Jan Shaw-Flamm: The kale with pancetta and feta (?) was amazing and the guacamole was delish. Definitely want to go back.
Nina Brown: You must try the eggplant fries!!! I don't even like eggplants but this changed my mind!
Eater: Featuring the same beloved caramelos (basically tacos) and bocadillos (sandwiches), but with a pumped up small plate, entree, and cocktail selection. The early word is strong on this one.
Heavy Table: Broders' Apricot Bars have a tender, buttery cookie base; an apricot layer of jammy, sweet-and-tart intensity, with some satisfying chew; and a topping of dabs of buttery dough. Try them! Read more.
Bob Burns: get the South Jersey Hoagie - very authentic. Good cannolis too!
Danny Olson: Ordering to go? Grab a short draft to make the wait a little sweeter

Gina Giampaolo: Tagliarini Di Locanda Del Lupo: fresh pasta with prosciutto, truffle pesto & cream. Likely my favorite thing to eat in all of Minneapolis.
John Moore: they have a seasonal/local menu, which i go for. wild boar is good when it's in. the lasagnas aren't as good as the other dishes
Dave Healy: Go to Broders and enjoy the beautiful patio while waiting for a table

Emmy Anderson: Cozy, romantic spot. Start with the melange and then try the shortribs. Yum!
Derek: Get the Kobe corned beef and hash with two poached eggs. So rich, so good, savor every bite. The biscuits with redeye gravy is also mouthwatering. Reservations highly recommended for Sunday brunch.

Peter Eklund: Never had the food, but their $6 mini cocktails are fantastic! Try the one with absinthe, it's amazing. Great venue for slam poetry
Heavy Table: The trio of cured salmon is fresh, silky, and served with a kick-ass dill, rye, and anchovy marinade. Be sure to order the bourbon caramel sundae to top things off. Read more.
Andrea Kopfmann: Have a blushing belle for a late night sweet treat. Leave your lips luscious for those good night kisses.

Brian David: No TV's at the bar (yay!). Nice, warm, intimate lighting. Lively, yet cozy. Loft feel. Rustic meets metro. Look at the chalkboard as the bar has no branded tap handles... definitely a nice touch.
City Pages: Try the chicken roulade, filled with smoky chicken liver and rolled in crispy breadcrumbs. It's served with braised mustard greens, a gently cooked egg, mashed potatoes & watermelon radishes.
City Pages: The dining room walks the line between elegance and easy-going neighborhood hang-out. The food is refined without being overly fussy. Downstairs Parlour serves cutting-edge cocktails.
