same hard and unyielding rice encountered in the sushi. Frying the already tough rice only served to exacerbate the issue, resulting in a dish that was difficult to chew and ultimately unsatisfying. The Pad Thai, often a highlight of Thai cuisine, fell flat in terms of flavor and execution. Instead of the harmonious balance of sweet, savory, and tangy flavors that define this dish, we were met with an overwhelming sweetness that drowned out any semblance of complexity. Furthermore, the choice of thick and chewy noodles only added to the dish's lackluster appeal. Overall, my dining experience at Soberfish was marred by subpar ingredients, lackluster execution, and a noticeable absence of flavor. It is my hope that the establishment takes heed of these shortcomings and endeavors to rectify them, lest they risk alienating discerning diners seeking a fusion restaurant. We left the table exactly how it was presented to us, paid and left. Waitress brought boxes for us but the dishes cannot be saved.

Thai holy basil (but where is the basil?).

I just picked up, and threw out, their lunch special. I ordered Thai Holy basil, which the menu says is spicy, and is normally prepared with Thai chiles and holy basil. I was served a pile of barely cooked green peppers and onions with a few pieces of chicken and mushrooms tossed on top. The sauce was clear and tasted like cornstarch - I don't even know what they could have made it with? Thai holy basil is normally made with fish sauce, hoisin and soy. It was flavorless and it's clear that the veg and chicken were precooked and the sauce was poured on top. It definitely was not cooked from scratch in a wok. The person who took my order was nice, but I just can't with the food. It was clearly just assembled and not cooked. I definitely won't be back.

Soberfish has delicious sushi and Thai food! I ordered the salmon roll and California roll and my boyfriend ordered pad Thai. They have two lunch species, both are $14 Thai lunch special: one Thai entree and soup or salad or an appetizer. Sushi lunch special: 2 sushi rolls. Service was great - it was quick and our waiter was friendly. They only have street parking, so parking can be difficult to find sometimes. Overall rating: 10/10

Fiery beef salad
Mary Y.

Been here multiple times and it never fail to satisfied my taste bud. Before graduating from college this is a place that is close to my college ( Augsburg). Every time I come back here, the food just always taste so good. First time trying the green mussels and it was pretty good. I don't know what they put on top, but it was delicious. As for the wing, it would be great if the wing was actually well mix with the sauce, but it taste good. The wing are pretty big too! The drunken noodle was good, however i feel like there wasnt enough noodles, it had a lot of veggies. The last but not least, the fiery beef salad. That was so delicious I couldn't finish it . I had it spicy and it was pretty spicy, however it can be handle. The portion of the food was just right and the services was amazing! Overall, a place I would always come back to!

Drink list

I always enjoy going to Soberfish! It has a good menu with something for everyone, and the happy hour pricing is great. Service can be a little hit or miss, especially depending on the time of day. Typically I'll come here for sushi because it's always fresh and tasty. Recently, though, I tried the drunk fish noodles and was pleasantly surprised! All of their noodle, curry, and rice dishes have the option to add tofu, mock duck, chicken, beef, pork, shrimp, or calamari. I like the options for customization! The portion size was generous for the cost. I'll definitely return to try other non-sushi items. They've got a rotating draft list that always includes some great local brews. The cocktails are reasonably priced as well. Parking can be a challenge, especially during the winter months. There's a small, shared lot behind the building that's usually full. Plan to park on the street and walk a block or two.

Side Kick ($9). Refreshing cocktail on a hot day. Not too sweet.
Kedar D.

Soberfish is a Thai and sushi spot that serves mainstream dishes but didn't wow me in any way. The oshinko maki ($5) is vegan by default and not bad but not particularly memorable. The kanpyo ($5) is vegan by default and fine but unremarkable. The W8 Chinese broccoli ($13) is vegan by default but really bland. It's a stir-fry in a bland, clear sauce that was piled on way too much. The vegetables were drowned and flavorless as a result. The W1 Thai holy basil ($13) is vegan by default and also flavorless. There's too much sauce and the the dish didn't really feel stir-fried. It was like they steamed the vegetables and then just poured the sauce on top. The service is friendly. It's a decent space. But if you're looking for better Thai food, go to Amazing Thailand in Minneapolis or Phi Chay in St. Paul. If you want better sushi, go to Kyatchi in Minneapolis.

Sushi
Khoi N.

Thai restaurant. The sushi was decent, like any normal sushi at other places. The noodles was a lot better, the flavors are within every bite. It's classified as spicy but wasn't that spicy. The service was brief and the servers were really nice. A lot of window for light to come through, very open space.

Food was amazing and service even better. I came here for HH and it was sooooo tasty and good. It's right in my neighborhood. Convenient location and intimate spot. Great restaurant for a date night or solo dining by the sushi bar. Come visit ASAP!!!

I was in Minneapolis for a work trip and found this spot while searching for some Asian food nearby…read moreand I am SOOOO glad I did. First of all, the restaurant is super cute. It has this tropical and airy vibe with a bunch of plants everywhere. It's partially open air with indoor seating too. I sat at the bar and they had all the windows open and the whole atmosphere was just perfect. It's a Vietnamese fusion spot and apparently a James Beard Award winner which I can definitely understand after eating here. To start the bartender recommended the shrimp toast so I ordered that along with the sweet corn wontons. The shrimp toast was SO interesting!!! It was like a shrimp mousse on toast. I honestly loved it but fair warning, it was reaaaally spicy with the fresh jalapeños on top. Still so good though I pushed through. The sweet corn wontons were AMAZING. They came in this super flavorful broth that I drank by itself after. For dessert, I tried their version of mango sticky rice, which was probably one of the most interesting things I had. They don't actually use rice and instead use this jell-o??? but somehow you still get all the flavors of mango sticky rice. So different and SO delicious. My fav of the night! For drinks I tried with the Life Aquatic which was a mezcal cocktail with cucumber and it was smoky, refreshing and overall just amazing. Then I asked for a lychee martini which wasn't even on the menu but they attempted to make one for me anyway. 10/10 execution because it was also amazing! I was genuinely impressed by everything...the food, drinks, atmosphere and the service. They even gave me a little taste of their slushies to try at the end which were super tasty too. Who knows when I'll be back in Minneapolis but I genuinely would come back just to have another meal here. That's how good it was!

This is one of those places that if I lived in Minneapolis I'd be there all the time. Every time…read morethe food is prepared perfectly and there hasn't been one thing I haven't liked. The space can be a little cramped inside, but the service is great. This most recent time we ordered 6 dishes as a group of 4 and all left stuffed. I truly cannot pick a favorite, because I loved every dish.

Our waitress was extremely attentive and gave us several wonderful recommendations that guided our entire order. Everything we tried was memorable: - Basil Wings: Hands down my favorite of the small plates! The chicken came out piping hot, fresh, and perfectly crispy with great flavor. - Salmon Eggs Benedict: Beautifully poached eggs over rich, flavorful salmon patties (pan fried) gave it a nice crunch with the egg and English muffin. - Coffee Crunch French Toast: A delicious blend of sweet and coffee. The French toast is seasonal and was definitely something I would get again. It was just the right amount of sweetness. - Duck Congee: Comforting and savory. The duck meat basically fell off the bone. Overall, a top-tier dining experience with phenomenal food and warm, knowledgeable service. The vibe had a great atmosphere. Can't wait to go back!

Staff was friendly and helpful and I love that they include a little rice bite at the beginning as a palate cleanser-really makes them stand out! The Vietnamese coffee was great and I would easily recommend it-I could just drink that condensed milk it's so good. To eat one of my friends and I split the Benedict and the seasonal French toast and our other friend got the khao soi. We also got a sticky rice party just to try and some hot sauce. Recommend: -Sticky rice patty: super unique and delicious. Definitely an awesome add on -The seasonal Benedict: I believe it was a salmon cake one. This was delicious Take it or leave it: -The French toast. What happened to the og french toast?! They informed me they had switched to a milk bread of sorts and it did not do it for me the way the old French toast used to. I was so excited about it so it was kind of a let down. Overall it will be a slightly higher price point for brunch in general especially if you do any drinks or add ons but the place is as always stunning and the experience was still a really solid one

Maybe the best Thai food place in the Twin Cities metro so far, because ever since I got introduced…read moreto this place in mid-July, I have been back 4 times since then and have catered from them for my birthday gathering that happened at the end of August, so it is easy to see how impressed I was with their food. Among all the dishes I have tried, some of my favorites include the crab fried rice, the panang curry, the tom yum soup, the mango sticky rice, the masaman curry, and the chicken wings. Particularly, the crab fried rice got my attention because it was significantly more expensive than the other fried rice dishes, so I knew there was a reason for that and ordered the dish. It was super flavorful and the real crab meat including the claws were evident, and it wasn't clumpy at all, indicating that they used rice that was at least a day old. The panang curry was so savory that the ground peanuts just elevated the flavor and gave it that much creaminess texture. The masaman had a good amount of onions, tomatoes, potatoes, and roasted peanuts, and offered a comprehensively pleasant experience. The mango sticky rice was as good as that dish itself could be, because the dessert creation was simply fire. And finally, the chicken wings had incredibly soft meat and was seasoned inside out which made them really tasty. I would say the only dishes I didn't enjoy as much was the pad see yew which I thought had too much soy sauce because it was a bit salty. I also thought the pad thai didn't have enough tamarind and a bit too much palm sugar, but honestly that's with Thai food here in the United States in general. Regardless, the food here is just too good and this establishment may have just become my go-to spot for Thai food within the metro if I am to hang out with my friends over Thai food. I must also mention that the space is really nice because it bright and has many tables which makes it easy to hang out with friends and chat here, and I thoroughly love that.

Honestly, haven't had a bad dish! Make sure you specify the spice level you want when ordering. We typically order for pickup, but have eaten in the restaurant a couple times. Service and atmosphere are fine. But pickup is super convenient for a yummy meal at home and prices are very reasonable. Portion sizes are enough for leftovers the next day. One of my local favorites and will definitely keep coming back.
