Best Restaurants with a Happy Hour in Cottage Grove

The meal was fantastic. The bees knee martini was perfect and the walleye was delicious! I loved that it was crowded so early but you were still able to talk to someone across from you. Huge points for that alone! We would definitely go back!!

We had an outstanding birthday celebration luncheon at Ciao Bella. Our server, Jordan, was professional, knowledgeable, friendly, and very helpful. He’s really one of the best in the industry! We can always count on Ciao Bella, for an excellent dining experience: our beet salad was exceptional , my butternut squash soup was fabulous, the calamari was tasty and fresh, and the braised lamb pasta was perfect. Thank you for an amazing meal and excellent service!

Had the pear sandwich for dinner, the queso for the chips was homeade and next level good. My date had the bison tacos, they were delicious. We had the lemon ricotta hot cakes and bison Benedict for breakfast the next morning. The service was excellent, I am going to recommend it to everyone going to Minneapolis and I will definitely go again.

Met a business colleague there for lunch and was impressed. Lots of light made the space feel open and airy. Menu was diverse. I chose the meatloaf which was a daily lunch feature and my friend had the Reuben which he said was excellent and looked amazing. The meatloaf was very good and a large portion. I would come back for happy hour to see who the restaurant draws in the evening.

Great environment, and ambience, service was wonderful, food was great, little pricey but understandable.
