Can be a tad tricky to get…read moreto if you're not familiar, as it's located in the lower level walkway in between Parkside and the hospital. They offer a super diverse array of food, ranging from breakfast all day to traditional Asian dishes to American favorites. I've had the breakfast before (served all day) and today I opted for the Reuben, which was outstanding. Perfect meat to sauce to kraut ratio on grilled bread. Came with fries for ($9), which is a steal. Overall, I will certainly be eating more of the Asian dishes that they have here, but this is truly one of the rare places in downtown that literally has something for everyone!

Meat and eggs, we got kielbasa, was good as well though we didnt care much for the american fries, they were kinda soft and needed a little more cook time as with the english muffin which could have been a little more toasty. The inside space is a lot bigger than you would assume from the ouwell. Prices are very reasonable. Plenty of parking in the lot. Service was good as well.

I got the Farm Style Omelet with wheat toast. My friend got the Egg House Favorite with wheat toast. Both were really good. The only issue we had was that the toast was barely toast, so it was difficult to get jelly on the slices. Having let them go for another 30 seconds to a minute would have made perfect toast. The portions are generous and they do a really good job with hashbrowns. We both took half of our meals home to eat later. Service was ok, with a man taking over for whatever reason. We started out with the young lady working there. He refilled our coffee and brought out our food. He was friendly and quick. We do plan on returning again. Our visit was the Wednesday before Thanksgiving, so it could have factored into the place not being busy.

Quaint, fast, energetic place. While the food was okay and…read morethere weren't any major concerns... I could have made a better meal at home. Again, it's okay.... not bad, but since I view dining out as a treat (versus necessity), I had hoped for something a bit more tasty and special.

I've never been in the cafe, but I have ordered lunch from here a few times. The Asian salad is my…read morefavorite.Tons of crunchy veggies, topped with plump mandarin orange pieces and sprinkled with crispy noodles on top. Today, I tried it with salmon. Unfortunately, the salmon wasn't seasoned so the bland fish did nothing for the dish. A little sprinkle of salt perked it up a bit, but a bit of seasoning before hand would do wonders. Also, I though the portion of salmon was a kinda small for the upcharge. I also ordered the chicken and wild rice soup. It's chilly in my office and this soup was just what the doctor ordered. It's was hearty and filling and delicious. The portion size is only about a cup, so when I order it again, I'll be sure to order more than one. The crackers served with them were stale, so that was an unpleasant surprise. Not a deal breaker, but it might be good to double-check the expiration dates on these things. I've previously ordered the Koran rice bowl, as well. The dish itself was really good... my only complaint was that the meat was minced/shredded instead of sliced. It gave it an unusual texture, but not enough to keep me from ordering it again.

With its 5 stars & 1 dude review mentioning a French Dip, I just had to see for myself how it would rate. Freakin' 5 starts for staff right off the bat for sure! Not only did they tell me about their fancy shmansey touch screen soda/water machine, they actually walked me over and showed me the ropes first hand (maybe because I'm deaf?? Or maybe be cause they are just that awesome?!) They hand you a number to insert in the metal-post-number-holder at the table of your choice after you order and pay for your food. I swear I just sat down and got my phone out to start on my review and here comes the food before I could even log in! 5 starts for speed! Great place for Yelp peeps that have to work crazy corporate jobs with those sad short lunch breaks!! The food...if you're familiar with Crave restaurant, imagine the menu cut in 1/16th and presented deli style. Still fab only not all of the fancy items the full size version of the restaurant. I was torn between the gorgeous beet salad that was screaming "pick me! Pick me!" in the display case and the French Dip that the 1 dude review wrote about. I casually mentioned I was torn between the two and voiced my wish that I could have half of both. They said I could!!! Sigh...the gal in me that loves variety and trying multiple things was VERY pleased!

Though they have increased their prices recently for the first time in years, it is still better value than any other hospital cafeterias in the Twin Cities area. The food quality is excellent and great tasting. So good that I would come here to eat even if I didn't have to work! The menu selection is great. They have salad everyday, grill bar including some of the best fries I've ever had anywhere, burgers, hot dog, soups, various entrees, pizza, cookies and many other snacks! I love the soup and the fries and the cookies. Those are usually my go to food when it comes to value. They have so many different types of soup and they all taste great. Chicken noodle soup, chicken gumbo, cream of mushroom etc... I've tried them all. Cookies are delicious and are only $1 each. They are to die for! Yummy. Always hot and always fresh. They sell many other foods such as Chicken Tikki Masala, which I've heard was delicious. Overall, this place offers yummy hospital cafeteria food. Sad, I finished up my internship here.
