128 Cafe

Don’t judge 128 Café by its basement location under an apartment building on Cleveland Avenue—once inside, the coziness and warmth of the small space and the smells of delicious local ingredients will make you realize you’ve chosen a winner. The location and small size almost make it feel like an insider secret, and 128 Café is definitely a secret worth keeping. The menu is always changing, but the ribs are a Twin Cities favorite that transforms customers into regulars.
