    Alpine burger
    Heather R.

    Red Cow is a staple for us. We've eaten at most of the locations around the city! We recently visited the Edina location for the Alpine burger. OMG, this did not disappoint. They use Raclette cheese for the dipping portion and it is so good. I would recommend sharing this burger as it is extremely rich and delicious! Our server was THE BEST. I'm so mad I've forgotten his name but we were ready to attend his family's Thanksgiving. What a fun night!!

    Inside of Buffalo Chicken Wrap- I did no celery but this was delicious!!! Great flavor! Get a cup of the blue cheese to dip!

    This was my second time to this location and both times, I was very pleased! The parking can be a bit tricky, depending on the day/time. The ambiance is relaxed, like you could get away with where a button down shirt or a dress, OR more casual with jeans. This would be a good first date spot! For my larger friends, there are tables as well and booths. It took the hostess a few minutes to realize I was there but she was very friendly. My waitress and the gentleman who brought my food out were truly delightful! So staff here was great! Food: GET THE BURRATA!! Oh my goodness, I was told this is a newer item! It's cool, creamy, fresh, with just a touch of salt! The bread was crispy but also soft. I truly enjoyed this dish as a starter! I got the buffalo wrap without celery. This has a bit of dill in it. A welcome surprise in flavor! Get a side of the blue cheese to dip! The truffle fries were crispy and had a light flavor! The Parmesan and chives really added to these! Definitely worth getting in my opinion! I'll definitely be back a third time!

    The "ultimate burger" pink with lettuce, tomato, onion, substituting, white American for cheddar cheese, and adding a little yellow mustard may have been the best burger I've had. Certainly in the top 5 all time. The meat had great seasoning very flavorful and juicy. Highest recommendation! Burgers do not come with any side, which was fine by me. The grilled soup with tomato cheese was very good. And the breakfast burrito with pork Carnitas was delicious. Ambience was sort of a nice clean diner. One section has TVs to watch the Vikings during brunch. Service was good.

    They've revamped their menu and are trying to move from a neighborhood burger place to be more of a "bistro". I'm not a fan of the move, personally. They shrunk a bunch of portion sizes and kept the prices the same by calling them "tapas style." Never mind that tapas are supposed to be dirt cheap/free to keep you around and drinking. On that note, they all but abandoned the beer program and don't really get anything interesting anymore. We used to go 2x a week for happy hour but between removing all the best dishes and the gutted beer menu it's not really worth the $1 off most t things that start over priced. The only exception being the HH sliders. They're really juicy and a good deal for $9. I miss the old HH buffalo cauliflower and lettuce wraps. Those were fantastic. Service and atmosphere haven't really changed so they're both great. Which makes it even more of a bummer.

    Stopped here for a late dinner with a friend. The bar area was a bit busy so we opted to sit in the dining room. They also have a cute patio. I ordered the Pornstar martini and my friend got a cherry cola. My drink was good, very fruity tasting, came with a chaser. My friend didn't care for her pop at first because they use a sweeter syrup for the cherry flavor but she said once the ice melted and watered it down it was better. For food we got cheese curds, I got the So Cal (impossible burger) and my friend got the steak frites which came w/ fries. The food was overall good. The fries were a bit overcooked, crispy. The burgers do not come with any sides so it ends up being a bit pricey. Overall the quality is good though. The staff were super friendly and nice. Our waiter was very attentive and even noticed I didn't really touch my drink until after the food came (I hadn't ate much all day and need to eat before drinking) she asked if I liked my drink because if I didn't I could switch it out for something else, which was sweet. I did like it but just needed some food first. Parking in the lot is very tight. But there's street parking and a sign that says you can park in Wuollets parking lot after 6pm.

    I love red cow it's been one of my favorite spots since they opened. The onion rings are what really stood out to me this time. Huge, perfectly golden brown crispy beer-battered rings!! They were so good. We had a side of fries to share too for the table. The 60/40 was good too it's a bacon burger essentially what's not to love?! I cut mine in half to eat the rest the next day. Service was great they were really attentive and somehow managed to keep up with my intense water consumption that day . So if you're by 50th and France check out red cow!

    60/40 Burger
    Jon L.

    I was udder-ly in the mood for a burger so my friend took me to Red Cow, a Minnesota staple. I really enjoyed the 60/40 burger. The bacon mixed into the patty along with the candied bacon on top made for a really pronounced pork flavor, which I enjoyed. There was a little too much beer mustard but otherwise a well-executed burger. It's disappointing that they no longer offer fries with the dish, in attempts to upsell you on a premium side, but otherwise it's a solid burger with great service.

    Quick review... have been to Red Cow many times (mostly their St Paul location, which was a go to for watching sports, brunch, etc when I had fam that lived near the Cathedral) Went yesterday to the 50th & France location for a quick post golf lunch & bev at the bar... bartender was super friendly, happy to change TV channels, chat about the game(s) & give good beer recs. The ambiance fits this grown up preppy area of SW Minne. Chicken club was excellent, and tater tots had a bit of peppery pop. Buddy loved the double barrel burger, which came highly recommended Will be back soon, def stop in when in the area and in need of a good burger/draft beer selection!

    A great place in downtown Edina to grab a burger and beer! They do offer a lot more ... a full bar and a variety of dishes to whet your appetite beyond burgers! Great cocktails, especially the Bloody Mary! And fast and friendly service! A great casual dining experience with your friends or family!

    Steak Frites.

    Wonderful place. Peaceful ambiance! Service was great, Wish there was more food options.

    We decided to try the Edina location as we had a gift card from management after a not so good visit to the north loop location. Started with the chips & onion dip and the cheese curds. Both were very good. For entrees we got the steak frites and chicken tenders entree. Steak was fantastic. Super tender, cooked perfect medium and delicious sauce. One of the best steaks we've had. Chicken fingers also very good. Perfectly crispy, huge portion and the dipping sauces are all very good. Both come with fries too which is nice as the burgers/sandwiches don't come with a side. Beth, our server, was super nice and attentive. Parking is a little tight in the lot but you can park on the street to. Edina is the best of all the locations.

    Cheese curds
    Rachelle S.

    Went for happy hour and had really great service on their new patio! Food was really good but thinking they changed their cheese curds. They weren't as good as I remembered. Had the ahi tuna crisps, cheese curds, apple and Brie toast along with the 60/40 sliders but subbed garlic may for the sauce! The burgers were amazing!

    Bloody Mary
    Becca E.

    We came here on a Sunday and surprisingly wasn't packed, it was around 1-1:30. We watched some football and ordered food in the bar area. It was quiet and decorated nicely for Christmas! Our server was great and took good care of us. The food was amazing and very reasonably priced for what you get! Double barrel burger 10/10 Amazing Bloody Mary with a full size beef stick Onion rings- newer menu item I believe- 10/10 Hot chicken plate- spicy and great flavor with good sauces!

    Hi Dan, If you're craving that Sticky Toffee Cake, you can find it at our sister restaurant Red Rabbit(Mpls & Stp). Otherwise shoot me a message at grant@redcowmn.com before… 

    Where is the bison meat sourced? A friend thought it was the best tasting burger ever! I'd like to make some on the grill at home & simply want to know more!!! Is the bison farmed like cattle or roaming on prairie?

    We no longer offer a Bison burger on our menu, when we did carry it we sourced it from North American Bison LLC, a farmers collective.

We also enjoyed oysters, caviar, rock shrimp tempura, tallow fries and the dexter burger. All was fantastic, and I would love to come back and truly try everything else on the menu! One note of caution, while we were there a gust of wind blew an umbrella out of its stand and almost landed/punctured a guest at a nearby table. It was quite the commotion and very scary. I'm guessing that doesn't happen often but a good reminder to be aware of your surroundings all the time!

This place does get busy so definitely keep that in mind. Luckily I made reservations ahead of time so we had a table waiting for us, otherwise we would have been put on a waiting list since it's a small space. They put us in a corner booth which was nice and spacious enough for 4 people so I'd definitely recommend asking for a booth verse a table if you're planning to come with a larger group. The servers are all very friendly and helpful. I appreciated their attentiveness and sharing what they like best, especially for what's in season based on the time of year. The menu has quite a bit of variety too which is sometimes unexpected when you come to a pub-style location. For appetizers we got Onion Ring and Fried Pickles. They were both really good and served with dipping sauces. Definitely both shareable items so if you're in a group they'd be great options! My entree I chose the Wild Alaskan Sockeye Salmon served with lemon soy marinade, creamy cucumbers, and jasmine rice -- it was SO good!! I loved the creaminess of the cucumbers especially with the rice and than the lemon soy marinade was just a unique touch to the salmon. Toned the flavors down without overpowering acidity. And the salmon was so dreamy, a beautiful pink color that you just knew it wasn't a farm raised salmon. Plus the portion was very generous!! I'd definitely recommend the Alaskan Sockeye Salmon to anyone interested in visiting here. #eatwildsavewild The only negatives (which are more so just knowledge bombs for you): * Restaurant is VERY loud. It's hard to hear because it is one small room that everyone plus the bar is in. I wished I would have took a picture to show what I mean. Just know that if it's an intimate setting you're looking for this is not the place. So be prepared to talk loudly over the loudness and ask "excuse me?" or "repeat that" many times throughout your visit because you're not going to hear everything. * Timed eating. Because this place is a hit with limited seating, once you get a table and complete your meal/payment you'll kindly be asked to leave so that they can clean up and open the table to next in line. Totally get that and am not put off by this at all, but I could see how it could catch some folks off guard especially if you are out for a meal with folks you may not see frequently-- so just keep that in mind. This is not the place to sit and talk post meal. * Parking is limited. Be prepared to walk a few blocks as the road parking in front of the business is pretty limited especially with the other stores and restaurants in the area. Regardless of those few bullets I highly recommend folks visit George & The Dragon. It's a really cool spot and the food was great! Plus theirs a malt shop right next door that looks yummy too, so definitely worth visiting and getting malts after for dessert.

I started with their signature cocktail, the Naked Dani. It comes topped with a salty foam and a little rubber duck, which makes it a fun and memorable drink. For food, we ordered a variety of dishes to share. We started with the Crispy Masa Chips, and honestly, I would probably skip those next time. The portion was pretty small, they were a little awkward to eat, and they just didn't stand out flavor-wise. The Cucumber Watermelon Salad, on the other hand, was amazing. It was light and refreshing, making it the perfect addition to the meal. The roasted sweet potatoes were another favorite--they had so much flavor and were cooked perfectly. We also ordered the Corn Elote Chipotle, which was absolutely delicious. I could have easily eaten the whole bowl myself. For tacos, we tried the Pork Carnitas, and they were fantastic. If you're dining with a larger group, you can even order a larger portion so everyone gets one. Our favorite dish of the night, though, was the Zubuton Asada. It only comes with one skewer and is definitely one of the pricier menu items, but it was worth it. The steak was cooked perfectly, incredibly flavorful, and easily the standout of the meal. We also tried the Chicken Thigh Pincho. It had a nice flavor but was spicier than I expected, so it's probably the one dish I would pass on during my next visit. Overall, we had such a fun dining experience. It's definitely more of a special occasion spot than somewhere I'd visit regularly because of the price, but everything from the atmosphere to most of the food made it feel well worth the splurge.

I'm fancy, so I wanted something a bit more upscale. I did a little bit of research and wouldn't you know it... Colita came up. So here's how it went! Atmosphere/Appearance: Set south of downtown and a bit west of The Mall of America on Penn Avenue is this gem. There is no private parking lot, but plenty of street parking to leave your fly ride. But once you walk up to the restaurant you can immediately understand the message they're trying to send. Everything looks so modern, straightforward with straight lines, grey colors and light woods. There is a small outdoor section where you can dine if you get lucky enough to land a spot there. Inside carries a very similar style with a little nod to the pueblos and architecture of the southwest. The decor is minimalistic and the "loudest" thing in the room is the live plant wall seated directly behind the bar, which was super cool. Service: I can't remember who took care of us, but we had no issues whatsoever. Food/Drink: I was able to try so many different dishes and drinks here and the list is below... : Xochitl In Love : La Clandestina : Tuna Tostada : Chicken Tinga Tostada : Seared Scallops : Tlayuda : Colita Old Fashioned : Lamb Barbacoa Tacos : Duck Tamal However, my favorite things were the Lamb Barbacoa Tacos, Duck Tamal and Seared Scallops, in that order. The food here is phenomenal, the drinks are excellently crafted and things are served tapas style so you don't get too full off of just one thing! Order a whole bunch of stuff and share with the table! Value: As I mentioned earlier, I wanted upscale and the priced dddooo reflect that. Lol. This is a nice place so be prepared to spend... Like you're downtown somewhere. In conclusion, I loved this place and I will come back over and over. Check this place out the next time you're in the area!
