   Simply an awesome experience! I am a foody and have dined at many wonderful restaurants around the world. The experience we had at the Stonegarden was right with the best we have ever had! A+ grade for staff, A+ for the ambience, A+ for the meal, and A+ for the value. Our brunch consisted of oysters and crab cake for starters, Stonegarden Benedict and Gravlax for mains, a side of fried potatoes, and their raspberry waffle for the sweets. Drinks were the Espresso Martini and Bloody Mary. The food was superb! Blue Point Oysters with champagne migonette pearls were INCREDIBLE! Awesome remoulade Maryland Crab Cake, lemon-mascarpone gravlax, fried mini-potatoes (which were so good that I doggy-bagged the last couple for home!), and a benedict with a scratch biscuit that had me considering another order of it! The raspberry compote on a very light and perfectly cooked waffle was a great way to finish our meal. I will add that the espresso martini is exemplar...fresh pulled espresso with vodka, frangelico, disaronno, licor 43, and a very slight hint of maple...AWESOME! The staff is top notch, super friendly, with prompt and patient service. The owner (Andrew) came to our table and talked with us for about 10 minutes on his history and the thoughts that went into this "french with some twists" influenced menu. Such care on the right staff, menu, feel and atmosphere of the restaurant is rarely done so well. The location is nestled into a wonderful neighborhood setting near Lake Nokomis. We are looking forward to coming back again and trying some of the other items on their menu!

   Hidden gem. Creative menu. The French Onion Omelette was a real treat. My picky sister LOVED it. I had the Maryland Crab Cake Benedict. PERFECTION. The Hollandaise sauce with a hint of dill was awesome. The crab cake was perfectly cooked. The space is open, bright and airy. The servers were attentive without being intrusive.

   We went because we were curious about a new restaurant. I didn’t know what to expect and was pleased. The coffee was great and so was my food. Our waiter was friendly, helpful, and attentive. I hadn’t had broth at a restaurant before and thought that was an odd part of the menu, but we ordered some and it was great.

   Such a great new neighborhood breakfast/brunch/lunch spot. The food was delicious and the service was great. Andrew (one of the owners) introduced himself and spent quite a bit of time talking to us. The menu is varied but not overwhelming. Can't wait to go back!

   We are so excited to have a new restaurant in our neighborhood and it is gorgeous. The atmosphere/ambiance is what my sister and I called "upscale Minneapolis chic". (an oxymoron I guess!) It is spacious with very tasteful and calming décor and has unique and exciting menu options from locally grown and in-house cured/prepared food. The staff are delightful and personable and make sure your time there feels special. Love it and will be back again and again! Welcome!!!
