Salmon
Mikhala F.

Yum is a local staple! What I love about Yum is that they have handy parking and the space is so large that you can almost always find a table here. It tends to be busy, but that's a good sign of course! On our last visit in, it took a while to have our food brought out during lunch rush - next time will opt to order something more casual. I had the salmon rice dish: the salmon was great, but the rice was too doused in sauce and wasn't as enjoyable. I'd opt for something else next time. They definitely excel in their baked goods! It can be a little tricky ordering gluten free here - there are some naturally GF items, but no options to sub gluten free bread or pastry options. My husband LOVES their Patticake slice - a classic and must try.

Busy neighborhood breakfast, lunch, and dinner restaurant priced on the high moderate end. It's in a decent neighborhood so they get plenty of customers. You order at the register, get a number sign, and the food is delivered to your table. I personally much prefer this to dealing with waiters. Healthy food well presented. Unfortunately this trip I was shorted on the sandwich. Had ordered a chicken salad sandwich for lunch at the 4000 Minnetonka Blvd location. I ordered extra tomato, which I was charged extra for, for 14.60 with tax. I didn't get the extra tomato and got 8 squares of chicken, it barely took any space. Looking at the other sandwiches, I think you normally get about double that. I mentioned not getting the extra tomato I paid for and they gave me another slice. Just be careful on the sandwiches to open and check on portion size first.

Crispy Brussel Sprouts and Greek salad
Morgan W.

Stopped in during the week for lunch with my mom. I love the interior of this location as they have a huge glass window in front so tons of natural light shining in. They also have plenty of seating in front and in back. The servers were very friendly and prompt with bringing out our orders. We ordered the crispy Brussel sprouts and Greek salad with grilled chicken. The Brussels were so good and I'd highly recommend ordering to share. The Greek salad was just ok-the dressing lacked flavor and was a little too bland for my liking but wasn't bad. They have a wide variety of other salads, dishes and baked goods that I'd love to try next time I visit.

This place definitely draws a lunch crowd! I was surprised to see it still so popular, especially since the last time I was here about 10 years ago. At that time, it was just a bakery. The food presentation is impressive. The vibrant colors show fun and freshness. The flavors were solid, and the portions were a great deal. I ordered the salmon couscous salad, and the salmon was excellent. There was a generous serving of lettuce and couscous, though I felt the dish needed a bit more dressing to bring everything together. Maybe there was dressing, but just not quite enough. My friend's sandwiches all looked fantastic as well! I also heard great things about the coconut cake, so I could not resist ordering a piece to go. I cannot wait to try it and see if it lives up to the hype!

Large Macaroni & Cheese and Turkey Focaccia (but on challah bread)
Stacy A.

Cute spot and great for large groups. You seat yourself and you order at the counter. The menu is comprehensive but I wish there was a kids menu. They seem to be family-friendly but it is hard to order for a child. For example, for me to get my child the chicken and fries they asked for I would have to pay $10 for 2 pieces of chicken and $8 for fries. The mac and cheese was good, and more importantly, my kids liked it! I like the turkey sandwich - loved the fresh onion and red pepper aioli. I also noticed that they focus on sustainability (glass cups, no straws, reusable napkins), but would be great to have some plastic or melamine cups for kids to avoid accidents. Overall cute place and I'll go back but hope they add kid-friendly meals to the menu!

Whoa, this place was popping on a weekday afternoon. Parking was a bit of a challenge, but there does appear to be overflow parking across the street. They have two counters you can approach one for bakery items and another for food and bakery items. The menu is quite extensive in addition to the items they have on display for pastries and other baked goods. I don't think you can go wrong ordering anything. I had the tuna Sandwich which was monstrous, and more than enough food for one person. It came with a side of chips, but I ordered fries on the side, which were OK. I love the friendly atmosphere and brightness from all the natural light. The service was also friendly and prompt. Would absolutely be back for food and pastries. If you're looking for a recommendation for treats, the special K bar is a must.

Hugo's Baja Mahi Tacos
Anneka H.

Absolutely delicious! Quick service, good portions, fresh ingredients! The fish tacos were "build your own" which was a little messy, but the flavor was awesome.

Key lime pie and the Froot loops snack
Jay A.

Went here after a hike and this just hit the spot. The person who took our order was super friendly and knowledgeable. Ingredients were super fresh and tasty. The only negative I'd have to say would be the iced tea. I wish there was an option without the artificial sweetener. I could definitely taste it. I would have preferred no sweetener if possible. Other than that, I would love to try the other fixings.

Latte & Cinnamon Pull - A - Part
Claire H.

Walked in and ordered 3 takeout lunches during lunchtime. Service was quick and we had a pleasant experience at the restaurant. All 3 lunches were amazing - chicken club, grilled cheese, and chicken salad all received rave reviews. We also purchased the cinnamon pull apart bread which had great flavor but was unfortunately dry. I have stopped at Yum to pick up dessert several times. Unfortunately I find every time that although they have great flavor, every bakery item is dry!!! I'm not sure the cause for dry baked goods but I hope they figure out a solution. Overall, highly recommend for a meal.

09.19.23 Fish & Chips
May A.

Not so yum! Takeout [Minneapolis MN] Our lunch from our Day 2 Workshop was provided by yum! Kitchen, a restaurant in Minneapolis MN. I ordered the Fish & Chips (alaskan cod & french fries w/ house tartar sauce). I love fish & chips but I should've known that it is best when consumed immediately... my fish & chips did not travel well. They were a bit soggy, especially the fries. Some parts remained crunchy though and I enjoyed those. Until I get a chance to actually dine in the restaurant this is all I can review about. The orders were to go and was picked up by one of our colleagues. I'm sure they have other things I may like, but the fish & chips was not the best for take out. For now, 3.5-Stars. Hope to make it back again soon. Review #3184

Patticake
Jane S.

This place fits its name! Yum! Really good food! Forgot to take a photo but I got the southwest chicken salad and it was delicious! I love the unique atmosphere of ordering at the counter and they'll still bring the food to you! The cake is delicious and everyone was friendly! They even clear your dishes for you when they notice you've finished. Have been multiple times with friends and family and will continue to keep coming back!

Rebecca V.

Very yummy! This place is much more than a bakery. In our group, we had fish and chips, the salmon salad, split pea soup, and a tuna melt. We enjoyed a couple of cupcakes. Everything was super fresh, well presented, and exactly what we needed. Service was friendly and generous. My boyfriend thanked the manager and she insisted on us taking a complementary piece of cake home.

How did I miss this place across from Trader Joe's in the past? Was on the other side of town and checked trusty Yelp for "Coffee Shops Near Me". Gotta go. Getting out of the parking lot was a task. One side is no left turn onto Excelsior Blvd. Try to turn back the other way with cars entering on two sides..yes two sides to enter, only one to exit. Made it, now sipping and driving 8 miles to my next location. Coffee feels good on a bone numbing day.

Labor Day weekend we were in visiting Minneapolis. My partner is Gluten Free and found a post about…read moreHold The Wheat. We went there for Breakfast one morning, and it was worth the visit. It's a comfortable little store. Parking was a little tricky, but we were able to get a spot on the street in front of the store. If they had been busy, I don't know that we'd been able to find a place close by to park. The interior was casual and welcoming. We walked in and started perusing the displace case. There were a lot of delicious options. We had to discuss who was going to get what so we could try various items. I ended up getting a Caramelized Onion & Gruyere Quiche, she chose the Bacon & Goat Cheese Quiche. Of course, being out of towners we had a lot of questions. The staff was accommodating and answered everything enthusiastically. Even though I am not Gluten Free, I do tend to be a little watch dog like for my partner, only because she has ordered items in the past that we thought were gluten free only to find out they really weren't. They were understanding and assured me that everything was Gluten Free. After ordering we went to their small indoor seating area to try our selections. Overall, the food was fantastic. I can't say anything disparaging about either of the quiches. We had a very intense discussion regarding which one of our quiches was better. Honestly, we ended up trading half way so we could enjoy both. She was pleased with the flavor and the crust of the quiche. For those of us that eat gluten, we know that sometimes gluten free items have a slightly different flavor or texture that, while not bad, just isn't the same. That really was not what I experienced at Hold the Wheat. The flavor was 100% on point with what one would expect. The texture was a little crumblier than gluten full options, but it didn't have that grainy texture. It was fantastic. While ordering in their display I saw a Dill Pickle & Pink Lemonade cup cake. According to the staff it was a novelty they made for the Minnesota State Fair and was popular there. My interest was piqued; thus, I ended up ordering one to take home. I did not need a cupcake in the morning. Before I go further into this, let me just say that I ended up eating it two days after I bought it. So let me just say, it's a novelty. The flavor was unique. I like dill pickles... but apparently, I am not the dill pickle & pink lemonade flavored cupcake fan. I'm not letting this influence my review because of the nature, but it did look appealing. I only mention it because it's a fun item they made for a special occasion and is indicative of their creativity, but it has no impact on this review. Overall, this place was fantastic, if we get back to the area, we will definitely go back. If you are Gluten Free, or in a relationship with someone that is Gluten Free, this place is a must.

My family loved it and the slice sizes were perfect! My New York cheesecake was absolutely lovely, it definitely felt like a fresh strawberry would have made it over the top but it was amazing regardless! My husband thought the pistachio flavor would be a bit more subtle but he also enjoyed his slice :)

The croissants were super hefty in size and very filled which was nice and definitely worth the price. My kouign amann in comparison was really small and at almost the same price I would say was a kinda overpriced. But they texture was light and crunchy and I really enjoyed the jam inside. Bostock was dense in a good way with a layer of jam and then frangipane. You could really taste the cardamom too. Bear claw was croissant that they filled with almond, raspberry and cream cheese. Flavors were also good in that.
