My biggest issue and the thing that drove down their rating for me was how god-awful loud it is.

They should seriously consider adding accoustic panels or something to decrease the crowd noise.

The experience at this restaurant is weird. Show up at 11am…read more- you'll have a line out the door. That is understandable, as it's peak brunch time. You talk to the front desk, and they'll tell you there's an hour wait if you don't have a reservation. You look around and see open tables. You think: "that's odd". You check on the website and it says you can get a reservation for 15, 30, and 45 minutes from now. You select a reservation for 15 minutes from now, and magically there isn't an hour wait for you anymore. You note the still open tables and the line not moving. The restaurant is very loud. They're doing late 2010's industrial chic with not a soft surface in site and garage doors, so everybody's conversation bounces around indefinitely. You wait a while for a server to come. I find the way the food looks when it arrives is always different than the way it sounds when you read the menu - sometimes for better, and sometimes for worse. The coffee and bar menu is pretty decent for a brunch place. Prices are on the high end, though some are more reasonable than others. Then you get hit with a 3% credit card fee which isn't adequately disclosed on the menu or when you enter the restaurant.

A friend who lives nearby swears by the consistent high quality of the food, and that's what I experienced with my mocha, which was perfectly not-too-sweet, and my Eggs Benedict with hash browns. You know how hash browns are almost always garbage? To the point where you wonder why they were even invented? These ones were excellent; fluffy and nicely seasoned. And the Eggs Benedict were great and the omelets are super tasty with great, fresh veggies. They've got a lunch menu I'm eager to try which includes a Juicy Lucy. Ordering from the QR code at each table is easy but you can order from the counter as well if you'd like. They'll bring it out to you, and if you order drip coffee they'll bring you a mug for you to serve yourself. I really like it here!

The ceiling is decorated with mason jars, which gives the restaurant such a unique and charming feel. The restaurant was clean, the service was excellent, and everyone was friendly and welcoming. We came to try some Minnesota specialties, including the walleye. Unfortunately, the sauce served with it contains alcohol, so I wasn't able to have it. There wasn't an alternative sauce available, so I had the fish plain. I don't think that really did the walleye justice, so it wasn't my favorite dish. Some of the other items were also a bit hit-or-miss for my personal taste, but that's more about my preferences than the quality of the food. One thing we really loved was the adorable bakery and ice cream counter at the front of the restaurant. Grabbing ice cream before we left was the perfect ending to our meal. Overall, this is a beautiful restaurant with great service and a fun atmosphere. If you're looking to try Minnesota fare in a welcoming setting, I'd definitely recommend giving it a visit.

We ordered the Minnesota Sampler, which included hot dish, chicken pot pie, and pot roast, giving us a nice variety of local favorites. The hot dish was our favorite of the three. It's hard to go wrong with a dish topped with crispy tater tots, and we really enjoyed it. The chicken pot pie and pot roast were decent, but they didn't stand out as much. One of the dishes included blue cheese, and its flavor was so strong that it overpowered the rest of the meal. Overall, the food was good and gave us a chance to try some regional specialties, but it wasn't a meal that really wowed us. It's worth a visit if you're looking to sample traditional Minnesota comfort food, but we didn't find it to be an exceptional dining experience.

It's creamy with the cool burrata cheese, salty, sweet with the hot honey(not too hot, Mn friendly) crunchy! Oh my gosh I was raving about it for days! We also got the beast mode fries. Those were VERY filling, and you get a lot! Also very tasty! If you have never been, this place has a ton of free sauces that you can just grab from the pick up counter or cooler!

Beware of delivery. I went in to order a pizza for dinner and pay for it since we had a babysitter this evening. When the delivery came they insisted she pay for it even after she told them I had already paid for it in person. The delivery driver argued with her in front of my 3 children and then she finally closed the door on him. I called when I came home to complain and was yelled at for 10 minutes by the owner- that the driver would not have argued and my sitter was making it up. I was finally told that their cashier made the mistake and did not write paid on the ticket but since there was nothing wrong with the food they would not offer even a coupon on our next order. Sad, we have spent plenty of money dining in and on delivery. It would only seem right they do something in return for their mistake. Bad customer service. I called to make a complaint and instead was yelled at and when I told them I would write this review and no longer patronize their restaurant they told me "good". wow- way to treat a loyal customer. We have never complained to them before or asked for anything. read more

I've been going to TOPS since I was a kid and they first opened. It was original Philadelphia Greek. It's not anymore. I used to come home from California, Georgia, Missouri, wherever we were stationed and the first place I stopped was at T.O.P.S. Apparently, it is now under new ownership. I stopped in tonight for my usual Gyro and Greek Salad. The meat and tzatziki sauce taste like what you get from commercial grocery store kit. Absolutely no taste. The salad was just as bad. When I called my order in, I was told 20-30mins, on a Tuesday night. I figured ok, they must be busy. They were not. I called on my way home so I went there and figured I would wait. No one was cooking and there were less than 10 customers. I now have to say goodbye to my favorite restaurant. Unless the recipes go back to what they used to be, which I highly doubt, my family and I will no longer be eating here. If you like bulk, commercially made taste then this place is for you. If you want authentic, real taste? Find somewhere else. read more
