Raspberry pancakes were great, but the dark horse of the breakfast was the cold brew. Truly great.

Service was quick. Food was modern and had good flavor. Burger was solid! I highly recommend the mozzarella bites! They are so good and have nice flavor and they're not greasy.

I visited the Lowbrow for the second time on Saturday. The first time I went for dinner and ordered the pulled pork sandwich on a GF bun. It was alright! The bun fell apart really easily but that is to be expected with gluten free bread. On Saturday I called in the morning to make a reservation and was able to do so with no problem. I would highly recommend making a reservation as it was very busy! My meal was pretty yummy, although it's not super difficult to make a good brunch! I'm interested in trying out their date night meal! I was expecting the Wisconsin Hashers to be something different than the regular hashbrowns but the only difference I noted was the addition of cheese.

It was okay, not much flavor and kinda bland. The fire burger didn't have much kick and the mushroom and Swiss burger didn't leave me wanting more. But the Georgia peach tea was the biggest let down. Been to Georgia and that's not it. The place was cute tho and staff was super friendly. If I ever went again I think I would just go for drinks.

We are newer to living in Minneapolis and are always looking for new brunch spots. The Lowbrow exceeded expectations with service, atmosphere, food, and drinks! What a hidden gem! Dominic was our server and couldn't have been more perfect! The lady at the hostess stand was so kind as well. We hope to be regulars and hope to always be seated in Dominic's section!

Ever since moving to the “west side” of MPLS we have been trying to find a burger joint equivalent to Busters on 28th, the Howe, and the cardinal. Wowza— I think we found it! The burgers were full and cooked to our preferences and the fries were fantastic. Yumm! We ordered take out only because we had early work the next day and didn’t want to get out of our sweat pants. But cannot wait to go back and enjoy their variety of tap beers, cocktails, and fresh foods! So glad we are in biking distance.

Tried the blueberry pancakes and the chorizo breakfast tacos, everything was perfect! Scrambled eggs in the tacos were not dry and they didn’t skimp on the guac, which I appreciatedUpdate: returned and got the pastrami Reuben, delicious as well!

Great night out with good friends and good food. Started out with fried pickles,they are magical. My wife had the pesto melt with salad and I had a BBQ burger with fries. We actually split the sides so we each get salad and some fries. So tasty and it is nice that they take reservations and will take walk-ins too .

So so at best; pretty bad at worst. Decor was blah. Food was blah. Service was blah. Frankly, I can't figure out why the reviews are so good. Maybe it was an off day. My burger was overdone. It was the Sahara Desert, and it was very well done. The fries were borderline burnt and looked like they were overdone. They should not have left the kitchen. The server, an Asian American girl, was without personality and unremarkable. She looked like she was going through the motions. She also committed a serving sin by not writing down our order. Somehow, she got everything right. Do yourself a favor and go to Revival; their burger is worth the price. A Big Mac and fries from McDonald's would have been better and a lot cheaper. The only plus was I wasn't picking up the tab. :(I won't be back.

Have been going here at least once a month for years. LOVE the americana burger (quality patties, gooey cheese deliciousness) and the GF chocolate peanut butter cookie. BF has to get his own cookie because I WILL NOT SHARE. Looking forward to it coming back on the menu.
