Server and other staff were friendly and courteous. For our party of four, Iron Range Porchetta sandwich and Good Citizen burgers were tasty; but, Citizen Club sandwich was just OK (although the roasted turkey was good). Cheers to good cocktails & wine.

Terrible terrible terrible! We arrived 10 minutes before reservation. Barely anyone in the restaurant but hostess took about 2 minutes to clear a table. Once seated and after about 10 minutes, no one had yet brought menus. I searched to retrieve and found a waitress and told her we had not received menus. She was rude and snapped at me that someone would bring the menus. Waited another 10-15 minutes- still no menus. The same wait person took the menus from my hand and said “we are done with breakfast it is just brunch now”. Our reservation was at 10. We came for breakfast and there were no breakfast options and the menu had very little in the way of a good meal just small items. We left without ordering.

Excellent dining experience facilitated by Chris who was attentive and friendly. My wife and I had before dinner drinks which were expertly done. I had a Manhattan, and my wife a Mojito. Highly recommend the French Canadian onion soup, delicious, and very hearty. The deviled eggs appetizers were probably the best deviled eggs I have ever had! I settled for a club sandwich, and even being a big eater I could not finish it due to the generous portions. Also, the rum bread pudding with vanilla ice cream topped with caramel corn will not disappoint and is meant to be shared. Will definitely come here again when in Saint Paul. It was nice of the general manager, Jennifer, to introduce herself and chat with me, nice touch!

This was a dinner experience and at this restaurant it can be private. It is not at all crowded on week days. The cheese plate and deviled eggs are amazing. The deviled eggs are spicy. Low noise level and personalized service. Perfect if you are stay IHG St Paul Riverfront hotel.
