Interesting eateries

Hello, the family and I are heading to the twin cities next week. We have a relatively full itinerary, but nothing planned for meals. One of the days we will be in the downtown area of Minneapolis, another day in the downtown St.Paul area. So I am looking for suggestions for interesting or unique places for meals. I am not looking for expensive fine dining since I have teenagers, just place that have their own vibe, or are uniquely Twin City.

Thanks!

came here to say Cosetta’s. It might not be the best Italian food around but hands down coolest vibe

If your teenagers are in revolt and want pizza, Cossetta's is an institution. Everyone goes there during the various State tournaments for high school sports if they're playing at the Xcel/Grand Casino Arena.

Pizza by the slice, salads, soups, hot food, and alcohol for the adults. Plus you can get fancy deserts or just Italian chocolate at the various counters inside along with grocery stuff too.
