Sunday they open at 10a for brunch and stay OPEN UNTIL 8pm. Ignore the APP saying open @ 4:00pm. They DO NOT stop after brunch then RE-OPEN AT4pm any longer read more

We did a family birthday celebration here. The 6 of us enjoyed a variety of cocktails to get us going. We shared the apps of fried calamari and crab cakes. Very tasty. Calamari had a nice crispy coating and crab cakes came with a white sauce everyone loved. I chose the teriyaki salmon as my entree. It came with sweet potato mash and sweet peas. Loved the potatoes but the peas in their pods were a bit too stringy to eat. Also wish my meal was a few degrees hotter but it was still tasty. There were several other entrees chosen at our table. The fish and chips were good but we wish we would have not gotten the iojo potato. The halibut was excellent and the surf and turf got very high ratings as well. Filet was cooked to perfection. As it was my daughter's birthday, she got a free brownie/ice cream dessert which was exceptional. The menu has many options I'd like to check out. Will be back soon. read more

I'd heard good things about this place and was excited to finally check it out. The parking lot is large and free. The outside looks nice. Inside was incredibly impressive - just beautiful!! Wow! We had a reservation and were seated right away. We ordered the crab cakes and they were really good! We also ordered a couple drinks. My husband loved his old fashioned and I ordered the Paloma. It was pretty good. For dinner, my Husband ordered the salmon. It was very good. I ordered the shrimp and grits and enjoyed it. I would've preferred if they put jalapeños in it versus the green onions on top. We shared a side of Brussel sprouts. They were amazing and one of the best things I tried tonight. I wish I had my own bowl because the serving was small for two. Our server and service was great! The bathrooms were clean but had an overpowering air freshener- the same one they use in portapotties. It was bad and almost made me lose my appetite. Other than that, and the fact that it was a little on the spendy side for apple valley, it was a really good experience! read more

The ambience of the restaurant is quite happening and the decor is fun. The food, despite generous portions and fresh ingredients, was just average, and lacked flavor. I'd say, the place is good for large corporate events, but is dissapointing to a foodie. The service was nice, location is easy to get to, and abundant parking around. read more

My family decided to try this spot out and we were absolutely blown away! Service was excellent, the staff was so friendly and helpful! They were very knowledgeable about the restaurant and seemed to genuinely love what they were doing. Food was fantastic and hot and fresh! A few members of my party have severe allergies and everyone was so great about it! Highly recommend the Farmer and the Fishmonger and we are definitely coming back! read more

The concept is pretty neat, three different business in one location, Farmer and the Fishmonger, Pizzeria Social, and Curiouser Coffee. I will say, this made it pretty difficult to find the restaurant. When we go there, we got seated right away. Being that it was Valentine's dinner so we had a special menu for food and drinks. It did take a little long for us to finally get dinner order in. When the food came out, it was nothing special. Pretty ordinary, and honestly not that great. My medium rare steak was basically well done and tough to chew. The scallops were just okay being that it was a special Surf and Turf dish. The environment was great, but honestly the food was awful. It reminds me why sometimes I don't like going out to eat any more. Would not recommend coming here for dinner. read more

An excellent choice for a birthday dinner! There is a mix of modern and industrial decor which creates a lux dinning feel. There are plenty of options for meat eater and vegans alike! The seasonal pumpkin cheesecake was the perfect birthday dinner top off. If you're a fish fan try the scallops and calamari. Ample parking available. read more

So we happened upon their soft launch tonight as they have just (as in yesterday) moved from their stand alone spot to what was Curiouser Coffee next to Pizza Social. Menu keeps getting pared down but they have kept the favorites - calamari, lobster roll, burgers, etc. Saddest is the loss of the amazing bar space at their old restaurant across the way. But they had so much space in the restaurant and apart from holiday parties, they never seemed too busy in that huge dining room. Also sad how the oyster selection has been pared down from 8 to 3 to now one. It makes sense but it also means one less special feature about the restaurant. Service was phenomenal and the food came out really fast. Hopefully this consolidation means the restaurant will continue. read more

It was a beautiful day outside, so of course I spent most of the time enjoying the food and drinks on the patio with friends. We shared everything. Dry Aged Pork Chop: Cooked perfectly and had a such a nice dish overall. This may have been my fav item. Lobster Roll: this looked good and was solid. It isn't the best lobster roll. I ordered a side of Brussel sprouts. I would say many more things on the menu that are better. Crab Cakes: fried crab cakes w/ remoulade. These were solid. I liked the addition of the remoulade. Grilled Salmon - This salmon was cooked really nicely and I love asparagus. I would get this again for sure! Arancini: This dish changes seasonally - they are Italian rice balls generally made with wine risotto & fried. This time they had a seafood mix which had a slight kick as well. They were really delicious. Love!! Oyster Platter: This was a shared plate with the table. It was super fun trying different oysters. The below were the ones on our platter. It changes up * Red: Madeline Point - Salty * Black- Jack Point - Mild * Green: Royal - Salty * Silver: Moshier - Briny * Blue: Norumbega - Mild * Yellow: Fin de Le Bac - Salty Desserts: Chocolate Chip Ice Cream Sandwich - cookie was a bit hard. Brownie A La Mode - this was it! Yum! Drinks: Pisco sour: Cape gooseberry, lemon balm syrup, raspberry infused St. Germain, Pisco Brandy, Bison Grass Vodka, & lemon. Shrub Gin & Tonic : Mirco borage blossoms, citrus microgreens, lavender, sipsmith lemon drizzle gin, & fevertree tonic. Absolutely loved the cocktails. read more

I believe the suburbs have great places to eat - I really do. I think we can get away from the drudgery of chain restaurants without having to drive 30 minutes away. But Farmer And The Fishmonger have a long way to go before meeting that caliber of dining experience. Let me start with the good. The interior was very cool - industrial, large, open, and lively. It looked beautiful and just a really nice space to be in. And the happy hour specials? Fantastic. 241 pours on wine and beer from 4-5p, half price oysters? I won't lie, that was what incentivized me to come, and I might just come back for that. But that's about all the good that Farmer and The Fishmonger has to offer. While the oyster selection was fairly good and it's rotating so there's plenty of variety, the actual dishes had a lot to be desired. My friend ordered the lobster roll, and I ordered the shrimp roll, both with jojos (a potato wedge, essentially) for our sides. The potatoes were actually well seasoned and pretty damn tasty, but the actual rolls...had a lot to be desired. The lobster was not properly deshelled for my friend, and she found multiple pieces of shell still stuck on her lobster. The shrimp roll was okay, but the shrimp itself were fairly tiny and flavor-wise, it tasted like it was just smothered with bland mayonnaise. And portion wise, for $22-$28, the roll itself was tiny. Farmer and The Fishmonger has the potential to be a real gem in the south metro, with an innovative cocktail menu and the promise of fresh seafood. However, this experience didn't showcase any of that potential, and left me with a disappointing dining experience. read more

Unique atmosphere and menu. Really enjoyed our meals and although not cheap, it wasn't horribly high priced. Maybe I am too heavily influenced by my eighth grade history teacher who would not give 100% scores on writing assignments because "there's ALWAYS something that could be done better, no matter how good you do it...." So the highest score he'd give was 99%... But I can't give it a 5, it wasn't mind blowing, but definitely a place we will go back to and highly recommend. If I could rate 4.5, that I'd do. read more

Yikes! First couldn't find the place, because it's not located at its address anymore. Instead a Burger place is there. FATF is across the parking lot, but the restaurant has 3 different names? Is this a pizza place? Finally got inside and waited 15 minutes before our server arrived to greet our table. There were only 3 other tables on a Saturday night, not sure what the delay was. The inside looked great, but the service was awful. Our drinks were terrible with way too much alcohol to even enjoy. Never coming here again. read more

I meant to write this review a while ago but a big thanks to Yelp for reminding me about this dining experience. First of all, I was a little worried about dining in Apple Valley after seeing some of the reviews, granted Farmer and the Fishmonger had only been open about a month after my siblings and I decided to visit. Pictures of the food on Yelp looked OK to good but some of the reviews had me worried about service, especially with the labor issues others in the industry have been facing and 2021 was the year of the "great resignation". Suffice to say, one of the things that impressed me the most about FATF was our server - she was great - friendly and very attentive (gold star!). Now on to the other parts of the experience ... again, let's be clear, this is Apple Valley versus North Loop or Uptown but the prices don't reflect the location. I'm not saying the south metro can't have a nice, cool, hip place to eat but it's a MUCH different place to go and the prices are almost a premium to comparable Minneapolis or St. Paul restaurants ($38 for a lobster roll?!!) When I first arrived, parking wasn't a problem because there's a big surface lot that's shared with another restaurant. The bar was packed because it was the tail end of happy hour and from what I've seen, the happy hour prices are actually pretty reasonable, plus the drinks are good! That's another interesting part of the FATF experience - the drink menu is very good with unique, craft cocktails and the G&T was served in a gauntlet. Again, the prices match the quality of the drinks and it reminded me of prices at Parlour or the Hewing versus having to cross the river heading south on Hwy. 77. As for the food, it was good, well most of it. I recommend the crab cakes as a starter - two large patties with a lot of lump crab meat. They aren't very dense like Oceanaire's crab cakes but it's still a good portion. We also ordered the shrimp toast and while there were a lot of shrimp that were seasoned nicely, it was a pretty boring dish - literally, toasted grilled bread (think baguette's) with shrimp on top. My sister ordered the Cioppino, which was perfectly fine, but my brother and I both noticed the broth looked pretty basic and you couldn't really tell there was much tomato in the broth. My younger brother ordered the lobster roll, which looked good but again for $38, that's a steep premium to Smack Shack's lobster roll for $28. I will say FATF's lobster roll is a larger portion but still hard to justify the price, IMHO. My other brother has always been a standard type of person and I knew he would order the bacon wrapped meatloaf which comes with mashed potatoes. Suffice to say, I wouldn't have ordered it and I think he was regretting it when we left because it was dry and not very good. I was torn between the fried seafood platter and the seafood boil. Ultimately my better senses kicked in and I decided not to overload on grease and oil so I got the seafood boil which was very good and a large portion. I think this was the clear winner of the night and I see value for $34 since you get crab legs (very hard to crack since it's smothered in creole butter and other spicy seasonings), shrimp, mussels, corn on the cob, andouille sausage and potatoes. I was only able to eat about half of my meal so I had leftovers the next day (or two). I will say the seafood boil's seasoning is spicy and I think most Minnesota palate's would find it over seasoned and too hot. We also ordered some accoutrements - popovers and cheddar biscuits. The popovers were a little overcooked but the biscuits were very good and the cry baby honey that came with them were money! Overall, it was nice to dine with my siblings again and I especially liked trying a new restaurant outside of the city. The drinks were a highlight and some of the seafood dishes were good but be prepared to pay for it! That said, I'd be willing to go back especially for happy hour! read more

I was invited last Friday night (uh get that song out of my head now) to the Farmer and the Fishmonger to participate in their soft launch. This new place is owned by the same people who own the restaurant across the parking lot (Mezcalito Butcher) and other concepts (Bourbon Butcher, Italian Butcher, etc.) located across the south metro. Now living in the Midwest I will never pass by an opportunity to get a chance to enjoy fresh seafood, especially from the coasts. So I was excited to try a new concept, especially since this one promised to focus on great seafood and great cocktails. Fishmonger's menu offers two different paths to take - the farmer will be more Midwest fare focusing on classic steakhouse offerings while the fishmonger is your seafood side with a little bit of southern hospitality mixed in. First impressions walking in - this place raises farmhouse chic to an 11 (any Spinal Tap people out there?). Reclaimed wood, black piping, old fashioned light bulbs that glow a warm gold - this place really takes this newfound love of refurbishment and makes it lux and welcoming. It was pretty cool that our chairs were old artist/work chairs, something like you would find in a factory or something. The other thing that catches the eye right away as you walk in is their spectacular two level bar. Yes, the barkeeps actually have to use a ladder to access some of the bottles at the top, it is that big! It reminded me of a rich person's old-timey library but instead of books it was filled with bottles of booze. As a proud home bar owner, I was blown away - this is the bar I wished I had at home! Speaking of the bar, lets go right into the drinks. The menu has lots of the common staples of a trendy bar (think Manhattan, Old Fashioned, Mojito, Daiquiri, Paloma, etc.) but done with the commitment of this place - farm to table. That means fresh juice, no mixes, and a keen attention to detail. The salts are smoked, the fruit garnish is marinated, the juices have been infused. It is a really neat place to try a classic and see how they put a spin on it. We tried a drink that was reminiscent of a margarita (but made with mezcal, rosemary, and black pepper) and it was very good. Now on to the food. My wife and I are seafood lovers so of course we went the fishmonger route. I picked the Fried Fish Platter (a mix of fish, shrimp, and oysters) while my wife chose the Bacon Wrapped Scallops. My dish was great. I always order fried fish if I am feeling it when I dine out because it is such a pain to make correctly at home. The batter was a classic beer batter that complimented the fish and shrimp. The shrimp (or should I say prawns, seriously I could have just eaten a platter of those) were huge and the piece of fish was a nice, meaty portion of whitefish. Both were so good dipped in that rich beer batter. Finally, the oysters were covered in a cornmeal batter that worked because it prevented the oyster from getting slimy when cooked. The dish came with a side of homemade jojos (thick cut french fries) and homemade remoulade sauce and cocktail sauce (some of the best cocktail sauce I have had in my life, fresh and fiery, so good). Compared to something that you can maybe get at Red Lobster for maybe only $6-7 cheaper, there is no argument. It would be like choosing to eat at McDonalds instead of Manny's. Yes, this place is a little more expensive than other restaurants in the area, but the quality of the food is exceptionally better. The portions are also very filling which makes the price point well received by me. And hey, fresh, high-quality seafood isn't cheap to begin with anyways. My wife's scallops were done well and came with a side of corn succotash. It was a very healthy and light dish that paired well with my heavier choice so we shared bites from each to balance. We also tried a side of their crunchy brussel sprouts. They were so good, they made brussel sprouts appealing (of course they were loaded with bacon and an awesome honey Dijon mustard sauce to help but who are we to judge?). So final remarks. The level of quality and attention to detail the food and drink exhibited really lives up to the standards of a great farm to table restaurant concept. I am always wary when visiting these places because "farm to table" can be a really gray area. You might find one item on your plate that qualifies but it still qualifies as such. At the Farmer and the Fishmonger, that is not the case. You will be hard-pressed to find items that have been processed or that are not made in-house. There is a lot of care and creativity that goes into each dish and drink and you can tell. The people who work here are proud of their food, passionate about what they do, and it makes every bite and sip that much better. read more

We had a wonderful time at Farmer and the Fishmonger. We love the ambiance with the leather seats and large bar and bar area seating. We had the pleasure of meeting Justin who was our bartender for the evening and what a treat that was! Justin was well versed in the menu and in spirits and cocktails as a whole. He made us two cocktails from the menu and we challenged him to make us something weird and delicious that wasn't on the menu and he absolutely delivered. The calamari was delicious and it wasn't too rubbery or sandy - the sauces it came with were sublime. We loved the mussels - they were very plump and not gritty as some mussels can be. The porchetta sandwich was different but flavorful and I was a big fan of the house made chips for the side. A huge thank you to Justin for delicious drinks and great company. I can't wait to go back! read more

I feel we ordered the wrong thing. I thought we were being bold by ordering the Teriyaki Salmon with snap peas on a sweet potato mash. It sounded great, but did not taste as great together. I felt the flavors were battling and I enjoyed them better separately than together. I would try something else next time. The service was good. read more

So, I was so excited to try this place, it's new and fresh and they serve oysters!!! We had party of 12, so I think they were overwhelmed. Service was lacking and we had to remind waitress a few times about things she had forgotten about. The food was good, but it's on the spendy side. Atmosphere was on point!! When all said n done, we will be back. read more

My husband and I dined here for the first time, and we had an overall great experience. The cocktails tasted great, the only issue I had with my gin and tonic was the garnish. There were little pieces of something that kept getting stuck in my teeth. We got oysters and the crab cake for apps, both were really good. He got the scallops and I got the tuna noodle hot dish. The tuna was incredible, a big seared rare tuna steak on top a veg of well seasoned noodles, pea purée, and topped with salt and vinegar chips - highly recommend! The scallops were delicious, but the garnish was just ok, a little bland. The service was amazing, I wish I could remember her name. The biggest issue we had was with our table. We were sat at a small two top that was so close to other tables on either side that we all kept bumping into each other. I'm 6 feet tall and my husband is 6'6, so we were very cramped. It looks like they have some good looking specials for happy hour that we can't wait to come back for. They have really good value for what you get. I was happily surprised to see good portion sizes, great tasting food, and decent prices here. We will definitely be back! read more

Boy, this place really went downhill since it joined with Pizza Social and the coffee place. The scallops were good but the rice it came with was lukewarm and bland.

The service was awful and it was still just as expensive as when they were their own restaurant. Would not recommend. read more

I have been here several times. Always great service and good food. The drinks are delicious.

Still eating fish and wanted to try a new place with a lot of variety. I got the shrimp and grits and removed the meat that I didn't realize was in there. It was very good. The greens were spicy, guessing the spice is pepper, not sure but I only had a few bites. I started with the white fish dip appetizer. Can it ever really be bad? And I loved the lavosh crackers, nice and thin and not hard on your teeth. The ginger ale was some of the best I had. Can't wait to try other meaty items. Great service from Ramona. Very comfortable seating. read more

We made a reservation here for Thanksgiving on Open Table. They called a handful of days before to say they hadn't remembered to turn off reservations for Thanksgiving. That was it.

Oh where to begin. I took my partner here for his birthday because I always see it when I'm at the gym and it seemed like a nice restaurant with decent enough reviews. Boy were the reviews inaccurate! We ordered the steak tips as an app which were fine but there were too many fatty parts/tendons. Then, we ordered the fried chicken sandwich and this is where things go downhill quickly. This sandwich was advertised as an apple maple glaze but he it is actually an applesauce consistency on top friend chicken. something tasted funky - but I'm not sure exactly what it was. We told our waitress and she was short with us saying that we knew what we ordered. It was NOT a glaze and trust me, I know what a glaze is! I didn't even finish half of it. I wish I got the waitress' name because she was so unaccommodating and added to this unfortunate experience. The only good thing was my Shirley temple, and you can get that anywhere. Anyways, please save your coins and go to Chilis or any equivalent restaurant in the city! This was a 1/10 experience :( read more

So freakin good. It's been a couple weeks since we have been and I still am asking to go back for drinks and apps. We went for my husbands birthday after hearing about how great this place is. Make sure you make a RESERVATION! We were lucky enough to make one earlier in the day. I perused the cocktail menu and ended up getting a mojito which was sooooooo good. They make their drinks STRONG. This was like a 2 in 1. I was feeling no pain by the bottom. We ordered crab cakes as everyone was raving about them. I'm not sure how I felt about them. It was more a Mayo like crab salad that was dumped into a pan and flipped quickly. Not the normal crab cake. I wouldn't lump it into a crab cake honestly. Was it good? Yeah....but not at all what I was expecting. No lumps of crab or anything like that. Everything was shredded really fine. Husband ordered coq au vin which I was a little salty about as I make that and I was like..good luck dude because mine is amazing. I ordered the surf and turf and father in law ordered steak and fries. Food came out quickly, I believe our waitress was Sarah and she was amazing! Super attentive and knowledgeable on everything. My steak is quite honestly the best steak I have ever gotten in a restaurant. My husband tried it and agreed. His Coq au vin was good, but as predicted it didn't beat mine--which just help with my ego..lol Father in laws steak was fantastic also. I want to go back and try so many other things. They have so many great items on their menu. I would highly recommend going and trying it out. Everyone raves about their oysters but that isn't my thing so I didn't try. read more

Somewhat overpriced in my opinion. They have done a decent job improving the look of the old Ruby Tuesdays, but it remains a fairly open space. I had the Halibut, which was okay, not particularly flavorful, and just a little on the dry side. For the price, I would have expected something special--especially someplace with Fishmonger in the name. Others' meals were similarly average, as was the service. Not bad, but not worth the price. read more

Can't say enough good things about our experience! read more

Please read this review. *note: I am an eater not a writer* To start the service is amazing. This is my second time here & each time service was amazing, from drink suggestions, food suggestions & making sure I was catered to. Now the food: each time I came I got the sea food boil , AMAZING. Please remember it's a creole boil, full of flavor & spice. My kids got the chicken strips, it seemed to be box breaded thin sliced chicken breasts.. my kids hated it. Lastly we got the fried sea food platter, yuck... I'm not a huge fan of beer batter, but to be no seasoning really added to the disappoint. Overall I'm giving this review a 4/5 because the service is truly amazing & the boil is so worth it but everything else was such an unseasoned let down. read more

A new restaurant its very bright and well laid out on the inside, though quite loud. Parking is a challenge as the lot is shared with an adjoining restaurant. The service is quite good too; had a hard working waiter who was very easy going. He was a bit overwhelmed though; everyone has issues now finding enough staff so it meant long gaps with no drink service, etc. Some frustrations were ordering an appetizer and paying full price but it was to include lefse. Only after it came were were told the cook who makes it is ill. Understandable but still paid full price after it was brought out. They were quite strict with no substitutions. One member of the party wanted to sub mashed potatoes for vegetables but they'd have none of it. Mashed potatoes come with meatloaf, but by 7 pm they were out of meatloaf. Were told early on sometimes restaurants don't like to do a substitution. Pretty disappointed. You'd think mashed potatoes would even be cheaper than vegetables for the restaurant too; that experience makes me unlikely to return for a while. Food quality though was good; excellent burger; comes with jojos which were very flavorful. Excellent desserts too. However you go here, you are going to pay. Very expensive; case in point, rolls. $9. Many places give you free bread (price worked into other things) but you get 4 rolls for $9. Ouch. Great rolls, but $9? Appetizers are on the limited side but also very expensive. $16 for meatballs. Overall the food was good, but the inflexibility and the price on the higher end, the experience wasn't quite what I hoped, but will definitely try again after its been open a while. read more
