A visit to U of M wouldn't be complete without a stop at this favorite all-American grill. A popular retreat for alums, students and families, Annie's is also a great place to catch a view of the Minneapolis skyline on the rooftop deck during good weather. The restaurant is legendary for its juicy burgers, which come in all sorts of combinations: mushroom cheddar, bacon cheese, guacamole burgers and three-bun burgers.

The eatery's also known for its french fries, which are hand-cut, and deep fried to golden perfection. You couldn't really call it a parlor unless it also served some sort of icy sweet-tooth concoctions as well. Those just happen to be another specialty, and you simply cannot leave without ordering a huge three-scoop malt or hot fudge sundae, which is accompanied by a pitcher filled with extra fudge. -- Amie Leavitt
