“ Food has always been good. Drinks are well made (we had a Cucumber Collins and a Margarita). The Buffalo Buttermilk chicken sandwich is worth the money. Fried pickles are nummy. The place is small and gets loud quickly, even when it isn't packed - so know that in case hearing is a challenge. Prices are higher than other places, yet the quality is there. ”
“ Where do I begin? First off, the service provided by both Lucy and Izzy was by far some of the best service I have experienced. Both made sure that I was taken care of and that I was set up for the best lunch. How do you say know to a 8 burger lunch special? I can only rave positively about my time at Flask. Next time I’m in Mankato, I’ll be sure to stop back!!!! ”

“ 5 Stars – A Complete Turnaround Thanks to Chef Moises! I’ve been to this restaurant before and honestly, I didn’t have the best experience in the past. But everything changed when I recently returned and had the pleasure of trying food prepared by the new chef, Moises. Wow—what a difference! The flavors, presentation, and overall quality of the food were absolutely incredible. I ordered the buttermilk chicken sandwich, and it was hands down one of the best I’ve ever had—crispy, juicy, perfectly seasoned, and full of flavor. You can tell Chef Moises brings passion, skill, and creativity to every dish. It felt like a completely new restaurant—in the best way possible. If you’ve been hesitant to give this place another shot, trust me: now is the time. Chef Moises is doing something special here, and I can’t recommend it enough. I’ll definitely be coming back! ”
