HauteDish

American (New)
Neighborhood: North Loop
Sorry HauteDish. Our highly anticipated visit left me wishing for more.
Tuesday night reservations. 6 of us were squished into a booth that really only comfortably fits 4, even though a bigger table in the back was open the entire time.
Our weeknight dinner took 2 hours, start to finish with entree's only. The service was so bad and spotty I wanted to scream. He acted totally inconvenienced to refill my drink, and drinks from the bar were taking 10 minutes + on a slow night.
The food was DECENT. I had the coveted Tater tot hotdish, the portion size was nice and the flavors were good. Others at the table had the Mac and Cheese (very small portion) and General Tso's (very small portion). I think the prices were high for the food we got.
Sorry to ruin the perfect run :(

Like others have mentions, a cute little retro cafe.
Hubby and I went for a late brunch and were pleased with no wait and fast service. I had the Chilaquiles: crispy tortilla strips, black beans, 2 eggs, salsa, lime crema. I love beans but it was like a bean explosion :)
My hubby loved his biscuits and gravy and finished them in like 2.5 minutes!

4 stars for the Loaded Baked Potato Pizza. You. Must. Get. This. Pizza. There is no substitute. BUT the Ruby Rae is a highly underrated za. The upside down pizza pie with the red sauce on top is fresh, spicy and reminded me of Italy.
2 stars for service (wanna be hipster/hippie attitude).

FUN FUN FUN.
Loved the crowd, polka band and atmosphere. Polka dancing on a Friday night? YES PLEASE.
The bartenders were a bit cranky - but whatever.
Seriously in my top 5 "going out" places in Minneapolis now.

Vincent A Restaurant

Neighborhood: Downtown Minneapolis
Sorry to ruin the reviews - I wasn't so wooed.
Group of 10-12 of us sat in the bar area. We mostly ordered off the bar menu including the infamous Vincent Burger. It was dry and was smothered in something that reminded me a bit of mayonnaise (ewww).
The salad in sub of fries was b-o-r-i-n-g. I did sneak a bite of someone's fries and they were yummy.
The rest of the group seemed underwhelmed too :( Overall a bit stiff in price and clientele.

YES YES YES.
I've been driving by this place for a year. Finally - I brought in 3 pairs of pants with ripped hems (damn heels), 1 pair that needed a new zipper and a shirt with a hole. Old Amy would have thrown these away and bought new - but New Fiscal Amy got them fixed instead.
$30
And done in 3 days. Super quality work. Friendly family run business.

My dog Lucy = my family, my daughter, etc. Lucy likes to eat all sorts of things...food, crab apples, greenies...and also things she shouldn't like rat poison and mysterious things under the deck. Enter frantic mom (me) and Oak Knoll (savior, vet).
They understand my crazy, pleaseseelucythisminute frantic calls. They treat her so well, coo at her just like I do, and make me feel comfortable leaving her for her various stomach pumps, surgery's, teeth cleanings and shots. The prices are reasonable and the staff is amazing.
100 stars.

Over-priced, over-hyped meat market. Ugh. BOOOOOO SLP - why, why, why can't we just have a non-chain open? Food was over dressed, under-seasoned and over cooked. The wait staff was completely unaware of everything on the menu.
1 star for the Surly on tap. 1 more star for the people watching.

Over a month later, I am STILL thinking about my pasta dish: Fettuccine Verdi alla Salsicca - fresh, house-made spinach pasta with spicy sausage. Simply amazing. Definitely going into my regular rotation.
