Hip yet mature, healthy while decadent. Not the average downtown restaurant! Great curry or burger or pastas- they've got a unique version of most everything. We adore their brunch. SO GOOD.

People who take their diet seriously have a friend in Spoonriver owner Brenda Langton: Vegetables, and specifically locally grown, organic vegetables, are the root of most of her dishes. Read more

Ordered the hummus appetizer plate prior to attending a show at the Guthrie. It was excellent. They do have a small outdoor patio. Great service as well

With an almost entirely gluten-free menu and a half vegetarian menu, Spoonriver really delivers great flavor and packs a lot of punch. Try it out! Read more

This is by no stretch of the imagination a vegan place. There are vegan/vegetarian options but there is also plenty of tasty hoof, fin and feather on the menu.

One of best places for post-holiday eating! Langton's food is impeccable and doesn't need to rely on lard, bacon, heavy cream, or additional sweeteners to make it soar.

Come for lunch around 12:45 when the Guthrie crowd clears out! Their specials are always on point.

Love the food here! Excellent for vegetarians and so close to the Mill City Museum.

Listen to the waiters - they really know the menu and have great suggestions! Perfect portions sizes too.

It's ok. The place is suuuper tiny and narrow like an old diner. The lunch menu is SEVERELY limited. We were unable to try nothing that was recommended here. Also they are very stingy with the hummus.

Try the stone arch sling: old overholt rye, benedictine and heering cherry w lemon.

Great for vegetarian and vegan folks, BUT also meat selections that jive with Eco and local conscious people.

Come here for a wonderful, fresh meal or just dessert. Pumpkin brûlée or bête noir (double choc mousse cake).

Excellent vegetarian dishes but service is a bit lacking. They should pay more attention to their diners.

Always get the seafood special. It's what will be served in heaven.

They will call a cab for you if you need one.

Get the Tuna Sandwich and the Moroccan Mojito - but the Bloody Mary is not better than Red Stag's.

Get the vegetarian special; it never fails.

Beware the specials... My dinner was ok, but definitely not worth the $29 I paid for it.... Price was listed as open
