Used Seward Community Cafe and was very satisfied with the restaurant work. Got quotes from three companies and these guys had the best combination of price and professionalism. Really glad I chose them.

If I could give more than five stars I would. Not because any single visit blew my mind but because every single visit has been exactly what it should be. That reliability is rare.

The customer service here sets them apart from everyone else in the area. They remember you, they care about the details, and they go out of their way to make it right.

Seward Community Cafe does fresh, locally sourced food with pay-what-you-can options. The wild rice soup is peak Minnesota comfort food. $10-14 plates. Worker-owned cooperative, warm welcoming space. This is Minneapolis community values in edible form. Seward neighborhood gem.
