Food Scene
This excellent restaurant opened in a small store front in Nicollet Ave and then quickly outgrew the space and moved around the corner. Acclaimed pizzas, excellent empanadas and yummy ensaladas (salads) are all that's on the menu. This small menu is worth the trip!

Korean Fried Chicken and Asian Street Food await you in this small store front, yet highly acclaimed restaurant.
