They helped us plan the perfect menu of small bites, while taking in our feedback about our guests. Delivery, setup and takedown was perfectly on time and Nicole was a pleasure to talk with and work with! The food from Chowgirls is phenomenal! The whole agency was raving and asking where it was from - we even had a couple of people want to use them for their upcoming celebrations! Some highlights for me included: * The hot chocolate tarte was rich and delicious - and it truly was a hot chocolate flavor! * The apple manchego sandwiches were the perfect blend of fall flavors, and everyone was shocked it wasn't a dry sandwich with all the toppings! It was a crowd favorite. * the steak skewers were perfectly cooked and tender, even served cold! * The mezze platter was delicious and filling, with some unique flavors Overall, I would recommend Chowgirls to anyone and would definitely use them again!

I found this company using Yelp, and I'm very glad I did. I have events in our Bloomington, MN…read moreoffice twice a quarter and I generally bring in sandwiches or pizza. This event was geared towards upper management and I needed something nicer, thanks to Minneapolis Catering Company I got it. Because this is a catering company I'm going to depart from the Good/Bad/Ugly format and instead look at the key factors that would make me use them again. Menu Selection: They have a decent menu with a number of different levels to choose from. My selections were: Beef Burgundy - You could taste the wine and the richness of the sauce was tempered by the basmati rice. Salmon with Hollandaise - This got more than a few compliments. The fis was moist and the sauce was lemony without being overpowering. Chicken with a lemon butter sauce - This was ok, I wish it had a little more body to the sauce, but I may have just been craving chicken picatta. It was moist and that's what counts. Mixed veggies - Not overcooked, seasoned lightly Basmati Rice - Simple, made a great foil for the rich sauces Potatoes - OH MY GOD - I think they were poached in angel tears and then sprinkled with crack. They were outstanding. Seriously, get the potatoes! Service: They were prompt, efficient and had everything ready 10 minutes ahead of schedule. This gave me breathing room and nothing felt rushed. Price: They worked within my budget and I was happy with the results. The Short of it: If you need a nice lunch catered in the Bloomington area, call them. I was happy I did.

They kept the food fresh and hot during the event and then left the extras. 5 star service and food for sure!

All I heard from my 160 guests at the wedding I just hosted was "who catered this"? " they're excellent" "so good" "I got their card" "the food was sooo good" "I'm going to use them" "wow, where did you find these people" Seriously, they did an excellent job, the food was great, the staff was great, they did exactly what they said they would do when they said they would do it for a super reasonable price. I fully recommend them and will absolutely use them again when the opportunity arises

Our server came over and greeted us promptly upon our sitting down. He quickly took our drinks and…read moresaid he would return with waters. We got our drinks on his return, buy no water. He then took our food orders and apologized for not bringing waters. He then came back with waters and shortly thereafter with our food. However, there were hiccups, 2 of us were supposed to get waffle fries only 1 did while the other got regular fries and a 3rd in our group was supposed to get chicken on her salad and got none. When we talked to our server about it he was extremely apologetic and said he should have written everything down, but he made it right. This place is definitely worth a stop if in the area.

I stumbled across this wonderful restaurant yesterday and was amazed to see that a vitalist-themed…read morerestaurant had found its way to Minnesota. We stopped by for a light lunch today - the Japanese bowl, Aloe Detox drink, and an espresso. The bowl was super fresh with perfectly cooked salmon on a bed of black rice, with avocado, seaweed, vegetables, and condiments. It tasted amazing and we honestly felt revitalized for the experience. The Aloe drink was great and the espresso was really well done - not too bitter and a nice crema on the top. We're looking forward to going back and sampling our way through the menu. Nice location too - across the street from a lake and next door to a high-end looking art gallery. We sat outside and watched the world go past as we enjoyed the wonderful food. Our waiter was warm and helpful too!. Oh and everything is gluten-free and organic too!

An attractive pleasant dining spot with outdoor seating and modern interior. The menu of food and drinks is vast, especially the latest trend in mixing non-coffee drinks with fruit flavors. There is also a cooler with sodas and real root beer. Some sandwiches have a little spice, not to worry, even some Scandinavians would be able to brag of having "just a little smear", so as not to feel decadent. Creative sandwiches, Buffalo turkey with a creamy sauce, cheese on toasted bun, you get the vibe.
