We are Travail veterans and were happy to return recently for another unbelievable "14-20" course (we had 26!) experience. The chefs and staff are well versed and enthusiastic, striving to make sure you are having a great time. (They seem to like to play with liquid nitrogen too…) We ordered the beverage pairing and split it among the four of us, which worked well as we each had a sip of some very interesting cocktails and other beverages. There wasn’t a course we didn’t enjoy, but a few stood out, especially the two times we made field trips to the kitchen area to pick up our course. Each dish is well-plated and scrumptious. It’s pricey, but perfect for a special night out.

Festive and cheery, larger than I thought and quite busy. Attractive bar and decor. Sushi station. Full, interesting menu. Had great, flavorful food. Quite spicy so be careful. They do ask you how you want your food, on a scale of 1-5, but I think the food already starts at about a 2.5. I know people love spicy but I don't handle it too well. The choices are plentiful and they are very accommodating. They also do classes and will come to your home. There is lots of seating but it can be a little tight. Full bar with lots of specialty drinks.

This is by far my favorite pizza around this area. Prices are very reasonable. Pizzas are big and taste great.
7. King's Korean Restaurant

Reviewed By PABryce - Harrisburg, Pennsylvania
Visited with a friend, my wife, and 5 kids ages 11 months through 8 yeas.
Truly, one of the finest Korean meals I have EVER eaten! Ordered family style beef bulgogi, BBQ spare ribs, miso soup, rice, kimchi, bean sprout sides, spicy zucchini sides, spicy fish sides, and a few other things I'm not remembering. Sorry, my friend speaks Korean and did all the ordering, so I'm not so sure about the spelling and proper names. But it was all fantastic! Servers SO FRIENDLY!
They helped entertain the kids, and one server, a very beautiful and kind Korean lady, even helped feed our baby. Our kids LOVED this food!
These people treated us like family. They are amazing...at least as amazing as their food.
No joking, this place is legit...AUTHENTIC Korean food, and if I lived nearby, I'd visit at least twice a week. You MUST try this place!
I live 1,100 miles away from it, but "I SHALL RETURN!" :-)
Just one criticism: amount of kimchi in a serving was pathetically small. They should at least triple it.
$109 total bill for 8 of us. GREAT deal considering the quantity, quality, fellowship, and experience.

Authentic middle eastern food prepared by our Turkish and Egyptian chefs. Scratch kitchen with large portions. This is a must check out restaurant in the Minneapolis area. We are a destination for many travelers.

This was our first visit to Filfillah. After having visited a few well-known Middle Eastern/Greek restaurants in the same area for the last few years, I consider Filfillah simply the BEST! All food was well prepared and delicious. And their bread is unique! Service was impeccable. I can't wait to go back
9. Giuseppe's Italian Ristorante

Reviewed By Jasosmit - Fargo, North Dakota
We were pleasently surprised with this small restaurant off the beaten path. To start the bread basket is spectacular, fresh and soft, with a good variety. The pepperoni stuffed bread was our favorite. The main meal was very good and very generous for the price. I enjoyed the lasagna and my wife enjoyed her ravioli. However, we also had a meatball on the side and it was to die for. We ended the meal with tiramisu and it was fantastic. It was just the right amount of sweet. Would definitely recommend this restaurant for the food and the laid back environment. The staff was also very nice and accommodating.
10. Chimborazo

Reviewed By PVVVV - Minnetonka, Minnesota
We found Chimborazo written about in a book of unique restaurants in Minneapolis. We are fortunate in the north land to have a number of really good restaurants and as amateur foodies, my wife and I have been fortunate to enjoy many of them, but we wanted to widen our perspective and experience.
We dined at Chimborazo on a cold Wednesday evening in mid February arriving at about 7:45 PM and the place was very busy. The food grabs your attention with delicious flavors and the diners all seem to be enjoying themselves and speaking loudly! It has a very Latin America flair and personality for Minnesota! I really liked everything about it.
To our surprise Wednesday night offers a date night special with two entrées and a bottle of wine for $35.! This is absolutely the best value in the Twin Cities! The QPV is off the charts! I had the beef and my wife had chicken. Normally we're good about sharing, but this night we really wanted to enjoy every bite of what was on the plate in front of us. We will definitely be going back many times! The tres leches was delicious too.
