One of the few remaining authentic diners, Mickey's Dining Car has been a part of downtown Saint Paul for over 70 years. And during those years, it has been open 24 hours per day, seven days per week. Like it did when it opened in 1937, it still serves such classic diner fare as hamburgers, fries, slices of pie, malteds, coffee, and large breakfasts.
Mickey's Dining Car has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Leave a Comment Theme: DinerComparison: about averageDirections: Mickey's Dining Car is located at 36 West Seventh Street, in downtown Saint Paul.

When on my frequent road trips I try as much as possible to eat "Road Food" from independently owned local restaurants where I can get a taste of the local flavor. That's why I stopped at Rock Creek Cafe while traveling across Minnesota in May of 2007.
It was a mixed experience. I found the place to be clean and the service was fine. Also, I had my very first cup of chicken dumpling soup - a regional specialty for which they are "famous." However, the Ruben Sandwich which I ordered with my soup was less than perfect. It was on the small side, and was almost burnt. However, I found the sandwich to be edible and the soup was good. Also, the price was very reasonable.

Chino Latino: A very hip returant that offers a food that is a mix between latin and chinese food.A lot of 'terndy and wanna be trendy' go there. Most tend to dress up for it.
Buca di Beppo: Although this Italian retursant is not exclusive to Minnesota it is still one of my fav Italian resturants there! They serve LARGE portions of food and you share. SO make sure you go in group of people.
Girarrosto Tuscano, an Italian steak returant.The resturanthas a 70s theme sorta scarry I know!
Everything dreadful about 70s design is cleverly repackaged in the comfortable dining room and bar.
Plosyster suit and hair gel is optional by the way! :)
Pickled Parrot:
Attention Jimmy Buffett fans: the Pickled Parrot is your Margaritaville. Whenever the songwriter/author/Tequila spokesperson comes to town, the Pickled Parrot shelters Parrotheads to the full capacity! Providing free-flowing margaritas and tender, Caribbean-spiced ribs. Inside this downtown restaurant the vibe is loose and light with a caribian theme to it! It also serves some of the best crab in Minnesota, imported directly from Miami.
Nico I am on a budget anything else other than McDonalds?!
Well .. try the Da Afghan Express in NE Minneapolis. They serve Kababs and Chicken gyros. You can get a good meal for less than $8 !!
Also check out Quang Restaurant in Minneapolis.There you can eat like big overweight hairy Emperor ( eat enough times there and you will look like one too) :)
It serves Vietnamese food.
Without a doubt the best vietnamese food in the cities.Great spring rolls and the soups are top notch. Leave a Comment Theme: Other

Oh...you can also pull up in your boat!
The best thing about Maynards is the views of Lake Minnetonka!
Minneapolis is also the 'disputed' Juicy Lucy capital of the world. If you've never had a Juicy Lucy you have been missin' out!
The two best places places to snag one is at:
Matt's Bar
3500 Cedar Ave., Mpls.; 612-722-7072
5-8 Club
5800 Cedar Ave., Mpls.; 612-823-5858
The key to a Juicy Lucy is cheese stuffed into a hamburger patty, grill it up and top it off with raw or cooked onions.
One word of warning.....let it cool down! You will burn the heck out of your mouth with all that hot melted cheese!
Fear the cheese! Leave a Comment Theme: OtherDirections: MAYNARD'S 685 Excelsior Blvd., Excelsior (952) 470-1800 Casual and Fine Dining, Nightclub. A terrific view of the lake with bayside dining. Phone ahead for reserv

Rainforest Cafe at Mall of America is fun to eat at.
Animatronic animals and rainforest decor in the dining area. Bird show and gift shop out front.
To be honest the food is good but not as good as the atmosphere. We went there for the fun of the place not the food. Leave a Comment Theme: OtherDirections: Inside Mall of America. There are many restaurants in the big mall if you don't want to try Rainforest Cafe.Other Contact: There is a Rainforest Cafe we ha
