    Took my mother here for her birthday. Street parking, which can be difficult to find depending on when you go. I usually just walk in, never had a issue getting seated. Staff is always super friendly and helpful. Love the look, definitely a cool date spot whether you start or end there. Have great desserts and cocktails but can get a little spendy. Enjoyed everything we ordered and will definitely be going back.

    This is a fun lil place to go for that dessert craving you're having. I'd say "drunchies" if you've already had a full meal somewhere in the area. It's perfect walking distance from multiple restaurants in the north loop. You can also get to-go and bring home all the goods to enjoy at home. We sat at the bar, otherwise I think you have to order at the counter? There's not a lot of tables to sit at so it fills fast. Our favorite was the Rocher mousse. The crisp waffle hazelnut crunch on the bottom was just amazing! Tasted like the ferrero roucher chocolates if you've ever had that before. They also have a full service cocktail bar. The espresso martini was sooo good! Couldn't taste the alcohol at all. That being said,it is spendy here. Cocktails were $14 and up. I overall enjoyed my experience. One time is good enough for me though

    I am so, so, soooo sad that this place is closing. We finally tried it last weekend after hearing about the impending closure, and wow, we had no idea what we were missing! The vegan desserts here are sooooooo yummy, and they have a ton of them! We shared the chocolate sundae and the rice pudding, and both were amazing. The ambiance is really fun, with a bar and some fancy seating. This would be an ok place for a first date, and since it's so close to a bunch of fancy restaurants, it's also a great place to stop in after a nice meal (which is what we did). Service was a bit slow, but they were also really busy, so not surprising. I wish it was staying open!!!

    Issaaa Ice Cream Shop!! You scream, we scream, WE all scream for Ice Cream!!! Location / Ambiance 5/5 This cute place is so open and airy with high ceilings, velour booths and no reserved seating. It's conveniently located on Washington Avenue in the North Loop area. Plenty of side street parking. Service 5/5 The sweet treats, coffee over ice cream, beautiful wood floors, high back chairs, the location and ambiance are so worth waiting to Thursday. Pease extend your hours.lol but I get it. There servers are top tier and chatty like me. lol. 5/5 Prices were great. Don't ask me how I paid. I didnt track the evidence. If you're tryin to unbig your back, only come once a month. Treat yourselffff!! It's worth it! 10/10 I would recommend! As a bonus: If you like to place hop, this is the prime location. We came from lunch at Monte Carlos... they're plenty of patios, rooftops, bars, ect. It's a win win : D

    Amazing desserts but try to avoid busy, very crowded weekend nights! The line was long, there was no seating & parking (even in pay lot) was almost impossible. The place is hopping & food is beautiful but quite loud & chaotic when busy. They do indicate GF options; they will box desserts to-go.

    I've come here once or twice and honestly just love the overall concept of the place! So much seating and the desserts are always 10/10! Usually when a friend comes into town for a visit and we're out late, I usually stop us here for dessert and a drink. It's always packed so definitely not a hidden gem lol, but still deserves the 5 star review!

    I liked this place. I'm not big on sweets but the drinks were exceptional. Street parking might be a bit rough if it's a busy day. We went on a low traffic day and sat at the booth and loved people watching. Might be a bit overpriced in my opinion but a good spot to come visit.

    We got to Edwards Dessert Kitchen on a warm Friday night right as the Twins game finished and this place was packed! The line moved slower than I anticipated for quick desserts and some choices were limited. It's not their fault there isn't any other dessert or ice cream spots in North Loop. Their desserts are no doubt Instagram worthy, but my cookie was typical. I will be opting for one of their delicacy desserts next time! Cute booth seating by the windows for a drink or dessert on your first date.

    I really like the ambiance here, as both a cafe during the day and in the evenings as a bar. I've been here 3 times now and have tried multiple desserts and, this most recent time, some cocktails. I still haven't found a dessert that I like here, unfortunately. I'm just not a fan of the frequency of mousse type desserts they offer, and I wish there was more variety. Once I try their baked goods (some cookies and a brownie) I'll update my review, but I don't think those are what they're known for or advertise often. The drinks were good though - sweet as expected, while still being able to taste the alcohol. During the day the space is not crowded, and I see people working on their laptops sometimes. It does get packed in the evenings though so I recommend getting there before 7 if you want a seat.

    Sundae
    Eman S.

    This place was popping on a Saturday night but plenty of seating if you stalk a little (don't be creepy about it). We got the sundae which for $10 ish wasn't a bad deal. It had 4 scoops of ice cream, edwards rich chocolate sauce and blondie chunks. The bowl and spoons were an experience. It was hectic but the staff had a great attitude and even let me try a flavor or two of ice cream. I will say that I felt like the ice cream was rich and decadent but that there might have been a slight after taste that I couldn't put my finger on.

    Edward's dessert kitchen is such a fun place to be!! The creative and tasty desserts are to DIE FOR!!! I got a pastry with some ice cream on the side, and it was perfect with a mix of textures, hot and cold elements, and smooth and crunchy elements!! I love the casual atmosphere and that it can be a good place for a mid afternoon treat or a nighttime treat!! The service is very fast and friendly, and all the pastries are made with exquisite detail. A must try in Minneapolis.!!

    This place was so cute and inviting! I wish I had more room to try different desserts but settled with the mango coconut rice pudding and it did not disappoint! This was so flavorful and not overwhelming with sweetness. Highly recommend!!

    Recently walked by Edwards Dessert Kitchen when they had the ice cream cart out. We were stuffed from dinner but the gal working at the ice cream cart encouraged us to try free samples and I just couldn't resist. The flavors, grapefruit pink peppercorn sorbet, strawberry lemonade sherbet, rhubarb bay leaf crumble, & s'mores were all tasty, but my favorites were the rhubarb and the smores - the cinnamon & pieces of chocolate were amazing! They had a cute outdoor spot you can enjoy your ice cream too.

They have QR codes on each table so you can order on your phone, and they have WiFi available. Alternatively, someone can take your order if you'd prefer! For the burgers, you can choose between the impossible patty or the black bean patty. For the chicken sandwiches, you can choose grilled or fried vegan chicken. For beverages, they have cocktails, mocktails, wine, beer, THC drinks, milkshakes, pop, lemonade, and more! There are so many options which is great! The fries are crispy! One of my friends went with the ranch fries which were good, but in my opinion it was not worth the $2 upcharge for the amount of seasoning that comes on them. I would recommend sticking with the regular fries and ordering a side of ranch as a dipping sauce instead! This is the only place that I'm aware of where you can get a vegan juicy lucy! It is very cheesy, and it's fun that there's a meatless version of a MN classic! It was messy to eat though so make sure to have a napkin nearby! I really enjoyed the atmosphere, and would go back! I think it's be a great place for hanging out with friends, especially if there are any vegans or vegetarians in the group!

The service was appropriately lowkey and prompt. Their food might seem a bit expensive, but their portions are generous. The fries were reminiscent of McDonald's fries in the best way, just fresher and crispier! We tried the Parlour burger and the chicken sandwich, both of which were simple but delicious.

This makes the burger really chewy and you really can't taste the beef anymore like you used to when it was thicker. I would take this as it's not as good as it used to be. It is not as good as the original hype from the beginning. In conclusion, I do not think it's worth the $19. I rather get a cheesesteak for $16 at Tono's which comes with fresh not burnt fries rather than come back here and get a burger here. It's highly unlikely I will be back here. I honestly feel like the burgers have gone way WAY downhill. The fries here have gotten terrible so I stopped getting the fries a long time ago. They are not soft crisp like they used to be. They are too golden brown color, almost like burnt hard fries. I never like to eat down here. I normally would order the Parlour burger upstairs. The basement part which is Parlour has a weird smell like a locker room smell so that's why I don't like to eat down here.

We had no idea where to go, but heard to go down an alleyway behind up-down and then saw a random door that we had no idea was the entrance until another group came over! We knocked and they slid the door hole open to speak, it was so fun! Felt like a real speakeasy. Once we were in, we were seated in the back. There was an hour and 1/2 limit, but that was plenty of time for us to have a drink. I ordered the Me Espresso and my husband ordered the special of the day, which was a scotch with a special twist. Both were delicious! Definitely a little pricier, but the atmosphere made up for the cost. Overall I would definitely recommend! Next time we may wait for a booth to be served out of a window in the wall, did not know about that until we got there! Such a fun touch.

The waiter was nice, but I'm not sure if he was new. He didn't know what the specials were. He didn't know what the wine was. It says on the menu, red or white and he didn't know what either brand was or the food specials on the menu. sometimes it took a while for him to come over because he was chatting up another booth behind us. We ordered the chicken that was on the menu and it was a very small piece of chicken and it was supposed to come with broccolini and there was three skinny little stalks, and there was some kind of purée underneath it. Not sure if that was potatoes or what, but the chicken had a very good flavor. It was just very small. That's my complaint on that so we ended up ordering the sweet potato fries and that was a good portion and very good. I would definitely order those again. There is parking behind the building, but you need a parking pass to park there.
