Taste Of Min/時代大排檔

I recently had dinner at Taste of Min in Duluth and went with a small group so we were able to try several dishes, and honestly every single one exceeded expectations. First off, the restaurant itself has a really comfortable and authentic feel. It’s casual but lively, and you can tell a lot of people there are regulars who know exactly what they came for. The staff were welcoming and efficient even though the place was busy. Food came out at a great pace, which made it perfect for sharing multiple plates. We ordered a variety of dishes so we could try a bit of everything, and it really felt like each one had its own personality rather than tasting similar like you sometimes get at other places. Something I really liked about the meal overall was how well everything complemented each other

Our friends recommended this hot pot place and we really enjoyed it! Although I recommend knowing some or bringing someone who knows Chinese, my boyfriend had to order and talk for me 🥲 But all the staff were very kind and attentive to our table! I got the Golden base soup because they said it was spicy and sour, but less spicy. My boyfriend got it normal and it was a bit too spicy for his liking but he still loved it! I love that we could get up and get what we want from the bar of food, including meats and desserts at the end! (I loved the coffee ice cream 🤤)

I can say this place is comfort place to hang out, chill with friends and family and have tasty Hot Pot in reasonable price. They have options of vegetable and noodles, but for meat, have only 3 options but it was totally fine. You can mix and match your sauce by yourselves. Most of the ingredients were frozen though. Overall, we really enjoy it. They also have ice cream for dessert too.

Lunch price (Adult $19.98) even on weekends! Great value! When we were there on a Sunday lunch time, the restaurant was average 60-80% full. Quick service. But the professionalism for some employees could use some improvements (more greeting, more chit chat, be more proactively to ask guests on what they want to order, etc). Decent amount of food to choose from, which they have the beef with less fat. All in all, we had a great dining experience and will consider to return and will recommend this place!

This location was previously a hot pot place but is now a late night Chinese restaurant by the same owner. It's super confusing reading the reviews- there is no hot pot anymore. Sit down and enjoy Chinese salted peanuts and soy pickled diakon. Food is presented well and is well loved by those from Fuzhou. Love that this option is available to those who miss these dishes. For daily selections, go straight to the back and pick out the market offerings. Pros: Cons: water only available by water bottles The restaurant decor and signs are all in Chinese.
