    I've been going to dahlia since they were just a pop up store! I love that they now have a…read morestorefront and have gone several times! They are located in Northeast Minneapolis and have a parking lot, and there is street parking around as well! The space is small, but there are more tables outside as well! It's a pretty quick/casual environment, or a good place to grab for take out! They make some changes to their menu weekly, and they offer weekend specials, so I recommend following them on social media for all the updates! I've enjoyed everything I've had at Dahlia, from breakfast sandwiches to quiche to pastries. You really can't go wrong here, as long as you get here before everything sells out! They do offer preorders online on Thursdays and Fridays but weekends are first come, first serve so get there early! The pastries here are some of the best you can find in the cities! The croissant dough has so many layers, is airy and perfectly flakey yet crispy. Both their sweet and savory croissants are great.

Dahlia started as a pop up but I hadn't heard of them until their storefront opening in January 2026. The photos alone are enough to make anyone who loves a good pastry curious, so I went on a Sunday morning around 10am. A good amount of people occupied the scattered picnic benches outdoors but there was no line inside and items came out quickly. Dahlia's branding is whimsical and creative and plays nicely off MN Nice Cream's color theme. You are immediately drawn to the pastry case, filled with picture perfect pastries, of which I am sometimes skeptical, for can they taste as good as they look? In Dahlia's case, I think allllmost. The Strawberry Rhubarb Bear Claw: A massive pastry with the classic finger like "bear claw" projections with their own numerous layers. The ratio of filling to croissant dough was decent; I definitely appreciated the strawberry rhubarb compote but was missing the reported vanilla pastry cream component. The outside was dusted in a brown sugar crumble with delicate laces of vanilla icing. It was beautifully made with excellent layers and unique flavors. I really liked the sourdough croissant too, so different than any croissant dough I've come across. I think the topping was just slightly stale and wish there had been a bit more cream in the filling, but otherwise a solid pastry. The Italian Sandwich: Actually beautiful looking and just as lovely to taste (as per my friend's review). House made focaccia hugs thinly sliced salami, capicola and ham along with pepper jack cheese, tomatoes, garlic aioli, arugula, and cold, crisp red onion. The sandwich didn't fall apart and seemingly nailed the proportions of each ingredient. I think paying $10.25 for a pastry is steep (black walnut bakery sells a bear claw for $5.25 that admittedly is better), however, I can appreciate the effort and energy that goes into these pastries. And especially being a new business operating only Thursday - Sunday, I think it is tolerable for now. I just worry that people may not make Dahlia a consistent part of their Sunday morning if they are paying nearly double for their treat.

A bit on the expensive side, $14, but delicious and cooked to perfection. Fried eggs, smoked bacon, cheddar cheese and tomato jam. Field greens w raspberry vinaigrette was special. Excellent combo, bursting w flavor. Service was epic and quick. If you want a cocktail, their menu looked tasty, but I didn't have one.

F+B, a collaboration between Farmer's Union and Birchwood, has opened near the Guthrie to bring their "Great Minnesota Get Together" favorites to the masses. Their star dish is the Sweet Corn Tomato BLT, which is one of the most delicious sandwiches I've ever had (pro tip: be sure to add an egg!). They have a ton of other fair favorites too, including a full range of both breakfast and lunch/dinner dishes (although they only serve breakfast on Saturdays and Sundays). You can order from the counter, but the easiest way to get your food is to place an order online for pickup (they will even do curbside pickup). They have a couple outdoor tables, and Gold Medal Park is just steps away (perfect for a picnic!).

All orders are don'e electronically and then you are sent a text to track it. Food is given to you in a bag, all food is in take out containers. They had a couple tables to sit at. I highly suggest if you order from here, you get it to go or through Uber eats or something. Unfortunately I was visiting and I took an uber there, so I sat and ate there. I love southern cooking, this food was okay, not incredible, My pork chop had a good flavor and the gravy was delicious, but the pork chop itself was very chewy. I could not cut it with the plastic knife I was given. I got collard greens and although it was a different flavor than what I was expecting, they were very good , I would order them again, they had a great flavors. My other side was corn bread. It was ordinary, not great nor bad. Came in a cupcake paper. On a scale from 1-5, I give the pork chop a 3, the collard greens a 5, and the corner bread a 3. No bathrooms, no extra napkins, no water, ...my container leaked gravy all over me when I took it out of the bag. I was a mess and with no rags or napkins. I want to give this place a good rating, I want them to succeed. If you want to try, only get it Togo and preferably idelivered.

    Great BBQ - 4 stars…read more Amos & Amos is a quirky place. And I have to admit, I love the weirdness. According to the owner, they've been around for 9 years. But the building itself is an old A&W drive-in fast food joint, built in 1953. Very cool! Most people seem to drive around the back of the building and pull into one of the parking spots that were "order from your car" spaces back in the day. Or you can just park on the street. Then you walk up to the window and place your order. Easy, right? This is where it starts to get weird. The sliding order window has 2 basement window well covers bolted over the sliding doors, like a big clam shell. The owners cut a flap in the bottom that only opens from the inside. Apparently, this is some sort of home-made do-it-yourself security thing. It seems to do the job...but you can't talk to them and they can't hear you until they slide open the door and then shout through the clam shell. And they don't seem to be in a hurry to do anything. I stood around like an idiot for a while, watching the lady, until she FINALLY slid the door open and talked to me. Kinda hard to hear through the big plastic clam shell. Speaking of shouting...you wait in your car or stand outside for 15 or 20 minutes and they yell when your food is ready. You can't hear what they're saying when they shout...but it all seems to workout okay. Like I said - quirky. LOW CARB: Okay, on to the most important thing: the food. I got the rib tip combo meal with a big hot link. Both were excellent. The rib tips were amazingly tender and lathered in generous amounts of a sweet sauce. Great taste. My hot link was huge and flavorful. For some reason, it reminded me of a big blood sausage. Good stuff. Unfortunately, you can't get any meat without sides. And all of the sides are plants. So in addition to my meats, I received and payed for unwanted carbohydrates of coleslaw, white bread toast, and a huge mountain starchy of fries. Those all came home with me to feed the Blue Jays and the Squirrels. That was kind of a waste of food but I had no choice about the high starch carbohydrate sides. I like this place. The meats are great. But it's a little frustrating if you eat low carb. It would be awesome if these guys sold meat by the pound, like many of the other BBQ joints. Oh, well. It was worth the stop. -Maxx

What prompted me to post my review at this moment is taking the time to come here during business hours and they're not open. Oops.
