"We celebrated a birthday dinner which I noted in our OpenTable reservation. There were four of us. Our server was super friendly. My husband and I shared a full rack of ribs. He took his first bite and it was just awful dry and so chewy he couldn't keep it in his mouth. I've never seen him ever do this. The manager was nearby and I flagged him down. He handled it beautifully and said I will make you a new order right away. Our waitress checked on us soon after and I informed her of what happened. the new plate of ribs was very good tender and falling off the bone. The corn bread appetizer was yummy and the other entrees were good. Waitress didn't keep our drinks filled and she spaced out getting us a container for our cole slaw to take home. She didn't offer anything for the birthday boy. The manager did end up taking off the ribs from our bill which was very nice and the right thing to do."

"Gluten friendly menu options. But, please be weary ensure your server the BOH understands your dietary needs what precisely you cannot have. There is often a language barrier in Asian restaurants to be honest, not all Asian cultures respect acknowledge that there are REAL dietary concerns e.g. celiac disease) out there. A lot of the language barriers prevent the proper exchange understanding of what gluten is. Note: the eel sauce, miso soup, onion soup teriyaki sauce are NOT celiac friendly. Depending on your server how well he/she can communicate, you can ask for certain items WITHOUT “crunchy” aka panko to make it gluten free. For example, the kani squid salad). Miso onion soup are NOT GF. $41.83 $29 plus lemonade 20% tip that’s for one person) not bad for this all you can eat joint. I do like that TS offers this grilled squid, salt pepper shrimp green mussels option as a part of the AYCE. The quality of the sashimi isn’t quite as “there” as my experience with Kyoto, but the selections are still good. I haven’t been to Kyoto in a hot minute so I’m not sure if their price bumped up $5 too; if you’re gonna do AYCE, better bring your stretchy pants. I didn’t even get through the first round of orders. I really liked the salmon teriyaki, moist, flavorful cooked to perfection. The onion soup was very salty. The shrimp tempura with the yum yum sauce was perfect Normally I like to include my server’s name in my reviews, but I didn’t catch hers. My server was as prompt as she could be with all the tables she had, cliché, but like most Asian servers, her personality lacked. I said thank you with every food delivery she made every refill of my lemonade she made she never winced once. Sure, she had a mask on, but facial expressions aren’t the only way to express personality. If you’d like great service, visit Phil at the Kyoto in Eagan. Best service I have ever had. He gets to know you your order even addresses me by name cause I was such a regular when I lived there)."

"Our server was pleasant. But didn’t stop by very often. She walked by empty drink glasses 3 times with out stopping. The restaurant was only 1/3 full. She had 3 tables. Two of our orders included fries. Both orders were soggy and cold. The lemon pepper bowl was marginal at best. They also add a 4% fee for employee wellness. I’ll just leave it at that. The experience wasn’t horrible. I wouldn’t recommend eating here as maple grove has many other choices with better service and better food."

"When the waitress came to our table, the first thing she did was crack her knuckles... Total turnoff. Sadly disappointed when I learned that The Manhandler is no longer on the menu, I ordered the chunk pork. The flavor was fine, however, 1/4 of the serving was a large chunk of nonedible skin. The healthy side order of steamed broccoli was dried out. Remembering the warm, cinnamon/sugar apple sauce including slices of apple, I order this as the second side order and was greatly disappointed when served with a cup of prepackaged Mott 's brand, no sugar added applesauce. This was the Worst meal I have ever seen served in a restaurant and was embarrassed of the decision to bring friends family there."

"Yes, Wagner’s is a real old-time drive-in burger place. You flip the switch on a beat up menu and that signals a waitress to come take your order. Your tray hangs on your door window until you flip the switch again, signaling you are finished, and someone picks it up. The atmosphere is friendly. Relaxed but attentive. But oh my, the burgers! I got the 1/4 lb cheeseburger (they also have 1/3lb and it was beautifully seared and slightly misshapen (meaning it was handmade! , with cheese and fried onions and mushrooms and it arrived just off the grill and it was wonderful. The fries were crispy. The root beer float was heavenly. There are lots of fine Twin Cities burger restaurants but Wagner’s is our favorite summer-mid-afternoon-relax-and-enjoy-the-moment-and-food-and-each-other place."
