Julian Kittelson-Aldred: Try the Ruby Rae - the toppings are in reverse order (cheese on the bottom, sauce on top). Delightfully backward & spicy, too!
Chelsie Glaubitz: Things I LOVE: artichoke dip, garlic mashed potato pizza, veggie nuggets, veggie sausage, bloody mary mix, their blue cheese dressing on their mixed salad. YUM! Can't get it all in one sitting though.
Javen Swanson: Try the build-your-own pasta lunch special with penne pasta, pesto alfredo sauce, artichoke hearts, spinach, Kalamata olives, and feta cheese.
Rosaura Ochoa: Try the tortellini-prosciutto and gorgonzola salad, it's amazing! My favorite dish here
Nicholas Kolnik: This is my favorite pizza by the slice (sausage, pepperoni or cheese, it doesn't really matter) in the Twin Cities area, though Ann Kim's new Hello Pizza may challenge it in January of 2013.
Jered Weber: Go straight for the pizza. The mozzarella is to die for.

Deb Franko: Buf mozzarella upgrade (d.o.c. or doppio) is totally worth it! Love the sprinkle of sea salt, too. Yum!
Erin B.: The Quattro Formaggi is my all-time favorite. The garlic and Parmesan seasoned crust, the perfect amount of red sauce, and the yummiest cheeses (goat cheese 3 thumbs way up!) topped with olive oil.
Madeline Stevens: Try the buffalo mozzarella!!
Troy Gillenwater: Get the cheese curds
Jessica N: The mouth trap cheese curds! super fast service too
Javen Swanson: Besides the cheese curds, check out the Lamb Shoppe, Sausage Sister & Me, Walleye on a Stick, and Wild Rice Specialties.
