"This place was much anticipated (I was basically counting down the days until it opened) and it did not disappoint. Their bagels are boiled, topped on both sides (game changer), and baked, which results in chewy and crispy bagels. The shop is owned by two fabulous sisters, Jen and Kate, who made it a mission to taste test bagels from the poster children of bagel cities (Montreal, New York City, etc.) They came back to Minneapolis afterward to open Rise, and everyone in the city is so glad they did."

"Stroll outside to the adjacent Minneapolis Sculpture Garden to see perhaps the most-photographed feature in the city, Claes Oldenburg and Coosje van Bruggen’s “Spoonbridge and Cherry.” Or head to the bustling Nicollet Mall to browse the shops or enjoy a cocktail al fresco before dinner at Butcher and the Boar (a James Beard semi-finalist) for exquisite house-cured meats and homemade pickles. If you don’t have reservations, don’t worry. The outside beer garden serves less casual fare with the same amazing ingredients."
