The Buttered Tin - St. Paul (Lowertown)

We’ve been here multiple times but for some reason I’ve never done a review. Hit them up after our walk at the farmers market today. Had their fruit pie of the day - blueberry. OMG this was so good. Pie crust was so thin and flaky, the pie itself still was a little warm. Not overly sweet, was so good. For food I had the biscuits and gravy with the poached eggs. This was good, but the gravy was unfortunately not my favorite.  There is onion and celery in the gravy which gives it a little odd flavor to me. Hubs had the burrito - said it was really good - only issue was that all the meat and beans were on one side and the eggs and rice were on the other. Brought home a couple of their day old cookies - these were so good!!!

Super impressed with the Buttered Tin after my first time here—it lived up to the hype! The delicious breakfast set us up for a wonderful day. I highly recommend the cinnamon roll; they’ve got the ooey gooey, fluffy, and chewy texture down to a science, and it still feels homemade. The Damn Good Breakfast Sandwich was also delicious—simple, but very well-executed. The breakfast burrito was huge, so be prepared if you order that. Service was friendly and quick! Overall, the atmosphere was cozy and memorable. The option to sit outside in the shade in Lowertown was very enjoyable on a Sunday morning in June. Based on aroma and what they had on display, it seems baked goods are their strong suit. Can’t wait to be back to try more of the menu, especially the lunch items like the pot roast sandwich. It actually wasn’t too busy when we went around 1pm: about a 5 minute wait in line to order. Please do yourself a favor and give The Buttered Tin a try if you’re considering!

The Buttered Tin is a blend of restaurant and bakery. The food is well-prepared, unique, and delicious! But the ordering process is uncomfortable on the busy weekends because you have to stand in line (upwards of 20 minutes) to place an order.

Average in every rubric

I’m rating The Buttered Tin as average, which in no way is intended as negative, is just that to me, feels like one more breakfast spot as surely are many. Maybe there are baked or specialty items in the menu that qualify as hidden gems, but for a one-time visitor, neither the coffee, the pancakes, nor the salmon wrap, reached the memorable sweet spot however tasty they were.

Would I recommend this place??? Well, if you happen to be around, yes!!! Nevertheless, if you’re planning on deviating from your route or schedule for coming to this place, maybe it’s not worth the bother.

Anyhow, probably what really ground my gears was the sign letting customers know The Buttered Tin would no longer accept tips in lieu of a 20% surcharge. From a wheelchair user standpoint, I’m no fan of those places where you are forced to tip (because that’s what the surcharge is) for queuing and ordering first, and then having to find a table while carrying your coffee with nobody even caring to assist.

Definitely an awesome breakfast spot!! Lots of great options! And the staff were all SO kind! The food was a little pricey, but it was worth it. Excellent breakfast burrito and parfait. The pecan coffee cake was TO DIE FOR. The bathrooms were clean. The restaurant was quiet and calm. Definitely will be back!

Lazy Pair

A true gem. Wide ranging menu from quick bites to great meals.

Very good food and service was excellent.

This is one of two places to eat in Lamoure, ND. It is also a bar and probably the best of the two places to eat out in Lamoure.

Good place to hangout with your friends. Definitely recommend.

New and improved atmosphere friendly staff can sometimes seem busy as they are both restaurant and bar and one of only 2 in restaurants in town great food I can personally promise as I'm the head cook an have been there since a week after opening

Hooters

The Hooters in South County is hands down the BEST Hooters in all of the Saint Louis area. Their wings are a great size. They aren't too small they always come out hot and extra wet just the way I like them. Their curly fries are crispy and have just the right amount of salt on them even though I always ask for extra on the side. The waitress are excellent and friendly. The management team will come through and ask how the food is. I've been to the other Hooters and the customer service is great their as well but the main thing that sticks out about the South County location is their food is always perfect to me.

I've been to other locations and their food is just never on the same level. Their wings are too small and sometimes come out lukewarm. Even when asking for them to be extra wet they still look dry. The French fries taste like they have been under the warm for the longest time. I can definitely attest to this with the downtown location that just visited less than 3 weeks ago. I also will get this at times from the Maryland Heights location. The Saint Peters location does a pretty good job so I would rank them 2nd out of locations.

But overall if you want some damn good wings, go to the South County location. It is definitely worth it. My favorite combo of sauces are the Mild sauce and Sweet Teriyaki sauce. Trust me it is amazing. Well done South County location.

Hooters has really Fallen off apparently.   Wings are so small .  Baby chicken wings .
If you visit this location and get Nicole for a waitress do yourself a favor and just leave.  Going somewhere else will be way less frustrating than having her wait on you .

Weird how everytime I come in here it smells sour like the chicken has been sitting out. Not to mention the order is almost never ready for pickup. Not even busy just slow. They used to have good food. I guess looks are more important than service now… not to mention it’s so cold almost all the girls had their hoodies on and the ones that didn’t were shivering….  sad I used to really like coming here. Added a photo of me waiting on an almost empty dining area for my order for almost 15 minutes. It was preordered.

Got myself triple order of roasted wings. 2 Jamaican jerk, one lemon pepper. Extra crispy. They came out amazing. If you need to tell them it's + 4 minutes. Best wings you will get there.

Rachel did a great job serving us. They do offer a military discount.

The Honey Baked Ham Company

I got a sandwich while I was there to pick up the holiday ham... Both were crazy spending. The sandwich was dry and mostly tasteless. The service was pretty okay though.

One of the guys dropped off their delivery vans for service at my work. and I made a comment saying how much I love their food. After we finished the work, the driver brings me a sandwich! Made my week lol

Picked up a Christmas ham and had their honey baked sandwich, it was amazing! Can’t wait to eat the ham!!

Ruined Christmas Dinner.  We bought two packs of ham slices to have with our guests.  When we opened them there was nothing but ham shreds, nothing that could be called a slice.  On top of that, more than half of it was mostly fat.  Been buying HBH for many years...never again.  Thankfully we had some leftovers from Christmas Eve.

Sliders were delicious! However, $27 for a quick lunch (sandwich & chips) for two was way overpriced. :-/

Papa Murphy's | Take 'N' Bake Pizza

They were super busy, and their card machines were down/slow, the staff tried to keep up, but their preorder arrangement was a mess. Waited 25 minutes to get my pickup order. It was quicker to not preorder. It owners need to review their process

We USED TO go to Pappa  Murphy's every Tuesday.   Loved their pizza!
We don't go anymore.  They closed the 2 stores that were close to us East Lake Street and East 66th Street in Richfield.

This may not be an appropriate place to voice my complaint but I could not find a corporate site to communicate with.  Please pass this along to upper management.

We followed the instructions to the letter on how to make the pizzas in our oven. Both pizzas burned on the bottom, the cardboard tray on both pieces were completely burnt. One pizza was totally in edible. we had not even gotten to the complete cooking time and smoke was billowing out of the oven. Very dissatisfied.

Great experience with this Papa Murphys, the nice lady who grabbed my take out order went over each individual customized ingredient on my receipt and physically looked at the pizza and made sure it was made correct! Best experience with a papa murphys so far!

We always get pizza from here its easy location, food is good, staff is friendly and helpful. Its a take so can't really judge atmosphere other then always appears clean.

Tii Cup

Great boba! Try one of the waffles at least once & then if you really don't like it you don't have to get it again (but I do!) Make sure to get a punch card because you get a free drink after 8 or 10 purchases(I forget). This place is a must if you like fun drinks! Definitely recommend.

Cute little local place! Food and drinks were really good and dessert was pretty worth the price. My main issue was atmosphere. It was pretty hot today and there wasn’t much cooling to save my order from melting quickly. Overall, I’d come back!

They have a new ordering kiosk on top of also having someone at the window. Very quick service and everything was in stock. A little dusty around the counter but otherwise clean and open. Minimal seating.

I’ve been to dozens of bubble tea places in MN and this is my favorite. They have an excellent menu full of options. They’ve always made the tea accurately and quickly even when they’re super busy. If you don’t want tea (or the caffeine) I HIGHLY recommend the snow, especially the honeydew snow with boba.

With a wide selection of different drinks, additions, and desserts, this place offers something for everyone.

The staff are great. They were very kind, offering suggestions and providing excellent service from order to pickup.

It may be unassuming, but Tii Cup is worth a visit for a nice tea or sweet! 💙

Jack in the Box

Our first time trying Jack in the box, Thanksgiving day left us little options during a road trip. Fast food wins again. But was surprised how fresh and hot the food was. 2 thumbs up for sure

If I could give zero stars I would. I have gone here twice now both times my order got messed up even with one being a correction order! I ordered 4 breakfast platters with Bacon. To start the amount of eggs they put it there literally took my 5 year old 3 bites to finish, the hash browns were soggy and gross. Then to top it off they literally forgot a whole breakfast platter, I was so disappointed with the first experience on-top of the remake order being so disappointing as the first I didn’t even bother to go back for the fourth platter. Ontop of that everything was cold and I’m absolutely dumbfounded on how hard it was to count to 4 and I DO NOT RECOMMEND A BURGER FROM THIS JACK! I can not stress enough that the burger was dry and there was more condiments as if they tried to cover the fact that the burger was dry and this was the remake order from the first time they messed up and burnt what little eggs they gave us. Will never visit this Jack again for sure!

We online ordered tonight on 09/03/23 at 2am… it was a HUGE order but that’s not the point, I wanted to make this review to acknowledge the kindness and amazing crew working. They made sure we had everything and joked with us.

I appreciate it a lot coming from the fast food and restaurant industry myself.

My meal was delicious but I ordered two tacos as well and they were old and greasy. But I love Jack in the box.

Got to the drive thru at 11:30 pm with only 3 cars infront of me, from the pick up window to me, for 6 tacos, mini tacos, and potato wedges. Pulled out of the drive thru at 12:12.  42 minutes for a drive thru. Absolutely unacceptable. 2 people working inside. If they can’t keep up with 3 orders they need better training, or you need get more help in there. Otherwise just close the store because why waste everyone’s time.

Anthonino's Taverna

It was my first time at Anthonino’s and I was in the mood for pasta.  The place is classy, the food was great and the staff was phenomenal.  I ordered 3 different pastas and each dish was consistently cooked to my request.  All tasted amazing.  I started with a pizza , sweet and spicy, as an appetizer.  It was a great choice.  It is a mix between thin and original crust which was crispy and a little chewy but not dry.  Just the way a pizza should be.  My favorite pasta dish was the Puttanesca with fresh tomatoes, capers, anchovies, etc.  I do not settle for restaurants that don’t make their food from scratch with love.  You will taste the difference at this restaurant compared to others.  Thank you Chefs and staff for a memorable day.

Very satisfying for sure. Toasted ravs were really good, as was the gyro. Guys at the bar were great.

Happy to have gone there, not sure if I'd make it a regular stop but would certainly recommend checking it out.

Food there is always good. Especially, Toasted ravioli was really good. And I ordered gluten free pasta to just try. I used to get regular pasta,but I really enjoyed the taste of gluten free pasta too.
Only few dissapointment was our server spilled water on table when he gives us more water. And He didn't say anything about it. But Overall,I love this place!

Absolutely everything is on point, from the welcoming atmosphere when you walk in, to the personal and attentive (without being intrusive or bothersome) service...and what can be said about the food other than OMG yes!
The toasted ravioli are amazing, the crispy artichoke hearts are to die for, and the lasagna is probably the best I've ever had!

Friendly Mediterranean style restaurant on the Hill fits in well with the rest of the area that adds to the experience of first timers. Plenty of sidewalk seating along with a decent dinning room. Pizzas looked awesome as we walked by to our table.
Toasted Ravioli appetizer 6 pieces loaded with meat spinach and cheese placed around a dish of marinara was tasty
I thought the house (Greek) salad was a bit dry. Actually couldn't tell if there was any dressing on it.
Wife got lasagna and she thought it lacked enough red sauce. More like pasta with plenty cheese but kinda dry.
Chicken Palermo was excellent but I got white pasta as a side.  Disappointed as the pasta was tough to chew.
Next time we'll try the pizza as that looked awesome.

I found Waldo!
He works at this Papa Murphy's!

I decided to get the classic Jack O Lantern pizza because it's their specialty, and Papa Murphy's has a very special place in my heart.
For the last 15 years, almost every single Friday, our family of 4 has gotten Papa Murphy's pizza. It's become a tradition in our home, and we get so excited abt pizza day and so happy to see dad come home from work with 2 or 3 pizzas and garlic bread. It's very nostalgic.

So thank you, Sir Murphy, for becoming a staple in the Ballwanz household.

Much love all around.

Get the herb and cheese blend as it totally changes the flavor of the pizza and brings it from just OK to very good

Been going to the Fridley location for almost 20 years. Never any complaints that rise above a petty issue, never repeated. I've never had a pizza not made to my order. Great workers over the years, consistently high quality, fresh ingredients, generous load on the ingredients & enough different ingredients & options to allow most anyone to get what they want.  Crusts are good--haven't  tried the cauliflower one. Easy to cook. Please tip the staff, no real excuse given the high value for the money! A dollar or two will help a lot. I only took one star away as I prefer a sauce with more Italian style spices. And over the years, the owners/company have had no tip policies, sometimes not even allowing a tip jar when tips were permitted. When they weren't, I just left it on the counter. I worked in lots of restaurants while going to school. While this is somewhat different, it's still a hard job standing all day & prepping the ingredients.

Very good location for take & bake pizza.
Staff is great at this store!  Friendly and entertaining.

Good take and bake pizza at a good price.
Nice staff.

Medina Grill

We walked in the door and the man behind the counter offered to explain or walk through any menu item. The service was excellent and the food is fresh and quality. We had rice bowls. I am picky and order things a certain way and they didn't miss a beat. The star is the falafel bites. They are moist and rich.

it is a great healthy fast food option, and the spice on the chicken is so good.

Must try

This experience was disappointing for a Mediterranean fast-food restaurant. The basmati rice in the Medina Bowl and the chicken in the Original Palestine were both dry. Additional tzatziki sauce with the meal could have alleviated this issue. I also found it off-putting that they asked how spicy I wanted everything and then applied a hidden upcharge for mild. The cost felt high, especially since I still felt slightly hungry after finishing my meal. To conclude on a positive note, the chef was friendly and asked about our dining experience.

Medina grill is fantastic. Everything was fantastic from service to the food. Medina Bowl and You do 2. Original Palatine and a salad.

First time here with the family. We all loved our food. Fresh and delicious. The restaurant was very clean. Great service as well. Definitely coming back ! Thank you ♡

Excellent mixed beef and chicken shawarma wrap! My wife had the shawarma rice bowl and loved it.
