I’ve eaten here. Several times food is great, service is exemplary, if you have the opportunity to sit outside your view is downtown Minneapolis over the river.Vegetarian options: Enough changing options to keep me happy. The staff is more than happy to work with you

This café is ok. Our server was not very friendly and she did not accomodate us to be closer to the window like we asked (we went in the afternoon and it was pretty dark inside). The cappuccino was good with a nice foam on the top. What they call flatbread is more like a tasty thin crust pizza. We tried the one with prosciutto and truffle. The prosciutto is cooked with the pizza not added after, like we were told by the server.

Great music at brunch and after not visiting Aster cafe for very long time I’m still just as disappointed with their food and lack of flexibility. Great location, vibe and service they just need better food.

Was invited to a Bluegrass brunch here and enjoyed! The space is definitely cozy, maybe even a bit cramped and a little dim. This didn't really bother me, but wanted to be clear in the review if it's not a good thing for others. Brunch had both breakfast and lunch items, traditional with a little flare. The two I brunched with had the brisket grits, I went with the Thai peanut noodles. Noodles were good, a hair spicy. Our server was excellent, knowing when to come over between music as to not interrupt that experience. Would recommend a visit during music or not.

The patio is the star of the show, try and sit outside if the weathers good. Food is solid with a good cocktail menu.

Love the Aster! Just moved back here after being gone for 5 years. Came in for a glass of wine. The manager Sean heard it was my birthday and gave me a $100 gift card! WOW!!!! So grateful! This is why I love the Aster! Great place with great management and great atmosphere!!!!

Aster is cozy and consistent! We love visiting in the summer to sit on the huge patio overlooking the river, and in the winter to experience the warm interior. I always love their winter-forward salads, great wine and cocktail selection, and generous sandwiches and bowls. There's something for everyone here, so we're always coming back.
