Kramarczuk's was my first time trying Ukrainian food, and they have a lot of easily accessible…read moreoptions, so I didn't know what to get and just trusted them. I got the borscht soup, and they complemented it with bread. It's a nice flavorful soup. I went during summer, but during the winter this would definitely hit the spot. My favorite was the cabbage roll with tomato sauce. I got half tomato and half onion, but the tomato sauce was my favorite part. I also had to get a perogi. I've had a couple of these before, but this one tasted amazing. I didn't try any, but they also have hot dogs made with their sausages, and I had some at the Twins game, so I'm assuming they taste amazing too. Service is great, and it's all cafeteria style.

A TC institution! Excellent meat shop. Solid cafeteria style restaurant…read more The goulash is really good comfort food, worth getting some to take home. The mushroom pierogi are so also good, but sadly only available for eat in. Otherwise, most of the menu is available for takeout. The booth seats are old, so a bit saggy, so that's good to be aware of that if you have issues with seating and plan to eat at the restaurant (older folks, people with back problems, this is for you...).

Been stopping by Nelson's for years! Need the perfect lunch...look no further!…read more Street parking available nearby! This is a no frills, but well-oiled machine of a deli! The line is usually out the door during the lunch rush, but don't worry...they'll get you through quick! Well-staffed with people that are excited to see you and excited to make you something delightful! Sandwiches (warm or cold) and salads are the name of the game! Choose your line, order it up as is or custom, and grab your soda/chips to make it a meal and you are set! On my latest visit, I had the Old Fashioned, which was perfect! Made a few swaps including a french roll, no tomatoes, add pickles! Perfect lunch size, great value, and quality ingredients! There's a reason people will wait in line for this spot! I can't recommend it enough!

They are located just a block or two away from Como park which has picnic tables available to have a nice lunch outside!

Everything I had here was amazing but my fav was the egg sandwich with bacon and a side of hash browns. I loved that this place is so communal and a safe place for everyone! I highly recommend and can't wait to go again.

I figured it…read morewould be busy because every time we've driven by, there's always a line , if you know, you know! Ordering was quick, the cashier was friendly, and the deli has a comfortable atmosphere. We waited about 5-10 minutes for our sandwiches. I ordered the egg and cheese with a hash brown, and I really enjoyed it. I'd definitely order it again. I also tried the dark chocolate sea salt cookie, which was delicious. The space had more seating than I expected, which was a nice surprise. However, it does get pretty cramped once it fills, which happens fast. If we visit again, we'd probably take our food to go. I also appreciated the free street parking on weekends. Overall, a great experience, and I can see why there's always a line!

I read about Clancey's and we decided to give it a try for lunch. There are two parts to…read moreClancey's. On one side is a meat market with a variety of cuts of steaks, lamb, and other meats, which all looked fresh and quite nice. They also have a variety of items such as canned goods, pasta, eggs, etc. on the shelves opposite the meat counter. The entire place is quite sunny, pleasant, and cozy. On the other side is the eat-in, take-out deli sandwiches, that are made to order. The quality of the ingredients is excellent. The bread is freshly made (crispy baguette type) and you have a choice of Roast Beef, Roast Turkey, Tuna Salad, Smoked Ham, or Corned Beef. All sandwiches are $16.50 each (including tax) and come with a choice of mayonnaise, spicy stone ground mustard, red leaf lettuce, thin sliced red onion, salt, pepper, oil, vinegar, raw grated horseradish, pickled jalapeno, and roasted bell pepper. The default includes all toppings so if you don't want everything, be sure to specify what you do NOT want. Surprisingly, they do not carry any diet soda, nor do they stock any national brands (only local pop). There is a large menu on the wall, and you order at the counter and pick up the order (no table service). The food was attractively presented, and very, very good. My only gripe (besides the lack of diet pop) is that it's on the expensive side for lunch. Two sandwiches, a couple of bags of chips, and a couple of cans of pop will easily top $40, although I'd say the quality is top-notch.

Clancy's has great sandwiches and supports the community with big hearts and concern. At lunch,…read morethere can be a mad rush for their classic roast beef sandwich, but the staff handles the crowd with efficiency and detail. I was on the street in front of Clancy's when one of their customers was mis-identified as an officer of an organization that was terrorizing Minneapolis. It had nothing to do with Clancy's! As I tried to get to my car, people yelled the most obscene and disgusting epitaphs at the couple in front of me. I was just walking down Grand Avenue. They were even spitting at this innocent individual. As a liberal who marched for civil rights and against the war in Vietnam during the 1960s and 1970s, I was horrified. Blaming Clancy's is ignorant, and an integral part of how this country is dismantling. Clancy's Meats & Fish is important to our neighborhood, and represents the kindness and empathy that has been representative of Minnesota for decades. Give them your support.

Stopped by for lunch and it was so good…read more They have daily specials, and the portions are no joke. Even a half sandwich is a huge, very filling serving. Everything is made fresh to order. They slice the meat and cheese right there and you can fully customize your sandwich, which I love. The service was phenomenal. Super friendly and welcoming, which made the whole experience even better. Cute shop and they also have a great selection of Italian products in the shop, plus their own ready-made items like homemade frozen pizzas and take-and-bake entrees, which is such a nice bonus. It's takeout only, but they make it easy with online ordering. Prices are very reasonable for the quality and portion size. This place is truly a hidden gem.

While it's got zero space for sit down dining, they are on top of their takeout game. The staff were efficient and filled orders quickly. I found the prices fair, and I look forward to a return visit to try out some other items. I really enjoyed the soup and see they post a new daily soup/pasta item to Facebook. What we tried: - Italiano sub 3/5 (bread was harder/crustier than I would have liked & sub was so wide it was hard to fit your mouth around it) - Chicago roast beef sub 4/5 (hefty amount of beef) - Daily soup (5/5) chicken vegetable (really great flavor and wide assortment of veg with huge chicken chunks) - Carrot cake (5/5) - Tiramisu (5/5).
