    Food was excellent. Quite noisy, but we were given a booth with high backs and were able to easily hear conversation at our table. Love seeing the place was busy with lots of young people and a mix of other ages. Minneapolis is alive and well. Wishing Nolos lots of success.

    Excellent food and service! Although loud, it was very enjoyable. Loved the energy and scene. We kept it simple and ordered a pepperoni pizza and the filet mignon sliders with a salad. All were amazing! Service was outstanding!

    We went on a weekday happy hour. We enjoyed the selection of dishes we ordered. They were all delicious. Enjoyed sitting by the front window and watching people walk by.
