    Pierogis
    Ashley C.

    This is our second visit and we are glad we went! The atmosphere inside is so nice, service was super friendly. We had the cucumber Collins drink, and it blew us away. Super good. We got the pierogi's and the fried chicken sandwich. Pierogis were so good. One complaint though is it said "prosciutto" in the description and there were literally 4 tiny cubes of prosciutto bits so that felt a little bit cheap. I also didn't expect them to be deep fried, but they were so good. We also shared the fried chicken sandwich which was super good, loved the chicken and the breading. I think it was missing the hot honey but it wasn't too much of a loss as everything else on it was so darn good. The biggest reason I have to knock it a star is that it is SO loud. It's a nice place, but it'd be hard to want to go for a date night because of the noise.

    Entrees

    First time to this restaurant and I don't know why I haven't been here before Totally worth the trek out to St Michael to this lovely farm to table restaurant We had the best server Devan- so friendly and knowledgeable and knew how to give the best service and divide the bill up between couples without us having to ask!!! The dinner was great- all 6 of us ordered different entrees and enjoyed them all Cocktails were great, I really enjoyed the little sippers , basically a tasting of 6 different ones! Dessert had few choices but the chocolate cake with the coffee ice cream was hit- !

    Fried pickles :)

    The vibe in this place is still fabulous but I feel their prices don't match the quality of the dishes any longer. I know Covid really hurt restaurants in many different aspects... it's unfortunate. Their cocktails are still awesome but I just didn't love the chicken I ordered. It seemed to have a pre-made taste - like I got the last one of the night and it was dry/rubbery. Lacked flavor too. Bland. For the cost, it just was disappointing. Their menu needs an overhaul. I still haven't gotten over the removal of the schnitzel from their menu. It was so so good. Great, balanced dish.

    They do have a parking lot. We debated between two places close to each other. We ended up here. The happy hour menu was really fun and my favorite part. I did enjoy my bowl as well simple because I love beets. HH menu - Tennessee hot fried pickles ! Yes please. Duck bacon wantons - they are from maple leaf farms. Same as the state fair, and various other restaurants use them in the twin cities. Fries were mid. I got the Grain Bowl for dinner with salmon. It was okay. I loved the addition of beets but it was missing some flavor.

    French dip
    Jerry S.

    Had a great experience. The food was excellent along with the service. Limited menu but everything we had was tasty. The French dip was excellent with just enough horseradish sauce.

    Main Street Farmer is one of the top spots in the Northwest outer Metro offering farm to table craft food and a great selection of drinks! The menu changes quarterly with specials peppering the menu frequently. Family favorites include: hot nashville and the chicken sandwich, various burgers, pressed chicken or flat iron steak. mushroom risotto, bourbon meatloaf, the fresh fish as well as some amazing salads and sides including brussel sprouts and some crazy good fries. They have two private rooms for 12-15 that separate from the main dining room and their bar is pretty awesome for a small city! Reservations are a must and always ask the staff to help if you are new they are great! Well done Main Street farmer... you make living in the burbs palatable.

    I thought after so many years I should update my review of Main Street Farmer. We have eaten here infrequently since our first visit. It seems the menu has taken a little different direction, and I consider it for the better. I ordered the molasses glazed tri-tip w/ corn bread and coleslaw. It was very good! My wife had the Frenched chicken and she loved it. She said she would lick the plate if she could. The place was lively and fun. Our waitress was very friendly and attentive. I am upgrading my review, as this experience was much better.

    Autumn Ancient Grain Bowl
    Jorie J.

    We had never tried this place, we were actually on our way to Chipotle and decided to stop. They have a really decent mock tail lists which is impressive. Those of us that don't drink are often forgotten! They have a seasonal menu but what I ordered was so delicious Autumn Ancient Grain Bowl. The only complaint was we waited a significant amount of time bc our server forgot to put our order in. It was a gorgeous night and we were outside, so we were not upset. She was very apologetic. We only got an "I'm sorry", I would have hoped they would at least comp our mock tails.

    Tries hard to be hip but the food is over cooked and hence dried out. The flavors fall flat with an over reliance on onions.

    Great night for a patio date and light fare. Popular local spot. And for good reason. Sorry no…read morepictures but put your imagination station to use. Ambiance is nice! Amelia, our server, was terrific! Accommodating, friendly, and welcoming. Patio was busy but she got to us! Enjoying a 1/2 price bottle of wine and appetizers. Steak bites were perfect, asked for medium rare and they delivered: tender and so good. However, the fake onion rings on the steak bites could seriously get lost, keep the sautéed onions and peppers, bechamel sauce. Also, their fries (the other app) are dangerously good... fresh cut, tender crisp. Consistently good. Served with a spicy mayo, which is so-so. Wine selection was fine... for 1/2 price bottle, can't complain. Pinot Noir, light yet delicious. Not super loud on the patio but is by a highway, yet fairly sheltered from noise. Recommend for a midweek patio date night. They have a decent dining room and bar. Live music events, look 'em up and check 'em out, y'all!

    One of the worst dining experiences I've had in a while…read more We had a reservation for 11:00 and were seated on time, but our food didn't come out until after 12:50, even though we ordered right away. The service and kitchen timing were unbelievably slow. Several tables around us were also clearly frustrated by the delays. I've honestly never waited almost two hours for food, especially for a pretty basic breakfast. When the food finally arrived, it wasn't worth the wait. Everything felt very basic and under seasoned, and half of us didn't even finish our meals. It really seemed like they were completely unprepared for brunch service. They were also already out of caramel rolls, which was disappointing. Overall, a really frustrating experience between the extreme wait time, poor execution, and lackluster food.

Great food, good vibes, and excellent service, but not as special as I had hoped. I brought a client here and we sat at the chefs counter. We enjoyed a range of starters and each had our own main. My biggest sadness is that the halibut was way over salted. The bison tartare was pretty good, and the tomato salad was great. My client loved her pasta. We were both a little disappointed in the squash blossoms special which really felt like a miss (so many great things to do with these... The preparation they chose was weird). The cocktails and wine were excellent and our server was lovely. The view of the kitchen was really fun. Just not as thoughtful overall as I would expect for the amazing reviews I had heard from others.

Back to Pink Ivy. The service is quality. Our reserved table was ready when we arrived. The reservation policy may seem "strict", but if you can live with needing to provide a 24 cancel notice, I think you will find the service is good because the business doesn't get slammed by unexpected high demand. Wait person timing was off a tad when we first sat down. It felt a little rushed as we order our drinks and considered a starter. In fairness, a table of 16-20 followed us in so the wait person may have been doing us a favor. But it did influence my four star rating. Otherwise I'd have given 5 stars. Great care was taken when wait person checked for allergies. Not just asked, but noted and went to the kitchen to confirm. During the meal, flatware was changed out between courses, water refilled without disruption and the order arrived on time and all at one time. Our group enjoyed the halibut, salmon, and chicken bacon meatball items. Everyone loved their meals. A few of us ordered and split salads. We passed on desserts. The menu range may not be pages long, but all the usual suspects are there; salads, fish, poultry, beef, and pasta. And I know the chef rotates items on the menu. I encourage you to plan ahead. Reservations fill up days in advance. I think you'll find it worth the extra planning. PS my ratings are adjusted for the type of venue. These are not Michelin stars.
