"Warm up with authentic Italian food and a fireplace at this neighborhood restaurant in Highland Park. Share the creme brulee for a sweet dessert, keep an eye out for wine tasting events as future date options!. The Valentine's Day option with special wine flights should woo your loved one."
"Handmade and hand-rolled pasta might be what Highland Park’s Luci Ancora does best. The four-course Taster’s Dinner is offered every night, and you’ll get to try the best dishes on the menu that night, including the daily pasta. What other Twin Cities stops do you make for pasta?"
"Highland’s Luci Ancora, located at 2060 Randolph Ave., is another top choice, with Yelpers giving the Italian spot, which serves both vegetarian and vegan options, four stars out of 71 reviews. MORE NEWS: Car Stolen With Dog Inside In St. Paul's Payne-Phalen Neighborhood"
"This casual, order-at-the-counter plant-based vegan eatery is all about comfort food, and the brunch here — even sans meat — carries out that theme, too. Fluffy pancakes served with a better-than-average maple syrup was our favorite. If you can get over the texture difference, tofu scrambles that emulate scrambled eggs and Herbivorous Butcher “meats” make for flavorful and herbaceous brunch dishes."
"We finally have a place that proves, confidently and consistently, that eating vegan (pardon us, plant-based) doesn’t mean eating without flavor or fun. It’s all the food you love to eat (especially during winter), that just happens to be made sans-animal protein. (651) 222-3263169 N Victoria St, St Paul, MN 55104"
"We took several dishes to go and loved almost every single one of them!. Dishes are seasoned very well and the spice level was superb. There were many gluten..."
"These folks have been rocking fast-casual and flavorful since they moved from the Burnsville Center to Nicollet Ave not too long ago. The jerk pork is tender and juicy, and the spicy beef patty (the Jamaican version of an empanada or pierogi) is a thing of beauty. Don’t fear some of the hotter homemade sauces because, while they do deliver on the heat, they don’t sacrifice on flavor."
"During the unrest in the wake of George Floyd’s killing, this restaurant became a touchstone for the city. It turned from serving food, to acting as a collection point for neighbors in needs. While it has long since returned to serving its incredible jerk chicken and coconut rice, the eatery remains an example of its one love philosophy."
"Pimento brings the vibrant tastes of Kingston, Jamaica, to Eat Street Minneapolis. It’s not just me who thinks this place is great either. Pimento’s authentic Jamaican street food won on the Food Network’s reality show, Food Court Wars."
"Agelgil Ethiopian Restaurant, an African eatery in Highland, is another much-loved go-to for those looking for a vegetarian meal, with 4.5 stars out of 14 Yelp reviews. Head over to 2585 Seventh St. West to see for yourself."
"Located in uptown Minneapolis, this colorful establishment touts itself as "pizza with a conscience." They use hemp for eveything from their menus to their pesto, and 90 percent of the pizzas are available as vegetarian or vegan, which substitutes gourmet mozzarella alternative for cheese and mock duck for chicken. Interesting offerings include the Alamo, with BBQ sauce, cheddar, and red peppers; the CSA, which uses fresh seasonal crops from the Natural Harvest Community Supported Agriculture; and the truly unique Paul Bunyan with morel mushrooms and wild rice. Pasta, salads, desserts, and soft drinks are also available."
"This Lyn-Lake staple features 10 pizza options that can go vegan, along with vegan garlic-cheese bread and vegan "nuggets" with Buffalo sauce."
"I don’t often do a review, but our experience this evening at Ruth’s Chris was so fantastic I had to share. From the time we arrived the gentleman who sa..."

The museum is known for its significant collection of purely American artists, with over 4,500 pieces that span the entire landscape of this country's creative capacities. Masters such as Joan Mitchell, Louise Nevelson and Paul Manship grace the museum walls."
"Located in the Cass Gilbert-designed Pioneer Endicott building, the Minnesota Museum of American Art has a history that spans back to 1894. The M strives to bring in diverse exhibits that connect audiences with relevant subjects and issues. Currently undergoing major renovations, plan a visit to the M when it reopens December 2, 2018."
"The iconic Minnesota Museum of American Art has found it's home in the historic Pioneer Endicott building. While the indoor galleries are currently closed for a total rehaul, you can still take in The M’s exhibitions from their window galleries and skyways."
