I absolutely loved my entire experience at this establishment! Amanda, Jackie, and Sam were all such joys to be around! Not to mention my club sandwich was amazing! If I could rate this place a 10 I would.
The food was really good. They are very busy around noontime. They should probably get a couple more waitresses as they are very busy and hard to flag down. Our server was very nice though. The indoor dining noise level is very loud. I would recommend dining at the outdoor patio. I will be going back to check out the dinner menu. I would give it a 8.5 outta 10. Nice cocktail selections.
Amazing food and drinks. The restaurant itself is decorated beautifully. Would totally recommend. I got pancake and fruit - delicious. My friend got French toast and hash browns. It all looks amazing and tastes incredible too!
Hurricane shrimp are not to be missed. Service has anyways been spot on. The red sangria is a favorite, not too sweet and goes down easy. Glasses are reasonable priced at $9. Chicken and wild rice soup is always hot and delicious. Chicken Marsala is also highly recommended. Ordered to go to bring home after our meal and it was well packaged and still warm upon arrival. Reservations recommended. Lot can get full during peak times but there is overflow. Location is on the ground floor of the 55+ apartment complex.
We went here at lunch on a gorgeous Saturday late morning, and they had seats available right away! Patio was full but they have huge walls that open to screen doors so even inside you feel the breeze! It was really roomy and the service was great too. We got the American Sunrise bowl, coffee cake and the steak tips. It was all so good, great flavor and you could tell how all the food was homemade, but very well made too. Steak tips were perfectly done, marinated and a great appetizer sized portion. The American sunrise bowl they were kind enough to split for us and it was still so much! Great biscuit, gravy was creamy and all the other parts hit right. Coffee cake was some of the best I've ever had, so light and not overly sweet. Overall a great experience, parking was fine too, you can street park if there's no space in the lots
Only half busy on a Tuesday made this a great casual experience. The prices are a little bit up there, but the food is definitely at that level. Steak was medium rare, as I ordered it with the salad. They do not skimp on topping ingredients, which is what makes a salad. I cleaned my bowl happily. The bartender waited on us and was knowledgeable. Definitely worth a visit if you don't mind paying a little extra for great food with someone important to you.
This is our goto restaurant when we're in the Twin Cities to meet up with our son. They have a wonderful selection for breakfast. I had the short stack. It was too much for me! VERY, very good flavor. Did I mention the bottomless coffee? AWESOME!
The bananas foster pancakes and the usual were delicious! We also had a hazelnut latte. We will definitely be back to check out lunch!!
Copperfield is an absolute standout for breakfast and brunch. Everything we ordered was fantastic, and it’s one of those places where you can tell real thought went into every dish. We tried the Mexican hash, the avocado toast, biscuits and gravy, and the mixed berry crepes, and there wasn’t a weak link on the table. The Mexican hash was especially impressive. The hash browns were lightly browned and perfectly cooked, not soggy and not burnt, just right. It came topped with a poached egg and a side of English muffin with jam, which was a nice touch. The salsa that comes with it is truly unique and unlike anything you’ve probably had elsewhere. That sense of originality really carries across the menu. The avocado toast was incredible, fresh, well balanced, and deeply satisfying. The mixed berry crepes were another highlight. The berries tasted naturally sweet and very fresh, not syrupy or overdone, which made the whole dish feel light and vibrant. Overall, our table enjoyed everything we ordered. Looking back at other breakfast spots we’ve been to, Copperfield easily rises to the top of the list. It’s creative, consistently well executed, and absolutely worth going out of your way for.
The food is really good, I had the Loaded Scramble (in photo) and my daughter had the Caramel Roll pancakes !! Service was awesome, very caring and kind. We had a spill and the other server that was passing at the moment ignored us when we told her, but our server came and assisted us with a loving heart, really nice!!! And the coffee… yum yum!!! It’s a bit pricey for the size but it delivers in flavor. Forgot to mention… the biscuit is SOOOO GOOD!!!
