Noa - Minneapolis

Menu options were limited and nothing novel. Chicken sandwich was cold and not crisp.

Crispy chicken thighs app was worth the visit here. Nice ying and yang of sweet heat going on and the crispy batter held up to the sauce. Diverse menu with a mix of Californian and Midwestern cuisine. Asian salad had so many wontons though that we jokingly said it should be renamed Won-ton salad. Noa burger had great flavor but the fries were a bit pale (underdone). Cocktail's were great and the chocolate cake was deliciously MOIST! They seemed a bit understaffed as they only had two people waiting tables, one hostess and one bartender for a Saturday night, so the service was a little slow, but pleasant.

Another solid world lunch. Love the mocktails I rotate through all three over lunch meetings. All are tasty and handcrafted with no alcohol. The Buffalo Chicken Salad is great, whether grilled or fried chicken. And our server, Sam, was attentive but never obtrusive. Such a good spot.

Everything we tried was amazing, but the crispy chicken thighs are on a new level. Highly recommend.

Another great lunch meeting at Noa. My guest had never been, but enjoyed the craft beer selection, and our server, Mica's knowledge of beers on tap. His Cobb Salad was well presented, prepared and apportioned. My Noa burger was on point, but also really enjoy my mixed green salad and tangy dressing. Mica took great care of us, and we were seated, greeted, served, and out with great efficiency.
