Cadillac Ranch - Mall of America, Bloomington, MN

Having been away from Minnesota for so long, I welcomed any new dining experience that comes my way. While doing some shopping at the MOA, we decided it was time to grab a bite. All parties involved were feeling American food and this is where we ended up.

• Cuisine: American - Burgers, sandwiches, pastas, steaks, salads, and many sharable appetizer options.  

• Favorite Food Items: Cowboy bites with fries and chicken wild rice soup

• Price: $$- Price is about what you'd expect to pay at a place like this. Food options similar to what you may find at a TGIF, or Granite City. Most meal items are in the $8-12 range, with steak meals ranging from $20-33. I'd say the average tab for a two person meal including drinks would cost you about $26.

• Ambience:  The bar set up in this place seemed like a entertaining place to hang out with friends on a thurs-saturday night...if you are in the mall already. The decor was impressive and the bull machine was entertaining to observe to say the least. If you are looking for a place to have a nice quiet dinner though, you may want to pass on this place. Lots of energy here.

• Dress Code: Casual would be just fine. Being located on the 3rd floor of the Mall of America, I'm sure this place has seen people dressed in a variety of options. 

• Shell's Rating: 2.5 out of 5. The food was average. Many of the items on the menu looked like things I could get at your average american bar and grill. I gave it 2.5 for the fun atmosphere and decor. I would be willing to give this place another chance if I was in the area and their happy hour specials looked appealing.
