Relish is THE place to be on a Monday night! The vibe is super cute and welcoming, with options of bar or table seating. The staff are all super kind and on top of things, and were great about checking on tables, refilling waters, etc. You do have to try your luck with street parking, but I was luckily able to find a spot right around the corner.They have daily specials, but Monday's is far and away the best--a meatball sub for $8 (usually $14), with the option to add fries for $2. This was my first meatball sub in over a decade and it genuinely changed my life. The sauce was perfectly seasoned, the meatballs were juicy, the bread was buttered and toasted to perfection, and the whole sandwich came out HOT and fresh! The fries were also perfectly seasoned and definitely worth the extra $2.I also got the relish plate ($6), a small appetizer of house-pickled vegetables. As a big fan of pickled anything, I loved this--my favorites were probably the pickle spears themselves, but everything was great!I also got the pesto pasta ($16)--it wasn't quite as mind-blowing as that meatball sub, but still really solid!As if the meatball sub isn't enough of an incentive to get you there Monday nights, they also have trivia at 7pm! Overall, a really great spot to get an affordable and delicious bite at a non-chain restaurant in the Central/Hennepin area.
