Andy, sorry to hear about your bad experience at the Texas Roadhouse. Please note that the Twin Cities Restaurant Blog is not affiliated with Texas Roadhouse in any way. I am independent and do reviews of all the local restaurants I dine at.....

What I ordered was not the most healthy but they really do have a lot of other healthy items on the menu ;)

I was out of state for most of the summer and so these mini reviews are fill-ins for the time I was gone. Never fear, many more local reviews coming soon!

John, you are the winner of the Giveaway!!!! I cannot seem to find your e-mail, so Please e-mail me when you see this message!

Hi Ginerva, I would REALLY like to move my www.twincitiesrestaurantblog.com to the new Beta version. I signed up but the changes haven't been made. Can you move me into the new Beta format please??!!

Sorry I didn't post this until now :( I had intended to get the write up done for my Cinco de Mayo week, but had too many other things going on this month. I have a few in queue that also need to be written asap.

Glad you liked Quack's. Their Buffalo Chicken Sandwich is the BEST!!!!

私は非常に悪い経験をしたと聞き残念です。私たちも良いサービスとおいしい料理がラッキーでしたね！

Glad you enjoyed La Casita, John! I haven't been there since November and it is always a treat when I get to go :)

Thank you, Denise!! It is a lot of fun and obviously I love food ;) Its nice that I am now getting a few free meals here and there and also getting some $ advertising....not much, but a little :)

I meant the northeastern suburbs where Dana and I both live. I was unaware of a location in Crystal, but even so.... that is further away from me than the Eagan location and probably just as far as Burnsville :(

Thank you for your suggestion, Katey. You have a valid point about wanting the links to the sites instead of having every post to sort through. I can do what you have asked but it will take some time to reformat it and to add new page links for each category. The way I have it set up now is out of convenience for myself, as I just need to add tags to each post and it categorizes itself ;) Up to this point I have not made a dime on this blog, just putting the info out there for the convenience of others so I only work when I can get around to it. Hopefully I can add the features you suggested, especially to the drop-down menus, in a few weeks.

Glad you enjoyed King's City, John! I haven't had their lunch buffet in a long time, but I eat the dinner buffet at least once a month :)

I have been craving the Reuben at Cornerstone so I plan to come back again soon, hopefully I will get you for a server :)

Cold Sassy Tree is on its way to me and I requested A Prayer for Owen Meany Looking forward to them!

I deleted the other comment with your name. How disappointing your experience was with Jake's. That is awful...nothing worse than bad service. I have not been back there myself just because there are so many other options out there for less money

Thanks Lauren. I will have to check out your Tulsa Food Blog, it looks like you may be doing something similar to this blog in the Tulsa area?

I didn't even realize that restaurant was still open as Sgt. Peppers??!! Haven't they changed ownership/names a few times?? Thanks for the recommendation!

Glad they're helpful. I will continue adding to them as I visit new restaurants and will have a permanent drop down menu near location and cuisine by next week!

John, You reminded me that there is also a seasonal Dino's location actually located within the State Fairgrounds and is only open during the Fair. I will have to look into which street it is on.

Thanks for the nice comment. I am so happy I could help :) Glad you enjoyed your dinner at Bambu! If you are interested in further reviews, please subscribe to my e-mail newsletter (All reviews will be sent to you via e-mail). Feel free to spread the word about the Twin Cities Restaurant Blog!

I was just talking to my friend that I went to Za with the night I did this review and we are going to make plans to go back soon :)

Thanks Ang! Since I am not getting paid for this blog, it would be nice to get some formal recognition!
