The workers were friendly and attentive. You can grab a tray, pay for your food, get your food and sit down to eat. You are able to get hot food to-go as well as long as you order a main entree, which comes with a tier 1 side and a tier 2 side. You cannot order sides ala cart to go. I opted for the chicken Marsala, mashed potatoes, and veggies. The entree did come with two slices of French bread and butter as well. I paid under $14 for my meal. It was tasty and filling--I couldn't even finish the entire meal. I am definitely going to include this place in my lunch rotation when I'm in the office.

What do you do when you can't decide where to go for dinner?…read more You go to @malcolmyardsmarket in Minneapolis (nestled close to Roseville just off of University and 280) This is such a different experience where you have so many options to order from with major ease. Check in and get a Market Card then walk around to find what sounds good. I've always thought this is the perfect place to go when you... -can't figure out what you want to eat -when you're meeting up with friends or coworkers -going on a first date -want adult food but also have a kiddo along. The Market has a beer wall, a full bar and multiple food vendors to order from. Over time new vendors take residence of the spots though there are some that have been around a long time. It's fun to get favorites and try new things. I'd suggest you go with the mindset to try different things and share with who you're with to find your favorites. They also have many areas to grab a seat and visit inside and outside. As well as special event space to rent. There is often activities at the Market so make sure to check them out if you're looking for more than a meal. Favorites Pictured food: Beef Bulgogi Egg Flip Sandwich (@eggflip.usa ) Red Curry Burrito (@eatwsk1 ) Additional Favorite spots and recommendations: @wrecktanglepizzamn - The Shredder @delsurempanadasmn - The Empanadas @kinsleys_deli - The Ruben @bebe.zito - The Cheeseburgers This is a fun spot regardless of the season or type of event. Essentially a one size fits all type of place. Enjoy! For more awesome food spots check out the account mallorymademetryitmn on Instagram!

Stopped here to do birthday desserts!! Here are the key things to note!…read more Free parking Great patio!! It was covered and the flowers around this place are gorgeous!! You are looking out to a street but the flowers REALLY make up for that! There is inside seating as well, table and chairs. You walk up and order. The desserts and separate from the main course items. I appreciated that! Made the lines go faster. The service on the other hand was lacking. I stood there waiting while 2 people had a convo and I felt ignored. I dropped a star for that reason. The key lime pie and dirt cup were very tasty!! This place is known for its "pattiecake" but I just felt it was a regular chocolate cake with frosting. They have plenty of desserts though! Overall this place gives "up scale Panera vibes" and I liked it! I would go back!

After several visits over the last few years, here are my thoughts…read more -Lots of seating! If you're looking for a table indoors and the main area is packed, head to the back (towards bathrooms) where you'll find two rooms with additional seating which are usually quieter. - I tend to go for sandwiches, which include house made chips. Honestly, when I first went, I wasn't a fan of the chips, but it didn't take long for me to like them. Once while dining in, I found that most of them were just tiny bits. Well when the waiter came to ask how things were, I told/showed him... just as an FYI, not expecting anything. Well, he kindly brought me a bag to replace them. -The staff is mostly kind, with two male waiters/runners being especially nice and helpful. While myself or others are waiting they'll give friendly smiles, see if you need anything in the meantime. I like them! - Although I go mainly for the sandwiches, (my favorite being the Southwest Chicken Panini available in the Fall), I also like the mac and cheese and fries. I used to love the coconut cake, but something about the last one I bought tasted different. The filling and the cake texture... weren't as tasty as I remember. During my last visit I tried, the Reuben. Not for me, but they have lots of other things to try.

Tried a few things at the north loop galley…read more The Hawaiian place has some really yummy and fulfilling bits - one thing about it is we did not order something but it was rang and charged. To our surprise the food arrived and we were confused. They wouldn't let us "return" the food we didn't order. Ended up to to duplicate items. It was a bit awkward but next time I will make sure to ask clearly. Hence taking off the star The hot chicken sandwich was okay as well - it wasn't as juicy as I liked. Nice vibe and open concept. Nice place for people to hang out.

Another city, another epic food hall. Ok maybe this is more like a galley, like the name implies,…read morebut it's no less wonderful. Sitting in one of Minneapolis's most desirable neighborhoods, North loop galley features 4-5 eateries and a bar, with both indoor and outdoor spaces to lounge as you enjoy a diverse group of pop up eateries. There's even a wide selection of board and table top games to enhance an already fun space. I've had my fair share of Detroit style pizza, and Wrecktangle is up there as some of the best. The m we my features so much more than your ordinary red top. Ingredients like hot honey, burrata, and even pork belly make these pies not only unique, but absolutely satisfying. Feeling tropical? How about Ono Hawaiian, bring a little bit of Hawaii to Minnesota. The luau bowl is a mountain of food. Chicken katsu, kalua pork, rice, and macaroni salad. This looks and feels exactly like some of food I've had in Hawaii, and it's every bit as good. The pork is bursting with flavor and the chicken katsu couldn't have been executed any better. The katsu sauce takes it to a whole other level. This galley is so many things all once: Great food, great drinks, great meeting place, great entertainment, great hangout in all seasons. Simply put....North loop galley is a Vibe!

They're not so great on vegetarian options, unless you want a veggie burger, thus one star less. Granted there is a salad place downstairs so there are other options in the area. Pretty huge lines around lunch time and not a lot of seating in the restaurant itself but plenty of seating on other levels of the plaza area. It's an order at the end of the line, there is more than one depending on what you want to order, pay and find your seat sort of place which can be a bit confusing the first time you're in. The food came out quickly and the veggie burger and the fries were quite tasty so it worked out for a quick meal.

It's rather eclectic since it's a diner attached to a cabaret (with a spinning shoe at top of the outside!). The staff was super friendly though it did take a bit for the server to see that there was someone waiting. So don't think they're ignoring you! The food really hit the spot, I had one of the breakfasts and we also got the cheese curds, because well, give where we were, how could you not? Great diner fare with breakfast 24 hours, how can you go wrong? I even recommended it to other people that were in town for the same event and everyone just loved it. It's super low key and really very much a 70s/80s style diner. Give it a try!
