A large indoor mecca of food stands and food markets. Some of my faves include Taco Cat, Manny's Tortas, Salty Tart bakery is amazing, Jakeenos pizza, Not much for ambience, but worth it for the cheap great eats. Just inside the main building is a lovely korean full service restaurant and bar called the Rabbit Hole.

Very secret spot recently opened in the heart of Uptown Minneapolis. It's designed as a classic art deco/art nouveau/victorian hybrid speakeasy complete with hidden rooms behind bookcases, secret passsage through phone booth and insiders-only reserved booths with service through mirrors. Craft cocktails and a small menu will delight. It's located in the back of a building next to a dumpster in the alley. Red light above the door is your only clue. Knock for admission. Often a line out the door to tip you off.
