Going on the tour this Saturday and looking for food options nearby. Any recommendations? Would like it to be within a couple miles if possible (no need to suggest Town Hall, Republic, or anything in Mpls). Thanks!
Using Yelp... http://www.victory-44.com/ is .9 miles from Surly, and it's 4/5 stars http://www.travailkitchen.com is 1.1 miles from Surly, and it's 4.5/5 stars. I haven't eaten at either, so I can't comment. And let's see if this works, here's the yelp search I was using. http://www.yelp.com/search?find_des...e1d87df3#find_desc=restaurants&show_filters=1
Travail is the best in the area, hands down. Ask for a "Fender" (mix of furious/bender), which is delicious. Go with the 2 person tasting menu if you have 2 people w you. Amazing food!
Go with Travail really amazing food, and I second the tasting menu suggestion. A little pricey but so worth it.
Travail is awesome. The tasting menu is something like $60 during the week and $85 on the weekend. This is for TWO people though. When we went, between the small bites and the 6 main courses, I think we tried 14 different things.
Be prepared to wait quite a while to get into Travail. My vote would be Victory 44. Equally as good on the food level with a better beer selection.
3 Squares in Maple Grove isn't far from Surly. Also Travail but you'll be waiting an hour or two and the bill will be $100+
cool, thanks guys! V44 it is. Think I need a reservation? probably head over there post-tour, 7:30ish.
