Honestly this is probably the healthiest food in Rochester Minnesota. More importantly in my…read moreopinion it's one of the yummiest. If I didn't add the Parmesan crisp this would be an insanely healthy and delicious meal. Still not bad even with the. Cheese crisp I just couldn't help myself. Think of this as a chipotle style of build it yourself bowls. It is still possible to make it unhealthy if you really try to do it, but most of their ingredients are lean and nutrient rich so you'd have to really go out of your way to do that. The dressings and the freshness of the food is unmatched. I wish they had one of these near me.

There was no hand sanitizer or cleaner next to the iPads There is no menu posted that is visible while you wait in line to order so it slows ordering down You place your order on the iPad as well as pick up your order when they call your name. Yet the iPad suggests a tip. Yes, there is a "no tip "button but found it kind of weird they'd even ask since there was no "service" There is no garbage on the patio which I understand if they are trying to minimize flies, etc. But then there is no garbage right inside the patio door. It's a little further in the store which if you have to make a couple trips to get rid of your waste is not convenient.

One of the last true Mom & Pop ice cream shops in the Twin Cities southern suburbs!…read more I was craving some ice cream on this hot summer day and was on the search for a new unique place to try out. To my disappointment I realized the small business ice cream shops have declined quite a bit in the last 10 years. I found Lakeside Eats & Treats online and figured a short trip to Prior Lake would be worth it! This small shop is nestled in the heart of downtown prior lake. The inside is very cute and quaint. Minimal seating, a couple tables and a small window bar. They have a decent selection of fun flavors, those you wouldn't see at a Dairy Queen or Cherry Berry. I chose to order 2 scoops, two flavors. One - the Jolted Cow and the other Cookie Dough Chocolate Chip. The ice cream was very nice. Dense, sweet - but not sickly, and very creamy. The portion sizes are immaculate! I thought $7 for a two scoop at a small place like this might be a tad over priced, but you get massive amount of ice cream! The Jolted Cow - this is a coffee base ice cream with carmel and brownie pieces. Soooo good! This was the creamiest of the two flavors. The Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough - this was your basic flavor, pretty self explanatory. However the flavor was great, and the scoop was most certainly not lacking any of the mix-ins, which you can often see other places. They also offer build-your-own Açaí Bowls!! If I hadn't been craving ice cream I would have definitely ordered one of these. They have a large selection of choices for your bowl include the base flavor and toppings. Overall, it's a cute shop that has 2 specialties and clearly does them well. Will definitely be back at some point to try out that açaí bowl!

I've ordered a few different bowls and the sunrise is my favorite. (I posted a picture of it) Decor inside is a super cute, nautical theme.

The bowls are on the spendy side, $10 for a small - but you get what you pay for. I recommend you check this place out right away!

I like that particular bowl because it has a little bit of everything it seems like and you truly can't go wrong with any option from here. Everything is dairy-free, gluten free and organic. Because everything is so yummy I don't have to do much convincing to get my family to order from Nautical Bowls. I easily order on their app (it saves your orders so you can see what you have ordered before). Orders are ready very quickly. The store is clean, new and well maintained. They do have a few tables outside but I have not sat there (right by cars and not super inviting).
