1. Ngon Vietnamese Bistro
I love Ngon, and I really love the fact that it's not far from where I live. It's a small but classy place, with a great (all-local) beer list and fantastic food. Their pho is incredibly good, but everything I've ordered off their menu has been…More »
2. Beirut Restaurant
Beirut Restaurant is seriously unknown, and that is a shame. It's time to give it the lovin' it deserves.
I enjoy Middle Eastern food, but I have to admit that there isn't much diversity between menus no matter which Middle Eastern restaurant you…More »
3. Everest on Grand
Well, I just went here for lunch today (actually, I got take-out) so I thought I would write a review while it's still fresh in my mind-- it's been at least two years since the last time I was here.
Nepalese food has much in common with Indian food,…More »
4. La Grolla
LaGrolla is a marvelous little trattoria on Selby Avenue. The risotto and pastas are delectable, and the bread... well, I could make a meal of just their house bread dunked in olive oil alone. I've never had anything but a wonderful Italian meal at…More »
5. Little Szechuan
Fantastic Szechuan, best in St. Paul and possibly the best in the Twin Cities (although I also love the Tea House). The menu is huge and the service friendly. If you like Szechuan and you are anywhere within a 50 mile radius of St. Paul, this…More »
6. Grampa Tony's Pizza
Been coming here for years-- 20+! I love the thin, crispy crust, the perfectly-spiced sauce and fresh, abundant toppings. I always end up comparing every other pizza I've had with Grampa Tony's. If that's not the hallmark of a great 'za, then I don't…More »
7. Cecils
Cecil's has been in this same spot for as long as I can remember. The reason for their staying power is obvious, once you've eaten here. They have the best pastrami sandwich *ever.* Here's a great tip: next time you need to order box lunches for your…More »
8. Taste of Thailand
This has always been my favorite Thai restaurant in the East Metro. I've been going here since it first opened. They still have the best Pad Thai I've ever had. One thing that I read a lot about (not just on Yelp) is that their service is, well,…More »
9. Tanpopo Noodle Shop
Tanpopo is a Lowertown gem worth seeking out if you like Japanese comfort food. It's kitty-corner from the St. Paul Farmer's Market in a very old, renovated warehouse. My favorites are their udon soups and the veggie teishoku. Inexpensive and fresh.…More »
10. Khyber Pass
I've been a fan of Khyber Pass since they were on St. Clair Avenue. I like the Grand Avenue locale as well, with its understated decor featuring pictures of Afghani people and villages.
In short, I've never had a bad meal here. My favorite items are…More »
11. El Burrito Mercado
Yum, yum! Here's another reason to cross the river, you Minneapolitans. The food is delightful-- love the homemade salsa and the tortillas. Portions are large and the cost is delightfully budget-preserving. The grocery store is jam packed full of…More »
