    When I think of Eagan, I think of CiCi's. However, that's probably not the best choice healthwise.

    A quick search gave me a place called Sambol. It has Sri Lankan cuisine. It looks good, but doesn't provide nutritional information. http://www.sambol.com/

    I love CiCi's, it's a problem. :blushing:

    If I think of anything, I'll let you know. Q. Cumbers has the best salad bar in the cities, but it's a buffet so it also includes unlimited amounts of other not-so-healthy things.

    www.tracyssaloon.com (scratch kitchen, good beer, neighborhood feel)

    I love French Meadow in Minneapolis. Most people know it for their bakery and awesome brunch, but they also have a great dinner. Lots of vegetarian options, healthy menu, and it's delicious!

    For Eagan, I would vote Granite City, but I love their beer!

    A favorite of mine is Chino Latino in uptown. They have a wide array of choices. I had my wedding rehearsal dinner there. They get busy on the weekends so you would have to call and make a reservation for two. : ))
