MSP Pizza

I am on a mission to find the best pizza in the MSP area. Been to and love Black Sheep, but trying to find other suggestions. Besides Punch, what else would people recommend? Auriga had the best thin crusts in the day. Does Toast still do the similar ones?

3 Dining Options on a Seattle Visit

I grew up originally in Seattle, but currently live in Minneapolis and am gearing up for a visit in June. We are looking for 3 Dining options Thurs, Friday and Saturday and are really interested in almost any suggestions. We love the foodie type restaurants and have really enjoyed Lola and the Dahlia Lounge in the past, but are really open to any suggestions; higher end or even fast casual. Just looking for some can't miss places. We are staying at the Inn at the Market on Thursday and Friday night and really appreciate any suggestions.

Thursday and Friday night - Any thing close in downtown - thursday night we get in and would love to try something new. We were thinking something like Etta's or maybe even Campagne in our hotel. Friday is along the same lines and we are meeting 4 other people.

Saturday is a little more complicated. My family and their kids are meeting us before the M's game at 7. 11 total, 4 of them are kids. Would have to eat at 5 and ideally close to the stadium. Still want a nice place, but some where mellow, as many of the kids are younger 3-4. Our boy is 5 but is a fantastic diner and has been to many great restaurants in town. Thanks in advance.

MSP - Visitor in town- suggestions?

Thanks all who have participated in helping me find some good choices. Some of these places I will just have to "research" before my guest comes to town :) After your write up soupkitten, I am intrigued more than ever now. FYI just went to Cafe Lurcat last night for the first time since they have been open, if I make it to downtown I usually always go to the sure thing 112, sad when you consider I live in South Minneapolis, but it was fabulous. The apple and manchego salad is really simple, yet elegant and a wonderful combination. Overall I was really impressed and honestly surprised. Then again, I have heard a lot of good things about it lately

MSP - Visitor in town- suggestions?

Awesome thanks all for your suggestions. I loved your review of Porter and Frye and have also enjoyed a visit to tru in chicago. Here is my list so far. Also has anyone heard anything about Sanctuary? I overheard someone talking about it once, looked it up and it looks like it could be interesting, but also may be bad too.

Porter and Frye
Spoonriver
Heidis
112 Eatery
Town Talk Diner
The Strip Club
Cafe Lurcat
B.A.N.K.
Yum - although quick service, I love their space, albeit a bit confusing for most

We are going to try and hit as many places as we can, but obviously cannot hit them all, so any ommissions, opinions and additions are very welcome

MSP - Visitor in town- suggestions?

Sorry for being so vague on the original post. He is from Chicago and is interested in both food, but also hip swanky and cool. We will probably be going out in the evenings and I guess he really wants to see the best food and best new things MSP has to offer. Unfortunately, I am not as hip swanky and cool as I would like to think I used to be, but any ideas would be wonderful.
