21 Things About Let’s Dish! 🎉
In honor of our golden birthday (yep, we’re turning 21 on October 21!) – we wanted to celebrate by sharing 21 fun facts about Let’s Dish!
First Retail Location
Let’s Dish! opened its first location in Eden Prairie 21 years ago today! We recently moved from that location to our brand-new EP store located at 16364 Wagner Way, right off of the NE corner of highways 4&5!
Meals That Matter
Over the past 21 years, we’ve donated countless meals to local charities for families in need in the twin cities area.
Throwback to Our First Brochure
We’re taking it back to the very beginning with a look at our very first brochure! It’s amazing to see how far we’ve come.

We were in TCL back in 2013 and we’ll be making an on air appearance again in November! Stay tuned for the segment.
Katie’s Journey to VP
Our incredible VP of Development and Operations, Katie, attended our very first private party (as a friend of a friend of a friend…). Now, she’s the mastermind behind many of our delicious menu items, and we honestly don’t know what we’d do without her!
Pre-iPhone Era
Let’s Dish! was born before the iPhone even existed. Crazy, right?
Made with Love
All of our Let's Dish meals are made with love by our incredible team, many who were first customers first.

With our new retail model, we now carry 37 favorites menu items year round, and change 25 (sometimes more!) seasonal menu items, which we rotate through the year.
Chicken Lo Mein
Another original! Our Chicken Lo Mein has been enhanced over the years, but it’s still one of our top-selling menu items, loved by families everywhere.
Storefront Surprise
In 2021, a car crashed into one of our storefronts! Thankfully, no one was hurt, but it’s definitely a story to remember.

We’re a family business through and through. Over the years, many family member combinations have worked for Let’s Dish.
