Looking Inside the Most Exciting Lakeside Dining of the Season - Eater Twin Cities

"Restaurateur Matty O’Reilly and chef JD Fratzke have restaurants operating all over the Twin Cities. Spring Cafe is the optimistically named restaurant that opened the same weekend an historic blizzard struck the Twin Cities. It’s located in the Como Lakeside Pavillion with year-round facilities and seating that overlooks the still-freezing cold water. The restaurant serves a menu that’s a mix of portable sandwiches and salads with sit down options like nachos, brisket or walleye dinners and a selection of desserts. Spring Cafe also has a full bar with $10 cocktails. The cafe space inside the Como Lakeside Pavillion underwent a major renovation in 2015." - Joy Summers
