We are familiar with Mankato area restaurants & chose this one to celebrate our 5 yr wedding anniversary. They did not disappoint! We ordered the Reuben Wonton Rolls - so crispy & delicious! The seafood chowder had great flavor & variety. The sesame encrusted Tuna was phenomenal! And my husband had the lamb loin on a bed of asparagus. We are hooked & will be coming back soon to try the menu items we wanted but didn't order. Thank you for making us a memorable & scrumptious meal! See you again soon! 😊

Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

A sign outside said the restaurant was open while construction was underway, but we saw no disarray inside. Maybe the work was going on in another room. We visited here mostly because their online menu, and their menu inside, said they serve Kilkenny, one of my husband’s favorite beers and one that is rare to find. Unfortunately, we were informed right away that they no longer serve it, either, as the distributor was struggling to get it. Alas. That is the only complaint we have, though. Service was great, busy as the place was on a Saturday at lunchtime. I had a Magner’s cider while my husband made do with Schells Octoberfest. The cheese curds were absolute artwork, some of the best we’ve had in ages. I had the beet and goat cheese salad. It was huge with very fresh ingredients, quite filling without an added protein. My husband had a burger and fries and really enjoyed them.

Absolutely wonderful quaint place. The waitress we had was so sweet. The food had amazing flavor without being too much. Very clean restaurant. Great vibes.
