The Loon Cafe

The Loon is Amazing, I love all the Menu items, so hard to choose from them. Always great Friendly Fast service. Definitely a must stop in Downtown Mpls.

Normally the place is great!! But the service last time missed the mark. We ordered cheese curds to start and then entrees. The dinner came out and we said we didn’t get our appetizer and she just said oh I’m sorry. Didnt offer anything up, just moved right on. Then we said all three of us are celebrating our birthday and she just said oh here’s our desserts. In my experience working in restaurants, when you totally miss an appetizer you do something. We had a $6 beer - offer to comp that or do something. Three birthdays and you don’t even say happy birthday or talk about birthday dessert? The lack of hospitality and making anything special does not make me want to come back here. There are plenty of other restaurants with nice servers who take their time and make your experience special - especially for three birthdays/ anything you are choosing to celebrate at their establishment.

Went right before a Twins game and with 3 people was seated in about 10 minutes. Got served quickly, food cam out fast and it was really tasty. Had the Veggie chili and it has a kick! I think a hotter chili would have been too spicy, but medium spice was flavorful and good.
