Minneapolis, MN
What makes phone traffic hard for Minneapolis restaurants?
Minneapolis has the largest Somali diaspora community in the United States, and the restaurants serving that community — along with the city's Hmong restaurants, farm-to-table spots, and the James Beard-recognized dining scene in the North Loop — represent some of the most loyal, community-driven clientele anywhere. Minnesota winters also mean call and delivery volume spikes dramatically from November through April.
