We had a LOVELY Christmas dinner at Kincaid's! My companion had the pork chop and I had the prime rib. Both were scrumptious! Our server, Lindsay, was outstanding- as sweet and attentive as could be! This was our third Christmas in a row at Kincaid's- it's become a wonderful tradition!

This was the second Christmas Eve my family went to Nicollet Island Inn for dinner. The festive and cozy atmosphere is unmatched. We’ve enjoyed appetizers, dinner, and dessert both times as well. Highly recommend for a holiday dinner.

Three days later and we were still raving about our evening at Joan’s. The place has a casual elegance that’s a tough spot to hit. The owners are present and engaged in authentic hospitality. Their wine list is well paired with their exceptional food leaves us very happy and well sated. Whenever you want to feel special and celebrated, take yourself to Joan and Susan’s and leave filled in belly and spirit.

We really enjoyed this beautiful restaurant and the view inside the Union Depot. We all ordered different food items on the menu from soups and salads to steaks and fish. Everyone one of us enjoyed our meal. The prices are very reasonable. I love going to restaurants where potatoes and vegetables are included with the entrees. We will be back. I have been recommending this restaurant to everyone looking for a new place to try.
