    Tried out T.J. Hooligans for their happy hour after work and was presently surprised! The space has a fun vibe to it - open, high ceilings, and unique decor. I was expecting it to be more of a drab, dark bar vibe and it was not that! They also have a nice outdoor patio to enjoy in warm weather. The staff was incredibly kind, attentive, and helpful! We split the fried pickles and nachos amongst three of us for our appetizers and not only were the portions great but the food was also super tasty! The fried pickles came in spears (which personally is my favorite for the ultimate pickle to breading ratio) with ranch as the dipping sauce and they were delicious!We also had the nachos with chicken on the side and these were a hit as well. I tried the drink of the week which was an apple cider spiced Moscow mule and it was super tasty! A great casual spot to meet up for some good food and drinks with friends!

    Found out about this place at taste of Eden Prairie. Loves the samples that they were giving away so me and some of my colleagues stopped by for happy hour and some grub. What a gem! We all enjoyed our food and lucky me - they have cajun pasta! As the resident expert on the topic - I'd vote yes for some great flavor and a decent hint of spice (not overwhelming). Love the breadstick on the side. If you read my reviews, I always like when the cajun pasta option has peppers and onions. Hooligan's 's both boxes. Trendy interior decor and a nice little patio for when the weather cooperates. I LOVE the location as there aren't a ton of options in the area/on my drive home for decent food/beer and this place does both well. We'll be back!

    Philly cheese steak sandwich and Caesar side salad

    They like to close early so we haven't been able to make it here until now but the service was really good and the patio is nice. Philly cheese steak sandwich and Caesar side salad. The salad was huge! Smash burger was good too and fries are amazingggg Also had a Bloody Mary but it tasted like watered down vodka with tomato, but had a nice garnish with a pretzel. Margarita was really good! Happy hour till 5:30 and events every couple days like music bingo.

    Unfortunately, this place falls flat. It's usually empty and the energy is just... boring. We are regulars at a few nearby places and were hoping this would be a nice addition to our rotation. Sadly, it seems as though no one knows about this place because they do zero advertising -- even the countless apartments and businesses nearby have no concept this place exists. It seems they thought because their Prior Lake location is popular, that they would command such demand in Eden Prairie with zero advertising or brand presence. Recently stopped in and the bartender mentioned they were not a bartender. A couple regulars at the bar but 95% empty on a Saturday night. There really isn't an identity to this place. It's not that it is "bad" I just wouldn't go out of my way to stop here.

    This place opened a few months ago in what had been a longstanding, well known and goto place for a quality meal experience. It had been a higher-end restaurant. TJ Hooligan's opened its second location in this space as an American bar /restaurant experience. They simply threw up some beer/alcohol banners and posters on the walls and reopened the doors. Ambiance is so-so as it has high end fans and lights over an austere set of high/low top tables. The food is decent bar food and they have maintained the wood-fired pizza grill. Unfortunately the management felt like "open the doors and they will come". Generally that has not worked. I've visited twice, and the first time I never went in as it was empty and I figured it hadn't opened yet. They are located in the midst of office spaces and many apartment buildings within 1/2 mile and they simply won't advertise-it is the oddest thing. A few fliers delivered to the buildings and apartments in the area, along with a plan & concept of "who they are" would be huge for this place to help them get established. Friendly staff and bartenders, but the "why we are here" message hasn't yet resonated with me, or sadly the community.

    Smothered chicken sandwich

    First time trying this since I had a coupon, the service was good but the food is a little pricey as I was expecting the portions to be bigger. I got a chicken sandwich and my friend got pasta, both were lacking a bit of flavor but they were alright. I liked the fried though they were crispy and soft on the inside.

    We came in to check out the new restaurant and was not disappointed. The decor is simple and uncluttered. There are many TVs with sports on. Our food came out on good time and was delicious! The fries came in a cute basket, a great presentation. The only thing we weren't crazy about was that our beers were served in a Mason jar. Our server Leah was accommodating and got my husband an empty water glass to pour his beer into. We will be sure to go back.

Started with the skillet, Lodge cornbread. It was amazing and delicious. Although hard to recommend it because it is so filling you're not gonna be able to finish your entrée I bet. Maybe the best skillet cornbread I've had! For our entrées, we tried the margarita flatbread, the chicken pesto Bellagio, and the Cajun ribeye with a loaded baked potato. The flatbread was a bit disappointing, but the other two were pretty good. The steak was cooked medium rare, as ordered, and had a very good flavor. The chicken was tender and juicy and had a nice sauce.

We were seated and had a view of the pond or water. Our server, Bryn, brought us a few glasses of bubbles to start while we looked at the menu. Bryn gave us some good recommendations, and we went with the Redstone breakfast. Redstone is known for their ribs, so what else could I choose? I selected a full rack of ribs, and the meat fell right off the bone. They had the perfect blend of BBQ, smoke, and tanginess. The sauce was not runny and stuck to the ribs. I didn't even bother with the fries. The coleslaw was mediocre and was lacking in flavor, but the ribs were heavy. We had a few glasses of wine to quench our thirst and relaxed and had great conversations as we caught up. Bryn checked up on us and made sure we had all we needed and provided perfect service. The bathrooms and restaurant areas were clean, and there was tons of free parking in their lot.

The food leans more beer-forward pub cuisine than whiskey-focused dining, which is worth knowing going in. I had the short-rib ravioli: if you like meat and cheese, you'll probably be happy. The mushroom flavor was the standout for me. It also arrived with a breadstick that had a distinctly Fazoli's-esque vibe. I did not dare eat it. Overall, I'd dine here again. It checks the boxes for a decent, reliable meal with friends, especially if you can take advantage of the patio.

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.
