Message from the Business
Experience the Mediterranean in this family-owned restaurant that thrives on the unique flavors of the Mediterranean coastal countries. Greece, Turkey, Lebanon, Egypt and North Africa have all contributed to the tantalizing menu of this cafe. The Mediterranean cultures are exemplified brilliantly.
Located on Highway 13 in Burnsville, the restaurant features comfortable atmosphere, great service and meat so tender you can cut it with a fork. Our most popular menu items include hummus, shish kabobs, lamb shanks, stir fry, steak, shrimp and baklava. On Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights, belly dancers entertain diners.
Take advantage of the Gyro Pack for Two: one pound of gyro, two pieces of pita bread, 1/2 pint of garlic sauce and a Greek salad for only $14.95 (takeout only). Add small Hummos for $5.95 and a Skewer of Chicken Kabob over rice for $6.95.

on Citysearch Dec 27, 2008We read other good reviews on this place and wondered if it was worth a drive across the cities. Turns out, it was. The food was as good or better than any we've had at Holy Land, Christos or Santorini. The service was... (more)

on Citysearch Nov 01, 2008Schrimp Shish Kabob is excellent as are some of the other dishes. Dinner service has been pretty good, but lunch service is often inconsistent. It seems like they usually only have one person at lunch so if it gets... (more)

on Citysearch Mar 16, 2008It's a shame that the Cruise Cafe hasn't gotten a bit more press in the "best of" restaurants. It's one of those hole-in-the-wall places where the staff remembers you by name, always has great food and can (usually)... (more)

on Citysearch Mar 10, 2008I have been to the MCC several times because let's face it, there isn't exactly an abundance of greek food in the burbs. The last time I went I spent around $25 on their lamb chops, a greek staple. They came out burnt... (more)

on Citysearch Nov 12, 2007I love "The Cruise!" Even though it's a small place and therefore sometimes has a wait, it's well worth it. The food is delicious! The garlic dip is the best and the warm pita is good to eat even by itself, and the chicken... (more)

on Citysearch Jul 24, 2007I've been going to this restaurant for years. I love their food, and the belly dancers are fantastic. The city of Eagan is attempting to seize their property to make way for yet another fake main street, so go check them... (more)
