 From Dunn Brothers website:
"The Official Home of Taste started in 1987, by two brothers, Ed and Dan Dunn in St. Paul, Minnesota.
Committed to flavor and freshness, their model was simple: roast the beans in the store and eliminate the usual channels that compromise how delicious a cup of coffee could actually be.
Seven years later, Chris Eilers and Skip Fay become the first franchisees. In 1998 Chris and Skip purchase the franchise rights to grow the Dunn Brothers brand to help expand the availability of the remarkable standard of flavor and taste Dunn Brothers was known for (in fact, City Page readers have voted Dunn Brothers the best cup of coffee in the Twin Cities over 10 times)."

Here are some quotes on the event from our employees and some attendees: 

We sure had a lot of fun for such a soggy, dreary night! With an estimated 1000 guests in attendance, nearly 900 samples were served! I was happy to help educate so many people about the new and improved Morgan’s Farm to Table experience.The grass fed filet mignon, creamy onion risotto and smoked tomato demi-glace worked its magic and helped make some new friends. Winning the first place title for Best Food Item was icing on the cake. It continues to reinforce the sustainability efforts that we are employing at Morgan’s. You have to listen to the customer to make sure you are on track with your business. At the Taste of Lakeville, the customer spoke loud and clear. I can’t wait to participate in next years’ event!!! 


Michael Goodman - VP of Food and Beverage Operations


Thank you so much for having your excellent restaurant – Morgan’s – participate in our Rotary’s annual “Taste of Lakeville” fundraiser!  It was such a pleasure to see people lined up seven deep at your tent – the food was marvelous – fresh and beautifully prepared – just like every day at Morgan’s.  I should know, I eat there often enough!

The “Taste of Lakeville” is a Lakeville treasure – thanks to food vendors like you all at Morgan’s, and to the tremendously supportive Lakeville citizens – we raise more than $100,000 each year, and it all stays in Lakeville!  Your participation means that Rotary can provide mentors for middle and high school students; we can support Lakeville’s seniors, and Lakevillians without food, or a roof over their heads.  We can provide playgrounds for the handicapped and staff to help local non-profits shelter and strengthen desperate, abused women and children.

Thanks to Morgan’s, and other fine local restaurants, the Rotary is able to give meaningful support to the community we all love.  Thank you so much for your participation!

Cheryl Morton, Sterling State Bank

While being somewhat new to the area, I wasn't quite sure what to expect. The weather was being uncooperative, and we had A LOT of setup to do. However, upon arrival there was electricity in the air (and not from the weather). I started to get excited! It's hard not to though, when you're serving All Natural Grassfed Tenderloin!! Our Chefs were delicately slicing the Strauss Farms (Franklin, WI) Filet and serving it over a Creamy Onion Risotto that they were making ON THE FLY right there in our tent! The Cream and butter for the Risotto were from Hope Creamery in Hope, MN! Lastly, we topped it with a Smoked Tomato Demi-Glace made with Steve's Hydroponic Tomatoes out of Wells, MN! 3 of the 6 Local farmers we work with, were represented in this offering. Word quickly got around, and before we knew it there was a line of people braving the weather to sample our wares. At the end of it all, we met a bunch of great people, sampled some great food, and received the Judge's choice award for Best Food Item! Thank you Lakeville and everyone involved in Taste of Lakeville for the opportunity and hospitality!! See you next year! 

Tony Schwimmer, Morgan's on Nicollet

The 2015 Taste of Lakeville event was a great opportunity for us to showcase what we at Morgan’s Farm to Table truly celebrate.  Locally sourced, all natural dairy, cheese, greens, vegetables, beef and pork continues to be our focus. Despite the cool breeze and constant rain, our tidy 10 x 10 piece of real estate at the “Taste” kept us happily serving attendees all evening long.  The continual stream of Lakeville and surrounding community residents gave us a great opportunity to shake hands, share laughter and sample them on one of our most delectable offerings.  Grass-Fed Filet Mignon, served over a warm bed of creamy, onion Risotto, and finished with a smoked-tomato demi-glace evoked more, “M-m-m-m-mmmm’s,” than I can count.  If that wasn’t enough complimentary reaction, the evening was perfectly punctuated by the announcement that Morgan’s farm to table was awarded the “Judge’s Favorite.” I’d like to thank all the Morgan’s employees  who helped to make the “Taste” a truly successful experience, and a heartfelt thank you to our regular clientele who stopped by to say, “Hi.”, and, finally, a warm welcome to all the great people I met who I look forward to inviting into our Morgan’s Farm to Table “home.”                 

Michael Lynch, Morgan’s General Manager


The Morgan's Farm to Table concept is amazing, and that is reflected in their excellent food. I'm also really proud to say that the owners reside in Lakeville and are outstanding community members. Morgan's has my full support! 

Matt Little - Mayor of Lakeville









The Taste of Lakeville is the primary fund raising event for the Lakeville Rotary Club. Proceeds from this event and many of the club's activities go to support a variety of important local and regional initiatives like scholarships, community action, food shelves, parks, and many more.

Bite of Burnsville 2015 - People's Choice and Chef's Choice



Morgan's Farm to Table wins the People's Choice and Chef's Choice at the 2015 Bite of Burnsville! Morgan’s on Nicollet – Farm to Table has carved out a nice niche among restaurants and bars in Burnsville, MN.

What is the Bite of Burnsville? – The Bite of Burnsville is the largest annual fundraising event for the Burnsville Chamber each year. It is a food-tasting event that brings together about 20 of the area’s best rest restaurants. It is open to the public and also includes raffles, a large silent auction, a live auction, and live entertainment.

Who attends the Bite? Anyone is welcome! It’s a mix of Burnsville chamber members, Burnsville community leaders, and the general public.

How are the awards decided? The awards are decided differently per award. The “Chef’s Choice” award is judged by the previous year’s winner. This year, the chefs from Chianti Grill (the 2014 winner) judged each restaurant on their presentation and taste. The “People’s Choice” award is judged by all of the people attending (this year we had around 500 attendees). Each attendee is given one ballot to place in the box of the restaurant for which they feel is their favorite. Generally people decide based on taste.

…”I was very pleased with the Bite of Burnsville attendee’s interest level at the Morgan’s Farm to Table booth. I was so busy dishing samples of our grass fed filet mignon over creamy onion risotto with smoked tomato demi-glace that I barely had time to lift my head and see what else was going on. My ears, however, were wide open – nothing but great feedback and great interaction. Winning the two awards was icing on the cake – or should I say, demi-glace on the fillet!” - Michael Goodman, V.P. of Food and Beverage Operations



"Morgan's hit it out of park at the Burnsville Chamber Bite event.  The new Executive Chef's new 'Farm to table' concept and menu is fresh, delicious and flavorful.  The team at the Bite were enthusiastic and excited.  I loved the filet with risotto.  They won both Chef's Choice and People's Choice, now that's an endorsement."  - Mayor Elizabeth Kautz - Burnsville, MN



"The Bite of Burnsville was simply a wonderful experience; the food, the music, the laughter and the community. I had a wonderful time serving our exquisite grass fed filet mignon over creamy onion risotto with smoked tomato demi-glace, as well as interacting with the community. It was a great opportunity to share not just our food, but also the story about where our food comes from and why the Farm to Table concept is important to us here at Morgan’s Farm to Table. The awards that we received I feel reflect not only the dedication of those employees who were present at the Bite of Burnsville but the entire staff of Morgan’s farm to table who are passionate about our food and our story." - Nathan Metcalf, GM of Morgan's



 "The bite of Burnsville is a great event that brings the members of this beautiful community together to show off all the great delicacies it has to offer.  The Ames Center is the perfect venue with a cozy atmosphere.  When it comes to the food options..I can't say enough good things about Morgan's on Nicollet!!!!  The Risotto was magnificent and the steak was mouth watering.  I already have my spot reserved for next year!!!!" - Jerome Tatum, Fairview Ridges Hospital


“Morgan’s On Nicollet is a first-rate restaurant with delicious, fresh, unique food.  They have an excellent team of people who clearly care about the food they make, the service they deliver, and the atmosphere they create in the restaurant. “ Jina Duchnowski, Burnsville Chamber of Commerce
