For starters... the music is great. Go in there with the mindset that you want to relax. I don't know how it could be too noisy. Even though a jazz band would use speakers to amplify their music, let's keep in...

Be conversational: Write it as if relaying your experience to a good friend. Be specific: Generalities like "lazy service" or "tasty pizza" leave people wanting more detail. Be yourself: If you're an expert on...

We went to Thistles with a group of about 30-40. When I walked in I could hardly believe that it was the same place. They did so much remodeling. We were put in a very lovely decorated room with a huge window...

It's so nice to have a place like this in Robbinsdale, where there are so few nice restaurants. The food was great, and came very fast. Wonderful atmosphere, loved the piano. Highly recommended.

Ventured over to "downtown" Robbinsdale after the Star Trib review. Thistles must've paid close attention to the scant recommendations because the bread basket, Caesar salad, and desserts were impressive....

Have to say I looked at the two other reviews and was unsure about what to expect. The good review looks like it's canned and put there by the owner. The other is bad. Have to say it was a very good...
