    Stopped in for some dinner while in the area to try somewhere new. The aesthetics were pretty cool, and it definitely gave off local gathering place vibes. Everyone was chatting and seemed familiar it's each other. Such a positive atmosphere! The food was tasty and had generous potions for the burger and fries. It did take a while for it to come out though. The service was otherwise friendly and prompt. Would stop in again.

    The Royal Jam burger with fries

    What a great neighborhood spot! It seemed like almost everyone knew each other in here which made for a fun vibe. I sat at the bar and ordered a burger. The service was excellent, friendly and efficient. Especially for how they catered to the regulars, I still was not overlooked. Nice. The burger was amazing! The bacon fig jam with the cambozola cheese was an excellent pairing and elevated the burger well. The fries were fantastic. I kept thinking I'm full, I need to go, and I'd pop another fry in my mouth. Addicting! Definitely want to come back to try more items off of their menu. Trying to figure out ways to head to that part of town now.

    I love lowbrow. The one thing I wish it had right off the bat is a bigger parking lot/space. Lowbrow is street parking and sometimes I have to park at least a block away. Not far at all but just letting y'all know. They don't have a button for the doors to open automatically. The restaurant is typically bustling with some outdoor seating options when the weather is nice. They have gender neutral accessible bathrooms. I've eaten dinner here and I like their dinner. However, I LOVE eating brunch at lowbrow. I get the truck stop sandwich with vegan patties and a side salad. It's delicious and filling. Their deviled eggs are yummy, and their pancakes are to die for. I get one as dessert and split it. & you can never go wrong with Peace coffee. I docked off a star due to parking and because it could be more accessible outside and inside the restaurant. Like if I could do a 3.5 I would. However, the food overall especially the brunch is 5/5.

    The Lowbrow Reuben with tempeh ($15.25). Tempeh, sauerkraut, and swiss cheese, with a side of Thousand Island dressing; with side salad.

    One of my new favorite breakfast places in town! A nice cozy but still hip brunch ambiance, will definitely be back for dinner sometime too. Plenty of street parking, plus single-stall bathrooms! I started out with a peach iced tea ($3.25)--I think this may be one of the first places I've found with an unsweetened fruit tea before, which was so refreshing and had just enough peach essence to have flavor to it without feeling overpowering or artificial! I got the jalapeño hash ($15.25) with bacon added (+$3) and the eggs scrambled, at the recommendation of our server--normally I'm usually an over-easy enjoyer myself but scrambled was totally the right recommendation for this since the sour cream made it plenty sauce anyway! Great flavors, and the cooked jalapeño was DELICIOUS. I also got a single raspberry pancake ($5.75) on the side, which was also perfect--not too sweet or moist, with the perfect amount of fruit inside. Even though the food was great, the best part of this for me was our server Dominic--when I had no clue what to order, he recommended that hash (with customizations) with a QUICKNESS (after making sure I was a spicy/savory enjoyer first), and I literally never had to ask for an iced tea refill--normally, I feel annoying asking beyond the first refill, but he was on TOP of it, even with the place being as busy as it was! Loved the food here, and will be back quite soon to try any of the dozen menu items I was torn between today.

    The Fire Breather Burger

    Me and my boys love The Lowbrow. They' think the best kids Cheeseburger is here so there's that! Today I got The Fire Breather which wasn't my favorite I've had, but still tasty. I'd recommend the Americana or Royal Jam burgers. Service is always good. Almost too good. The waters are always refilled frequently, and staff make sure to check in. Overall nice bar feel and neighborhood spot to stop in and give a go.

    Some friends and I came here after a yoga class because we wanted to hang out longer, and it was a great choice! We were in between meals, but it was the weekend so still had a pretty steady lunch crew inside. We opted to get snacky things to share, like fries and fried pickles. All were great and easy shareables. I got a root beer float as well which hit the spot. They offer burgers, soups, salads, and sandwiches - and even have a dog treat menu item. Our service was personable and friendly, and we were well attended to. The ambiance inside feels like a classic neighborhood joint and I loved that!

    Great burgers and fries! Lovely neighborhood joint with creative weekly specials. Such cute and inviting, casual decor with warm and friendly service. I hope to come back soon for their Happy Hour deals! Don't skip on the skin-on FRIES! They are delicious. Burger of the Month: Niman Ranch Beef with sautéed honey crisp apples, bacon, maple mustard sauce, and Gruyère cheese.

    Tempeh reuben
    Greg W.

    This is a nice, small neighborhood bar with a surprisingly great vegetarian menu for a burger-centric place. It's a small dining room and only a couple sidewalk tables so they fill up pretty quick. The service was good but I suspect they were understaffed since it took a bit between visits. Went for their date night special and it's a decent deal if you were going to order 2 beers and a dessert anyway. Normally I wouldn't get a beer or dessert so it ended up being pricier than our normal dinner. The tempeh Reuben was decent, and I'm just happy to find a meat-substitute Reuben since they're pretty rare. I love tempeh but this patty was kind of bland and the kraut didn't have much kick to it. Overall it was ok but I don't think I'd pay that price for it again without some punchier flavors. Tofu sticks are good but not strongly flavored. The bbq sauce is necessary. Book Club has better happy hour ones for $5. The peanut butter pie was insanely rich, but tasty. Pro tip: they serve it straight from the fridge so it's too cold. Give it 5 minutes to soften up and that PB flavor will pop. Also recommend sprinkling a pinch of salt on top. Overall it's an ok spot for post work beer and I wouldn't be upset about going back. Great if you live nearby but probably wouldn't make it a top choice.

    My wife really enjoyed their chicken salad burger. It looked tasty. My American Burger was okay. I guess I expected than more flavorful, me was a bit bland. Fries were a bit over cooked and bland too. They were okay. Service was great, friendly and quick --concise. The environment was cool and trendy and artsy but with the right feel, not over doing it.

    Juicy goodness.

The restaurant is quite large and super cute. We were greeted and seated right away. The walls have fun little things written in chalk and it is very bright and cheery inside. We received the menu and waited a bit before our order was taken. We did not need to wait long for our food to arrive. My daughter and I ordered the same thing with slight variations--Two Eggs, Potatoes, and Toast. I chose the Hen Potatoes which were amazing! Tender on the inside and slightly crisp on the outside--not greasy at all. My daughter had the hash browns, which were just as good--not greasy, but perfectly crisp and flavorful. The seven grain toast and jam were great and our scrambled eggs were cooked just how we like. My daughter also ordered a fruit cup, which was filled with a bigger variety of fruit than she expected and she loved it. I ordered a side of bacon and it was delicious. While the food wowed us, our service was just okay. She was polite enough, but did not check on us until we were well into our meal. Thankfully, we didn't need anything. Our check and my payment were dealt with promptly, which we appreciated. We also ordered a caramel roll to go and were very glad we did. Super tasty and not overly sweet. If you are in the area, stop in. You will not regret it. The prices are higher, but it is worth every penny. We will definitely be returning when we are in the area.

Light and tasty and they have "MN maple" which was delicious. I will come back again and try a Mexican breakfast burrito. I feel like that is going to be my go to. Counter service was excellent.

I recommend spending money at Porzana, Bar La Grassa, Bellecour... anywhere but here. This place is a joke for food. So embarrassing!
